Magician REACTS to Shawn Farquhar RETURNING for a 3RD time on Penn and Teller FOOL US 2020

[@ShawnFarquhar]

This was a fun video to watch! Thank Jason, you seem like such a nice guy. I have never watched reaction videos before and decided to make a reaction video of me reacting to this one: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gpLIi3WBo96re6s

[@JasonParkerMagic]

haha great idea. I thoroughly enjoyed it. It's a first experience for me as well 😆

[@WelshPaulJames]

Such a magicians lovein' 🤣😂 I've said before, I bought Shawn's ACAAN a while ago, so simple and intuitive, thought I saw a simular Yoda technique but could be wrong.

[@PhilipKloppers]

Just watched Shawn's video after it popped up in my recommended (I'd watched Jason's video a few days ago), and flew back here to let Jason know... Beat me to it! It was really cool to watch both reacting to each other - thank you! PS: I'm still clueless!!! Really beautiful performance

[@roesler]

I just loved how he went from performing all over to opening his own small venue so he can spend more time with his family.

[@JasonParkerMagic]

Yeah that's really cool and something I didn't know before watching...

[@MLPAshkore]

I love Shawn, and all of his appearances on Fool Us, and i think his third time has to be my all time favorite. Like Penn mentioned, he performed some old routines, and im just in awe at the sheer skill, speed and finesse he displayed in pulling off the first half of the act. Tellers reaction was priceless.

[@Harry351ify]

I'm really happy I'm sitting here rather than Penn and Teller's position. There were so many things happening and so many jokes cracked that I cannot even process what's happening let alone to guess how he does it. And Penn and Teller get only one chance to look at it the same way any other viewer would see. And they still got it right! Respect to both of them! By the way, my take on the Aesop's fable is that, the frogs need the sun for their survival. But they're not aware of it. They only see that the sun dries up their mud and complain about it. No matter what good you do to your society, someone will see something bad in you and will complain. Thank you Jason for the video. Keep them coming!

[@JasonParkerMagic]

Ooooooh that's an excellent take on the fable! Thanks for sharing! And yes you're right I wouldn't envy P&T at that moment... but I guess somehow they figured it all out, including the card selection.... Hmmm...

[@thiscommetwastyped8695]

@@JasonParkerMagic The first few cards are dealt without any shuffling. And it was a pass (he teaches that very move in his H.G effect download. )

[@billyjeffersoniv4344]

Wow! Really insightful!

[@DVineMe]

"Right in the pocket" would be another code word. And I think we all have a general idea of how he does it, but does that really matter? Like anyone can learn a trick, but it's the skill with which you perform it that matters. And this guy's got skill. That's what I find impressive about magic, that even if you know what's going on the magician has such a high level of skill that you still can't see it.

[@billyjeffersoniv4344]

Hey everyone reading this! First of all, I do not know Jason, I just really like his content and I want to see this channel succeed. He rarely, if ever, mentions he has patreon.

Jason Parker he is! I’ve only met him a few times but he was super nice and we talked for a long time.

[@johnjohn-cs9eu]

Well maybe after JP ...

[@nomiss_magic9752]

True

[@MarkusFriedel83]

I guess he controls the three cards to the top of the deck when he runs through the deck to show the new deck order. During the faro shuffle he merges below those cards. Alyson deals the cards one after the other onto his hand, he only tells her to do groups etc. after the initial three cards are dealt. Then he controls the cards to the top like others already mentioned at 3:40. For the book: There seems to be a second page 85, to which he opens it for Alyson. Looking closely at 5:47 and 7:14, you can see the page comes after the middle at first, but when Alyson opens it, page 84/85 comes before the middle of the book. I didn't see the deck switch, but the camera isn't on him when the deck switches from his right to his left hand at 5:56 The flap most likely refers to a flap which he holds onto the sealed deck, so it looks like an opened deck when Alyson signs it. At 6:06 you can see the addded flap not being flat on the deck at its edge Not sure if I'm right, it's just my best guess. (I haven't gone through all other comments, so maybe all of that had already been mentioned)

[@MarkusFriedel83]

Just realized he never runs through the deck up to the 8 of hearts at the beginning, in order to control that card to the top. But as he doesn't show the deck up to the 8 of hearts, this one could have been on top of the deck (below the ad cards) in the sealed deck.

