RYAN & JOHNNY HAYASHI - Father & Son Magicians on Penn & Teller FOOL US - Cups & Balls

[@isaacgun]

The fact that Ryan chose to perform cups and balls to P&T just shows that fooling them ain't the real reason he's here. Giving his son exposure and experience is. Great father indeed. Huge respect to both Ryan and Johnny.

[@dmt99vn]

its so fun to watch and entertain

[@staycalmandrelaxed5724]

I just noticed the audience Is all on cameras lol almost didn't notice it till I paused it.

[@sizzlethestozzle8885]

Yeah cause you can see every move really

[@MrReyes-bq1xh]

P&T have said it before: The show isn’t really about fooling them. It’s about providing the world great entertainment.

[@SnapquesterMage]

Yeah, I would rather watch this amazing fun routine than be fooled by something more bland!

[@busybillyb33]

I'm fooled. I didn't think Ryan looked old enough to have a grown assed son like Johnny.

[@ryanlichti1543]

That guys voice sounds like he should be on a commercial or something lol

[@shocalremix]

he's a public speaker. Does Business seminars and stuff

[@imma5269]

Anime villain

[@numberkruncherr]

Worth watching just for the monologue.. "And I've forgotten I'm human"

[@Commenter_69]

Who cares if it’s cups and balls or any older trick whatsoever. It’s a great story and a trick done in a unique way through your super fun and entertaining monologue. A really really enjoyable act 👏

[@tresconik]

I read that in Hayashi's voice

[@aphroditae898]

i like the game grumps reference of your name and profile picture :)

[@spectreshot8536]

I can tell you're a Game Grumps and Shoocharu fan. Well done, sir.

[@Katarax]

but it didnt fool them... they do 4 handed cups and balls... its not something they couldnt follow

[@bionda470]

I don't think you wanted to fool them with cups and balls, you just wanted to show this amazing act! And you succeeded

[@Phreak0matic]

Agreed, they were never going to fool Penn and Teller with the cups and balls.

[@jamesreed5678]

A lot of tricks on the show are just filler. In these cases, there's no intention of fooling Pen And Teller. The show is first about entertainment, not fooling. And, even most of the time the duo claims to be fooled, they weren't.

[@chrispham6599]

[@assmane999]

How is this guy a father of a kid that age. Looks like he’s 35 at oldest

[@xmarksthespot1372]

@@jamesreed5678 So sometimes Penn and Teller lie about being fooled by a trick? Lol then there's no point in making the show about fooling them for a trip to Vegas, if it's soley about Entertainment.

[@afeudale]

This was awesome! Less about fooling...more about an epic, well coordinated performance!

[@richihtet7885]

This guy Ryan always amaze me whenever he put on a show. In fact, his scripts are the best magic any magician ever created.

[@PhilBagels]

I'm not a magician, but I know some magicians, and usually, I can follow everything they do when they do cups & balls. With your four hands, I could not follow all the moves, even if I manage to guess correctly what you did and when. One of the greatest versions of cups & balls I've ever seen! Well done!

[@a20axf]

Absolutely, they were fascinating and Ryan is such an entertaining performer! I think it makes it even more impressive when you know how it's done but, the execution is so high quality that you can't catch them. I may have spotted something a couple of times but, not well enough to say for definite although it would've made sense logically.

[@henrytawnn8694]

Penn & Teller do a cups and balls routine with clear plastic cups, and even then, they do it so fast, I have to slow it down to see all the moves. It's a simple trick but done flawlessly, just like the Hayashi's.

[@al201103]

In Jazz music, there are "standards" - a set of songs from up to 100 years ago which never go out of style. Every musician will encounter them, great musicians will bring a new interpretation or twist, and once in a blue moon you'll get an incredible musician who will take an old song that's been heard so many times, and bring it to a completely new level. That's what you did with cups and balls. So entertaining - wish you the very best of luck!

[@vilecorrupt]

sounds interesting do you know of any I can check out ?

[@al201103]

@@vilecorrupt A KZbin search for Jazz Standards will give you a good start. Typically songs written by Harold Arlen, Rodgers and Hart, Rodgers and Hammerstein, Cole Porter. Ella has the "songbook" albums which collect songs by single composers. Let me know in here if you're still stuck!

[@rickyoon1446]

As someone who does magic and jazz trumpet as well, this is an amazing analogy, couldn’t have said it better!!

[@HimanshuGhadigaonkar]

You couldn’t have said described it better

[@edkobylus1753]

Wow. Taking a classic to a whole new level. As Penn mentioned, so well scripted. Great to see the father - son dynamic. Absolutely love this act.

[@hungfao]

I only came to see Ryan's act. Of course, it's cups and balls, but it's also Ryan. That alone holds great entertainment value. It doesn't get dull with repetitive viewing.

