This trick is actually really clever and contrary to what people in the comments say there is no fake signature involved. Well done! SPOILER BELOW The coin that is signed consists of two halves that can be separated. When signing, Brooke therefore signs one side of one half and one side of the other. Lau first shows both sides of the coin and then hands over one half to Peel. Peel only ever shows one side of the coin (with the signature) and orders Brooke to step away for her to not see the back of the coin. At 3:52 Lau inserts his half of the coin with the smiley into his nose. At 5:33 Peel hands over the second half of the coin to Lau with his right hand into Laus left hand. After getting his half with the smiley out of the nose, Lau puts the half into his left hand, where the second half is already waiting. After that he has the full coin with both signatures.
If u look very carefully, when they ask Brooke to verify her markings, 8.42-8:43 it seems like the coin is not fully back together, seems to be some sort of gap along the edge of the coin
when he flips the coin around in his hand he adds a fake signed coined behind it. Then when he shakes his hand he palms the real coin and passes the fake @@just-squirrels
@@just-squirrels yep and then Peel palms the other coin around the time Lau brings the glass plate across, and then hands it back to Lau at the same time as giving him the tweezers. Lau has good slight of hand to show two different coins and make it look like two sides of the same coin. You can even see at the end when he shows the marks to Brooke that he's holding two coins side by side. But it's a well constructed trick and they did well to send P&T down the wrong path with solving it.
@ch5851 Hi, just so you know it's sleight of hand, Not slight of. Many people do get it wrong & if just people enjoying the trick it doesn't matter; but if person comment like they know something about magic, or how the trick is done, then details it (exposes it) they should know & use the correct words/ terminology. Besides the magic side it is bad English to say "slight of..." sleight: use of dexterity, or cunning - as to deceive. So could say some things are sleight of mind, both in magic (post hypnotic suggestion for one example), or perhaps re being excessively overly influenced in everyday life by someone else. But slight of mind means something completely different. As "sleight" tends not to be used outside of magic anymore, suggesting an usage that would only work with sleight (not slight) isn't easy, but hopefully previous paragraph helps to detail why it's not "slight of hand". Although if the magician has small hands it could be :) :P Yeh, I know long comment, but hate people who correct someone in this way: *sleight of hand. (or, for anything that's incorrect). Without explaining why, as some people may just not know, & of course youtube (& other media) is world wide & many people may have English as a second language, so in both cases even being told something is wrong word doesn't help to learn why it is. (Of course in some instances though it's not even worth bothering; see comment by someone saying P&T weren't fooled, it was one of their give away awards. Clearly a person who doesn't know Fool Us works, since they don't need to be fooled by the Trick, but either just by one thing in it or not get correct guess/method in reasonable amount time - we see only about half of the fill-in between end of trick, & when the host hands over to P&T. Plus there's off stage executive adjudicator/producer & a magician who (& only person that is) been told prior how it work, & P&T have been overruled a few times, 3-4 times with the magician getting a trophy when P&T said they weren't fooled, but they got the analysis wrong, and twice when P&T did go to give the trophy but hadn't realised they'd said something that was correct when thought it wasn't.
Well, if the magician(s)can figure out an alternate way to do the trick other than the way P&T does it then you can probably easily pull it off, which seems exactly what they did here. The best tricks for fooling P&T are the ones that have multiple ways to pull off as you get a at least a 50/50 chance they guess wrong as to how it’s done even if they know more then one way it can be done.
@@danquaylesitsspeltpotatoe8307 @danquaylesitsspeltpotatoe8307 But by the rules of Fool Us it "Fool them" as they didn't know his method for doing the trick. Whether fooling them (by the shows definition) also counts as tricking them (by your definition) isn't important to me.
@@QualityAffordableGuitars of course i saw him puttin something when he was blowing the ballon .. and i think Penn and Teller saw that too … the only problem is the coin was then placed on the table and we saw it during the whole time… so either they figured a way to hev an identical coin( dublicate).. thats y at the end they put it in Brooks Hands to confirm f ts the same coin
Boy, that was absolutely fantastic! The balls that you guys have to do a trick so similar to Penn and teller's big trick is amazing! This act had it all. Humor, excitement, a little bit of disgusting added in there. Great job guys ✊🏼
@@BrendonPeelmentalistI loved your take on the bullet catch trick, both parts really showed themselves as different than P&T's version, and Penn's comment about you genuinely shooting at the face shows a huge difference with their trick that was quite impressive. The marker's mostly worn off, but I still have the case and bullet from being the audience member for their trick. It's amazing what you can do when you set your sights on the right thing :).
