Penn and Teller Fooled by an ENVELOPE?!? | Watch Michael Bourada on Fool Us 

Title is misleading, this man is not an envelope.

You didn't fool Penn and Teller, but you definitely fooled me!

Fooled by a title more like, but nice trick.

I'm impressed that Alyson can be anybody's lovely assistant effortlessly.

2:51 - the second picture is drawn. 5:22 - the first picture is revealed. Two different pictures. The hair, look at the red hair on Allyson’s pic.

The joke about cutting someone in half reminded me of a quote from Hugh Dennis: "When you said you could cut a woman in half...I assumed you were a magician."

Great job Michael. Always great to see another Canadian on the show. Keep it up!

2:54 and 5:25 are not the same picture. note the righthand long hair not the same curve.

I was sure Penn would refer to the "Scream" painting behind you and would mention that Munch actually painted 4 versions of the same painting. Weird he didn't do it.

This was a great performance that I watched at an amazingly perfect time. It's too much to mention here but I'll just say that I recently had dinner with Gene and greatly appreciate this performance doing him justice!

The key was the bird, he had a parrot that would mimic Alison's drawing, we all know parrots are good for mimic. He already had the picture of Alison as he drew it, but the parrot did the dirty work of replicating Alison's one. Well done though

That was an amazing trick. It fooled the heck out of me.

I loved the pun with the daughter's name. Just had to think twice about it. :D

Downvoted By A Random RU-vidr Looking At Videos?!?!?! Yes. And I didn't even have to make people wait to find out!

How do you strike a pose and not go straight Vogue?

They were NOT fooled. Why did you insinuate that in your title? I think I know why. In your "defense" you chose to use it as a question, but you now what you did, and we all know what you did.

I don't know why magicians go on this show and pull early level tricks like this. No shit you didn't fool P&T. What a waste of time. You could have at least pushed them.

6:57 Someone in the audience forgot to turn down their cell phone's volume 😆

Misleading title, they weren't fooled. Thumbs down.

Penn: Birds don't have arms, and you didn't fool us! You: OK I guess I didn't fool you. Me:...WTF?...

Nice job Michael. You could not fool Penn & Teller with your trick, but you fooled all of us here on youtube with the title of your video. You should be a proud magician ?!?!?!?!?!?

It's so cool when Penn talks in code.

He has excellent stage presence.

Liked the performance, but the click bait title gets a dislike.

Bro has a bluetooth board tat transfers the image

Michael I just want to say to you your an awesome and amazing Magician. I really enjoyed this video. I hope you read this comment. Leave my a heart if you did

Doesn't need that clickbait title though. :D

The photos of her are different. Look at her one arm, one is straighter than the other Not sure about the drawing of him, looks similar (maybe the feet are different?)

Not even going to bother to replay the video or anything just on the top of my head to figure it out- alsyon’s drawing got transferred when it was face down and she ‘signed’ it to the magicians drawing frame. There were duplicate drawings from the magician. The flap part is how the drawings changed from another, so the frames were gimmicked. He didnt even show the other side of the frame after the reveal part lol. Sneaky switching techniques there.

I think the paper wasn’t paper at all, and neither were the markers. I think they were drawing tablets that were connected via Bluetooth and programmed to display what was drawn on the other one

Despite the differences people have pointed out with the drawings, I still think this a really good trick by Michael - I've been going back and forth frame by frame and I can't see any actual switch, or actually detect anything suspicious when he slides it out of the envelope, other than doing so cautiously and horizontally. If a sheet of paper has to physically move from one frame to the other, then I can't see any flapping about (as Penn hints at), merely light coming off the glass which matches the reflections you'd expect. I'm highly suspicious about the frames themselves, and the way he tightly holds them together like that, but…

First envelopes fooler was John Archer and he was (and is) phenomenal. No criticism of this act meant. Just wanted a har tip to Archer for fooling them with envelopes

Great trick but why does it say you fooled Penn and Teller in the title? That was the only reason I clicked on the damn video and now I just think you're a liar, lol. Magicians are deceptive by trade but this? It's cheap, brother...

How many puns do you want? Yes!

Damn, the arms! How'd he catch it?

Note to advertisers! I will never buy anything from an ad that constantly interrupts my viewing pleasure. In fact, I will actively dissuade others from buying your product as well.

Imagine your first performance in Vegas being in front of Penn and Teller while trying to fool them. I would've been a nervous wreck.

One of the Frames changed its size but I still don’t get it.

2:32 did you get that one from Kanye? ahahah

I feel deceived by the title. I came to see them be fooled, but instead I was fooled. And fook the question mark idc.

