The secret is so simple and satisfying, it's one of those cases where the most impressive part is the misdirection. Having a guest on stage, scattering packing peanuts on the floor in the beginning, using a bird's-eye view, using a simple flimsy cardboard box, revealing the contents of the box in the end, the gimmick was so cleverly hidden. It wasn't about forcing Penn and Teller to guess one obvious method out of several, it was about carefully choreographing a routine to completely mystify them.

It's such a nice explanation because it doesn't "ruin" magic. When you explain ball and cup tricks it makes the whole thing un-magical. When you explain this trick, it's just such a funny way to pull it off! Obviously there were easier methods like pocketing the peanut, which would've visually been the same. But Penn and Teller would've easily guessed that. This is just an awesome way to pull it off that's super simple yet virtually impossible to guess!

So, you essentially let you Freak Flag Fool. Some people see a box half empty, your audience sees a box half full. Thanks so much for revealing the secret. That's what I love about Penn & Teller - they always have a number of tricks that they reveal to the audience, and a trick revealed is every bit as charming as a secret trick to me, because I can appreciate just how hard the darn thing is to accomplish when someone shows me how hard it was to accomplish. ETA: The camera people and editors of the show must have been in on it, because the cut away from you while you removed the marked peanut from the box, and they showed an overhead shot of you IN the box full of peanuts, but only after you removed the cloth and had it hidden from view.

Eric in the introduction at Penn and Teller: "No red herings, no weird moves to make them think something else..." Eric in this explanation: "We kind wanted to throw them off a little bit..." Alex: "And they know about change bag." Yes, exactly. And that was what they guessed in the end. That the peanut "went into a container". So you fooled them by using a red hering although you promised not to use a red hering.. Then again, P&T always say (that is Penn says it) "Magicians always lie!"... And they are right.

@YayapLives 4 жыл бұрын

I more took from 'weird moves' that that the trick wasn't based around purposely "flubbing" a trick. like including a "flash" to make them think they saw the trick. The trick itself was pretty unique in terms of scale. but yes the red herring thing was a straight lie.

One question: How did you catch the one peanut sitting on top of the cloth? Because when you jumped into it, you went straight through and everything must have been mixed together.

@Allen-L-Canada 2 жыл бұрын

maybe the cloth folds itself somehow and wraps around the one peanut?

September 2020: Dangerous act on Fool Us: Magician covers himself with glue and jumps into a box of knifes

@idv22 4 жыл бұрын

That was a genius trick Eric! I love to try and figure out on my own how tricks on Fool Us™ are done and a lot of the time it's easy to spot switches or forces when you have the ability to slow down the video, go frame by frame and look at every detail but with your trick, none of that helped. I think it's very brave and honest for a magician to reveal their trick and I wish more magicians would do so. It's fun to be fooled but it's even more fun to be able to fool others. Anyways, you have earned yourself another subscriber and I can't wait to see Alex's trick in September. Wish you all the best and I look forward to see your future KZfaq content. Edit: P.s. I wouldn't mind taking that nutcloth

This was an excellent trick, very enjoyable and smartly done, especially that I didn't even think about the packing peanuts not actually being there which should have been the first thought with how often empty isn't empty etc in magic- the diversion and 'belief set up' on this was brilliant and I'm sure would have many who've seen this having a d'oh moment for missing this possibility, you just made it a given to the audience that the box was full, perhaps that twist on empty was a clever way to catch us off guard with a real 'shoulda thoughta that' sucker punch. The madcap entrance, the fact we see all the peanuts fly before you start the trick (or so we think!- for any magicians this shows the best time to trick your audience is before the trick starts in their eyes- the analytical brain is more likely to not have kicked in yet and thus accept things at face value that act as blinkers when the trick proper starts), all of it staging-wise, made it very possible to not even be looking for that bit of obvious.

this is hands down one of my favorite magic tricks of all time. i saw the penn and teller performance, was stumped, and then watched this video. i thought the performance itself was kind of meh (just bc i've seen a LOT of penn and teller, it was still an amazing act), but learning the secret to this trick made me love the trick even more. this trick exemplifies the very soul of a magic trick: to make something so simple seem completely impossible. the method behind this trick is so damn simple, but it was so well covered and completely outside the box (pun intended) that it becomes mind blowing in practice. i know this means next to nothing coming from a random youtube comment but VERY good trick, sir
