Magician REACTS to Giacomo Bertini MASTERFUL Coin Magic on Penn and Teller FOOL US 2019

[@realityquotient7699]

This is the art I love the most; no gadgets or mechanical trickery, just pure sleight-of-hand skill. Beautiful.

[@Okuri_Inu_Comic]

Same. I dont know much about the skill itself but when I learn it was a built device I'm much less impressed. Then again I'm a DnD player who always plays Bard/Rogues who use card tricks to make money. So I'm ignorantly biased.

[@realityquotient7699]

@@Okuri_Inu_Comic The only thing that sorta gives it away is you can see the white marks on his palms where he was concealing the coins, although it doesn't really because obviously that's where he was hiding them.

[@bentonneil7416]

I guess it is kinda randomly asking but do anybody know of a good site to stream newly released tv shows online ?

[@zagrebzebra]

I have met a ton of magicians over the years and seen a ton of tricks and shows and whatnot, from audience, tech and backstage perspectives. I would consider myself having some insight knowledge in the business trade of magicians. And what I can say is that, even though this guy is great at producing coins, his coin vanishes are out of this world. They are just the most impressive moves I have ever seen - by far! Such a great routine and, for sure, an inspiration for others to follow. Well done sir!

[@codyburton4976]

I absolutely love how enthralled and into magic Teller gets. His facial expression at the end was like a kid in a candy store.

[@jyesucevitz]

Teller's facial reactions aren't just because he doesn't vocalize. He's showing genuine wonder, amazement and appreciation to Giachomo,a talent.

[@tk20channel]

Jason, you are the most funny unfunny person ever. Please take this as a compliment! Btw, thanks for all of your fun videos while we're largely stuck at home.

[@Chimp_6]

I agree, if you lost "sight" of the coins at any point it's a fooler!

[@sbaxter4207]

To exaggerate: If a magician puts his hands behind his back and places a coin in one hand, then brings his hands forward and asks "where is the coin?" it's a 50:50 chance. If Pen & Teller know the technique they cant be fooled for loosing sight of where the coin is, surly?

[@efrjin7864]

Agree. According with what Penn is saying, that would mean they didn't fool David Copperfield.

[@danuttall]

And that is part of the reason the Samari of Magic managed to fool then with a Coin Matrix routine, because P&T lost track of things about 3/4 of the way through.

[@stevewebber707]

I have always had some issues with the criteria for winning on fool us. It leans toward mind games and red herrings rather than skill and quality of the magic. And there is some subjective room on how well they understand what happened. For one example, if a trick is executed that has 3 possible methods, it could fall to guesswork to determine the method chosen. It boils down to a competition between Penn and Teller and the guests. The qualities, and showmanship of the magic, can be tertiary to winning that competition. Of course professional magicians are going to be wanting to put on a good show anyway. Now that I think about it, I'm wondering what the technical definition they use on what is a magic trick.

[@DL-kc8fc]

@@stevewebber707 Many of us do not recognize coins as magic, but as juggling. Penn probably belongs to our group, so he doesn't care which of the three techniques was used and won't pass the trophy. However, where magic is applied, Penn has to determine which technique it is. In this case, the trophy is handed over for a bad estimate of the technique, even though the principle is well known. In essence, magic competes for whether or not Penn believes a fake switch.

[@ryanhamstra49]

I absolutely love watching a routine like this where in principle I know what he’s doing but I can’t follow it and he does it soooooo well. The pure skill is even cooler than not knowing at all what is going on

[@dazuk1969]

That is the best slight of hand coin routine I have ever seen....period. And to it right under the nose of P&T takes it to whole other level....rEspect.

[@stevengriffin1406]

Giacomo is a legend in the "underground" coin magic world. I'm surprised that he did this routine though, because he does things and routines that fool most knowledgeable coin magicians. Great video Jason! Man I love your channel.

This man is a grand master magician who has honed his skills for decades and his style of magic is mainly the classic coin method, and true to form that is all P&T had to say is that they know how coin magic is done and he did not fool them.

