@@LeclericShow And I mean that. The mentalist they have on there now he's okay. And I certainly Miss Jason ss the host!!

Hahahhahaa!

Your comment with that prof pic though I can hear it 😂😂

Same with my father! xD

Penn didn't really give many details, though. The moment he mentioned the "container" for the hero so plainly, I thought it very probable that they were fooled. They never do that unless they're fooled.

oh buddy! Trust me I was CRUSHED when I heard the tone he was using

Eric Leclerc I worried for a second there too because if you didn’t fool them and they were speaking pretty straight forward with a code, that would be a bummer, it’s such a great perform and I really enjoyed it.

@@LeclericShow I could only imagine the bead of sweat rolling down the most uncomfortable places waiting for Penn to say ya FOOLED US!

Same here. I was like "is Penn trying to communicate something in code or did he fool them?" and then Penn's like "You fooled us!". Came out of nowhere XD

Remember it's all scripted, the contestants know whether they'll be accepted or not before the show begins. The show is for us after all, not for the judges

OrchidAlloy the contestants don’t know whether they will fool Penn and Teller or not...

@@ElieElKhoury19 Maybe you're right, I was thinking how the judges usually know what's going to happen

@@OrchidAlloy the magicians show the trick and show how it is done to the judges. They are only used so that the magician cant lie to penn and teller.

@@OrchidAlloy some tricks are scripted and communicated with audience n penn n teller

I haven’t seen how it was done yet, but I’m guessing the peanut he “found” is not the same as the one Teller signed. Since he got a good look at it before dropping it in, he could have a pen hidden in the box in a way he could find and use it to draw the number on any of the peanuts.

Eric revealed how it's done and you're not far off😊😊😊

you're 💯 right

Yeah that put me off at first too, but he won me over as the performance progressed. And he looked so crushed when Penn started to give him all those backhanded compliments, couldn't help but empathise.

@@ImVeryOriginal In this show, if he gives compliments, you failed.

This acting would have be weird for a card trick, but since he basicly glued himself and dove in peanuts, it works.

H

@@zacbru Huh, interesting how different peoples' tastes are. I thought he was absolutely wonderful beginning to end haha. He could've done a Hindu Chicago Opener, and I'd have been enthralled just by his personality :P

He wrote the letter T..... lol

His favorite amendment is actually the fifth. He uses it constantly.

Whos isn't?

@@benclaypaper4524 I have a love for the 2nd

@@RowdyBrian17 us bearers are gonna have a great time in the coming years.

Lol

Well spotted. Weird.

Weird. Also the white paint on his chest is different afterwards

Wow!!!! Now that's really weird. Good eyes 😎

@@punchforpound2808 So someone in one clip didn't react the way YOU think they should, therefore everything is fake.

They film a dress rehearsal, then use both sets of footage

good call!!! lol

I agree. I also think he already knew what it would be. I mean, come on. What has Teller been known for? His non-verbal participation. So, you ask him to put down his favorite right from the constitution... it's going to be #1, freedom of speech. I think he had pre-made 1s in his outfit and just picked the one that matched Teller's. It's a good trick that could have went wrong had he assumed wrong. If not that, it has to be the type of peanuts he had Teller choose from. I'm assuming they could have been possibly magnetic, the marker had some element that made it magnetic, or the peanut was pre-coated in a chemical that made it react to a black light or something in the blindfold. I mean, why have him select one from a pre-separated bag of peanuts and then use tongs to drop it in instead of having Teller come up or have the assistant pick one out of the box and hand it to Teller to write on and drop it back in the box? This shouldn't have fooled them.

@@geraldeaves3340 It's... not a 1. It's a T. For Teller. He told him he could just initial it, the amendment thing was a joke. 😅 But he also said to initial both sides, and Teller didn't, and neither was the end result. Also, the peanut had the same chunk missing.

Talk about sacrificing for your art lol

@@geraldeaves3340 the amendment thing was just a joke...

was unreal! :)

100th like

@@LeclericShow I gotta ask, how did you do it? You jump in the box. We hear the SCRITCH sound of the blanket coming lose. The Peanut is on the blanket, and you are blindfolded. Wouldn't the force of the jump just chuck that peanut into the air? What if it ends up under your shoe, you'll step it down into the rest of the packing peanuts. Did you practice with the placement of the peanut drop, and the placement of your feet as you jump hundreds of times just to get it right?

Ex0dus111 I feel as if he may have wrote on another peanut because he saw what Teller wrote so he could have made a copy while in the box

@@Ex0dus111 He said in a comment on the explanation video that he picked it up before jumping, while going around the box, but that part was cut out on the TV edit so we can't see it

Clearly you missed 2:21

Kyle Leon I agree. You can really see his heart and soul went into performing this. So much respect :)

The whole group/crew of friends seem close. Its killer to see hard work paying off for any of the members of their crew.

​@@dowhatmakesyouhappy7002You don't need to put the name. It's obvious who you're referring to without it.

I thought I recognized him!

thanks

Ohhhhh. I remember that now.

YES. This is where I recognized his name from.

OMG THAT'S HIM

He sounds like him a lot really. Could be cousins.

Lol YES

pretty sure this guy is discount Ryan Reynolds

I thought the same! Lol

@@NightGuardianAce people wont know you're referring to honest trailers lol

I get a sub!

