Penn and Teller - Fool Us S01E02

[981sfa]

The dice was fake, but Ross still put the phones in the envelopes and put the stickers on...

[pulmonaryarchery88]

@981sfa he felt all the bags, and could tell which one had wossys phone in it from the weight, then picked his dice accordingly

[marknoblewestham]

it was a white handkerchief!

[TheSeanoftheBread]

I need to go back and study magic again, so I can figure out what they're doing

[AstOnokReviews]

teller's dropped jaw makes me happy :D

[PassTheMarmalade1957]

@blanknot I think it was just a die that didn't have a number 1 on it.

[blanknot]

How do you make it so a die never lands on 1? This couldn't have been something he prepped beforehand either, because Ross put the numbers on the envelope at random. I'm guessing he stuck something on the die when he put it in the box. Was it a magnet?

[TheCinemaJudge]

I am hearing House M.D's opening music when the 2nd act starts his trick

[Berelore]

@TheCinemaJudge

Yes but it's the beginning of the full song which is why the vocals are there.

[mageskull]

42:54 , part of the trick revealed? ^.^

[beto42a]

that akward moment when your silent partner tells you to shut up

First time I heard Teller talk: Tonight, February 12, 2012.

Oh yeah, there was a trick in there somewhere too wasn't there?

[lenmetallica]

Teardrop!

[MassimoOstolidi]

Daniel Madison Deal from the bottom he placed the set of cards after Penn shuffled the card well i think but it's really strong !

[bec4hockey]

lol i kinda wanna see "young and strange" now xD



[TakeLoveX3]

the first guy was a straight out liar, totally ruined his own image by trying to be big and great. lame.

[deadfisheater]

Oh my god it's A! I'm going to Vegas!

[oncayiv]

i really enjoy the classy way Penn lets the people know who fail that he knows, but he wont give up their secret. Lets them keep going in the line of work.

[incinerator1016]

the move Madison does he teaches on a dvd buts its impossibly hard. thats all ill say.

[GreenGearMood]

20:03

[bromordra]

Hmm . . the big box trick. My first guess, in light of Penn's 'big secret'/'we alone couldn't do it' comments makes me think there are more than two performers involved. I'm thinking Strange is two twins. Maybe Young too. I'm probably dead fucking wrong.

[Wickerbasket]

@bromordra I think you're right, actually. The question "Could we do that trick." means it's something outside skill.

[bromordra]

@Wickerbasket Exactly. There has to be outside help of some kind, and twins works perfectly.

[bollitz]

is that the theme song of House when bich was doing his trick? haha

[Rhuarc224]

19:05 just the look on teller's face! haha, that was the best trick ever!

[masktuxedo77]

Penn and Teller were so happy when they see the box in Bich's trick :)

[RickBigDickJones]

The little "hesitation" he does at 31:59 is so that he can drop off the excess cards that he had. He must have had the 5 extra cards ready, so that would make 58 cards. He is so good about the amount of times he supposedly drops off a card. I counted and he had "53" cards. Good sleight of hand.

[evejunkie1942]

@RickBigDickJones That's not actually part of it. He had just gotten to the last card and ditched the remainder because it would've been silly to rifle through 5 cards after he'd already dealt out his hand.

[kozmon0t]

How the French guy did it: the ball was switched with a fake ball by a trained monkey after Penn threw it to the first woman. As the woman threw the fake ball, the monkey rolled the real one through a hole under the stage and up a ramp to rest behind the card table. Inside the ball were 52 decks of cards, cleverly concealed by mirrors to look like 2 decks. Then he switched the deck in the box with one of those 52 decks.

Either that, or those people saw something besides cards in the ball.

[ImperiousViking]

The guy who claimed he was a really lucky guy, wasn't so lucky when God was handing out good looks...

[CharmsLithe]

@ImperiousViking He's lovely. There's no reason to be rude about his looks. He's there to do magic, not to be pretty.