[@redplanet76]

That’s probably the best cup and balls routine ever done. I mean we’ve all seen how the illusion is done but your performance was just outstanding. Best ever.

[@Foxphinx]

I mean we all know I mean ya i mean we know we KNOOWWW we have seen i mean blkjhabsdf jkvaevfnz ...just had to fkn say it. Yall are so annoying.

Did you see "Gazzo" from the british season of Penn and Teller? hahahaaa

[@nicholasklangos9704]

When they brought out the big silver balls that blew me away! Wonderful!

[@eliteextremophile8895]

The levels of misdirection with Ryan are just phenomenal. There's the energetic dialog with whimsical charm. Strong and precise movements and much more, but the part I love with this style is those false sleigh of hand moves to trick people that are trying to keep up. And Johnny. Oh boy, what a talent. Absolute joy this act. Love it.

[@cfov]

I love the patter. It is so original. A mix of Ancient Japan mixed in with 1960s California used car commercial. LOL A lot of fun and a beautifully clean performance.

[@GuilhermeCarvalhoComposer]

As a composer this is very inspiring indeed: excellent build-up, incredible mastery of the form and just an amazing counterpoint of text, gesture and surprise. Phenomenal job!

[@blakejohnson3767]

Such a beautiful and elegant performance, great job Ryan and Johnny!!!!

[@singhamgadhvi1875]

My favourite magician on fool us. Love you Ryan . Love from India ❤️

[@catoblepag]

The overconfident attitude and the epic monologue are so entertaining that for once I didn't really care how it was done... I just enjoyed the show with a big smile on my face.

[@dannychaos3281]

That was the most epic Father and Son monologue in existence!

[@nickverbree]

It doubled the psychological DAMAGE

[@josephtaylor3857]

To continue with your Star Wars reference, "Now there are two of them." "Always two there are. No more, no less." Excellent version of the cups and balls. Loved every second of it! :)

[@JacaboBlanco]

Love this man lol. His schtick is just perfect

[@jbillo6564]

Congratulations both, what an accomplishment at 16 yrs old for Johnny, very impressive stuff.

[@adrianmcgachie]

It might be cups and balls, yet the skill here still astounds!! It's enchanting magic for a very good reason!

[@jwill294]

Ryan not only a world class Magician, but he’s a world class performer! He could make reading the phone book entertaining.

[@jagerzaku9160]

Absolutely fantastic

[@happalula]

you just know you are gonna have a great time when the magicians have exceptional style

[@DavidUng]

This gave me similar vibes to your first Fool Us appearance! Start slow and simple so as to lull us into a false sense of security and comfort, then turn it up to 11 with an EPIC ending of climatic proportions! Ossss!

[@Foxphinx]

...That is one Damn Good Dad... What I'd give hahaha Ey man, I know your Son loves you incomprehensibly.. How awesome of a connection and life..

[@coltbusick6644]

One of the oldest tricks in magic made to feel fresh and exciting! I was grinning like a little kid watching it. Well done to both father and son!

[@mudkipfan2420]

Ryan is awesome

[@NetAndyCz]

It takes a real magician to make the oldest trick in the book interesting, and you two have managed just that. It may have not been fooling for everyone, but it was entertaining, and that is more important. And I do not know anyone who can do magic trick more epic than Ryan :p

[@tanmaytikle8521]

Who else can't wait for Johnny to perform a solo act and fool them ❤

A great trick, but the Joy of the Father took the best of Ryan here. There was far more joy than epicness, unfortunately. I still have printed in my mind the MOST EPIC MONOLOGUE IN HISTORY OF MAGIC! Love you both!

It's not only the best cups and balls, it's the best routine to be on fool us.

[@adriansolis5362]

Phenomenal performance! I'm keen enough to catch most of the moves, but that doesn't mean any of that was less magical to me. That ending was incredible and totally fooled me. I'd love to see more from the two of you!

[@tepetti]

Takes balls to perform this trick on Fool us

[@funtimenetwork]

I think P&T don't let just anyone come on and do cups and balls. Ryan and Johnny's rendition is so entertaining and fun. But so is also the other bloke that did cups and balls on Fool Us. Penn made some comment then that it isn't the song it's the signer. And I've seen... four versions of cups and balls now and even though I see some of the moves I still find it to be thoroughly entertaining and fun to watch. So thank you Ryan and Johnny for adding the fourth version of cups and balls to my... well mental playlist of this routine. It's so much fun to watch Ryan perform and also see his son perform as well.

[@davidashworth5740]

the goku and gohan of magic, absolutely love the style and display of confidence. many come off as smug or superior trying to show confidence but this is all about just relishing the enjoyment of life itself, so rare, love it!
