YouTube user Magic of Rahat has posted a video that is not so much related to magic as it is to trickery, imagination and decent technical abilities when it comes to handling smartphones.

The trick posted above is the “Imaginary Friend Photo Prank” and it basically entails having a smartphone and a friend that is willing to pose with you for a basic shot.

In this case, the star of the clip asks people to take a photo of him and an invisible friend on a Hollywood Walk of Fame star in L.A. For whatever reason, he chooses Kevin Costner's star for this experiment.

A tourist is asked to take the shot, then gets to see one captured before in the exact same position, in which the “model” actually is accompanied by his now not-so-imaginary friend.