Giacomo Bertini. This guy is brilliant 🤩

[@Wtnwdl]

Nice rubber band trick, the snap sound when they interlaced was natural yet cool for the effect. Nice

[@marvennachay6758]

Hey Jason I think ofcourse Penn and Teller knew what the magician's doing. They show that "YOU ARE FOOLING ME" face as a reward to the italian magician. 😊

[@bikeadventuresokanagan9293]

one of your best videos, that included magic, a bit about your travels, and some really good sleight of hand magic.... This guy is super talented and clearly has some super human gift like Uri Geller , or something... Thanks for the Magic Jason

[@saviorebello7342]

Anybody think that Jason's reactions help them appreciate this magic trick more? Like if I saw this guy randomly, I would be like 'that's pretty cool', but after hearing Jason's explanation of the effort and artistry involved, I'm truly impressed! Also, anyone else catch the lipbite at 5:34? I guess she was 'impressed' with what his fingers could do! 😂

[@superhunk1989]

It took a lot of time and practice to master the magic coins tricks like in the video. I saw some mistakes (for example at 6:38), but- overall- Giacomo Bertini did an amazing job. Really enjoy his performance.

His “P” skills are by far the best I’ve ever seen ! Amazingly fast and accurate, resulting in a “vanish”. That “wash”, seriously ?? Nice ! Beautiful routine and thanks for the great content ! What I love about Jadon, unlike others, he is very complementary of skilled performers. Jason doesn’t try to flaunt his “I know how he did it” prowess. Jason is respectful of the skill and work of others and shows it. That’s what sets Jason apart and shows he’s a true professional. Much respect Jason ! 🎭

[@BruceNitroxpro]

I certainly appreciated ALL your sections, especially the one critique of Teller's expressions! FUN magic! Thank you again.

[@mitfreundlichengrussen1234]

Thx for your exceptional work. .. and yes, your definition of the rules would fit for coin magic perfectly - Penn and Teller definitely lost track several times - what a slick performance that was.

[@SDesWriter]

Every once in a while the camera catches something he is trying to hide, but I think if you were sitting in Penn & Teller's seats, you'd never see anything he did. It's a beautiful routine and very skillful.

[@clotho5437]

This is the guy that pulled me into coin magic and mastering the classic pass.

[@46lespaul]

I have been doing that rubber band trick for a while but loved it set up it was so clean even knowing how the trick works I still didn't catch the set up

[@VancouverMagic]

The first thing I thought when he brought out the black hole was David Roth, as he had a similar premise years ago. An incredible talent to CP 4 coins at a time (and that fast). I went back and there was a camera cut just before the black coins appeared.

I love coin magic, especially when the guy is this good. He was only there to promote his book, but I would imagine that he will sell a good number of these books, as good as he is.

[@ceen3237]

at 3:58 you can see a white circle in his right hand, is that just from palming coins constantly?

[@babajani3569]

When u said that the ''rule should have been that if u lost track along the way they should have considered it to be fooling". Well there was this coin Magician called Eric Mead who made said this in his presentation and said that I should fool u if u r not able to follow my moves and I think that since then they might have actually made that the rule for coin Magician cuz i remember David Roth fooled the as well.

[@michaelolson6982]

Eric Mead was way ahead of P&T with his preamble to his trick, he performed excellently and P&T did not have much to say as I recall.

Good point about the rules for Fool Us qualifications.

He used basic palms, like classic, finger and one that isn't used much but is explained in Henry Hays Amateur Magicians Handbook is called the Edge Palm. Which is different from the one most people think of when speaking of the 'edge palm'. But that specific palm will allow for the secret retention and delivery of multiple coins without making a sound.

Great video! I’ve got a brand new nephew recently and this channel has given me the idea to learn a few card tricks and some simple mechanics in order to fully amaze him (hopefully) in the future. I’ve been holding a deck of cards the last few days trying to split the deck with one hand in order to gain some dexterity before I try something low tier impressive. I will soon dive into the tutorials on this channel. Lol thanks👍🏽

awesome, that sounds like a great plan! I think you will enjoy the world of magic :) oh and thanks!

For the very young, cards can be confusing. Definitely enjoy and start learning cards, but I would suggest some more visual effects for your new friend. Grab a thumb-tip and some sponge balls and maybe practice cups and balls with everyday items. Congrats and welcome to the party!