@@bradsnet at 3:57 the show adds an edited blur because the coin must have been too obvious, that's pretty out there considering if you freeze it a second or so earlier the coin is totally visible anyway. I'm sure the audience and Brooke on stage couldn't see anything based on how he was standing but either the cameras or the magicians screwed up the angles to prevent it getting caught on tape.
Two coins stacked on top. When she signs the coins, she signs one side of each coin. Front of coin 1 with the initials, and back of coin 2 with the smiley face. Lilau is careful to flip the coin stack with his hand covering so they can’t be seen together from the side. He hands coin 1 to Brendon and it is put it the little clip on the table. Lilau shoves coin 2 up his nose when he inflates the balloon. Brendon makes it look like he is shooting the coin at Lilaus head, but nothing is fired. He keeps the coin palmed in his hand. The glass is a self breaking glass gag that can be purchased anywhere. Its sole purpose is to convince you that something was fired out of the slingshot when there wasn’t. Lilau then motions for the hemostat which gives Brenden a reason to get in close. When they are side by side, Brenden simply hands the second coin to Lilau. Lilau palms the second coin. At this point coin 2 is in Lilaus nose, and coin 1 is in his left hand. He pulls coin 2 out with the hemostat and we can see the smiley face. He places it in his left hand which is already holding coin 1 with the initials. Now they are back in the two coin stack. He again is careful to cover the flip with his hand so we don’t see that there are two coins. She could have drawn anything on either side, but they directed her to draw two different things so we can see that there are two sides. In the end when Lilau is prompted for Brook to inspect the coin, you can see him struggle to make sure he gets the coins back in the stack before he pulls them out of his pocket, he again flips it over with his hand covering the coins. He does not hand the coin to brook as it would immediately give it away.
If you look closely, you'll notice when Brook has to look closely at the coins that he's holding 2 coins in his fingers, that's also the reason why he's holding them so tightly and Brook isn't really allowed to turn them. But the more obvious thing was that he has "only one" coin but when he puts it in his jacket pocket you hear it jingle
Actually kinda smart that it would be super easy to bust the trick if you asked for the coin But who would want to hold a coin that was in somebody's nose? No worries, I'll hold and turn 'the coin' for you
i mean the premise of the show is that they have to be able to figure it it out and make a guess. if they guess wrong then its a fool. they guessed that the coin produced at the end was not the coin signed at the start. which it was the original coin. kind like on jeopardy. you have 4 choices and you say which one is your final guess. they know all teh ways for the trick to be done, they just guessed the wrong way so they got it wrong
Wonderfully performed, and a really neat idea to play homage to Penn and Teller while also managing to come up with a twist that essentially misdirected them to the wrong solution *chefs kiss*
I have the benefit of pausing and flipping through frame by frame, just like the rest of us on TH-cam but holy crap guys, this was AMAZING. Well done!!
This is a simple yet extremely effective trick. You can see the moments where they do slight of hand but its the double coin that really sells the trick
@@baconcow try to get a clean pause when it's still sideways, you may need to go a little before where I timestamped but I definitely thought it looked pretty thick 🤷♀️
@@ladylamellae I had it paused. The line along the side made me think it was half coins, but you know, it might end up being just two coins together. I never considered that damaging money in some places is illegal.
You can smuggle one half the coin first while still showing the other half in the holster. Then smuggle the other half at the end. A bullet doesn't allow that since you can't keep the real one on display and smuggle it at the same time.
The audience seemed quiet, but I laughed at your jokes, really funny. I also appreciated when Brook put the smiley face off center, that helped show that it was the same coin (within reason)
Yes, this is the equivalent of a double lift. I saw the hand off, I saw the “flip” of the coin. He did a lot of messing with the coin in the slingshot too. When the guy said “wait!” He swapped it with what would break the glass. This is a good trick, but easy to figure out with a little bit of digging
During the performance, I was thinking the same thing Penn said. Using a slingshot and coin makes it better. Far more believable. Awesome routine guys, absolutely love it!
@@miztahrayeproductions2942 like Pen was saying, the markings didn’t have to match exactly, only appeared to be the same. We see it on HD video zoomed in. They are seeing it from far away, and also why he had Brooks stand back behind him. The shine of the coin I noticed also made it difficult to see the markings.
i didn't notice that, i thought he put the coin in his nose when other guy handed him the pliers to pull it out, it was dodgy. i also compared the coins and it seems same, not sure how they copied brooke's smiley face so accurately, it looks bit different, but only cuz its worn off. this part is much more interesting to me than how the coin got into his nose. i'd like to know how they copied signature and smiley face so well. i'm sure i'd be able to do it if i could examine the coin and had bit of time, but doing that loose handed and hiding it from audience .. hmmm also if someone asks me to draw a smiley face, i'd make one with x x as eyes :) just to be different and possibly mess with their trick.
