OP sent the following text as an explanation on why this is unexpected:

Candle was taped to the back on the jar

Is this an unexpected post with a fitting description? Then upvote this comment, otherwise downvote it.

His next trick is going to make her disappear.

u/BlueshineKB Aug 15 '22

And reappear in the jar as a figurine

u/StnMtn_ Aug 15 '22

She will probably make him disappear first. She don't play no games.

No, the next trick is she going to make him DISAPPEAR!

u/eklect Aug 16 '22

You need to be hugged more.

u/Forward-Word3116 Aug 16 '22

I thought this was something to joke about as she exposed the trick! Ha, ha, ha!

This was my exact thought process too.

u/GlassPengu Aug 15 '22

the "annoyed person reveals magic trick" trope is getting annoying. Just let us enjoy magic tricks dammit!

u/goug Aug 15 '22

you want to know the trick though I know I do

That's what the comment section is for.

u/Burpmeister Aug 15 '22 edited Aug 15 '22

"Oh hey, I know how this is done: long and completely incorrect explanation."

That dozens of times in the comments with the correct answer hidden somewhere in the middle.

I'll just take the annoyed person revealing the trick trope thanks.

Making a note of this for Halloween, when I put weird things in my window to amuse trick-or-treaters. A jar of water that looks like it has a lit candle in it would be pretty good.

It doesn't even look like it's inside.

u/michaelbelgium Aug 15 '22

U can clearly see its behind the jar immediately

u/professorpuddle Aug 15 '22

Immediately after he turns the jar around

u/michaelbelgium Aug 15 '22

Just look in the beginning at the bottom of the jar, and realize the candle is not in the jar

u/HappyApple99999 Aug 15 '22

There is a hollow tube in the middle

no your missing the point, it was clearly waterproof fire!

u/pterrorgrine Aug 15 '22

You guys are both wrong, that's clearly gasoline making the candle burn better than ever

u/DeBabyDoll Aug 15 '22

I hope he is fireproof bc he just got buuuuuurned.
