just for fun, I converted the c4 f5 c6 e6 from hexadecimal to decimal. I got 196.245.198.230 It does look like an ip address when you add the dots. If you notice, none of the three digit numbers are over 255 which is true to ip addresses and the limit of "FF" which is decimal 255. This ip address is assigned to a location in Budapest Hungary. ip addresses won't go to a specific website (correct me if I am wrong, I am sure there are exceptions) but to locations and devices. I don't think this fits to the clues, but I am throwing it out there for thought. If anyone is bored or ambitious, this can easily be converted to binary also, but at this time I don't see a use for that.

Black flames were a type of enchanted fire used in the sixth obstacle of the defences surrounding the Philosopher's Stone during the 1991–1992 school year. After entering the chamber, purple flames sealed off the entrance, while black flames blocked the exit. Only by solving Severus Snape's potions riddle could one leave the room. The bottle on the far left contained a potion that allowed the drinker to pass unharmed through the flames and proceed to the final chamber where the Philosopher's Stone was kept.[1] copied this from the harry potter wiki. I will have to dig out my book and verify it. I'm pretty sure it's not in the movie. Love this collusion, (sharing of ideas) now we are getting some ideas flowing. The game is afoot! So I just finished reviewing the last part of "hp and the philosophers stone". I am more convinced than ever we are on the right track with the sorcerers stone. The two locations of the stone after harry travels through the black flame are the mirror of erised, and then it ends up in harry potter's pocket. After that, Dumbledore and Nicolas Flamel destroy it. I am thinking the mirror of erised is the answer we are looking for.

Paul Bunyan could be a rabbit hole we kind of went down as a group, even though it feels like it fits.
The exception is the "surprise fortune" which I can't make sense of either.

going on my theory that the 3 pieces of the key are a web address WWWNow does that look like the fingers of a glove to you? The same thought had crossed mind. Since we might have www and // which are markings for spares in bowling?
I think whoever gets the website or first key first, should have an easy time with the 2nd key.

I think a lot of these answers on the piano tunes are great, but I have to point out a small but important error. If you go from middle c to f to the next c to e you may get a lot of these tunes, but c4 to f5 is a jump of 10 whole notes, which I don't think a lot of these aforementioned tunes are taking into account.

I like this alphanumeric line, especially the C4 for explode. I was drawing complete blanks on that one.

being originally from Wisconsin and having lived in Michigan, I have played a lot of Euchre. I'll keep that in mind when looking at clues. I'm excited that we are getting some conversation going. This is what I enjoy the most.

In the video I see several prominent books, games, etc. featured. I would like to get a list started. In the stanza 6 category I mentioned a chemical symbol as being a possible part of a stanza 6 solve. I just noticed today there was a chemistry book on the shelf.
Could we work together on compiling a list of what's on their.
I see
parchesi catan chemistry book music book bounce off code book
Please add to this list.

I can't resist going down this rabbit hole in reply to the solarpons comment......
101010 is 42 in Binary coded decimal. And according to the book/movie "a hitchhikers guide to the galaxy", 42 is everything.

To get some conversation going, I am posting this. I am not sure of this one, but I don't think it's a complete rabbit hole journey.
I like all the turkey in bowling thoughts. When you score a turkey in bowling, it is marked XXX on the score sheet. when you convert these on a phone alpha-numeric keypad you get 999.
I am thinking the first key is a 10 digit phone number.

Me either, but it may flow into the next verse where gold is 79 giving 4 digits 8279.

82 is the number for lead on the periodic table. 82 may be the solution, but I am not as sure about this part.