Why would it need to be kept separate though? He still had the marker when he went in the box didn’t he? Wouldn’t it be just as easy to write on another one?

@@GhostSal He could try to fake Teller's mark, but it would be quite hard to make him believe it.

@@GhostSal I find "faking" it the most boring ones , it's like cheating. And magic is like ... magic. Faking is lame and takes away from the act , because you can always compare the two at a stop screen and easily tell when it's being fakes or not. Hence breaking the whole concept on the spot.

yeah it is a possibility.....but y are you wrong

Idk how he did it but I would have had the ziplock.of peanuts contain special peanuts with iron pellets in them, and had a really strong magnet on me.

ForMoney -§- Hey! That’s an intelligent guess! Very rare under magic videos. But for a trick that big, he’d need a MonsterMagnet.

"Write your favorite Amendment" ....99% of people are going to write the number 1. I'm sure he had planned if it wasn't.

That would have been my guess too

Who?!

That means so much Ameer! Thanks so much bro!

Yeahh

Pretty obvious how it was done

@@brianmagicman3556 Penn and Teller, 2 of the most renowned magicians in the world, could not figure it out and you somehow managed to, if you did good on you mate but like Penn said the most important thing isn't to fool people but to put on a good and innovative show.

Reminded me of my Honeymoon.

I interpreted that part to mean: "We can probably guess how you did it, but reality TV is about entertainment and fooling us is a gimmick, so you win" :)

I can't imagine why anybody would want to earn aliving diving inot a huge cardboard box full of packaging material so why not give the secret away.

Bang on the money!!

I've looked at the shapes and everything the peanut dozen times, and reconstructed it's geometry. seems to be the same one

@@samallcott5171 just watch the video where he reveals the trick. It has nothing to do with rewriting the number. Teller was close with his guess.

the box had a fake botton, before he trowed the peanut he made it upside down. When he jumped inside he got the peanut and his weight destroyed the fake botton. You can see that when the box is at his side you can see the fake botton 6:31.

Jokes are always better when they're explained.

@@phoenixfire6482 Looked like a 1 to me. He asked him to write the number of his fav amendment. Why would Teller make a T. Also, almost everyone would write a 1 on the spot like that. That or maybe 14.

@@TP_Gillz It's clearly a T. You can see it especially well when it's in his mouth. He asked him to write his favorite amendment as a joke then two seconds later told him to simply sign it. I don't even know why this is a discussion but whatever.

That’s kinda racist I know you didn’t mean for it to be tho

St. Jimmy sometimes racist people say all asians look the same and he’s implying that by saying Fabien and that guy look the same, I’m not really sure how to exslpain it and I don’t think this guy had any intentions of being racist but I can’t be the only who thought what I did when I read the comment.

@@owendoesthings231 Or maybe people are just making jokes based on stereotypes. It's called context.

@@owendoesthings231 that's stupid...

@@owendoesthings231 The dude on the right is literally Fabien as well, he has the same shirt on underneath his jacket. At 5:33 you can see him standing out in front of the audience, too

It was that obvious it did not occure Penn and Teller.

To each his or her own. Couldn’t finish the video - too much “showmanship” …

She's such a scaredy cat.

Yes because the guy is a huge fraud

Wow!!! Amazing message to read this morning!!! 😻 all the best!!

If this is how he is all the time I'd go mad how annoying

@@slyguy1798 and that's why u have no friends

Yes, so helplessly good. We can only imagine what kind of catcher mechanism he used.

Thanks Shawn!! Means a lot! That was 6 months of my life crammed in 8 minutes! :)

Dang. That is good

He used a cloth that looked like peanuts to create 2 seperate compartments he dropped the peanut onto the cloth so it didnt get mixed up with the others. while in the box he stuffed the cloth down his pants. i think, mayb, he shoulve not looked at the peanut maybe so it wasnt posible to have signed a peanut that looked like the same one like u said.

@@danm7298 You can see the entire top of the box and all the extra peanuts move across the surface. This is very unlikely how he did it. Additionally, that would be much more difficult to be 100% accurate with this method. The method I mentioned is 100% every time.

@@iWinttv yes it is how he did it. He has a video where he explains how. those r the peanuts in the one compartment. On the other side of the box there r no peanuts. Because of the cloth that seperates the two sides like i said

@@iWinttv He has a video showing how he does it. i promise thats how he dies it. the peanuts you see are one the one side. the bottom of the box in the second compartment doesnt have any peanuts.

That entrance winded me for the entire performance lol

@@LeclericShow LMFAO unreal how adrenaline dump just hinders everything. Could not tell though my man.

@@jayturcotte7928 i use to work nites and everyone was tired we all took caffiene pills and drinks.by the time lunch rolled around.we were dead tired.and most of that crew had 2nd jobs togo to after ha.i felt horrible for coming up with the suggestion

Explain

@@thegadgetzone hard for me to tell on a small screen but does the cloth show itself as he's jumping around? That's my only guess. It wasn't fully tucked into his pants and you can see it out the back I think.

He asked if he had placed it directly in a container or whether he had let it flutter down. He answered it fine.

@@hainsay I'm so sorry

When was he in Psych?

but hes blindfolded?

good guess, but all of the peanuts in the bag were normal packing peanuts.

@@amrisleepy How can you tell when he is in the box?
