Penn and Teller Fool Us // Piff the Magic Dragon Returns

[@Dave2kool4skool]

For the record Piff got away with the $20 without Penn and Teller noticing so he did fool them.

[@porkeman9007]

Wasn't that the deal?

He gave that note and card off stage and had someone go on and off stage multiple times. So he didn't even fool me.

@@dadikkedude Gotta agree. Moment that note left the stage and when it was inside the card, i knew how he did it. Gotta give it to him, he did pull most convoluted distraction on history of magic, but just give it two second to think where the note and card went and you realize it was all smuggled to back stage and then back to stage.

I saw Piff about 3-4 years ago in Vegas in his theater and it was awesome. Small crowd maybe 20 people and we were up front. We just came from 50 cent beers at Margaritaville an I was middle of the road drunk. I forget what he asked me to do but it involved counting or something like that and all I said was "you can't ask me that I just came from 50 cent beers" and oh man did he make fun of me the whole night haha. Every time he would show a card he would walk up and put it real close to my face and ask me if I know that number. He called me 50 Cent more than once. I was the butt of all the jokes that night. At the end we got a great picture with him and the lady in yellow (his wife? I believe) and he signed some packs of cards for us. Awesome dude awesome lady awesome show. I recommend it to everyone.

[@Klamageddon]

Yeah, it's kinda weird, because there's only really one trick here which is controlling the three. We see him give the 20 to the guy who goes off and puts it in the modified card (then gives it to him as the elephant), like that part is all so obvious that it feels like part of the joke. Likewise him hiding the deck behind the nachos is very clearly telegraphing shenanigans. It's the manic bizarre performance of it that's the show, not the misdirection. And like, it's amazing! I want to see more of that, that's not at all a criticism. But it can't possibly be an element he's trying to fool them with. So it ends up just being a question of, how does he control the three to hand it off in the first place. There are so many ways to accomplish that, it seems odd to think you'd fool Teller with that alone, and he knows them both really well. He can't possibly be actually trying to fool them here, can he? I think, honestly, the publicity he gets from this (deservedly!) is probably the main reason for it. Unless there's some other small element that's hard to do that I'm missing? Either way, one of the best acts I've seen on this show.

This is proof of how much presentation matters. I love Piff, he's one of my favorite magicians, but I knew he wouldn't win simply because his tricks are classics. Now, that might sound like a bad thing, but it's really not. He presents classic magic tricks in a really fun, funny new way that is so much fun to watch. His tricks just happen to be the kind of thing that Penn and Teller know how to do inside and out, backwards and forwards.

[@vksasdgaming9472]

If I remember right those classic routines are cornerstone of magician's craft. Penn & Teller have said that cups n' balls-routine is most important as if magician can entertain audience with such an old routine they know everything about groundwork. Not every magician can be Houdini, Cardini or David Copperfield who pushed it further than ever.

Piff is similar to Penn and Teller in that the story is more important to trick than the actual illusion.

[@MrAndrewHowes]

The amount of energy in this performance is insane, it was captivating from beginning to end.

[@MoarCheeseBirb]

Alyson picking and signing a 3 of clubs was a soft force, and a pretty ballsy choice. Penn and Teller use the 3 of clubs as their iconic card for whenever they do that. Whenever someone picks a card, any card, that card is always 3 of clubs. Signing made it not matter, but still cool to see the reference.

[@Cheesus-Sliced]

I don't think it was actually a force, just coincidence. When they let you stop or keep going it's usually to show it's not a force. That said, he slipped the card out and put a sticker on the back, and having her count out the cards to verify one was missing was probably a bad move

[@enriquehernandez821]

The chips were definitely a mis direction to that soft force.

except she skipped a number and messed up, there were actually 52 cards that she counted.

[@vigilante8374]

​@@Cheesus-Sliced Doubtful it's a coincidence, especially since they're old friends... a wink seems pretty on point. Even without fancy sleights, it's very simple to do using rough and smooth as long as you can convince them to keep going. And if not, no biggie--either it was just a wink and it's ok if the card ends up different, or if it is important that it be the 3 of clubs he just DOES MORE NONSENSE and she ends up with that card anyway. (I mean can you imagine adding multiple outs on top of a trick like this? You'd never be able to guess that it was happening.)

[@conniethesconnie]

Piff may have planted the three but in the end it didn't matter what card Alyson chose all that was needed was a way to hide his passing the bill and card to the assistant in the tent so they could slap a second top on the card, drop the $20 bill in between, and prep it appear at the end of the trunk.

You don't need the trophy! I have been following you since 10 years ago. You have very loyal fans. I hope to see your show in vegas in the next few years (this pandemic needs to just go away).

[@jamesdean0885]

Such a magnetic performance, was so amazed I could have fell through my floor.