@@OgKamoGaming "hd video zoomed in" ... take a screenshot and rotate it and compare, looks same, just bit more faded, which is normal as marker doesn't stick to coins that well, you can basically wipe it off with finger if you press hard enough. however i just came up with an idea how to copy things. 1) marker is wet, so it goes thru materials like cloth. if you press shirt against your skin and draw with marker, bit of it goes thru onto your skin if shirt is thin enough. 2) make special transparent sticky layer that lets half of the marker to go thru 3) peel it off after signed and stick it onto another coin. it could have magnetic edges so it clips around the coin perfectly. you can go more high tech and have a swipe-scanner somewhere on stage or in pocket, with a coin holder. you slip the coin in there, scan and then you have a small "printer" that replicates it. you can easily make one of those, however i think they're using much simpler method. i always over-think things and go with super high tech methods.
I think it's only loose for us because of the camera angle. Sitting in the audience you'd have his entire face obscured by the balloon so it would be fairly clean. I agree with you on the coin marking copy. My thought was that it's something to do with the fact he wouldn't let Brook hold it both when she drew on it and when she inspected it after. He also held it exactly the same way both times so perhaps it's doubled up and the markings transfer somehow.@@SethiozProject
No they where not fooled by this trick! Its one of their give away awards they have to hand so many out! If they where tricked its again proof im a better magician than both of them combined!
Amazing trick and amazing homage to Penn and Teller. You did amazingly and I am so happy that while the "trick" is simple, you didn't lie to them which was really what fooled them. Great job!
at 8:42 you can see there’s 2 coins in his hand i honestly feel like p&t just say they fooled them i haven’t seen a clip in awhile where they weren’t fooled
@@tylers92Penn guessed wrong tho, the rules of the show is that they get one guess. His guess was that they had a forgery with the same general marking but they weren't hers, but that's not how the trick was done, therefore he was wrong.
Was there a cap? Was there a switch when A handed coin to B or was there a pass when the tool was passed over. Im thinking #2 with a fake one in the nose and then a switch back
Great trick !! For those interested...not giving the trick away but here's a PART SPOILER.......... ...... ..... 2:23 & 3:50 , 5:35 & 8:42 key moments.
There are 2 coins. Around 5:35 Pell passes Brook's coin to Lau as he is giving Lau the tweezers. The performance of the trick would have had a greater effect if Peel & Laul brought Penn on stage to sign the coin. With the velocity of coin being shot out a sling shot it would take a surgeon to remove the coin out the back of the throat. I love magic tricks. These magicians have to spend years of practice at sleight of hand.
@@crispincain5373 100% percent does. There is no good reason to approach and stand next to someone like that just to pass them tweezers. They obviously did not actually shoot the coin into his mouth, and knowing this, they have to pass the coin, the only available time is when he passes the tweezers and damn near stands on top of him doing so.
@8My problem with that is that it's *unnecessary*. Since you can clearly see they have to show BB BOTH COINS at the end of the trick (god that was a terrible camera mistake at 8:42. There's no doubt we're looking at 2 coins) we know that neither coin has both correct markings on it. IMO, P&T were on the right path. But then why do a move that looks clearly like an exchange and cleanup? They had two coins they could pass off as real for most of the trick, and each had one for most of the trick. I HAD been thinking that was a feint to try to get P&T to guess wrong. The only "maybe" I have in mind is that they wanted to show the REAL smiley in the nose-pull, but the REAL signature a moment later. It just seems a lot for part of the trick too small for P&T to see.
Yeah, this was full circle. Clearly Pen was not about to say howe it works, bur we all now by now. I think the twist was never there. They tried, but failed. But of course Pen never would say the audition when exactly. Although, he did.
There was obviously a fake signature, the real coin was in his pocket, the coin she verified was the real one, but she didn't see it during most of the trick.
The actual magic trick was at the end, where Lau had to take two coins out of his pocket while making it look like one. The last close-up of the shot, you can see the second coin. Lau also only grabs the last "coin" on the sides, to keep them aligned and the back coin hidden.
Wow, that was freakin' *sneaky*! I know exactly how that was done, and there was no fake signature. Somebody has probably already explained it below, but I'm not scrolling to find out. I could give you an exact time stamp that would reveal the entire trick to you as well, but I won't unless someone specifically asks for it. The simplicity blew me away. Great job guys!
I def caught the balloon misdirect first go. And i feel like at 5:54, with headphones, you can here the 2 coins reconnecting with like a metallic clicking sound
She signs one side of one coin, he flips the 2 coins, and she signs the other side of the other coin at 2:22. At 2:30, he used slight of hand to slide one of the coins down with his thumb and his partner only takes one of the coins. You can see him slide the coin up his nose while blowing the balloon. Then later on he hands him back the other half when he's handing him the pliers. The coins must have been magnetized in order to keep them together the correct way so that when he pulled them out of his pocket the signed sides were on the outside.