I think I have an idea how it’s done, though I don’t get Penn’s bird reference 🤷🏻‍♂️

Nicely done, but I bet that trick wouldn't work with normal hand held white-boards.

Only ONE I would love to have the assistant say: "Well, no, thats not the picture you made of me/I drew". Of course it's easier for us on TV, but even with watching it once it was clear, that the second picture of Allison was not the one he drew first.

"Just a little bit of hair" *camera cuts to bald guy with massive beard*

Your kids show today in Ottawa brought me here. You called up my son Rico (red wings hat) at the performance and he had a blast. Thank you.

ok so i figured out the drawing of alison in the beginning is not the same drawing at the end

Penn noticed the pre-drawn picture of Alyson was different than the one drawn on stage.

Now that's a true artist he puts his artwork crap in other people's hands

So here I am at home watching this and I fooled you all because it seems I am the only one that sees the title that said Penn and Teller Fooled by ENVELOPE but they were NOT fooled

He stole the cap joke from Shawn Fahrquar

Easy trick really, the frames are gimmicks, that's why he didn't turn them on both sides at the end.

This guy just took someone else's trick off RU-vid. WTF.

How did he do it? Why were the drawings so subtly different?

But why is 2010 Penn in the background at 5:59 tho

Sadly Click-bait, as they were not fooled at all. (Sad face)

I been waiting for one of these performers to sniff the marker. 🤣

The picture did kinda look like her...

Gambling holds no appeal to me, and I think the atmosphere of a casino would get on my nerves. These kinds of shows are the saving grace that make Vegas intriguing to me. I wish you well in your career, and hope that your shows continue to become even grander with time.

Liked the video, didnt like the title. It bugs me that it wasnt right.

Pity he didn't turn them around to show them signed

Trust a Canadian magician to actually be funny

Fun idea and presentation, good routine, sir!

Never been huge on magic but I think it’s cool. I kinda understand after reading the comments how he got his drawing but how exactly did her drawing change? Likeee it was in her hands. And it was shown being put in the envelope while it was in her hands

This 8 min video needs more full length unskippable ads. Yup. Definitely. There was nowhere near as many full length unskippable ads as I would have liked. Please add several more full length unskippable ads.

Nice video, shame about the title.

Is it me or is Alison Hannigan really annoying ?

1/ Look he hold the frames stick together: the picture is printed on the other frame 2/ Look at the end he doesn't display the signature, it's because only the picture changed and not the signature 3/ Look in his envelop his hand holding the frames and envelop: tricking something

I see the difference but can’t figure out

stole that Lexus joke from kanye

Well normally I can at least come up with something of how a trick is done even if the magician was so good I didn’t see anything, but I haven’t the first place to start with this one.

Didn't fool em..

Dislike this video. Clickbait title.

So a bird switched the pictures?

OK, I got it now :)= It is surprisingly simple and very very clever. I got parts of it at first but it took reading some comments and some slow-speed replay to nail it. Thing is - it's almost a self working trick. With some caveats but as a party trick it is excellent. Going to skip signing, though...

One of those tricks where I don’t bother to work out the exact process because there is so much fishy stuff going on with putting the frames together, not seeing what went in her envelope etc.

Got mugged off by the title..!!

May not have fooled them but definitely fooled me good job 👏🏾

You fooling no one . A pre drawsn pic of Alice. Concealed In one of the tick frames and switched . Seen this many times . How did it selected to be on pennn and teller . Such a known routine

I have loved hockey ever since I was a kid watching the movie Mighty Ducks. I’ve loved watching magic just as long.😊

I seen you at my school

Do you think Allison loses any sleep over not knowing how tricks work? I do

Misleading title?

In short: No, they're not.

Clickbait Title?!?

There is really no need to lie in the title. It was a cool trick, but the title isn't doing you any favours.

I miss Alyson 😢❤

I think when he ask Allison to check the envelope he was holding something like thin as paper inside with the envelope

“And she’s so precious, with the peer pressure, couldn’t afford a car so she named her daughter Alexis(A Lexus), now tell me that ain’t insecure”

Awesome! And from my home town!!

I still don't get it 😅 even with all the hints from both Penn and the comments.

Clickbait!

Obviously the picture frame props are gimmicked. There's a reason he kept them pressed firmly together throughout the trick even to the point of awkwardly holding them while Allison drew her picture. I doubt it would fool most people let alone seasoned performers like Penn and Teller.

Super

Clickbait

Fooled by click bait saying he fooled them . That was a waste

Wasted my time by a misleading title. Good work though.

wow

i love whem he makes the comment about a little bit of hair the camera man pans to another bald guy in the crowd 😆

Fooled by title. Dislike.

The bird's name was Friday.
