This cheerleader’s ‘invisible box’ trick will leave you confused...and anxious to try it

TEXAS — What is this internet wizardry??!!!

Twitter user Ariel Olivar (@arielo1220) is baffling viewers all over the world  with her 'invisible box' trick. The 16-year-old cheerleader from Manvel High School in Texas appears to defy gravity by patting an invisible box and then 'stepping' onto it.

Olivar tells ABC13 she decided to try it after being egged on by the rest of her squad.

"I like challenges. I am very much for them, so I was like, 'I can do it.'"

The video has been retweeted more than 137,000 times.

"I had no idea it would ever get this big," Ariel said. "I am speechless."

As mind blowing as it looks, she isn’t the first to try it. A football player at Anderson University in Indiana posted a video of how to do it back in August.

But Olivar does give the trick a little more oomph by pretending to trip over the box and face planting on the ground.