[ImperiousViking]

@CharmsLithe

I gruess you're right...

[CharmsLithe]

@ImperiousViking I am.

[ImperiousViking]

@CharmsLithe

Indeed

[adcrisafii]

@ImperiousViking he looked amazing cunt

[ImperiousViking]

@adcrisafii

I know :P

Hi did look like an amazing cunt xP

[Mac1634]

@ImperiousViking Guess you were missing when God gave out courtesy and social grace, huh?

[ImperiousViking]

@Mac1634

it's a joke, lighten up, sourcream.

[logansrun1980]

@ImperiousViking That's if you believe in a god so capricious that it would make people ugly on a whim.

[ImperiousViking]

@logansrun1980

Well the god of the bible is a bit of a douche. Killing Job's wife and kids, just because he had a bet with the devil.

So I think he would make people ugly on a whim :P

[bokuwaninjadesu]

OH MY LAWD TELLER TALKED!!!

[kalloused]

Penn Imediately found the eye holes in the blind fold for the third trick when he asked him to inspect it, lol

[Zerokaiszer]

@kalloused

Lol, there are no eye holes. You're completely wrong

[kalloused]

@Zerokaiszer Yeah I wrote that before I figured out how he did the trick. I'm glad you feel better about yourself

[wygram]

mathieu bich's trick might be one of the coolest ones i've seen. Soo good. And his act with guessing what they'd think, and having No ready was brilliant. and the music was excellent.. basically, i'm stunned.

[yoitsallgood]

for mathieu bich the song that was playing for him during his card trick sounds like the opening for house hahaha

[Xenolark]

@yoitsallgood it was

[tornadokick16]

@yoitsallgood It is the opening for House.

It's the original that contains the lyrics. I love it.

[caseygtr]

I loved the act at the end

[hawaiidispenser]

For the first guy, I think there are subtle differences in how he wrote "Random" on every envelope, so that he can identify the last env when he looks over, which will be the one that will receive the host's phone. Once he sees which number sticker is assigned to that env, he plants a special die in the box that does not contain that specific number and thus will never come up.

[EGarrett01]

I figured out how the guy did the blindfold fresh deck royal flush...well, if I didn't figure it out then I figured out a very easy way to do it that fits with the movements he made.

[Dagens24]

@EGarrett01 When he brings his right hand up at 31:13, he has his flush palmed. He adds it to the bottom of the deck. If you looks very closely you can see the cards to line up perfectly at first until she shifts the deck. Then he deals from the top for the cards he doesn't want and then very subtley deals from the bottom when he's 'found' one of the cards he wants. Technically speaking it's not that complicated but it was a VERY impressed slight of hand.

[Nogoals92]

@Dagens24 i knew that was the move but i couldnt see it, he definitely owned it

[Mac1634]

@Dagens24 That makes no sense. Logically you can't have a flush palmed with a deck of cards that isn't yours. There are so many different brands and types of playing cards that the chance that the random deck given to you matches the cards you have palmed is too low to work.

[Dagens24]

@Mac1634 Regardless, that is how the trick is done. If you watch closely you can see him add his flush to the bottom and also see him deal from the bottom. How he had the right type of cards? Who knows. Maybe he saw the type of cards they had before hand, maybe he requested a specific brand, maybe he has a lot of flushes of different brands/types in his pockets. No way to know really, but the technique I am putting forth as an explanation is 100% correct.

[rmcbeigh]

@Mac1634 the second I knew the deck was going to have cards added to it is when he said put the deck in my hand face DOWN... I looked over and over at this and didnt see what he did ...but when his hands are down behind the table he could have had the cards in a secret pocket on his pants?

[drdeveril]

Cool! Thanks for putting this up.

[Simetra666]

The look on Teller's face when that guy shows him the card is amazing.

[steampunkerella]

that text message contest was hilariously easy

[pandamanana]

First. Amazing show.
