Paul Daniels - Rabbit from a Hat

I laughed so hard when that rabbit came rolling out in that jeep. Absolute timeless comedy magic.

Doesn't matter how it was done. Just beautifully performed and entertaining for children.

4:44 the rabbit gets into the hat. Paul had a long career on TV and he was usually entertaining and very inventive. They were good times. He wasn't all that keen on the BBC, like many others, but Paul's patter and personality made him very successful. He was The Man, and he fooled millions for donkeys years. RIP.

Beautiful... This artist was a true magician!!

That's not a rabbit that's a hair. Clever.

when you watch it twice its easy to find out what the misdirection is and how the trick works it doesnt fool you twice .... none the less very entertaining and well performed

Loved his show. And his lovely assistant.

great showmanship!!

Paul was a great magician i watched him growing up as a kid in the 80s. his patter and jokes were brilliant, But i didn't always understand them as a kid but do now as an adult. Well im going to stop now because im rabbiting on !! RIP Paul

RIP paul daniels 1938-2016

Great distraction, loved it he was superb

It's funny yet cute to see the rabbit going in the hat twice

I love this show.

We love Paul Daniels. He's a brilliant magician with a unique comedy style, added to which he's a really nice and interesting person. T.

Ooooh.... I miss those days!

I saw him do a variation of this in 2011 at the Edinburgh festival. He didn’t do the arm going deep into the hat. The table was longer and there was a lot of going back and forth. He pulled a toy rabbit out of the hat a few times. When the sheet dropped you could see the motor which was running the hat back and forth. That was all very good and funny but the finish was beautiful. He was at one end of the table with the toy rabbit and the hat was at the other. He’s talking and then you just heard someone go “oh” from the audience. The real rabbit had popped up in the hat at the other end of the table. Wonderful bit of misdirection, especially for the kids

When the rabbit in the car goes out, the rabbit is placed into the hat from behind the table. Notice how he has the hat against his chest afterwards - subtle and amazing. ^^;

I LOVED the Watership Down reference! <3 (I loved the book)

When I was a kid I was in awe of Paul Daniels

Loved it