Awesome idea!!! I would think about the practice shot part. Introducing other random coins becomes messy. I know you need that part to blow the balloon 😅 but from there the plot feels less robust somehow. Amazing job! Also though was this a genuine FOOLER? The ending feels way off.
2:24 Yes, exactly. I picked it instantly. The switch occurred when he blew on it and handed the other 'signed coin' to his assistant. Nobody really examined the signed coin after that until the previously secreted coin was re-displayed at the very end.
The magicians can't lie about how they perform the act, the show runners are actually magicians as well and they know beforehand how the trick is done (there have even been times where Penn and teller thought they weren't fooled but the director called in and told them they actually did get fooled) what happened here is that Penn and Teller used their guess, which was that they had a similar coin with the same markings already loaded on his nose, but they used the same coin that she signed making Penn's guess incorrect
You're a bit early. At 3:53 you can clearly see him shove a coin into his nose as he blows up the ballon to hide the action. At 5:35 when handing him the forecepts is when he drops the real coin into the others left hand with his right hand. You see the original signed coin at 6:01 as well but he had already switched it when he placed the other coin into his hand at 5:54. Also if you're wondering when the guy with the slingshot switched the coin it's at 4:49 removing it while the other guy set up the glass and at 4:56 placing a small BB to actually break the glass.
@@tecwzrd and at 3:57 the show actually adds a edited blur to help out because the coin load must have been too obvious. I appreciate that in person this trick was probably very hard to catch, but wow this was one of the most obvious tricks on camera that ever "fooled" P+T I've seen...
SPOILERS: 2:25 - Reveals there are two coins. 2:27 - He blows on the coins and hands off the signature side, sliding the smiley face side down into his palm, where it stays. 2:38 - Notice it's the Signature side facing out clamped, and the smiley face is never revealed. Potentially, the other side had their own smiley face drawn in case Brooke saw the back side for a moment. 3:50 - Inserting the palmed coin into his nose. 4:36 - Still only showing the signed side. 4:56 - Hands go together, transferring coin from slingshot to his right hand. Ballsy move tbh, because he's actively talking so the eyes would be on him. 5:16 - set your speed to 0.25x. You can see the glass breaking without any projectile going through. The glass break is triggered mechanically somehow. 5:34 - Peel's right hand is holding the coin, as he hands off the clamps with his left hand, he hands the coin to Lau with this right hand. 5:51 - Coin comes out of the nose smiley face first. The signature is not revealed. 5:54 - Sets the coin perfectly in his palm, smiley face side up, joining the coins back together. 6:03 - Interestingly, the signed side looks wet, while the smiley side looks dry. You'd think it would be the opposite based on our theory. I wonder if they had some method of sliming up the signed coin in case the smiley side was snotted up, but it wasn't as snotty as they anticipated. 8:32 - Wow, he went fishing in his pocket for a while. He had to figure out how to get the coins back together in the right orientation in his pocket. Great improvisation here to make it work. 8:41 - Clear view of two separate coins. One thing I wonder is if Penn and Teller got "fooled" because the trick is actually so similar to their own, which is one of the few tricks they protect, that giving a fake guess keeps their trick safe. Because I think P&T's bullet is very similar to the two coins (the projectile and casing come apart).
in 8:42 you can see that there are 2 coins! When Brooke signs the coin, it looks like he's just flipping it. In reality, he is swapping the coins. One coin is then with the slingshot. He shoves the other one up his nose while inflating the balon. When he hands over the tweezers, he also hands him the second coin. Of course, it wasn't planned that she would want to see the coin again, but it was a good improvisation.
no coin swap. he really flipped the coin. asian guy is holding 2 coins back to back. brook had her initials on 1 coin and the smiley on the other, then asian guy gave the white guy the other coin which brook wrote her initials on, and asian guy has the coin that has her smiley which he put in his nose,
5:31 you can see the guy in the red shirt pick up something from the table and hand it off to the guy in Black. Notice the left hand of the guy wearing black is empty at the beginning. When Penn asks Brook to inspect the coin, he does not allow her to hold the coin. The coin also appears to be very thick. So possibly the coin had a cap and brook signed the cap
I first thought you might be wrong because there was no time to get the coin towards his nose, but on second view there is a camera cut which makes stuff possible.
There are actually 2 coins: one with real initials on one side and one with a smily face on the other. When signing and watching at the end they are stuck together. But when the one with initials is in the holder, the other one is being put into the nose while pumping the baloon at 3:54. Then at 5:35 the one with the initials is put into his left hand.
