"how to pull a rabbit out of a hat" theory the person is a test subject being held against their will. the announcers are part of a secret team of scientists investigating the strange properties of the rabbit and the hat, and are giving the test subject instructions through an intercom. the announcers and test subject are all speaking from a script rather than speaking freely, hence their unusually rhythmic and rhymey speech. if the test subject says the wrong thing, something strange will happen, possibly caused by the hat, or energy radiated from it. for example, saying "thanks for that" caused the test subject in the video to be transported to an infinite barren wasteland. the goal of the team is to continue the magic trick with the right words until some undisclosed endpoint; each time a test subject is compromised, the scientists change the part of the script that caused the event and bring in the next test subject with the edited script, repeating this process until they eventually get it right. as for the hat, it is possible that it has existed for millions, if not billions, of years, before rabbits, hats, or the universe even existed, and/or may be a manifestation of black magic brought here from a magical realm. reading through this page it seems like this wasn't really your intention and you were going for something more allegorical, but, do you think it at least makes sense?
yes
