[@JLawL]

This made his career! He opens for Penn and Teller quite often now, even has his own show!

[@pascalslonina8655]

He even got his own Theater in Las Vegas after AGT

[@jeroenvannunen3061]

They are really good friends now

[@belindacook2250]

What I love as much as anything about this is the way they treat each other as buddies, being sarcastic to each other as guys will do, and taking it all in good fun.

The way he stares at them while doing it gets me every time XD

[@laughingachilles]

The sheer joy from Teller in response to this was wonderful.

[@rjkral]

The prize beyond the trophy is to appear as a guest in Penn & Teller’s show. Well, now Piff the Magic Dragon has his own super popular show in Vegas, can’t wait for Covid to get lost and go and see it!!! SUCH a great entertainer!

[@austenmanning6074]

What is it called (he’s my favourite magician)

[@funnyusername8635]

I've been binge watching magic, lately. I can't wait to go back to Las Vegas for shows. Also the Atomic Testing Museum because I'm that kind of nerd.

[@nervoussips2622]

He use this act on agt, the first act at that.

Well, you can't pretend he has an infinity of acts

[@8wheeledassassins.]

He invented this trick so it makes sense. John Vanderputt is his real name and he has been performing for a long time.

[@mr.jimbusiness6326]

actually he did this first on FU, THEN AGT

[@zengance1323]

its called a standup routine for a reason

I’ve never seen Teller show that much emotion. Lmao

[@patrickbyrne5070]

I love this so much. Thank you mate. You’re a G. 6:05 you cemented yourself as a legend and a friend to the most iconic magicians possibly ever. For over a decade and runnin. Fkin amazing. Real recognise real. Thank you for bringing that joy when it was needed most brother. I hope you’re doing well over there - you’re a truly unique talent.

I can explain it for you. 24 people gave it a thumbs down, and 22 gave it a thumbs up. Hope that helps. (And you're welcome).

If you look at the "Y" in Stacey, you'll see how the bottom of the Y goes onto the king then disappears

[@RabbiHerschel]

@@bornbrit777 according to people on the internet (always a reliable source) Penn and Teller actually were fooled by the trick, but their guess was close enough that Piff conceded anyway, and they found out after the show.

[@eddyganges3934]

@@RabbiHerschel that is correct. He said it on a podcast a few years ago. Piff knew early on forming a bond with Penn and Teller would be better than being knitpicky on the trick in the long run and he was right.

@@Kiproll26 I don't understand your comment, Kiproll. What does Puff the Magic Dragon have to do with Seussical the Musical? BTW, if you think Puff the Magic Dragon is about drugs, it's not. A clever lyrical analysis was done of the song hypothesizing that, but it's not the case.

@@Kiproll26 We seem to be getting our wires crossed! I made a reference to Puff, and you responded to me with a reference to Seussical the Musical and drugs. And now we're back to G. McFuzz, which was mentioned by the OP. I can't figure it out either. And I guess that's OK.

Stacey went home riding that dragon 😏😏

[@YouTubeallowedmynametobestolen]

At 6:04 people laugh really hard--Teller literally stomps his feet! But I don't see why. What happened there?

[@BulletHunterz]

Because nobody ever has had balls to come to their show, and as they are talking about fooling, they got the balls to not focus and instead eat a banana

[@YouTubeallowedmynametobestolen]

@@BulletHunterz Really? Because he took his first bite at about 5:40, but the really big laugh didn't come until more than 20 seconds later, at 6:04. But you may be right. Maybe the full impact of it didn't hit until that moment; sometimes you have to carry a that kind of insolence on for a while before it hits its full fruition. In any case, thanks for the response.

[@vkws828]

Pegasus if you rewatch it; he takes a second bite as they are beginning to speak to him. The laugh is caused by his indifference of the situation at that moment.

[@jonstiffer4994]

@@_wowzaimshook_9368 The dry is what makes it so good. A bored, slightly irritated guy in a dragon suit performing magic is brilliant. With more energy it turns into a clown show, which I guess is more suitable for American TV.

[@Blondie42]

And adding the music over Penn talking is supposed to do what? He said nothing inappropriate and didn't say how the trick was done. Just offered a guess suggesting that the Jack of spades ♠️ was over the top of the 9 of hearts ❤ which was wrong by Piff's confirmation.
