FAQ
An occasionally asked question: Did I lie to Penn & Teller?
No.
During the performance there are 2 people that know how the trick is done. Me (obviously) and Mike Close. Mike is the magic consultant for the show, and for lack of a better way to put it, Fooler judge and referee for the show. He is the person Penn & Teller are talking with when they are trying to figure out the trick while Alyson and I chat. If I were to have lied, the cameras would stop and I'd be called out for it.
The pea was in the walnut.
So why did P & T ask about the handkerchief?
My guess is to eliminate that possible method for the TV audience.
So why did I use the handkerchief?
When the walnut is cracked open in addition to shell fragments going everywhere, sometimes the signed pea flies off the table. It's rare, but it happens. Watching three grown men search for a signed cork pea would not make for good television.
Could Penn or Teller have cracked open the walnut?
Yes, but given the time constraints of TV, and the need to expedite the process, I did.

[@Chuckiele]

@@swellswagal Well, you might catch a couple of things in that act but Penn pretty much said that everything was obvious to them except for how the pea got into the wallnut in the end, for which they have no explanation.

[@markzoned]

@@Chuckiele the nut was split in the middle under the tin cup. When he uncovers the nut he does a good job of hiding it, but not good enough for the close up. That is when he slipped the palmed pea into the nut. You can tell the nut is split by the way he holds it together even when setting it on the cloth. He doesn't release the nut until it's covered. He then really tries to smash the nut so that it breaks in more than one spot to not show the split down the middle.

[@gilolaes4725]

I think the coolest part of this routine is that you did pretty much everything you could to turn the crux of "knowing" the trick into seeing exactly when and how that specific pea gets into that specific walnut. It cuts down the universe of possible ways you did the trick so much that you're basically throwing down the gauntlet and saying, "Was my sleight of hand good enough to fool Penn and Teller?"

I love how every single magician on this entire series has the shaky hands. It has to be super nerve wracking to perform for penn and teller. It just shows how great this show is.

[@davidappelgate320]

While absolutely true, I can't help but think that shaky hands would actually make it a bit harder for someone to notice a move. If they're always making those little movements, it's really hard to tell what's nerves and what's concealing some sleight of hand.

[@arnabkar8792]

I think he kept it shaky to imply that he's not taking the pea out of the shell like he did in the first two instances, like lifting with two fingers and leaving it at a distance to make it clear to them that it's not in his hands.

[@GaryBarkerUK]

His hands started shaking right after he put the pea into the final shell. He was nervous that they'd spotted it.

I suspect the Doc expects half of the participants to do the same thing, with that embarrassed moment at not being able to follow directions and afraid they ruined the trick. In fact I bet it is why he asks them to put their finger on the cup to begin with.

[@turntsnaco824]

@@falcore91 It also puts a LOT of focus on those cups and whether or not the trick has been compromised, immediately before the moment where he puts the pea in the walnut, and beneath the cup. It's like mental misdirection. It basically keeps you from being complacent so that when he goes to pull the wallet out, you're not like "uh oh, he's doing something weird now...." the whole trick is full of odd, distracting moments. Thats why P&T were saying there were so many little things they'd never seen before....they weren't sure what to keep track of or which parts were actually relevant to his method.

[@rathabun5770]

Honestly, I was surprised how Penn wasn't trying to work around his guess with word play. Just straight up asked.

[@cooldude2251]

I think they had a feeling they were wrong. They didnt see the slight of hand but that was the only explanation they could use. And there was none needed since it was inside the walnut

[@joris914]

He always does that in order to maintain the secret to the trick, but if he had been correct on this, it would be simple sleight of hand. Not much of a secret to keep.

[@dlethe]

I disagree. I think they really enjoy being fooled. Much like a great chef loves a good meal prepared by someone else.

[@ashscott6068]

They're only allowed to ask one question or make one guess.. Obviously, they'd get it if they were allowed to go for their second or third choice. They used to explain these rules in the early episode, but they stopped. I guess they assumed everyone would know by then. They were thinking of not making their regular viewers hear the same rules explained every episode, rather than making it clear to people watching random episodes on KZbin, years later

[@clivejones7104]

@@dlethe I agree. After decades in magic they must have seen just about every variation of every trick ever created so when something comes along that really fools them, it must be a genuine delight however much Penn, always the showman, pretends to be annoyed sometimes - and I bet they learn the secret after the show!

Your 3:59 is wrong. The pea is kept under his left hand the whole time, up until the moment he drops both his hands onto his lap. That is why he keeps his left hand either: open and landed on the table, or close as if holding something. Apart from that step, my analysis agrees with all your other steps.

You know, I've spent the better part of 2 days looking at Penn and Teller Fool Us routines... Some segments are better than others, but what really sets some of the performances apart aren't whether or not they fool Pen or Teller, which is usually great to see in its own right. But rather, you know you see a great magician when they are genuinely passionate about what they do and are excited to be on a stage to share it with two other magicians they clearly admire and respect. Just look at him celebrate when he wins the trophy! I don't care very much for the egotistical types who are looking for glory, and this guy strikes me as a seasoned, well-adjusted performer, who has a great sense of humor, and a great act; even prompting Penn (one of the loudest and most refined stage personas I've seen in magic) to state "what a great routine, great routine" at 9:10.

[@AustrianEconomist]

That was amazing, man. Came from the Tom Woods show and wasn't disappointed!

[@andrewlaszczuk2807]

You are a natural showman. You have incredible charisma and I appreciate you sharing this content with everyone else. Keep up the good work, magic is amazing.

