Don't know how he does the first and last one but the middle trick you see the bloke in the black coat move over to the the bloke in the white shirt and that is when I reckon he would have walked out.

You have to always wonder if the audience is staged too either way the tricks looked cool.

for the last one, at 3:59 you can see he seemingly throws the phone into his jacket and his right hand is empty.

if you look at 4:00 I reckon the black jacket guy with glasses is his assistant, as a bottle is being carefully concealed around the back of that guys thigh. A rather unnatural stance to me.  Look back at about 3:53 and I reckon that is when the bottles got switched.

Some smooth work.

Middle one is a switch-a-roo he hid behind the bloke in the white shirt and his mate concealed him and the double popped up from the crowd on the other side of the glass.
Luke has it on the last one, the 'trick' is to stop a unsuspecting passerby who has the same bottle as the trick one, he puts his left hand down and the assistant puts the phone in the bottle and he palms the fake phone up his sleeve. Result punters phone in bottle, well done though

Amazing stuff!  You are right about the middle one.  Two guys indoors in full black jackets when everyone outside is in t-shirts.  They are obviously part of the illusion.
