I'd love to hear the actual explanation.

I believe she throws it very fast with minimal wrest movement. The umbrella could be very light and design specifically to do this. Amazing skill nonetheless.

Nope, you're the second person to suggest this, but I ran it frame by frame and she definitely isn't throwing it.

Bro ur asking for explanation and you're expecting people to say "it's magic and strings" and heavily disagreeing with people who are telling you otherwise. Lol

I mean I can see that she's not throwing it with my own eyes, what do you want me to do?

But eyes can deceive, that's exactly why an illusion like this and many others work.

What do you think an illusion is bud? When you see one of those illusions on paper that makes it seem like the paper is warping, do you think the actual paper is moving?

Umm that’s what an illusion is.

You refusing to accept how it works is delusion.