[@Chesterton7]

Penn's flap remark refers to Hondo's gimmicked Flap Card used in the trick.

[@d_e_a_n]

It’s a classic idea to keep the top card (force card) or in this case a few cards, including 8 and 5 on the top while doing a riffle shuffle. She then starts dealing and after those 3 are dealt he then says she can do bunches of cards or whatever. He spreads the cards as if to show how cards are normally selected and retains a break at the bottom 3 cards. He really just has to do a pass or even just shift those cards to top as squaring.

[@JasonParkerMagic]

hmmmm wow! Well described. I think that might be the closest description to how he did it. In fact, after clicking publishing I went and watched that section again super slowly... and RIGHT BEFORE it cuts to another angle... you see Shawn getting fingers into position under the spread... probably exactly like you said in preparation for a pass. HMMM. I wish the camera would have given us a full view of this moment though. There are just a few frames where I could see it starting to happen....

[@d_e_a_n]

Jason Parker Even if we didn’t see it, that is the easiest and perhaps only way to accomplish this. It’s really just a card force with a very fancy complicated effect wrapped around it.

[@roesler]

@@d_e_a_n I believe that's the trick too - I noticed that force right away (I saw it explained on a Scam School episode once), and after that the trick seemed straightforward. Regardless, I love Shawn and I'll be impressed with him even if I don't think he fooled me.

[@АртёмМаглинец]

Look up a video of Shawn doing an ACAAN trick on his channel, Jason :) he is very familiar with doing such stuff

[@waynesmith2287]

That is pretty much how I think it works.

[@kathrynnpetersen8876]

That was really funny when he said that he calls them the broback kings

[@charlesfrancavilla6215]

Jason, I think you saw the interesting thing that I saw in the 2 shuffles, based on your look at the camera at 3:33 minutes. I was lucky enough to also catch the important sectioning out of the 2 bottom cards immediately after, just before a camera angle change prevented us from clearly seeing the control to the top of the deck (my assumption, but it just has to be correct). That is why it didn't matter how Allison shuffled the cards after dealing out the first 2 (probably reversed order). I completely agree with you on your assessment that 85 had to be predetermined.

[@sbaxter4207]

The "WoW" factor was missing for me. it was all happening so fast. Yet, when he resealed the pack back in the plastic, I thought that was done in such a simple way, as he just closed the flap!. This harms the first P&T trick. Although, how got them in new deck order and with the page inside is hard to see as the camera cuts away!

[@marcelobarros5729]

My guess is he is palming the paper and just slips it in from behind when he gets to J of diamonds as he is scrolling through.

[@jean-francoisquesnel5607]

I do believe Penn's reference to a pocket suggest that he held on to the 3 cards he needed for the trick as he offered the deck to alison.

[@benjaminmehta7993]

It has to be said that it was the most wonderful card force. Should try something like that in the future.

[@blackflamesentinal3204]

Dude great vid!!! and that was a hell of a story I'll be sure to remember...

[@JasonParkerMagic]

Glad you enjoyed it!! :)

[@severedmetal]

This was great. The only reason I had any clue what was happening was because I attended one of his lectures and I picked up most of the stuff he uses. But he is awesome and a great performer.

[@pacerdawn5512]

I think that's an interesting way he had his hand positioned against his chest there while Alyson is handing out the cards. I didn't see anything, but then Penn says "You did it so fast and clean" as he puts his hand against the edge of his own jacket. Maybe something, maybe not. But maybe something.

[@johnjohn-cs9eu]

Possibly/Maybe a ruse ?

[@DVineMe]

Given that his hands were clean before that and that afterwards it looks like he's palming some cards that is probably how he did it. Could also be what "right in the pocket" refers to, could just be his right hand pocket.