[@poke_hoard422]

Now that's a performance. One that you find yourself smiling throughout the entire video but don't realize until your cheeks hurt

[@chaosryans]

Watching so many performances with props and silliness, though the magic isn't usually really complicated it's a delightful display that oozes personality.

[@SethiozProject]

one of the most original comedy magicians i've ever seen. it's just about the right amount of comedy, most people nowdays over-do with comedy and just turn it into a dumb clown fiesta, but this was just about right. But yeah well .. hard fooling them with a card trick. Even tho you threw in all the comedy and non essential stuff, like bananas and pizza delivery and chips, it's still a basic card force and they know it well.

[@TheDisarminghinkle]

Are you suggesting Elfie forged their signatures, then?

[@Poshriel]

If you like piff, you should also look up The Amazing Jonathan. Dude was the first Magician comedian I had ever seen and to this day I go back and look at his stuff.

[@Moose1207]

@@Poshriel +1 For Amazing Jonathan ... That dude is well, Amazing. His magic is also basic but the jokes are hilarious and the presentation is on point.

[@ccanaves]

I'm in love with the lady in yellow... do your magic, Piff!

[@c99kfm]

90% performance, 10% magic, can't say it's the wrong ratio and certainly better than the other way around.

[@only1badass582]

Win or lose it doesn't matter. He fills those seats and gives the audience their money's worth. Great showman!

[@Ericbomb]

Yay Piff! I saw you in Vegas and it was unbelievably amazing!

[@OneNationSoul]

I love his character, unique, funny, very talented and what cute smile!

[@CaptainBlueShell]

*The only man dressed up as a dragon that can call Penn a 'B!tch' and still be loved for it*

[@NickMaovich]

those "or did I?" are the most hilarious things I saw this month :D awesome presentation!

[@gthourne]

Perhaps the funniest magic performance ever.

[@jrsixowfour8674]

your gift is spreading smiles and entertainment

[@nightmare62089]

You are one of the greats and watching you is always an absolute joy. I hope I can see you live one day. You've definitely won all of our hearts and respect so I don't necessarily think you need the trophy.......who am I kidding?! You deserve a damn trophy!

[@clockworkpotato]

Again: such a nice show. No losers. Everyone wins. A huge pleasure to watch.

[@jpjp9111]

Penn claiming that you guys are close friends is not a bad compliment.

[@buddyrich01]

Total BAD ASS! Loved your show last night at Sycuan. And your last trick at the end of the show, absolutely excellent! Thank you, thank you so very much for coming out and EVEN doing a meet and greet! Who does that anymore? And if they do, they want a ton of money to do so!

[@TheBearSpiceKitchen]

The cameraderie between Piff and P&T is heartwarming. 🏆🏆🏆

[@BlueBoySad]

Even without a trophy or a relic... still an amazing performer.. especially coming from the greats ..still a good magician.. never stop never give up always persue your dreams...✌️✌️💜

[@twiztedclown]

I love how Noone else gets this wasn't about piff actually winning a trophy it was about bringing in viewership to the show and platform again. I could tell from about 30 seconds in this wasn't an act meant to fool pen and teller but keep the audience laughing and entertained which is the majority of Piffs show. He's a comedian magician with his audience.

[@theeox]

That's how I felt watching it. I Love watching Piff but this was clearly just for entertainment more then a trophy.

[@EngeltheFallen]

Piff and his alter ego won a number of awards for his skills and creativity so obviously this was just done for fun. If I had to guess, his goal was to do the most convoluted trick he possibly could do in the time he had. His genius is definitely not in question as that first trick he did on the show is one of the most creative card tricks many have ever scene and something he did create himself.

[@rk12968]

Isn't that why every contestant is on the show and why Penn & Teller let them post the video on their YT channel?

[@commiehunter733]

Yep. You are right

[@cbernier3]

Everyone gets that.

[@Galastin]

The "yup, great, im free" at the end was fantastic

[@Gem-gi7km]

His tricks are quite easy to catch on and see what he is doing.... but the reason I like him is not for the "magic" element of his performance but because his performance are always extremely entertaining and funny :D

[@yuna_suzu1195]

I didn't know he had been on here before until this video. I was introduced to him on AGT. Loved him then and still love him now. He makes my day all the time.

[@Vincent_Beers]

First season

[@scottstewart9154]

Piff's assistant makes this act and him the best magician ever

[@williamd.3140]

I was wondering if drag referred to her.

[@steve_1313]

Piff and penn are an amazing combo! I’d highly recommend everyone go listen to all the Sunday school and piff pod podcasts where they are together. Absolutely hilarious!

[@tuoyoedukugho1807]

Piff the magic dragon will definitely be one of my favourite comedy, this guy should make a movie

[@Molandria]

I lover how he makes the pens vanish! It's MAGIC! (flies off to stage left)

[@diaguilar]

Yeah, how did he do that??

[@Molandria]

@@diaguilar Magic Dragan Magic for sure!