[@maliceinwonderland4079]

I think Penn was able to follow it which is why he didn't fool them. It was Ryan Hayashi that he couldn't follow.

[@danuttall]

As Penn said, they lost track of things somewhere along the way during Ryan's performance. This time, they were able to follow where everything was going, but I lost track. :P The coin drop from the black disk apparently so far from his fingers got me.

[@michaelolson6982]

Ryan Hayashi was the samauri sword guy when he did coins he won them over on his bravado performance but it was still classic coin magic which P&T know so it now becomes double standards some you win some you lose.

[@corywithaynoe]

I’ve been watching your channel for a while, and I have to say I am hooked. You hint certain methods without blatantly saying how the trick is done. You are also very articulate. You seem like a quirky guy who is not trying to be a “KZbinr” by overly expressing yourself, but just keeping it real. Keep up the great work! You are almost at the 50K milestone!

@@JasonParkerMagic you need to create a trick you call fables and only your true fans will get it!

[@muratmhcoglu4184]

I was quite surprised to hear him say he was using his hands only, and nothing else. The "black hole", whatever kind of material or fabric it was, could have been gimmicked as well. And maybe it should be, in order for Bertini to have a better chance at cathcing the duo off guard. Having both a gimmicked "hole" which could serve as a "purse" AND those talented fingers could embellish his plot better... Bertini reminded me of another Italian magician who was once on the show - he had had a concrete language barrier as well, and it seemed like he did not really catch the spirit of the show, because he had walked away in kinda bitter, loser mode when it was told to him that the duo was not fooled... Well, at least Bertini seems to understand that the show is not only and only about "fooling", that the compliments and the recognition count as well... But still, I got the feeling that, if he was an English-speaking magician, he'd definitely have enjoyed better the previous episodes, caught up with the true spirit of Fool Us, hence, he could have added multiple other layers to his performance, which would earn him a trophy... Yes, it was "brave" to have P&T right by his side, but, was it really "necessary" or "clever" to do so? Less talented people walked away with compliments AND the trophy thanks only to having created better strategies, with plots conjured specifically for the show. Something in me says Bertini needs a smart agent more than anything else.

[@bulasturubula3660]

Cool that you finally got to do a trick for us ;p i was going to ask for it aswell. It would be super nice to have a trick at the beginning, even if it's magic 101 or funny. Also i noticed you reduced the space you take on the screen which is super appreciated. I still want to see you do more stuff

[@rrodeh]

Much love from another Kenyan

[@maximem.ste-marie3578]

also, Penn said something along the lines " there is some innovation we are not aware of ". Just for saying that, he should have the trophy. and you are right for the coins routine.. they do it for cards routine (if they can't catch something, the participant get the trophy). I don,t see why it wouldn't be the same thing for a coin worker

[@darkohanzo3075]

Played it at .25 speed and you can see the transfers but at standard speed they were beautifully done.

[@erizzle67]

If you just watch closely at normal speed it can be seen. The very first "vanish" you see where the coin goes. The awkward hand position gives it away also. I'm surprised he built a routine that does the move over and over. However, the hand wash move was great!

[@MaoDunGe]

I'm really pleased to see that you are gaining more and more confidence as your videos go by. At the beginning you seemed a bit too rigid, but now it's clear that you're completely relaxed and more used to speaking in front of a camera. Great job on the reactions. Also pleased to see yet another Italian magician taking his chance to fool P&T. You totally mispronounced the name, but I like your videos, you're forgiven

I fully agree with you that when i magician only uses sleight of hand moves on P&T, other rules should apply for them to be fooled. Otherwise they shouldn´t have these magicians on the show. That aside, OMG! He was amazing! Perfectly presented standing up, sleeves rolled up high, no other obvious misdirection other strange props like suspicious tables, clothing or "wands" that he can use. Even the cameras sometimes filmed a bit from behind showing the inside of his hands. Just straight up pure skills! For me, this is really the crème de la crème of magic performances! I want to see more of his magic! And yeah, your rubber band trick was also nice.. ;) Perhaps that would have fooled P&T. ;)