[@MrStevenMosher]

from 3:40-3:45. palm of his hand is over his lapel, he "motivates' touching his chest by saying "you have cards and "I have cards." making the unnatural move of bringing his palm to his chest seem "natural"

[@helderboymh]

If you play his hand going from his chest down to the stack in slow motion(0.25%) you won't see him having palmed card there and even his fingers are quite far a part at one point. I watched it multiple times, this would have to be the sickest palm ever especially considering he somehow got them from his chest wich doesn't seem like a palm that would allow you to set them up so precisely.

[@DVineMe]

@@helderboymh Indeed, well you can't see if he's palming anything or not, but his hand goes fairly straight before he even touches the deck. Nevertheless this is one of the best magicians in the world. So I honestly wouldn't put it past him lol. Also it is a well known spot to have a hidden pocket, so... Still, could all be misdirection. In the end all we know is that he forced the cards in some way, and no matter how he did it it was done perfectly.

[@LaLeLuN]

at 3:40 (exactly 6 or 7 seconds later, when the camera angel switches to his front)) you see, how he devides the 3 last cards from the rest of the deck, so he can put them on the top of the deck. And at 4:30, when he needs a "random number", he says "and a 5", even before looking at this card (so he knew, it was a five!). Too quickly said ;)

[@JasonParkerMagic]

Great catch! I didn't notice that. He does appear to say "five" almost as soon as he sees the card... perhaps a little too soon, as you suggested :)

[@kingrobert1st]

I think his whole act was way too fast...didn't have time to catch your breath. Did he have a train to catch or something? Maybe another highly paid gig in Saudi Arabia?

[@matthewryan4844]

I notice the jack 8 5 are in arithmetic sequence 5+3=8, 8+3=11 (jack). but if you actually do two faro shuffles (in or out) these three cards are not next to each other, nor is there any sequence 5,8,11 of any other suits. My guess is he forced those three to be there.

[@waynesmith3908]

I enjoy our story time Jason and the weeks amusing wisdom with just the right solar intensity.

[@minxythemerciless]

At 5:54 the car pack swapped hands seamlessly. Bit suss? And earlier when the jack and 8 and 5 were chosen there was an obvious palm to load them on.

[@corywithaynoe]

Wow! My head hurt just WATCHING Shawn perform this trick!!! 😳🤯😵

[@mahadevovnl]

He has his hand to his chest at 3:44 and when saying "That's good?" he quickly moves his closed, sideways positioned, hand on top of the deck. He forced 3 cards right there.

[@helderboymh]

Nahh watch the ten seconds before that in slow mo you can see his hand is empty and its not possible to just put cards in that hand by just placing it on his chest. If you watch in slow motion you'll also won't see any cards in his hand as he puts it on top of the deck.

[@tomas_soeterik]

He forced the cards, the sleight of hand used is called H.G by Shawn Farquar, you can buy it

[@helderboymh]

@@tomas_soeterik I just looked at that effect and I don't see how it's related at all as he use two ways to determine the card (one picka card from a fan and one name a card) neither of wich he used in this trick.

[@tomas_soeterik]

@@helderboymh I am talking about the force, he forced the card just like in the H.G effect. Allison starts dealing the cards and after she stops Shawn spreads them out and does the move. I don't understand what you mean a fan picked a card, sorry.

[@helderboymh]

@@tomas_soeterik I'm talking about the video I looked up for that effect that you are talking about, watch that video please (search H. G SHAWN FARQUAR). Maybe that wil make this easier

[@OL-yd8ee]

@jason, I think the hint from teller is "fast and furious and clean and that maybe we'd forget stuff," regarding the force. If you look at what happens when he has alison putting the cards in his hand, the first few cards she puts down are just whatever was on top when Shawn handed her the deck. (fast and furious meaning the reason it works is Alison puts enough cards down to complete the trick before she starts messing with the deck, and forget stuff about not recognizing she already places enough cards before she did so). At which point any manipulation that puts those three cards on the top completes the force. (the clean reference). Could even have made it easier by picking an order that sequenced 5-8-J as the top three when handed to alison so that when reversed in his hand (from Alison placing them one at a time) they are already in J-8-5 order and it's simply a matter of lifting them to the top of the deck while his hand covers it. Unless you saw more in the palm movements than I did that made it impossible for him to have manipulated them that way (I know you said you didn't see him /add/ new cards, but that would have different indicators I think)

