Magician Andy Gross has gone around scaring people by pretending that he has had his body cut in half.

He sneaks up on unsuspecting people just lying on a bench in a park or walking. This clip was uploaded at the beginning of the month, but it is going viral once more.

*User discretion is advised as the clip includes potentially shocking images. The video, uploaded under user walkingtalltogether has garnered over 1.1 million views.

If this illusion teaches us anything, it is that teenagers are less likely to get scared by a man with no legs or torso. It is as if they have already seen too many horror movies to even care.

Adults, however, run away, scream and more than one of those featured in the clip falls down upon noticing Gross.
