Bears guard Kyle Long has a strong personality on Twitter and loves to joke around with others. On Thursday, Long posted a video of him performing a magic trick that might blow people’s minds.

The Bears guard said he was doing his best Jon Dorenbos, the Philadelphia Eagles long snapper, impression. Dorenbos is known for his magic tricks in the locker room.

Long isn’t a Dorenbos caliber, but his magic trick is still pretty good.

Chicago Cubs' broadcaster Harry Caray sings "Take Me Out To The Ballgame" during the seventh inning stretch at Chicago's Wrigley Field in 1989.

Why did Harry Caray always say ‘Holy Cow?’ It could be linked to a 1930s flying bovine. No bull!
In 1930, a 15-year-old Harry Caray was living in St. Louis when the city hosted an aircraft exhibition honoring aviator Charles Lindbergh. “The ‘first ever’ cow to fly in an airplane was introduced at the exhibition,” said Grant DePorter, Harry Caray restaurants manager. “She became the most famous cow in the world at the time and is still listed among the most famous bovines along with Mrs. O’Leary’s cow and ‘Elsie the cow.’”