The fact that he won't let go of the coin when Brooke inspects it kinds of give away the real trick. It has to be gimmicked, and probably is in fact two coins stuck together.
Things i noticed when watching normally (no pausing, no frame-by-frame, no screenshotting..etc). 1) coin never flew thru glass, it broke on its own. 2) i thought he gave the coin to him at same time when he handed him the pliers 3) signature and smiley looked bit different, but i thought it was because of marker wears off of metal quite easily when touched. Things i didn't notice at first: 1) he put coin into his nose when blowing up the balloon 2) this means there had to be 2 coins 3) didn't notice how they replicated the signature and smiley face, but i would have probably used some clear sticky layer that lets some of the marker to go thru, while some sticks to the layer, then you can peel it off and stick it onto another coin, so both coins will have signature, but just faded out and 2nd coin was definetely faded out bit more, but i thought it was only cuz they touched it and he put it into his nose aswell.
So you can see at 3:45 when he is blowing up the balloon that is when he puts the coin up his nose. That bit is easy to see. What isn't easy to see is when the coin switch happened, because clearly the coin that's put into the holder is not the one that Brooke signed. My best guess is that at 2:17, he takes the pen and puts it in his pocket, while grabbing the 2nd coin at the same time. Then he makes the switch when he's showing the reverse side at 2:22 (he flips it over rather suspiciously by covering it with his hand) and hands the decoy coin over while palming the real one (or rather, putting it between his fingers). That's the only point I could see where the switch could have happened.
It's two coins signed each on one side! At 2:27 when he's handed the coin/s you can hear them being slid across each other for a brief moment. And you can't replicate that sound without two coins!
He kind of gave it away between 8:42 and 8:45 the trick is done a similar way to pen and teller’s. The two coins confirms that, at the end after both coins being in his pocket he would have no way to determine which is which without looking at them so he took both out and took a chance on just fooling brook which in turn won them the trophy pretty quick thinking.
At 6:00, why does he need his other hand to "flip" the coin? He could've turned it over with his fingers. So he actually covers the coin with his hand whilst he swaps it for the other one.
I mean of all the "fooled" tricks I've seen on the show that was the easiest to catch (and in multiple places too), in part because the camera, or the magicians seemed to not understand the proper angles needed in advance. I'm sure in person it was more impressive.
8:42 and I thought this from the beginning. You can clearly see that its 2 coins. So when they said sign both front and back, she was signing two different coins....
At 3:53 you can clearly see him shove a coin into his nose as he blows up the ballon to hide the action. At 5:35 when handing him the forecepts is when he drops the real coin into the others left hand with his right hand. You see the original signed coin at 6:01 as well but he had already switched it when he placed the other coin into his hand at 5:54. Also if you're wondering when the guy with the slingshot switched the coin it's at 4:49 removing it while the other guy set up the glass and at 4:56 placing a small BB to actually break the glass.
The game is to fool Penn and Teller during a live performance on stage while P&T are sitting some number of feet away, not fool people on the internet who have access to replayable 0.25x speed videos at camera angles that P&T can't see. They won the game and I bet they're pretty happy with it!
the coin in his nose is legit. brook signed it, brook just didnt see that she signed 2 coins. back to back. 1 has her initials and the other one has the smiley
I mean, asking to see the coin well after the fact from his pocket is a little absurd. Of course at that point, the coin he's holding is her actual coin...Great trick though!
Not really. The show has an independent judge, who knows how the trick works. If the signed coin was not the one up the nose, he would have called them out.
The judge always allows P&T to hand out the F/U even when they conceded to the fool, Notice that P&T never even made a false guess. The Judges had to agree to their decision.
This is actually where the trick became obvious. Pay attention to the "coin(s)". Kind of assumed this was how they were doing it and proved right. But still ballsy to use their own trick against them. No way they could see what we see now looking at a close up view.
Absurd or not, the guy really did have the correctly marked coin in his nose. You can watch him shove it up there as he uses the balloon for misdirection... they used slight of hand to swap the coin immediately after it was marked and the original never made it to the table. I don't believe for a second that this actually fooled P&T. It's just too easy.
@lley But how the BB marks are exact same when he put the coin in to the holster (I've compared them thoroughly)? I guess the coin had some casing (might be made from foil) on the side where she put her marks and inner side of the case had some black coating which transfers the black ink to the actual coin copying the marks, the other side didn't have that casing since after he handled the coin(actually casing) the second guy never showed the other side
Enjoyable trick performed very good and it was fun to watch. But I'm wondering why this was a "you fooled us". Switch was hat 5:35 and the coin from the nose was just marked with some general "face".
