  • Apparently 23 people have, indeed, been injured by aluminum foil balls, if the "like/unlike" count is to be believed...

  • If I was a billionaire I wouldn't give that woman her money back.

  • $85...

  • Maybe Penn should have had her throw the ball as hard as she wanted at his face. Perhaps that would have shut her pie hole.

    That being said, it's not like an aluminum ball COULDN'T do damage. Had there been a sharp crumple it could have pinged the eye ball and injured her. But pretty low odds there. We can't live indoors all our lives.

  • Lol AMV your a joke.

  • It was a WOMAN, Penn. She was ENTITLED. Her 'experience' was not perfect. The little aluminium foil ball was thrown by a MAN!!! (tm). You are fortunate that she didn't dial 911 and have some cops turn up for a game of Let's you and them fight. You'd be trying to juggle with Mace in your eyes and your hands cuffed behind your back.

  • Yeh in we have having a saying in Australia that fixes this problem. HARDEN THE F*CK UP

  • Yeh in we have having a saying in Australia that fixes this problem. HARDEN THE FUCK UP

  • I would have asked for the aluminum ball back, and then beamed her with it.

  • While watching this video I was hit by a ball of aluminum foil.

  • she mad

  • Its as if she picked the bug out of her salad, ate the salad and then wanted her money back.

  • That's ridiculous.

    I would've just asked Penn to sign the goddamned ball.

  • She probably wasn't even actually hit.

  • That's funny. Because I think most of us have had an encounter with a person like that.

  • Some people just have to be cunts, you know?

  • A full refund for getting hit with a piece of tin foil? Penn is too nice.

  • Penn, do you see the irony of your posted video? Still love you, but you're coming off as a bigger whiner that glasses broad. Remember, "He who gives up the most wins". Great quote BTW.

  • She was just an old bitty.

  • Hi Penn fans. Penn Says videos have been discontinued, so you won't be seeing any new content on here. You can check out our Profile on our Channel Page for more info. We'll still be checking in, so hope to keep chatting with you all! Thanks!

  • geez, whine whine whine whine whine

  • What a dumb bitch!!!

  • Hey, it's America. The customer is always right. She deserved her money back but even more she deserved a great big Fuck You. It sounds like she got both.

  • Am I the only one that found it ridiculously amusing that the bitch woman said "I was distracted" because she was hit in the face with the aluminum foil ball that Penn throws when he says "this is not juggling, this is distraction?"

  • @myself Okay, so upon having a later epiphany, I realized that doesn't make sense, and re-watched the video of them on The View (which, btw, I hate you both forever for going on that show and NOT slapping at *least* 2 of those women), and he does indeed say "misdirection." Durr. I swear though I have seen them do their version of cups and balls and he says "distraction." Whatever. The basic point of misdirection is to distract your attention somewhere else, so it still works. Lol.

  • @tehlinebeginstoblur You do not want to get in a slap fight with Walters. :-)

  • next time, ask if they need a diaper change

  • $85 for a show?

  • Big spectical shows usually cost that much money. I mean this isnt a movie your seeing. Its an entire production.

  • I saw you attached a video response from Joey Petroni. Is this guy one of your friends? I cant figure out if he is for real or just a you tube act. I will tell you this whole alligator attack is really sick if its true.

  • The commercial at the beginning of this video clip ruined the whole thing. I want my money back.

  • I was in Vegas a couple of weeks ago, and I got to see the Penn and Teller show. It was the highlight of my trip. During their performance, they threw out several small items and gave other things to people who participated. I thought it clever of Penn and Teller to give so much away during their show. I remember (this sounds crazy) being jealous of the people who got an aluminum foil ball. Anyone can buy memorabilia, but only three people a show get a foil ball. You're right Penn, you won.

  • WTF.

  • lol. fuck that bitch

  • What a bitch lol. I'd let you throw aluminum balls at my face all day.

  • You know weather or not she was distracted or Penn isnt telling the whole story, Listen! He didnt break her glasses, she didnt loose perminant vision here!

    People get so irrational "TO OFTEN", & sometime when you spend your money you may not get your full dollar. You know I understand that money is tight but hey when you go to a live show, you have to understand that things like that can happen. If she doesnt like it, I hear they dont hit you in the face with tin foil while watching TV!!

  • I agree. This bitch needs to stay at home and watch on TV.

  • Ok this story does sound weird and inexplicable. It makes me think there is more to it than she told Penn or that Penn was missing something. Like maybe the ball hit her and forced her glasses into her eyes. Or that her companions gave her an endless teasing about it and that ruined the experience for her. Or that she was already having a bad day and that made it worse. Even in America, people aren't that touchy.

