Excellent presentation.   The tricks must be actual magic.

Alan, if you watch the video at 1/4 (0.25) speed during the switcheroo opportunities I think you will see the "how"...but I'd rather believe it's done with "magic".

BTW, if you haven't seen it, watch his video "My Favorite Trick".  A masterly performance of simple, good ol' fashion entertainment.

Sorry for the confusion. "Switcheroo" is slang here for say, an unexpected or even deceptive switching or changing of something (e.g. a person's actions, attitudes, preferences etc). 

In my post I meant his sleight of hand or misdirection at certain parts of his performance that set up the 'magic'.

Alan, this is an oldie but a goodie and this guy is good. The first thing is there's more than 2 balls obviously. Second, once you know what to look for you can see him moving them from hand to hand and in and out of the cups. Watch the video to get a feel for how magicians work. The methods are easy enough as well, moving the balls from hand to hand an in and out from under the cups.

Ryan Hyashi is extra good. Check this out.