I just love seeing that genuine excitement at 9:02 - you can't replace that feeling with anything in the world.

I would watch hours of his act and never get bored. That's something so theatrical about him that I love.

Love his presentation and style. Great effect with a cool ending as well. Nice !

thank goodness for rewind, I think I did see part of the ….fun, but great presentation, energy and fun :)

[@mikemckenzie1397]

The only thing more impressive than the skill of this trick is the skill of your words, what an enjoyable and charming performance!

[@arh6624]

So well executed, and great banter with penn and teller, but I am amazed that they got fooled, I had the benefit of watching it twice, but then again they were right in front of him, and have 10000000x the experience I have!

[@benjaminmckee5041]

Saw you so many times at Kennywood! You're the best!

[@thomasanthonydavis3813]

This was so much fun to watch! You're a great entertainer, the whole family really enjoyed this.

[@ysucae]

i think i noticed on my second watch when he did it but i have not idea how. i love this act and the energy he gives off and how it holds up to scrutiny. i love being fooled by crafty, intelligent performers. what an art! i hope you keep doing this for as long as you wish to.

[@leepatton3265]

I love magic so much. I love to have my mind blown. It’s so awesome! Thank you for sharing your art with us man.

[@camerongrondzki2716]

I love how, as someone who has watched this show for a while and loves the technical side of magic, I can tell exactly when he does the slight of hands and switches BUT even though I know the exact moment he does it I still don't see him actually doing that. And that to me is soooo amazing

[@cero39b]

Dude your presentation is top notch. So smooth, and such a joy to watch a professional of your caliber.

[@lukeknowles5700]

Among the best close-up magic shows ever!!

[@DWish808]

I saw the flash at 3:55 which was hidden from Teller by the metal cup and hidden from Penn by your left hand. That being said, you totally got me on it actually being inside a full shell. ***APPLAUSE*** Edit: After 2nd watch... I saw the removal of it after the flash and the replacement into the metal cup as well as the use of the wallet. Great sleight of hand! I could never pull that off, especially with Penn & Teller sitting there and being on national TV. WOW!

[@rishimakhanlal8905]

I think most of us who are into magic aren't fooled by cups and balls. We at least have an idea of how it was done haha. The pea being in the shell fooled us all.

[@DWish808]

@@rishimakhanlal8905 Yeah, for sure. Great routine!

[@arh6624]

Love your stage presence, and general attitude. Thank you very much for brightening my evening.

[@kyledabearsfan]

I absolutely love this trick and your sense of humor. Its absolutely wonderful.

[@nazarshinwari4205]

4:53 he put some thing in said the glass 😂

[@miamicarlife4356]

Hes hands movement is where the trick is, when he puts his hands on his laps he's putting the pea inside the walnut and you can see how he puts the walnut with his left hand inside the cup. Great trick

[@TheBooban]

Yes, and around 3:50 is when he drops the pea onto his lap. The cup blocks Tellers view and his left forearm blocks Penns view. But they should have realized this anyways. And since the pea was in the walnut, he should have let them handle it and crush it.

[@SenorBolsa]

Always a fun one when you are lulled into a sense of knowing whats going on to have it thrown out with the last part, especially with the first switch practically being telegraphed from a mile away.

[@shadowraven137]

Always love this one. Add the stage presence and it's my favourite trick so far on P+T. (You also seem so happy to just perform for people, I love it) Can see some of the moves on the normal shell game now after the million'th viewing (and when i think the pea disappears), but still have no bloody idea as to how the final major part works.

[@themodernshoe2466]

This is my favorite routine I've seen on the show. Corny, but fun and he leans into the aesthetic of it all which works great!

[@Antes42]

corny? it was a pea... please kill me

[@bayogyog137]

corny?

[@johnvane5240]

The act is pure entertainment. The trick is great in and of itself but his patter and his off the cuff reactions are the stuff of legends.

[@jbolin2248]

You're awesome Doc, love the humor in it. Going to look you up and hopefully find a venue to watch your show. Bravo!

[@timmack2415]

Doc Dixon is the best entertainer to ever be on that stage. I enjoy his routines from being to end.

[@meermeer6882]

I love how the trophy stands for “Fooled us”, but it also makes the letters “F U”

[@Strazman]

It just goes along with P&T's decades-long tradition of off-beat and edgy humor. Sure they love that they were fooled but they also are probably a little annoyed that they were fooled. Good tongue-in-cheek humor.

[@nikrusty]

Hehe, loved the way you did it Doc. Smart, suave, total control, sharp and Witty! And totally genuinely happy that you beat P n T :D

[@thedeependrap2135]

Watching this back, I admire his sleight of hand. Very natural appearing. Also good at misdirection,. I loved the “whole” thing. Respect Doc Dixon!

[@gd7561]

That was freaking sensational, Doc!! And your sense of humor is fantastic as well!!!

The producers know the trick beforehand. They can't lie there.

[@chickenmane3319]

The magician has to explain the trick to the producers before they even invite them onto the show. The producers then decide if the magician really did fool Penn and teller

[@toby8026]

woa

[@SASMacDroid]

Presenting the wallet was the moment were the magic happened presenting the cloth was a moment to wasted some time and both of them stick really good together 😂

[@NeedBetterLoginName]

What a wonderful trick, Doc! Just saw the video for the first time. To fool Penn & Teller with this category trick is extra special. I have no idea how you did it and I enjoyed every second of it.

[@ckhprojectpro777]

This is excellent! Always such great work, Doc. Congrats!