  • all jokes aside, when stuff like that happens it can be horrible and ruin the whole experience, like when someone talks during a movie or fidgets during an exam.

  • I would have wanted you to kiss it and make it better.

  • I'd just tell all my friends that Penn threw his balls at my face.

  • wow.. what a bitch!

    btw~ most cats love rolled up alminum foil

  • omg ,,,,,,what a bunch of idiots.

  • Penn-someone threw disc 1 of the latest DVD set of Bullshit at me and it distracted me. Refund, NOW.

  • Your comment distracted me. Refund now!

  • Penn I am that woman you hit and I am very upset that you posted this video about me.

    Ha. I'm just kiddin.

  • We are done here. If you're going to troll, I'm not going to bother arguing with you. One cannot win an argument with a troll, as the troll has no desire to be logically consistent.

  • You still don't get it. Proper scientific studies require the use of controls, and they require removing the influence of all external variables.  Ceteris paribus my friend.

  • I've never made any positive claim. There is no burden of proof on me because I've never made any positive claim, I've just questioned the veracity of your claim. I never said that white people are more generous than other racial demographics, nor have I said that white people are generous in any significant way.

  • It's not empirical evidence. The fact that you see some white people stealing wi-fi means absolutely nothing. You need to have much tighter controls in order to understand the relevance of the data and prevent the possibilities of selection and confirmation bias.

  • You don't really understand the difference between anecdotal evidence and valid statistical evidence, do you? Also, I'm sure you have documented evidence that ALL white people shop at Wal-Mart and only at Wal-Mart, don't you?

    Also, I have wireless internet at home, and so I don't really need to go to coffee shops to leach off of their wi-fi. I think I've been in coffee shops maybe three times in my entire life. So no, I'm not an example of such a white person.

  • What flawed logic? You've not provided anything more than anecdotal evidence and bold assertions. You have not provided any links to peer-reviewed studies or any meta-analysis of such studies. You have failed to prove your assertion in the any sense whatsoever.  I simply pointed this out.

    Where exactly have I made flawed logical assertions?

  • So you're not actually going to respond to my point then? Thanks.

    Although I do find it ironic that you accuse ME of being the one who lacks an understanding of logic when it is your posts which a filled with faulty statistical reasoning, sweeping generalizations, ad hominems, and red herrings. Yeah, I'm the illogical one here.

  • I suppose I could have enclosed part of it in quotations, but there is nothing wrong with beginning a sentence with a subordinate clause.

    Still this has absolutely nothing to do with the content of my post. I made a debatebly poor stylistic choice in how I wrote my post. This in no way refutes the content of said post.

    On a side note, I do find it funny how you're calling a math and physics dual major that got 5's on the AP Calculus I and II tests and a 5 on the AP Chem exam a "retard."

  • Grammar is the rules for how a language is used. Grammar has absolutely nothing to do with the way words are spelled. Also, the very fact that you think a misspelling makes my point irrelevant is rather telling. Do you know nothing at all about basic logic? Logic is more important than spelling. In fact, it is the basis for everything. Spelling a single word incorrectly does not invalidate a point. In fact, you can spell every word in a sentence wrong and still have a valid point.

  • Now, are you going to continue dodging my point by bringing up irrelevant ad hominems or are you going to actually respond to it?

    I'm not holding my breath.

  • Clarance Thomas is white?

    Also, that there are white people who are cheap therefore all white people are cheap does not a valid argument make. Learn some basic philosophy of logic.

  • What I love is how Penn laughs at himself messing up at juggling at the beginning. Honest, and sincere.

  • That lady with the glasses sums up what I fucking hate about a lot of people.

  • I fucked that woman after your show, i have 2 prosthetic aluminum balls in place of my testicles and She claimed after she orgasmed that my balls ruined the whole fuck for her also.

  • HAHAHA OMG THATS PERFECT!!

  • LOL What a jerk.

    Hey Crackle, I like watching Penn Says here rather than the website due to all the constant bitching from the comments. You should disable them.

    At least the people who watch Penn on youtube are actual FANS and not miserable haters obsessed with mocking him.

    Thanks!!!

  • Nope nope... *I* hate him!

  • this video has the best thumbnail ever lol

  • LOL anyone is "bitter" compared to penn. Not many people would have had penn's reaction.

  • Now that's bullshit! I like the jazz singers response best xD

  • what a friggin TWAT!