[@drumjosh1987]

Yes!! Was happy to see you reacting to this 🤙🏼

[@JasonParkerMagic]

🙌

[@CaptainVideo1960]

I believe the first two farro shuffles brought the jack the 8 and the 5 to the top of the deck. As Allison counted they were now at the bottom of the pile in his hand. When he spread the cards he did executed a pass allowing the cards he needed to be at the top. The rest is just fancy fast switching. That being said I still have no idea how he forced the card Penn took the first time around

[@wiiilc]

Dude, that third performance was the best of all performances by anyone.

[@ddd884]

At 3.32 when he handover the deck to Alison, the jack of diamond is already on the top of the deck. When Alison deals back cards, the Jack of diamond goes to the bottom of the deck on Shawn's hand. Then he cleverly forces it to the top of the deck.

[@Mrhulk86]

The mere number of tricks and his skills blow my mind. Fooled me for sure. More importantly, it was really entertaining which is what magic is all about. Alyson dealt the cards but the cards were in his hands and with his skills he sure can force the card in a blink of an eye (just a thought, not sure). Thank you for the video Jason, it's always a treat.

[@bambulkomccloud3983]

My guess is that the deck was not completely in new deck order. He only showed the lower half of the deck until the 'kissing Kings'. And when he did the shuffles, the top cards stayed in place. When the cards were placed into his hand, he told her only after the first few cards, that she can also put down multiple cards. So the desired cards were at the bottom. When he squared up the cards he controlled them to the top (at 3:48 is a suspicious sound).

[@JasonParkerMagic]

[@leogothisoscar271]

@@JasonParkerMagic Thoughts on the second one?

[@FanVarious]

Here's a thought. There are rules... but are they allowed to tell the director to ask a certain cameraman when to cut to another angle during a trick?

[@JasonParkerMagic]

Maybe so... after the performance... they gotta spend a little time deciding what edit to release to the public.

[@notbob555]

The way I see it, you aren't allowed to use a camera trick, meaning you can't use the live cameras that Penn, Teller, and the audience are watching. But after the fact editing is irrelevant for fooling Penn and Teller, so the audience at home doesn't necessarily get the same performance.

[@ShawnFarquhar]

I can't speak for anyone else, but I have never had any control over where the cameras are placed, which shots are used, or any input into the editing of the segment. I don't think I even met the Director. I heard his voice once in the rehearsal. LOL

[@bilskro]

My take, seems like a reasonable straight forward force. Due to cameraman it is impossible to be sure, but I don’t think he palmed the cards and placed them on top even though he put his hand up to his vest. First he shows the deck of cards starting at the bottom saying they are in new deck order (call me suspicious). He starts showing the spades, then the diamonds, then clubs and then rushes through the rest of the deck so he never shows what cards are actual on top, which I think is where the J, 5 and 8 laid in wait. So when the deck is turned over, those 3 cards are on top of the deck and he does a few shuffles never messing up the top 3 cards. Then Alison deals those top 3 cards to him and now they are on the bottom of his hands and only after that point does he tells Alison she can pull cards from anywhere. Then the useless POS cameramen decides instead of showing us the deck of the cards we would want to see the back of Faruhar’s suit; butut if you look at 3:47 right after he spreads the cards out and look at his fingers position you can see he is separating those 3 cards at that point. I think somewhere when we are looking at his back he moves the bottom 3 cards to the top of the deck (I wonder if the cameraman is paid off or incompetent). Now there is so much going on with this trick it is hard to even follow all of it. For the deck switch he had all the time in the world to swap the deck and the trick was as Penn said the “FLAP”. I think the sealed deck had the fake flap which he then removed at 6.37 leaving a sealed deck. It was hard to see the book swap as once again the cameraman shows what he wants to show, but he had all the time in the world to swap the book and Penn mentioned pocket. So I am not 100% sure if book swap or just a book with some gimmick. I will have to research the Pegasus Page. You did not do a video on Ondrej, that fooled Penn and Teller. I must be missing something or maybe there was something there more complicated. Penn checked the cards and they were not fake that could only leave me with one conclusion. They acted like she pulled the Ace of Spades and then she picked the mouth to feed the bug into. She fed the bug into a mouth and then he played a video clip. I would guess he had a Video clip ready no matter what Mouth she chooses. Any other opinions? Also you did not mention Gertner. One bad break for Gertner was that Penn picked 47, so there would have only been 5 more cards remaining and there were clearly more than 5 cards remaining which is why he quickly straightened up the deck. But I am going to ignore that fact, as I am interested in the pen. He did not give the Pen to Penn until after Teller picked the pick and Pen choice his number. Penn kept saying the word force again and again. My question did he force the pick or not. Because if Teller had free choice of the picks that means Gertner had a hell of lot of pens in his coat. At a minimum he had to have 52. I am curious how he had all those pens organized so he could quick and easy pick it out. As for the card pick as Penn kept saying rough and smooth again and again.

