Blink and you miss it with this magician's trick that has left fans baffled.

Sleight of hand tricks are a serious skill, and one creative magician has got viewers scratching their heads over his trickery.

Magician and comedian Pete Firman is the brains behind the entertainment.

Even more impressively, it takes 26 seconds from start to finish.

Fans have been trying their best to figure out how he does the trick.

Watch the trick below:

Pete starts off with a seemingly normal can of Coke.

He films himself pouring it into a glass to prove it is real.

Next, he rips the ring-pull from the top of the can, then places it in his hand and puts the can on top.

After the essential mystical click of the fingers, the ring-pull flicks back onto the can and reconnects itself.

People rushed to the comment section expressing their delight and surprise at the trick.

Some people made guesses about what it was, too.

One hedged their bets with: “Magnets.”

Another said: “Can you still do it with the Coke in the can? Or is it essential to the trick?”

Someone else noted: “Anyone asking how he did that... The question isn’t how, the question is when.”

Others were more blunt, calling him a "scary witch".

Any ideas how it was done?