If the coin was switched at 2:23 ... they had a second coin with her initials and only showed that side in the coin holder. Getting the coin up the nose well the camera is off him at points so could have been any time. When he blew up the balloon he put the coin up his nose. There ya go
the fact that you are one asian and one caucasian and both from south africa is epic meme :)) , and to top it of with jokes like that "crime" you deserve a medal! GG never change!
The fact that you think that's the whole trick actually just shows you were also fooled. Cuz that's not how the whole trick was done. They get one chance to guess correct and they didn't guess it correctly either
At 2:21 when he's showing the signed coin(s) you can slightly see that it's actually 2 coins sandwiched together. You can see it again at 8:42 when they verify the "coin". I liked the trick but it kinda was less of a "wow magic" moment and more of a "I wonder how they did it?" moment.
This trick is actually really clever and contrary to what people in the comments say there is no fake signature involved. Well done!
SPOILER BELOW
The coin that is signed consists of two halves that can be separated. When signing, Brooke therefore signs one side of one half and one side of the other. Lau first shows both sides of the coin and then hands over one half to Peel. Peel only ever shows one side of the coin (with the signature) and orders Brooke to step away for her to not see the back of the coin. At 3:52 Lau inserts his half of the coin with the smiley into his nose. At 5:33 Peel hands over the second half of the coin to Lau with his right hand into Laus left hand. After getting his half with the smiley out of the nose, Lau puts the half into his left hand, where the second half is already waiting. After that he has the full coin with both signatures.
I think you have this perfectly down. I also think Penn and Tell had to have known how it was done.
5:33 was the missing link... Thanks for your explanation... :)
I love it how one of the guys was like "I can't believe we fooled them" and the other one was like he won a bet he made! 😂
If u look very carefully, when they ask Brooke to verify her markings, 8.42-8:43 it seems like the coin is not fully back together, seems to be some sort of gap along the edge of the coin
@Mack182 yeah I noticed that my first watch. It looked like 2 separate coins and he didn't want her to hold it or touch it really.
3:52 is when he inserts the coin in his nose
Nice catch, if you slow the speed down you can see it fairly clearly.
So Lau must've palmed the signed coin around 2:18?
when he flips the coin around in his hand he adds a fake signed coined behind it. Then when he shakes his hand he palms the real coin and passes the fake
@@just-squirrels
@@just-squirrels yep and then Peel palms the other coin around the time Lau brings the glass plate across, and then hands it back to Lau at the same time as giving him the tweezers. Lau has good slight of hand to show two different coins and make it look like two sides of the same coin.

But it's a well constructed trick and they did well to send P&T down the wrong path with solving it.
@ch5851 Hi, just so you know it's sleight of hand, Not slight of.
Many people do get it wrong & if just people enjoying the trick it doesn't matter; but if person comment like they know something about magic, or how the trick is done, then details it (exposes it) they should know & use the correct words/ terminology.
Besides the magic side it is bad English to say "slight of..."
sleight: use of dexterity, or cunning - as to deceive.
So could say some things are sleight of mind, both in magic (post hypnotic suggestion for one example), or perhaps re being excessively overly influenced in everyday life by someone else. But slight of mind means something completely different.
As "sleight" tends not to be used outside of magic anymore, suggesting an usage that would only work with sleight (not slight) isn't easy, but hopefully previous paragraph helps to detail why it's not "slight of hand". Although if the magician has small hands it could be :) :P
Yeh, I know long comment, but hate people who correct someone in this way:
*sleight of hand. (or, for anything that's incorrect).
Without explaining why, as some people may just not know, & of course youtube (& other media) is world wide & many people may have English as a second language, so in both cases even being told something is wrong word doesn't help to learn why it is.
(Of course in some instances though it's not even worth bothering; see comment by someone saying P&T weren't fooled, it was one of their give away awards.
Clearly a person who doesn't know Fool Us works, since they don't need to be fooled by the Trick, but either just by one thing in it or not get correct guess/method in reasonable amount time - we see only about half of the fill-in between end of trick, & when the host hands over to P&T. Plus there's off stage executive adjudicator/producer & a magician who (& only person that is) been told prior how it work, & P&T have been overruled a few times, 3-4 times with the magician getting a trophy when P&T said they weren't fooled, but they got the analysis wrong, and twice when P&T did go to give the trophy but hadn't realised they'd said something that was correct when thought it wasn't.
4:54 *LOL, you can hear it took a second for the 2nd half of the audience to get that joke.*
I want to like your comment but it's currently at 69 which is too perfect for me to ruin
@@psymar *lol, it's at 70 now...*
How hard is it to fool them with one of their own tricks? Fantastic!!!