[@monteanderson7181]

Penn also said "mythical flying horses," but a unicorn deck is just a design, not an effect, right? He also said "pocket," which, I assume refers to the deck and *possible* book switch. He knew Allison would deal the cards one by one at first, so, perhaps after the faro shuffles, (I think mentioning "learning" from Penn about perfect shuffles was verbal misdirection that he was, maybe doing faros that were perfect *for him*) he knew those 3 cards would be first and somehow controlled those 3 to the top. (I didn't see it.) I know I'm stretching for an answer...

When it was dealt on his hand by Allison.. Those 3 cards went to bottom.... At 3:48 when he spread the card... He took 3 cards from bottom & placed it at top...

[@cwuwillyman5149]

Penn also said “BASS” which could refer to base dealing. Could he have pulled the three cards off the bottom of the deck?

[@DanneAK]

At 3:47 it seems he is doing something with the bottom card.

[@Melpheos1er]

3:47 look closely on his left hand and you will know how the Jedi intervened :)

[@rajibbhuyan4121]

He indeed is a world champion

[@sociald4515]

Did you see that Shawn Farquhar made a reaction video to your reaction video of his performance on his KZbin channel?

[@WiiAndii]

Could you also react to his second performance on the show? That one's my favorite of his. Or did you already do so and I just can't find it for some reason?

[@RobertBallMagician]

This was a great show last night.😊😊

[@JasonParkerMagic]

Yes it was!

[@andrew_owens7680]

Random number 85 is a force. This is a key to being able to prepare the deck. That's as far as I can get and I'm no magician.

[@ezequiel_reis]

Nice reaction video!!! Shawn Farquhar is always fun to watch and he's a great magician. As for being fooled i wasn't but it's a great rutine, fast passing, non- stop 👍 Penn didn't address (from what I've heard) how he got the Jack of D right. Keep it up and stay safe 😁👍

[@JasonParkerMagic]

thanks!! :)

[@Wondermass]

I've no idea how it works, but isn't a card flap where a card starts out as one card and then the same card instantly turns into another? It can also be done with card boxes to change their colour or design.

[@aredub1847]

They need to put this show in 4k 120fps.

[@abdulrobertrogers8563]

He's really talented

[@antoniolisboa9777]

The page 85 in the frist 5:57 time is almost iin the middle of the book, then in 2nd time de page 84 7:14 is in other position in the book.. hum!

[@TechnoBowen]

I was frankly getting annoyed with his constant references to the previous episodes he was on. Seemed a bit self-congratulatory or something. But after your comments about it really illustrating how he was merging the two illusions, it made more sense. I'm not annoyed anymore. Thank you. BTW, getting a reaction video out this quickly after the episode was pretty nice. Thanks.

[@ecp4500]

Must admit i always thought Aesop's Fables Book you read was going to be long running magic trick like a blank book lol.

