[[caption-width-right:350:Those horns look familiar.]]''Walking the Planes'' is a web video series created by Nathan Holt and Shawn Kornhauser. The series follows professional Magic: The Gathering tournaments around the world and makes a comedic documentary-style video. The two shot a video at Pro Tour Philadelphia in 2011 before successfully getting a Website/{{Kickstarter}} to make another video at that year's World Championships. Since then, Creator/WizardsOfTheCoast have commissioned them to make at least one video for (and between) each Pro Tour.

* TVTelephoneEtiquette: Gerry Thompson on the phone to Nathan, both skip the formalities.

* NoBigDeal: Happens from time to time when talking to accomplished players. For example, when interviewing Kai Budde, the most successful competitive Magic player:
--> ''Here's a list of cities in which you've [Kai] won a premier-level Magic tournament: Vienna, Amsterdam, Barcelona (twice), Tokyo, New York, [[LongList Cape Town, Chicago (twice), New Orleans, Lisbon, Antwerp, Osaka, Sydney, Boston, and Madrid]]. My question is why so few? [...] [[SarcasmMode You should be ashamed of yourself]].''

---> '''Owen Turtenwald''': The guy goes "Hey don't you hate it when people say 'good luck'? When deep down you just want them to mull to five, get mana screwed, and just win?" [...] And then he opens up his hand and mulligans, and then his next hand and mulligans, and I'm like "Dude that's karma, you were asking for it."
