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.

@npip99 6 месяцев назад

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 года назад

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.

@jordontaff3495 4 года назад

I was one of the ones that thought you just wrote on a new peanut. But hearing how you actually did it, gives me so much more respect for the performance! Well done!!

@martins3776 3 года назад

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.

Its really cool to learn the "how" of these tricks because it shows how easy/hard it can be to fool anyone. Be skeptical everyone! :D

We didn't learn the how though. How did he get the right peanut when he jumped in the box? That jump must have broken the seal of the blanket.

@@mikamaldonado1784 First, it's Penn*, not "pen". Second, Teller wrote on the peanut, not Penn. Third, it is the same exact peanut. Teller writes the T upside down. You can look at the peanut as Teller holds it side by side with the peanut in Eric's mouth, and every ink mark and crevasse is exactly identical. It is the same exact peanut.