Well, if the magician(s)can figure out an alternate way to do the trick other than the way P&T does it then you can probably easily pull it off, which seems exactly what they did here. The best tricks for fooling P&T are the ones that have multiple ways to pull off as you get a at least a 50/50 chance they guess wrong as to how it’s done even if they know more then one way it can be done.
It's much much harder to fool the TH-cam couch magicians, that was well done and funny
@@Charlesb88 It didnt trick them!
@@danquaylesitsspeltpotatoe8307 @danquaylesitsspeltpotatoe8307 But by the rules of Fool Us it "Fool them" as they didn't know his method for doing the trick. Whether fooling them (by the shows definition) also counts as tricking them (by your definition) isn't important to me.
At 8:42 you can see the split coin. My admiration for magicians ability and creativity in producing these tricks - respect!
Great to see fellow South Africans on this show! I now live in Cape Town but was born in Port Elizabeth. Well done!
Not so sure if that coin came GENUINELY out of his nose. If you could say that once more, maybe I would be sure.
He put the coin up his nostril while holding the balloon.
@@fivish could be a switch of coins there, but its really hard to see
It's two coins, that's why he holds them so tightly when getting signed and showing Brook at the end!
I cant believe that you can clearly see him put the coin up his nose at 3: 50- 3:55 while blowing up the balloon and Penn and Teller didnt see it
There is one problem - f there wasnt a coin switch and f that was really Brookes signed coin how dd it he hev it before twas fired
@@takazchichaz597 Watch at 5.35 - when he puts the coin into the pocket
@@takazchichaz597 tell me you dont see him shove the coin up his nose
@@QualityAffordableGuitars of course i saw him puttin something when he was blowing the ballon .. and i think Penn and Teller saw that too … the only problem is the coin was then placed on the table and we saw it during the whole time… so either they figured a way to hev an identical coin( dublicate).. thats y at the end they put it in Brooks Hands to confirm f ts the same coin
Didn't he just switch the coin at 2:22 ?
Boy, that was absolutely fantastic!
The balls that you guys have to do a trick so similar to Penn and teller's big trick is amazing!
This act had it all. Humor, excitement, a little bit of disgusting added in there. Great job guys ✊🏼
Thank you so much 🙏 we genuinely do appreciate that 🙏😁
@@BrendonPeelmentalistI loved your take on the bullet catch trick, both parts really showed themselves as different than P&T's version, and Penn's comment about you genuinely shooting at the face shows a huge difference with their trick that was quite impressive. The marker's mostly worn off, but I still have the case and bullet from being the audience member for their trick. It's amazing what you can do when you set your sights on the right thing :).
I am really surprised Penn and Teller did not notice it. But then again, the camera angle might have been better than what they saw from their chairs.
It might blow up in their faces if they see our perspective.
I thought the load was pretty obvious.
me too@@timq6224
Is it just me, or did the show even add some blur to try and mask the load?
@@bradsnet at 3:57 the show adds an edited blur because the coin must have been too obvious, that's pretty out there considering if you freeze it a second or so earlier the coin is totally visible anyway. I'm sure the audience and Brooke on stage couldn't see anything based on how he was standing but either the cameras or the magicians screwed up the angles to prevent it getting caught on tape.
Two coins stacked on top. When she signs the coins, she signs one side of each coin. Front of coin 1 with the initials, and back of coin 2 with the smiley face. Lilau is careful to flip the coin stack with his hand covering so they can’t be seen together from the side. He hands coin 1 to Brendon and it is put it the little clip on the table. Lilau shoves coin 2 up his nose when he inflates the balloon. Brendon makes it look like he is shooting the coin at Lilaus head, but nothing is fired. He keeps the coin palmed in his hand. The glass is a self breaking glass gag that can be purchased anywhere. Its sole purpose is to convince you that something was fired out of the slingshot when there wasn’t. Lilau then motions for the hemostat which gives Brenden a reason to get in close. When they are side by side, Brenden simply hands the second coin to Lilau. Lilau palms the second coin. At this point coin 2 is in Lilaus nose, and coin 1 is in his left hand. He pulls coin 2 out with the hemostat and we can see the smiley face. He places it in his left hand which is already holding coin 1 with the initials. Now they are back in the two coin stack. He again is careful to cover the flip with his hand so we don’t see that there are two coins. She could have drawn anything on either side, but they directed her to draw two different things so we can see that there are two sides. In the end when Lilau is prompted for Brook to inspect the coin, you can see him struggle to make sure he gets the coins back in the stack before he pulls them out of his pocket, he again flips it over with his hand covering the coins. He does not hand the coin to brook as it would immediately give it away.
