Penn & Teller FOOLED! INCREDIBLE FUNNY TIME TRAVEL TRICK! / Fool Us / Noel Qualter

[@travellion2112]

They say that the holy grail of card tricks is "any card, any number," as in name a card, name a place in the deck, and that's where it appears. This has got to be THE CLOSEST THING I have ever seen to the Holy Grail. Peeking the card? Easy. Finding the card? Do-able. All without touching? Maybe. But naming the exact location after not having touched the deck at all?!? *Chef's Kiss* You're a scholar and a gentleman, Mr. Qualter. Well done, indeed.

[@noelqualter2278]

That’s incredibly kind, thanks!

[@HighStakesDanny]

yeah how????

[@biot2156]

As for "Holy Grail" of card tricks, I'm not so sure as most magicians who use cards (and really, are there any that don't?) typically know at least one ACAAN method. But of all I've seen I've never seen one even close to this! ...and I'm positive P&T have seen many other ACAANs than I have!! Absolutely wonderful, Noel!

[@riddersjc]

"the small one killed the tall one, I guess if a man doesn't speak for 60 years, a man can break..." - the funniest line ever to be delivered on this show. The trick was also superb.

[@noelqualter2278]

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed.

[@riddersjc]

@@noelqualter2278 no, thank you sir - hope to see you live someday!

[@sebastianrodriguezlemoine8013]

It's easy: The 'future you' knows the card because he's in the future. Piece of cake. This is awesome! Loved it!

[@WTU208]

The humour in this is top quality with even Piff the Magic Dragon making an appearance.

[@noelqualter2278]

Thanks!

[@roccobierman4985]

Clearly the man has simply lost his mind and created a time traveling device. Not sure what's so hard to understand about that. He laid it all out for us.

[@Joharxyz]

"the small one killed the tall one" was fucking hilarious. Wonderful act!

[@noelqualter2278]

Thanks!

[@darthbernstein9889]

Same trick without knowing the location wouldnt be too hard to replicate. But with the location of the card it makes this a true masterpiece, cant even imagine how u did it trophy well deserved!

[@JorWat25]

Any trick that involved letting the spectator shuffle the cards, and the magician not touching them after that, requires a very clever explanation. No wonder Penn went with something as bizarre as computer chips!

[@darthmid_gaming7875]

I've seen a lot of Penn and teller. Very few come close to actual magic. You not touching the deck at all blew me away. No wonder they were fooled.

[@intdawg]

i've seen almost every fool us episode too, and this is one of the very few tricks that i have legitimately no idea. not even a possible guess. as a few other commenters have said, i loved the assistant too. and i loved Noel's smug look the entire time he was talking to P&T (i mean that in a very positive way). he was like, "yeah, i already know there is no way they're going to figure this out"

[@mcstench8913]

hahahaha he was so smug when he said "no the decks examinable" i started dying laughing. just sent penn down a spiral

[@nome3795]

Sometimes I feel card tricks are getting old but then comes something like THIS and blows me away. Loved it!

I agree, my new fave Penn and Teller!

[@SaylerT]

You had the best assistant. He was definitely impressed, and that's got to feel great!

[@scribe570]

His face even got flushed from the emotion of having his card guessed. Very good assistant. And, to me, it shows they didn't video it four times.

Really nice guy too, I got to meet him after a show and he let me hold Mr. Piffles.

[@andyhighroller8217]

@@larsvanwieringen1336 i was worried when Piff landed on one of the “_______’s Got Talent!” And did his “you may have heard of my older brother” ZERO LAUGHS “Steve” Crowd loves it. I know the expectation is for him to say “Puff” (the Magic Dragon) but that’s why the first part of the joke immediately made me smile on my first time hearing it. I get Steve I’d the punchline but that means that they were already thinking this was just a play on Puff the magic dragon and bit hard on that.

[@eliasreuter-grelak164]

once a while, very rarely, you find videos that always motivate you to keep practicing magic and that still gives you a feeling of real magic, even as a magician. For me that is an old video from Lennart green and definetely this one. cheers, mate.

[@noelqualter2278]

Thanks so much Mahdi!

[@nickinlondon4644]

Even without the entertaining packaging the act itself was brilliant. I can easily see how you knew which card it was - but the position? No way! And even if you hadn't dismissed the microchip solution, no chip would not be accurate enough to tell you the precise position. So I am really baffled. Well done!

[@stoopidapples1596]

If every card had a chip, then you could probably easily order them by the way they interact with each other.

[@heatshield]

Remarkable! I've been working on a similar effect for about twenty years. I'm really glad you fooled them, so in another twenty years when I'm comfortable showing my hands-off trick, at least this video won't give away any secrets! hahaha Nicely done, pal.

[@loduk102]

I thought for sure it was exactly what Penn was thinking. Gotta be RFID cards. But then you said no. I was so sure of the answer that my head exploded when I heard that. Bravo! Thank you for fooling me.

[@MikerBikerB]

Did he say there is no radio involved?

[@loduk102]

​@@MikerBikerB he didn't say no radio was involved. But he did say that Penn can inspect the cards, indicating no "computer crisps" as Penn called them. Hence no RFID was involved.

After a rewatch, I think I got the first part and have a clue about the second. Even because & despite of that, this has to be one of the loveliest routines I've ever seen :) Simply wonderful and heartwarming :) What makes this trick even better is your assistant. It feels so natural and casual, and it HAS to be. Else he would be the best actor I've ever seen :D

[@noelqualter2278]

Thanks very much, glad you like the routine I worked so hard on. You don’t actually think the spectator is an actor, do you? Please don’t try and guess how the trick is done. I created something I hoped would be beautiful and it took a very long time, I’d like to keep it that way.

[@Khunvyel]

@@noelqualter2278 oh no the spectator IS genuine! I'm sorry, maybe I botched that because I'm not a native english speaker and my phrasing was off :) What I wanted to say is that the trick becomes so much more refreshing and heartwarming BECAUSE of your assistant being the genuine article :) And don't worry, I would never spoil anything! The only time when I really injected myself in a speculation of how a trick was done has been on the routine where Penn uses the nailgun because over a 100 comments later people were fighting over things that were nonstarters, and didn't even consider the obvious things that nobody addressed yet. I usually pick up on things fairly quick and did a bit of magic on my own in the past :) I have great respect for the imaginative mind that comes up with the tricks and am not one of the ones who go through a trick frame by frame and try to analyze what they see. That's why I also tried to make my own tricks and not just regurgitate routines. Because often a trick is in the method, not the visible. Actually, knowing how a trick is done is often giving me even more respect for the magician and the joy watching, because I can fully perceive the skill and mind involved :) And to that I say; man your stuff was awesome and a joy to watch. I'm unlikely to figure the trick out by watching, and my hunches might easily be nonstarters. And even with the hunches I'm not even sure if they are enough to unveil it. You were one of my absolute top favorites on "Fool us" and I'm really glad I found you this way to enjoy more of your marvels! :)

If I knew how it was done I would totally say so and just wait for you to delete my comment, but I'm completely baffled. I know how a lot of it could be done, although it would be quite difficult and take a lot of practice, but calling the position after it was shuffled by someone else, and never touching the deck after that point makes this outright wizardry. If this were the 16th century I would notify the inquisitors. And since I know your volunteer is not a stooge, because that's not allowed by the rules, this makes your trick better than Criss Angel's entire career. Well done!