[@JasonParkerMagic]

hahaha.... that would be great... maybe I can implement that into a future video... :)

[@wampiroindoril]

Alright, he fooled me!

[@checkyoursixgaming]

The force happens when he rests his hand against his breast when she is dealing to his hand. He grabs the other three cards before placing them on top. This is at 3:42 in the frame there. The camera doesn't show us this because we are looking at his back unfortunately, but this is where it occurs. Everything else is just preset.

[@helderboymh]

Please explain as after that frame she still puts more cards on there and she could have continued. If you mean him putting his right hand on top at 3:44 to straighten the cards up. This is also not where he puts cards on top as we see in the part before that his right hand is empty and he only puts it on his chest and then on top, he could not have taken the cards from his chest in between. Also if you play it in slow you won't see any cards in his right hand as he puts it on top.

[@checkyoursixgaming]

@@helderboymh at 3:42 is when he is palming the 3 cards to place on top when she is done putting whatever she wants in whatever order she wants. Due to bad camera angles we don't get to see it too well, but I assure you he has grabbed the cards when he reaches up to his chest. Everything else is just preset to do based on those 3 palmed cards. You can see by 3:44 that is hand is now cupped instead of flat as that is the motion to be palming the cards. He could have easily hidden a special device inside the jacket breast there to aid him in holding those cards to be palmed and delivering them to his hand. Penn's reference to "Flight" was talking about making the card's fly to his hand for use on the force. The Base right in the pocket is referring to his jacket breast pocket area. This is why Penn wasn't fooled because he caught that and knew the rest of the act as well. Same with the reference to the flap of the jacket pocket. He didn't want to say "force" because most people these days understand what that means even in magicians code, so he was stating where he saw the force happen and how it happened with those references.

[@AlphaMachina]

He got her to cap the pen so that it masked the sound of him relidding the deck of cards. A magician rarely does anything for no reason at all, and he specifically asked her to cap the pen while at the same time fiddling with the deck lid. Key word here is.. "flap" The flap, the lid of the deck.

[@brianrhinehart51]

He is awesome. But your correct, he forced those 3 cards to top and used two decks and setup 2 books ahead of time. He did really great slight of hand on the shuffle but after those 3 cards were selected it is pretty straight forward.

[@konanoobiemaster]

technically a hat trick is 3 goals by the same player in an ice hockey game.... other sports have adopted the analogy but it's stems from a hockey player scoring 3 goals in one game (a "natural hat trick" is 3 goals in a row by the same player)

[@Borg1269]

Pretty sure the terms stems from cricket, hockey and soccer both adopted it.

[@JoeScottish]

It came from cricket, where if the bowler got 3 outs in 3 consecutive bowls, he literally got a new hat..... other sports adopted it from that

[@JasonParkerMagic]

haha... funny to know that a new hat was the reward :)

[@rndman8402]

The fact that he said 5 before he even looked at the card was weird to me the first time I saw it but then I remembered I was watching a magician that already knew what those cards would be before he even shuffled the deck. Yeah, everything seems normal here guys...

[@bricelory9534]

Would "pocket" be a possible code for forcing the three cards? Don't know any magic, but it seems like it's a potential one to me at least.

[@scerifforosso]

maybe he used the fan, in which he spreads the cards at the beginning, to control the 3 cards on top?

[@billyjeffersoniv4344]

Oh!!! Put an extra flap on an already sealed deck!!! That makes sense!

[@JasonParkerMagic]

Yeah exactly! Crafty!! Tricky!! :-D

[@sbaxter4207]

An edit where the camera remains on the magician with no cuts to the audience or P&T would be nice. bluray and dvd have multi camera/video channel features. It could be a great feature and selling point for the discs. We could even click from camera to camera as we please. lol

[@JasonParkerMagic]

Yeah that would be a compelling reason to buy the DVDs!

[@azenlokhing2499]

Hello Jason please do a reaction on Winston card trick on AGT .. thank you

[@JasonParkerMagic]

It's coming soon... TODAY in fact! :) Thank you for the heads up also!