  • What an asshole bitch.

    (Assholius-Bitchacockus)

  • Penn is wearing glasses in this video. It's ruining the whole video.

  • you should saw her in half

  • damn u crackle/sony release these vids worldwide!!!!

  • Penn is used to paying hookers.

  • Joey Petroni has a video Magic Show Disaster right here on You Tube. I think he is mocking the woman who was hit by the tin foil ball. Penn you ROCK! Love all of you video's!

  • Look at it this way, Penn. For a mere $85, you got to ruin this sourpuss's night. Go you!

  • women, you can't live with them, and you can't fit more than 3 in the trunk

  • Do we have to have this Army propaganda ruin the ambiance? How 'bout puttin' that stuff in gun videos, or AT LEAST at the end of the video. By the way, are tax dollars paying for the ad?

  • HAHAHAHAHA I wish you could have taken a photo of this lady and posted it. She'd be haunted her whole life with reminders of what a cunt she is. I mean, bitter lady.

  • She probably figures did her bit of "magic" and got a free show.

    There's that 1% you can never make happy.

  • You should have offered to buy her a really HOT cup of coffee. From a different venue, of course.

  • oh some people you have to wonder whats really bothering them

  • Good work Penn. The Customer is always right, even when they're wrong. She wasn't asking for much, if she was so unhappy she felt the need to pull a bonehead move like this, you did the right thing by comping her.

  • she should have been honored to have been in some small way a part of the show. what a twat.

  • i'm no cheapskate, but jesus penn, if I had a bug in my salad, you can bet your balls, i'm getting that mothefucker for free.

    A salad is far cry from an 85 dollar ticket to a las vegas show however.

    She sounds like a bitch

  • This is the best kind of Penn says. Less about Penn and more about Penn's take on the human condition.

  • people are amazing - I think a foil ball would have to fly into someone's actual eye to cause a problem . . . our society is so self centered now . . .

  • Face the reality that you're a douchebag and you won't need to troll anymore.

  • Ah, yes. I work in a movie theater and we get folks like that all the time. A few per day, actually. It doesn't matter what, somehow they will find cause to complain. The tiniest little thing makes people crazy. Usually someone in your position of celebrity gets to see the best in people. I saw you guys in Atlanta in 2002, and you were brilliant. Thanks for being so kind with your fans.

  • I can't believe some people are so flippin' self-centered... but yes I can. Jerks like that are depressingly common.

  • I have seen your show 12 times. Teller once splashed me with water during the miser's dream bit. I demand my money back!

    Seriously, you guys are the most giving performers to your fans of any I have seen. Some people will just take advantage of the generosity looking for a free be.

  • I've seen your show 12 times. Teller once splashed me with some water during the Miser's dream bit. I demand all my money back.

    Seriously, some people will do anything for a freebe. You guys are among the most giving to your fans of any celebrity performers I have ever seen.

  • lol some people can just bitch about anything. Terrible

  • I got to see your show last month and my girlfriend described me as 'giddy' when I got to meet you...

    That said, I would've been ecstatic if one of those aluminum balls hit me in the face. Haha.

  • And there are millions of these people everywhere, demanding to get what they are 'owed'...and seeing nothing wrong with it. It will never change, but that make the fact that they exist suck any less.

  • I was at a magic show once and I got hit with a medium size asteroid right in the tectonic plates. I didn't mind at first until I found out that it wiped out all the dinosaurs and then I was seriously upset. I'm still trying to get my money back, or at least some dinosaur DNA in an amber chunk.

  • Didn't WWII start over an aliminum foil ball?

  • Some people love to weasel their way into FREEBIES no matter what it takes. It's an addiction and it's unhealthy.

  • You're a fucking idiot. I hope you're trolling - I'm very sorry if you're serious. Die in a fire.

  • I'd bet a dollar that she wasn't even hit.

  • Jeez, I would have been excited to have been hit in the eyes with foil balls by Penn! But I give double thumbs up to Jonsey (Jonezy?) for being bitter to this idiot, cause she deserves every bit of it.

  • This woman sounds like she may be mentally compromised in some way. I'm being serious.

  • Sure it's funny, but not if you were the one that was hit with the foil.

  • Penn, I would have been THRILLED to be hit in the eye with your balls! HELL! I would have picked up your balls, and ask you to autograph them after the show! Fuck! Such an ungreatful lady! ;-)

  • Should have just told her to fuck off. Giving her the money back just reinforces the nutty behavior.

  • Next time, juggle shot-puts.

