Henry Evans FOOL Penn and Teller? (S10 E13)

[@kenherrera2819]

Teller's grin at 3:56 told me he was seeing something very special! The man who knows a million tricks is grinning from ear to ear because he's seeing something he doesn't fully understand! Magnificent!

[@freemagicfun]

I love seeing Teller enjoy the show. You can really tell when I he is loving it. Even when they are not fooled - Teller just loves a good performance. 😎

[@michaelsanger8327]

apparently you know nothing about editing.

[@danquaylesitsspeltpotatoe8307]

Hes lauffing because he know how the simple trick was done! LOL I never touch the cards let me touch the card and stack the deck! FAIL!

[@freemanpense2782]

Magnificent? this is one of the worst peformances I have ever seen on P&T. You didn't see that he totally blew the trick and did an obvious fix that was so bad, I couldn't believe I was seeing it.

[@danquaylesitsspeltpotatoe8307]

@@freemanpense2782 Hey, The fix was the best part a low level fumbling forced card!

[@minxythemerciless]

The middle guy was a problem. He didn't do the instructions quite right. Henry spotted that and tried to fix it by getting him to remove his top card and put it in the middle. That's why Teller looked so excited. It still wasn't right so the face-saving force at the end was needed.

[@acousticboy9029]

Yeah you can even see at the end he peaks at the card

[@freemagicfun]

Yeah, at 2:47 on the last cut you can see he takes the bottom of the deck instead of the top like everyone else. He appeared to be left handed and could not follow the directions correctly (or he just never touched a deck of cards before). 😎

[@zantas-handle]

@@freemagicfun Well spotted - yes, that's the moment it goes wrong!

[@828_Nate]

Henry is so good that he fixed a screw up live in front of P&T 😎👍

[@joelants5207]

The way he told them to shuffle never actually change the order of the cards, but that guy was talking cards from all over the place , and putting them in the middle of the deck screwing up the order.

[@Darmachakra]

Wow. Finally one of the great performances again, the reason why I love Fool Us so much: people like you with amazing talent and a great performance :)

[@charlesbryantbantolio3297]

That mid performance improv to save the trick was flawlessly done.

[@danquaylesitsspeltpotatoe8307]

You do realize he plainly stated repeatedly he was not going to touch the cards right? He totally blew this trick and it was only professional courtesy that kept P&T from stating that.

[@PianoTechSupport]

I think the fact that this trick went wrong because of the middle guy; but he still was able to improv fix it, in itself is proof of a really seasoned magician

[@NCmountainview]

Part of the fun watching is finding out if it is a fool. I hate when the title spoils it. Edit to add that it is a great trick!

[@DL-kc8fc]

The purest trick I've seen. Bravo!

He is similar to dani daortiz. The guy in the middle with the Ace of hearts messed something up but he still pulled it out amazingly

😂

[@davormustra81]

At 3:48 you can see that his queen is at bottom of a deck,so something went wrong here,card should stayed at top

[@arik5983]

At 4:20 you can see purpple guy has 10 of clubs at the bottom of the deck when he puts it away

[@dr.heinzdoofenshmirtz3507]

I think that is the Queen of Spades

[@massimosk8]

It doesn't matter at all, their decks have all multiple copies of the same card needed for the Royal Flush, probably 50/50 with random cards, and a little bit smaller in size, so when you lift half of the deck with two fingers the last card you grab is 99% a bigger random card, and 99% the one you leave on top of the deck is a smaller "royal" card. This trick is not perfect, it depends a little bit on luck, hand size, handling capabilities of every spectator, but is super relayable, but it just worked 4/5 this time. Even when you fan to show the cards you almost can't see the smaller ones, try at home yourself, by mixing two completly different types of cards after combining them 1 on top of the different kind.

[@SarahJonestoo]

How beautiful is this. . . the act and the summary from Penn and Teller 👏👏👏

[@billknight5332]

Nice. Finally some old school fool us grade a card magic. Perfect recovery on the participant mess up too.

[@freemagicfun]

Those look like Phoenix cards. Lately I am seeing more of them on this show. Good to see such great cards getting more popular. 😎

[@MikeGervasi]

That was a great trick. Penn has a mind like a steel trap. He knew but it would have been totally unfair so he gave it to him, as he should have.