[@thesammyjenkinsexperience4996]

After watching some of those old acts from season one and then this, it's pretty clear that Jonathan Ross was so much better than Alyson Hannigan when interviewing performers and participating in tricks.

[@JasonParkerMagic]

yeah Jonathan is SUCH a funny guy too...

[@jeffborowiak8992]

Some times alyson is good.

[@AmazingJaze]

JASON for the LOVE OF #$% please react to the 2019 Christmas FOOL US Asi Wind performance. It will knock your socks off!! Best Fool Us performance in a few years!!

[@ksingh631]

What did he mean by ''playing base right in the pocket''?

[@MavisRileyJunior]

He knew what cards she dealt to his hand so he cut them or did a pass to get them to the top,in order to force.

[@MoonLiteNite]

So just assuming there was some nice force at the start, or way to get cards on top, everything else was just self working, other than getting the seal back on the deck. Torn page, missing card, etc, etc, was all set and ready to go. Simple set/force, some nice kickass slight of hand and great talk!

[@icthulu]

Poor guy, it looks like he has early Parkinson's with the way his hand is uncontrollably shaking.

[@JasonParkerMagic]

Hmmm it might just be that he was nervous...? no?

[@icthulu]

@@JasonParkerMagic I imagine that a man like that who has performed before thousands and princes for decades wouldn't have only one hand shaking. I hope this is me reading into things too much.

[@TreyCook21]

I wondered the same.

[@MrAndyStenz]

I think it’s nerves. Being calm on stage doesn’t mean you don’t shake a bit now and then ;-)

[@johnjohn-cs9eu]

Yes, he's no spring chickling anymore but a good performer ... and why not do your own self-publicity since these Arab Princes pay goodly sums for performances - he probably was able to pay off his mortgage when he got back?

[@CloseUpFootball]

Everything happened so fast, I didnt get the clue what part was the magic what part was what.. damn

[@ShashankBhavaraju]

He is an amazing performer... However my guess is that the card selection was forced... He never declared how the cards will be selected initially once he had J Diamonds ready that became her selection And so did choice of page 85

[@Rising_Pho3nix_23]

Playing this at 0.25 speed, 1080p and full screen, he did not palm the 3 cards. He waved his hand quite a bit in front of Alyson and rotated in every angle. Nothing traveled through the sleeve, both hands were tracked. It was not a palmed force. The shuffle seemed fair, the choice seemed free. I'm fooled.

[@E942-h2d]

Actually, it may be that you need 53 of these shuffles, since he left the Joker in there and 53 is a prime number.

[@JasonParkerMagic]

🤯

[@glentheAussie007]

Now I'm definitely not good enough to see how he did this, but before he finished I was thinking cooler for the force, do you think that's possible Jason. By the way I've only learnt these code words and methods by watching your videos, cheers 👍

[@JasonParkerMagic]

Hey Glen! Cooler in the past when Penn has said it means "ringing in a cooler" or to switch out decks. :)

[@rafaelallenblock]

3:47-3:48 you can see the beginning of a flash of him grabbing three cards off the bottom of his stack but the camera cuts away. I'm getting tired of what amount to "camera tricks" on FU. Boo......

[@muhammadtaufiqhussain5193]

I think you’re absolutely right. He grabbed those bottom three cards and brought them on top of the deck.

Nice book vanish effect : )

[@ryanadams7581]

For the card selection, I think the cards are the first three cards to be dealt as, when Alyson stops dealing, he spreads the cards so he could side steal the bottom three cards and add them to the top. Also when Alyson signs the box, you can see it already has the plastic on it.

[@unbroken1010]

All right two videos this week keep it up I'm not a video gamer but I've been reading a lot about the video game The Last of Us Part 2 I think there's a debate there that needs to happen something I'd like to see you talk about

What is going on penn literally said the rat bastard was not going to be allowed on the show..😆😅 can't wait to watch this

How is your journey through the world of Penn and Teller Fool Us going.

It's going well! I still have sooo many acts I haven't seen. I'm really behind the viewing of most of the seasons... didn't realize what a cool show it was until I started reacting in season 6