  • Penn's raining down aluminum death! :-p

  • lolz

  • LOL She's a nutbag! Revision: A greedy nutbag.

  • I hope she sees this video.

  • haha some people are just fragile like that...the slightest thing shits on their entire parade

  • I loved the show first off and it would be an honor to get hit by the ball you threw

    p.s. i just saw the vatican bullshit and it was amazinggg

    penn and teller rule

  • Thanks for all the comments guys. Keep 'em coming - we love hearing from you!

  • Love hearing from us, unless we're unfairly censored, and speak up about it.

  • Stupid lady. That lady should NEVER come to Vegas again. Vegas does not want whiners like that. Send them to a place where they can whine all they want like Reno or Fresno or Bakersfield.

  • Aren't you being just as racist as you assume all white people are?

  • Just you talking about the tin foil ball upset me so much...free tickets please!

  • Some people...

  • white conservatives generate all the nation's wealth. they pay well more than their fair share. read an economics book--that is, if you can handle polysyllables.

  • Don't know why this reminds me of a scene from "Twelve Angry Men" when the guy is throwing paper balls at the fan and it hits the old man, and he says, "That was a stupid thing to do"....

  • Penn, next time I'm in Vegas and go to your show, I'm going to paint a target on my face. PLEASE HIT ME! An aluminum ball from one of your tricks would be a stellar souvenir!

  • Some people should just be put down...

  • it's not that we're cheap... we just have sense enough to not go out and spend our money on spinning rims and "grills"

  • Penn: you should really think of making this some 45 second expirement on a future Bullshit! episode.

  • LOL! that is too funny! We get people here at work that get upset by the smallest thing and threaten to talk to the Mayor. (We are a city agency!)

  • So because she's white, she's cheap? Have you no sense of culture? Have you ever been to say texas near the border, or Florida? You'll quickly learn that if any one race should be labeled as the "cheap" one it won't be whites.

    If there's any one thing we can all agree on, it's that you're a toolbag.

  • You knocked the entire fucking earth of its axis with that tinfoil ball Penn, you fucking bastard.

  • Use magic and make that bitch go to the corn field.

  • You shouldn't have given her money back. Fuck her.

  • Penn I was watching this video and a photon particle hit my glasses went through the lenses and into my eye, it totally made the whole show for me, thanks!

  • lmao..youre doing it wrong..youre supposed to get free tix to there show in vegas!

  • Well to be honest I was hoping he would read it, find it hilarious and offer me a free trip to Vegas, tickets to the show and dinner that night with both him and Teller. I probably would have a better chance of getting that if I were hit by a tinfoil ball. lol

  • I agree. Fuck her!

    PLEASE: Have Penn watch this before he breaks bread with Glenn Beck again. Just review this video and pass it along to PENN.

    YouTube search:

    "Ben stein talks about richard dawkins on glen beck." -

    It's pandering in it's WORST form, about an issue that is against PENNs position on BULLSHIT. I really wish PENN would explain WTF he sees in BECK, and why BECK isn't an asshole here. Beck also endorsed John Edward (the psychic) in another video. I don't get it!!!!

  • I bet she gets a scumbag lawyer to sue for emotional trauma. America, the land of lawsuits.

  • Looks like your gonna need a sign on each show saying "Warning flying balls"

  • haha what a douche bag, I probably would have just laughed at you and my self for being in the goofy situation of getting hit in the face with an aluminum ball, lol definately would remember it forever

  • Sounds to me she need to get laid..LOL!!!

  • AAHAHAHAAA!!! that's great.

  • Who I feel sorry for is any guy who ever had a relationship with this bitch. Holy crap, can you just imagine what that must've been like!

  • What a bitch. She sounds like the type that would sue McDonalds for HOT! coffee lol.

  • You should have told the lady thank goodness I wasnt doing my bowling ball routine LOL.

  • I have been to your show each time I am in Vegas. I wish I was hit with the Aluminum ball. I would have just laughed. Sounds like it was a funny enough scene. I mean... come on you messed up juggling 3 aluminum balls. I know that had to be an accident.

    Blah blah... people like that ruin stuff for me. Not funny accidents.

  • There are people like that. It's ridiculous.

  • For a career as long as Penn's, he has a relatively low ratio of assholes-to-audience :)

  • i always called it the AQI - audience quality index

  • Jesus...

  • Comment removed

  • I love the way you guys show how the tricks are done but then put your twist on the ending. I normally don't like magic since it's so predictable. You guys tho are very unique.

