A new magician could learn a lot about misdirection from just that one video. Watch how he lowers his glove and his non-game-ball-holding hand at the same time, but makes eye contact with the ladies behind so that they stop following the ball. Then he brings up the non-game-ball and the ladies' persistence principle tells their brain it's the same ball: and why wouldn't it be? It looks the same! Just like a playing card or a box or a ring can look the same if that's what your audience is expecting.
