I really liked it when he asked him what the name of the monkey was. The performer glanced back at it when he answered. I believe it was a subtle way of confirming their theory of how the trick worked. The performer was unintentionally glancing back to check the position of the picture, remembering it was the U and so that's the name he needed to answer with.

The key point is that the pictures have different names depending on where they're placed. The mountains for instance can be 'H'imalayas, 'Urals', 'M'ountain, 'A'lps, or 'Negoiu'. Little flaps and magnets on the back let him lock in the letter.

Penn basically spoonfed me this theory by pointing out that you could simply call Uakari a "monkey" and it would be M. i think it is case of multiple outs as in he has story prepared to "name" every art to spell human no matter where alison position it, and then papers come in important to make audience think that words used and narrative told is only option (making illusion that there is no multiple outs)

I have to say this trick was awesome but I was able to piece it all together and love it. Each picture could be named something differently to spell out Human. Then the real important part is that the stage hand had to bring the right combination of papers out after finding out what the names would be. Anyway the end of the trick was that the center of each letter was a magnet strip that was actually already on the stand when the trick started but it was colored to look like part of the stand and only needed to modify the center of each letter. Well done sir.

Each picture can be named five different ways using the letters H U M A N. The easels are pre-programmed to move the middle bar of each letter to correspond with the easel, such as easel 1 moves the middle bar to form the letter H, easel 2 moves the middle bar to form the letter U, etc.

No, the easels already have the letters on them. Nothing has to move. If you notice, each letter has two columns in them, like a vertical equal sign. Each of the paintings has a slot running down the back of it, where they rest on the easel. The trick is that the center of each letter is already on the easel and connects to the back of the painting, probably with a magnet. So no matter what painting Allison chose to put first, that easel always had the "--" on it, which would turn the "| |" that's on the back of the painting into an H. If you look at the easels before he puts the paintings on them, you can see them on there painted to look like part of an empty easel.

In the end when word "Human" is revealed there is no instant audible gasp or no thunderous round of applause. It looked like Yann is implying the spectators "the act is over, you can clap now". May be you get the paper prediction right somehow and then also get the word human will get you standing ovation. Well done on constructing this act !!!

Do you see those vertical lines that divide each letter into thirds?? Each one of those letters, the first and the last third are exactly the same, so all he has to do is change the middle third of each letter of any arrangement of those 5 letters and he can spell out HUMAN. And the U and the H and the A are all nearly identical, very little needs to be changed about those 3. So when does he change the backs to spell out HUMAN? Hehehe, that's the best part. See he doesn't even really do it. Look at the easels when he turns around each picture... the BACKSIDE of that middle third panel is painted exactly the same as the easel! It's hiding in plain sight!

HOW ITS DONE ALERT: This one us super easy to figure out. Notice that the letters on the back of each painting are segmented. There is some element in each painting that would correspond to each of the 5 letters so then it's just a matter of adjusting the letter on the back to make it match where she placed it. The papers coming out are a subtle trick to make you think the words for each painting were set in stone, they weren't. They just pulled the 5 out of the 25 that corresponded to where each photo was placed. The numbering on the pages also helped reinforce that false understanding that the word for each painting was going to be the same no matter where it's placed.

Note the loud "click" and shudder each time he places a painting on an easel, except for #1, which is default "H"; I think that's the magnets pulling the _middle_ segment up, down, or sideways.

Ambiguity can be a useful thing at times. Very creative. The off-stage fail works to head everyone's minds off in the wrong direction. Mental misdirection. Well done.

It’s the best part of the trick. 25 potential words everything could be called so the only way to get the right words in the envelope is the “fail”. If he figured out how to get the right words in the envelope without an obvious switch I bet it would have fooled them.

I figured it out as it was going on, and then when Penn explained it afterwards, I could actually understand the code. He doesn't just speak code in one part of the response, the ENTIRE RESPONSE is the code, deconstructing the trick without telling the audience how it's done. That's truly amazing, and I would love to do this one myself

Magnets on the back of each picture to spell the right word. All of them just have straight bars on the back for letters so the magnet fills in the correct letter and then the story he uses makes the pictures the correct letter. Penn's description of the 'middle' of the trick is what gave it away. Also a neat affect for the 'fail' so the stage hand can hand him whatever the names of the pictures will be to make everything match. Still a fantastic trick!

He's sort of stuck with a problem that can't be overcome in that the letters have to be visible to the entire audience therefore very large and noticeable similarities.

How about the fact that "H" was initialized by helicopter, "U" by the monkey, "M" by magician, "A" by Alps, and "N" by that dirty city? Was that a coincidence?

@@agentm10 No coincidence is possible,so, hmmm... ºº that complicates things a bit; well, ?does it mean that for each picture he has 5 different names, each one starting with one of the 5 letters H U M A N ( U -uakari? is also M- monkey and so on...), and when he places each pic on the stand,he names it according to H U M A N ? but i wonder what could the other names be.

@@agentm10 what? No matter what picture would end up somewhere else, it would always still spell HUMAN (for example if the "alps" wouldnt be on 4 but on 3 he wouldnt say that the picture is alps, he would call that "mountains" so it matches with the M and so on.. the uamari can become a Monkey, or an Ape or whatever.. the helicopter one could be Military, Navy or whatever else it needs to be.. And the letters on the back would also spell Human because all the letters have permanent lines on the sides and only the middle part is moveable and probably magnetic to make every letter what it needs to be in just one move while he puts the picture on the stand.

I had noticed the odd sections in the back element of the stands. When looking at the letters at the end trying to figure it out, I noticed that every letter in HUMAN has verticals on either side. The letters also have odd gaps between the segments that make them up.

**Spoiler** : H is the default of every picture. The virtical lines on all pictures do not move. The middle slot of each picture is on a scroll that moves in all directions. Each easel has a magnet to the North South East and West. Each easel pulls the scroll to the respective positions. 1. (H) default 2. pulls down the scroll moving the middle line of the to "H" making it (U). 3. Magnet pulls scroll left revealing the V making the (M). 4 pulls up moving the middle of the H up and revealing another horizontal line making (A). 5 pulls right revealing the diagonal line making (N).

That would be one way of doing it. But I don't think that's what he's doing. I'm guessing part of each easel comes off and _becomes_ part of each letter.

This trick is pretty easy to figure out. You'll notice that he asks Alison - "Where would you like me to put THIS PICTURE?" He doesn't refer to them at all, because each picture has a different reference to H, U, M, A and N. He only identifies the picture once it is placed somewhere. Hence why Penn was referring to Monkeys. Like why would you need a marine next to the Holicopter if you only needed it to be a helicopter? Or the Army? Or the United States? Wow, I guess it doesn't matter what order you put them in after all. You can also see the lines on the letters on the back of the pictures.
