FIREINTRO Inventing my own curse!
Now, on the 16the of July 2009, Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince was released.
Now, the movie glazed over quite a lot of stuff... I mean look at the size of the book... of course
they glazed over a LOT of stuff There's no way they could have
included everything, but, that said, they did include one spell that I'd like to mention.
And it's called... SECTUMSEMPRA!
Now, I'm not going to talk in depth about Sectumsempra in this video.
I'm planning on doing another video about that, maybe just before Halloween,
and when it's done, I'll link it just up here... But, before we get to that, I just wanted to
mention how the spell Sectumsempra came about in the first place...
Snape invented it! Except that in the movie, as opposed
to the book... it's kinda skipped over... Understandably, I guess.
So clearly... in the Harry Potter Universe, it is possible to create
or invent curses, but it's not necessarily easy. And in fact,
in the book, it said that Snape had great difficulty in getting it right.
Well, if that's the case, let's invent our very own curse.

I'm about to teach you, and while you do that, let's roll the title sequence, because it's all
coming up... right after this...
Yeah! Hello, Welcome back to Real World Magic,
where we make your life more magical. My name's Neil Trigger, I'm going to be your magical host,
and in today's video, I'm going to show you how to invent your very own, REAL Harry Potter curse!
Now, the curse I'm going to invent is kinda gonna be a bit of a weird one, because I'm quite odd.
So let's cast a curse that makes the victim's life really SURREAL!
Now, if you've been on my livestreams before, you'll have seen a talking elephant
and some pretty random stuff. And I studied surrealism film at college and university,
so I do know a little bit about surrealism... probably not a surprise to some of you!
But, how can we start with inventing this surrealist curse?
Well, first of all we need to pick a latin sounding word... so to make someone surreal,
let's just call it "Surreal-o" and see what happens with that.
Let's just grab a magic wand... I think Hermione's wand might be quite good for this one.
So we'll grab Hermione's wand and we'll say the word and just see what happens. Bare in mind,
we might need to tweak it a little bit. Let's first cast the spell at this figure
of Snape that we used up in this video here, and see what happens.
1, 2, 3, Surreal-o! Hmm...
Okay, so that's not terrible... But I think we do need a little bit more.
It's not quite surreal enough... I guess you probably predicted something weird
like that might happen. We want things to be long-lasting too... and properly weird!
Let's try thinking of something really surreal and just see what happens.
Let's keep the word the same for now. 1,2,3... Surreal-o!
Okay, so that's a little bit better. Thinking of surreal stuff might help
a little bit... It's maybe not quite as predictable as the one before, so that's good.
How about switching up the word now, just a little bit?
If we change it to the word "Surrellio", then it sounds a bit more wizardly... maybe we can
be able to get the effects to last a little bit longer, and maybe even... a little bit weirder!
Let's try it out on an inanimate object like this first... let's just point the
wand like this, and go... 1,2,3... Surrellio!
And, as you can see... the object is in a constant state of surreal flux,
and that's exactly what we need it to be. Next, I think we need to try it out on a live person,
and since we can't actually subject anyone to this curse... At least not do it legally... yet...
We need to experiment on myself... So wish me luck!
remember to think of something really surreal...
1,2,3... Surrellio! [Beep]

Now, if you're a chicken, and the beetles don't mind too much,
remember to pickle your spanners in a large glass jar, and squeeze the carpet until it shrieks.