    That lady just wanted free tickets or something.

    I wouldn't care at all about getting hit by tinfoil. How bad can that really hurt?

  • It ruined the whole video for me,.....LOL

  • I bet* you this person is 11.

    See what I did there?

  • i saw penn and teller at the rio in july. saw the ball and cup routine it was a great bit. this woman that complained about the aluminum ball was a real douche. i could see the issue if she was not wearing glasses and actually got hit in the eye and was injured,but come on. there are some people out there always looking to get something from somebody...

  • I wish I could have been there and been hit by that ball. Penn could accidentally kick me in the nuts and I'd be like, "Fuck yeah!" as soon as I stopped coughing up blood.

  • If she wasn't injured (especially if the damn thing didn't even make physical contact with her) then fuck her.

    I hope she see's this video.

    Wait...

    I take it back. I hope she NEVER see's this video, because then she'll have had her free ticket, AND the satisfaction of knowing Penn has made her "famous" to the couple thousand people who watch these videos.

    I'd have settled for a butt-bump, and a photograph... but you guys do that for free anyway... so... I guess I'm just not a douche.

  • Penn, I would have been honored to get hit in the eye with an aluminum ball from you.

  • Same here. Would have been funny, and another story to tell friends about.

  • Wow, that's pathetic. It be a hilarious memory if an aluminum ball thrown by an actor hit me in the eye (assuming it didn't end up as an injury). I still gotta see the show...

  • I don't know I think 3 is alot

  • You should've asked for the ball back lol

  • see if you just wear the fireman coat she would've been to mesmerized by how sexy you to care about getting hit in the face by your foil lol

  • I've been to the show and have seen the cup and ball trick. There is no way in hell someone could be injured by one and it sounds like the woman needs to lighten up.

  • its Amerika, 2009, everyone is sue happy.

    She's probably calling an attorney to sue you as we speak.

    You should avoid doing anything like that into the audience, unless you have solid attorneys and insurance.

  • Or we could just get rid of all the attorneys and she could go fuck herself, but then again what do I know. I do agree with you, fucking America is fucking sue happy. Makes me fucking sick

  • I`ve worked in the service industry from time to time. There are always people trying to get stuff for free. I just heard about the Magic Castle. Have you or Teller ever been there? Could you talk about this some time?

  • During the cup and ball trick, Penn says that they actually got kicked out of the Magic Castle for doing that trick. I'm not sure if it's true or not though.

  • EXCUSE ME SIR!!!

    But the way you described this woman being struck with the tinfoil ball has traumatized me to such a degree that it has ruined the whole video for me.

    I would like my money back.

  • She's going around, in public, saying that she's seriously distracted by small, shiny objects. yikes.

  • wow. some people are very sensitive

  • should have killed her

  • maybe we'll get lucky and the next show she goes to someone will be juggling chainsaws

  • Jeez, what a cunt.

  • She needs to grow a sense of humor!

  • cranky uptight woman you try to be nice but you didprobably the bestthing you could have done and really who cares!

  • whatabitch

  • wow what a bitch. to bad she wasn't at a solo 2 event with me this year. one of the cars threw a wheel weight and hit one of the spectators in the hip. acually broke the skin. The guy was like ok whatever it happens no big deal. That damn woman would probly want the car the weight came off of. some people are realy fucking stupid and thats y I can't be a celeb either. if I were penn I'd just say "OH my god a foil ball hit u! ur lucky u aint dead! next time it will be a bullet. have a nice day"

  • people are mean and crazy i get that in retail. something small happen thatwouldnt harm or do anything. and they make it so big. People are crazy very

  • Wow, what a bitch. Maybe on your next show you should play dodge ball with the aluminum foil balls or something.

  • its vegas, I deal with people like that all the time in valet. they wait a few extra minutes cause we have a rush, and they want a free meal or free room for the night, its no asshole, thanks for the stiff, get out, and never come back.

  • You should've beaten her to death with a feather

  • I know how you feel Penn. It's like when you tell a simple joke or say something not everyone agrees with and people jump down your throat over it. I liked the show with you that I saw. You seemed nice enough when I met you after the show lol.

  • A tiny aluminum ball? Really? It ruined the show for her? FUCK HER. Either she was kidding or she's fucking mental, I swear. I would consider it a great story and a fun time to get hit in the eye with an aluminum ball from the Penn & Teller Show. For fuck sakes, I'd hold it up when getting pictures with Penn & Teller after the show! Honestly, the nerve of some people just urks the fuck outta me.