[@jamesreed5678]

Penn and Teller know how all the tricks are done. The winner is really the one they want to see more of.

Henry ademas de ser el mejor mago es la mejor persona que hay !!! Saludos

[@Violaetor]

You could tell by the middle guys really poor card handling skills that something was going to go wrong there. It honestly looks like that is his first time ever holding a deck of cards.

[@candlercando]

The middle guy is the real MVP. His left handed working with the cards gives way to many theories.

[@sailaab]

[@philrobson7976]

When the cards are shown to the audience fanned out I noticed that there was a shortage of face cards in the mix. But one person had a lot of them. And one person had no numbers on the cards (maybe it was a lightning thing). Camera catching Teller was excellent.

[@marcedwards5583]

Even the mistake (which I had no idea was a mistake until reading the comments) is handled so well that, on its own, is perfect. But only twice have i truly been amazed by a trick, the second being Daortiz, that i just want to watch only Spanish magic from now on. They have a similar stage presence too, that I wonder if they have trained together. Simply amazing stuff

[@jamesreed5678]

I don't think there was a mistake. Everyone had a bunch of identical cards. The deal with the middle guy was to try convince us that they really had a bunch of different cards.

[@MahdiTheMagician]

[@SergiiMonin-o5y]

After reading the comments I still have a couple of questions: (1) Why were the cards white? If the middle guy really showed them the wrong way wouldn't we see the regular back of the cards which had a blue pattern? (2) How are the right cards attached to the back of the regular ones so they stay attached when the cards are being shuffled but come apart easily when the audience members lift the top card?

[@accordeontipico]

U Rat!Bast! 😅 that was MAGIC to me❤

[@midnightmosesuk]

That trick took cojones to pull off. I have a vague idea how it might be done, the ace of hearts gave me a clue, but I can't honestly say I'm right, in fact it's mostly a guess. That guy is at the top of his game. A well deserved trophy.

[@eliteextremophile8895]

The way the middle guy shuffled the cards gave away the main principle but it's still just insanely complicated act and I can't figure it out even tho I'm almost sure I saw every detail. Just pure genius.

[@iambicpentakill]

Great trick, and I appreciate the non-spoiler title!

[@magicalsocks1]

The Ace instead of a queen 😂

[@gregorymorse8423]

His recovery was very good though, for a difficult trick like this.

[@MaverickCadaverick]

Amazing performance!

[@StefanMichaels-ut9jg]

How in hell did he still manage to force that Queen? heavy cojones

[@jbinmd]

He picks up the deck and turns it over to find the queen. With it as the top card, he then deals the second card until he needs to deal the queen--at which time he peels it off the top.

[@net_lag]

I can't believe no one is talking about this not having any spoilers in the title

[@GavinWongMagic]

😂

[@teleman07]

The Q of clubs ended up exactly at the bottom of that deck @3:47... The problem is, Henry did not know that possibility either. Those cards are gaffed so good that even the performer does not know exactly how they could work.

[@joebloggs2534]

He fans them the wrong way which hides the indexes

[@londonmeantime7123]

[@WilliamWynn]

I assume the guy in the middle wasnt paying quite close enough attention (I noticed he fanned the cards backwards), but to me it made the trick even more impressive as it truely shows how much control you had over things even though that shouldn't be possible. Such a cool effect.

[@GavinWongMagic]

Yeah I noticed it when he fanned the cards the wrong way in the beginning lol

[@chrisdedavid1860]

I too wondered if that was a clue to how it's done. Though I think it has something to do with the cut. Mind boggling to me how it's possible with 5 people. Just one would be amazing.

@@GavinWongMagic wonderful recovery, I was impressed how you managed to rescue the performance. Did you really need to look through the deck to find the card.

It seems like most agree he had to fix the trick so he was fast on his feet. Being that he had the same guy dump a 7 before the reveal he could've used that as an excuse as to why he did a 7 count. Would've seemed less of a fix and more intentional fake out. Awesome trick regardless!

They could re-shoot it, with another participants, and i'm sure that was discussed. But I guess they decided the cover-up force was good enough for a majority of their audience. Penn already did have all the knowledge on how to do the trick, but it was to complicated for him to remember. But sure, they did now the cover-up force for sure.
