RYAN HAYASHI on Penn & Teller FOOL US - Complete Performance With EPIC EMOTIONAL ENDING

Big coins were in the box the entire time. The coins weren't under tha cards.. I caught it at regular speed. But I had the advantage seeing it more closer than Penn& Teller

[@DL-kc8fc]

​@@mcham0846 :) The big coins were under two cards on the deck of cards in preparation. They were hollow and inserted. If the magician turned the big coins, they would be missing the bottom. Also, I did not use slow-motion footage and watched the video normally, like all other videos. I enjoyed the magician's art because his strategy of performing a long series of tricks did not allow focusing on a particular trick. Of course, I saw a few coins falling over the edge of the table and the hand just simulates holding a coin, but somehow it has to be done when the supernatural does not exist and it did not spoil my positive impression at all. He is just a great manipulator and he deserves a trophy.

I love the reason he got the trophy. It was basically Penn saying, "we don't know how you did it, because we stopped paying attention to the technical minutia halfway through."

[@DivineRedwood]

*They knew how he did it,* it a very common trick, but rarely done, because it's a challenge to learn. Most magic shops show you a dumbed down version of it that you can buy for a few bucks. *They gave it to him because his technique is epic.* Penn has explained in the past that it isn't always about "fooling" them per se, it's about impressing them and that was very impressive.

[@8-bitsarda747]

@@DivineRedwood like I said, they stopped paying attention to technical minutia about halfway through

[@esta7763]

@@DivineRedwood True. Magic isn't always so much about hiding the secret to how he did it. It's about entertaining, putting on a show, and leaving an impression. I don't actually know how he did it ( I'm not a magician ) but I'm sure if Penn and Teller saw it again and was looking for it, they could figure out how he did it. However, it doesn't matter if they could find the secret or not. The big thing is he was able to entertain them and impress them the way Penn and Teller did to him many years ago. If there was an act worthy of getting a trophy for showmanship and skill, this would be it.

[@KYskeptic]

@@esta7763 I watched this video one time and, after having seen so many of these fool us things on youtube i could easily see every single move he made, except for maybe two. But again, that isn't the point. it was a struggle to keep up with each hand because when one is doing something the other also is, and... yeah. hell of a display of the mastery of what one can do if they dedicate themselves to something, what an excellent display of skill. ..... The thing that really gets me.... and I kind of alluded to this before, is that I was following his moves, and ... if you watch the video, each fairly obvious, but.... to see them all at once... you cannot keep up. That's the important thing, you might catch one move, but dude is already half way into another and then suddenly a coin appears out of nowhere that YOU CANNOT KEEP UP WITH. Maybe the absolute masters of the craft can look at this and say something different, but to the average person, this one is a knockout for sure.

[@JoshuaWillis89]

@@DivineRedwood the way I think of it is: if after watching the act, Penn and Teller cannot replicate it, it’s deserving of the trophy. I don’t think Penn was lying. I genuinely believe he gave up trying to figure it out. Obviously, they know the essentials of the trick. That’s probably true of every act they watch. They’ve admitted to giving out Fooler trophies based on a single part of the act they couldn’t figure out.

His tricks truly were “magic in its simplest form”, absolutely divine sleight of hand with concealment techniques which he could have possible invented himself. You could watch closely and follow his movements, but after a while it just gets too overwhelming because he’s doing so many things in such quick succession. And don’t get me wrong, I’m sure Penn and Teller roughly know how he did it, but the fact that he was able to make the sharpest of observers lose track of what he did, is in itself the “essence” of the trick. Definitely well deserving of a “Fool Us” trophy

[@augustuscampbell1313]

[@Jaeger556]

This is one of only maybe 2-3 acts of fool us I can watch over and over and over again and be as giddy the 15th time watching as the first , it might be the simplest form of magic but done to a degree of utter perfection that you can’t help but enjoy. Just the whole act is amazing and really hope this guy is doing well I know this was from a few years ago

[@vibes5805]

My favourite part is still when he says "hi, how are you?" and tells the audience it means "time to get my freak on!"

[@liba01]

よろしくお願いします (yoroshiku onegaishimasu) doesn't quite mean "hi, how are you?" either. It's rather something like "nice to meet you" or literally "please treat me well". But yeah, that part was kinda hilarious.

[@TheLocalOaf]

All right, after watching this video several times, pausing and taking notes and going frame by frame, I've finally figured it out. It's magic.

[@theblackbaron4119]

It's actually really simple , but nonetheless impressive. He's using magnets, you can see the coin jiggle back to its position in the beginning as he accidentally moves it slightly and it snaps back to its position. And the cloth surface has holes/ pockets the coins travel under.

[@RubenDelight]

@@theblackbaron4119 the cloth looks too neat to have holes in them.. but you might be right as I don't really know how he did the first one where you can see the coins move with pure slight of hand. But he also definitely takes coins from under the table, and also picks up cards along with coins, and moves them seamlessly through his fingers. Same with the big coins he takes out of the deck of cards, and from under the table. I suppose a combo of magnetism and pure, incredible slight of hand, is possible.

[@MoCheezy]

@@theblackbaron4119 He's not using anything besides sleight of hand. Follow it closely and you can notice the moves. They key is to realize the 4th coin is never shown, because he already places it after showing the 3.

[@Keya3596]

I love how he was totally taken off guard when they said he fooled them. And honestly, I feel like them saying that they didn't catch what he did because they were enjoying the show is an even higher praise, because sometimes it's hard to keep from being cliche and make your show stand out as much as your magic.

A wise, Yoda like, master of the art, once told me that it's the man (or woman) and not the magic. Ryan is proof of this. Sure, his skill and routining are par perfection, but I could and would seriously watch him do just about anything, and I'd be completely entertained and beaming a smile ear to ear. What a contagious, infectious, good feeling. Kudos Ryan!