If you look closely, you'll notice when Brook has to look closely at the coins that he's holding 2 coins in his fingers, that's also the reason why he's holding them so tightly and Brook isn't really allowed to turn them. But the more obvious thing was that he has "only one" coin but when he puts it in his jacket pocket you hear it jingle
If he's holding 2 coins, it's a bit unfair, they should have accepted the loss/catch
@@HousrastenOfficial 8:42 you can see it pretty clearly
WRONG. I went to walmart and couldn't find self breaking glass there.
Actually kinda smart that it would be super easy to bust the trick if you asked for the coin
But who would want to hold a coin that was in somebody's nose? No worries, I'll hold and turn 'the coin' for you
Excellent guys, such performers. Thank you for debuting it for us in this setting, excited for what's next!
thank you so much.. We look forward to the journey ahead :D
The title is wrong.
Pen and Teller didn't get fooled, they were just tired and wanted to go home 😂
i mean the premise of the show is that they have to be able to figure it it out and make a guess. if they guess wrong then its a fool. they guessed that the coin produced at the end was not the coin signed at the start. which it was the original coin.
kind like on jeopardy. you have 4 choices and you say which one is your final guess. they know all teh ways for the trick to be done, they just guessed the wrong way so they got it wrong
@jamescain9464 since when on Jeopardy do you get choices for the answer?
Wonderfully performed, and a really neat idea to play homage to Penn and Teller while also managing to come up with a twist that essentially misdirected them to the wrong solution *chefs kiss*
I have the benefit of pausing and flipping through frame by frame, just like the rest of us on TH-cam but holy crap guys, this was AMAZING. Well done!!
8:42 and a half you can see he's holding 2 coins LOL
This is a simple yet extremely effective trick. You can see the moments where they do slight of hand but its the double coin that really sells the trick
He was holding two coins when he showed it to Brooke lmao you can see two layers 8:42 , what a save.
and at 3:54, whilst blowing up the balloon, you can see him shoving one of the coins up his nose.
I think it is a single coin that has been cut into two pieces. Otherwise, it would be a lot thicker.
@@baconcow try to get a clean pause when it's still sideways, you may need to go a little before where I timestamped but I definitely thought it looked pretty thick 🤷♀️
@@ladylamellae I had it paused. The line along the side made me think it was half coins, but you know, it might end up being just two coins together. I never considered that damaging money in some places is illegal.
@@baconcowdamaging money is not a factor lmao that’s only for real legal coins, they obviously use a fake coin
8:42 is the key to the trick, there are two coins stacked on top of each other
not that easy the marks on the coin in the holster are exact same as the ones on the coin he took out of his nose
I don't think so. What would be the point of that?
You can smuggle one half the coin first while still showing the other half in the holster. Then smuggle the other half at the end. A bullet doesn't allow that since you can't keep the real one on display and smuggle it at the same time.
The audience seemed quiet, but I laughed at your jokes, really funny.
I also appreciated when Brook put the smiley face off center, that helped show that it was the same coin (within reason)
I think it's just tense when the trick involves an element of danger. I also liked the jokes
Yes, this is the equivalent of a double lift. I saw the hand off, I saw the “flip” of the coin. He did a lot of messing with the coin in the slingshot too. When the guy said “wait!” He swapped it with what would break the glass. This is a good trick, but easy to figure out with a little bit of digging
During the performance, I was thinking the same thing Penn said. Using a slingshot and coin makes it better. Far more believable. Awesome routine guys, absolutely love it!
That was WONDERFUL! You guys are awesome. Congratulations on your much-deserved success.
Such a great performance! Wishing you the best of success!
He stuck the coin up his nose when he blew up the ballon. Brilliant distraction and indeed was a second coin. Well played.
I saw that, too. But the real question is... how did he create identical markings or markings that look nearly identical?
@@miztahrayeproductions2942 like Pen was saying, the markings didn’t have to match exactly, only appeared to be the same.
We see it on HD video zoomed in. They are seeing it from far away, and also why he had Brooks stand back behind him. The shine of the coin I noticed also made it difficult to see the markings.
i didn't notice that, i thought he put the coin in his nose when other guy handed him the pliers to pull it out, it was dodgy.
i also compared the coins and it seems same, not sure how they copied brooke's smiley face so accurately, it looks bit different, but only cuz its worn off. this part is much more interesting to me than how the coin got into his nose. i'd like to know how they copied signature and smiley face so well.
i'm sure i'd be able to do it if i could examine the coin and had bit of time, but doing that loose handed and hiding it from audience .. hmmm
also if someone asks me to draw a smiley face, i'd make one with x x as eyes :) just to be different and possibly mess with their trick.
@@OgKamoGaming "hd video zoomed in" ... take a screenshot and rotate it and compare, looks same, just bit more faded, which is normal as marker doesn't stick to coins that well, you can basically wipe it off with finger if you press hard enough.
however i just came up with an idea how to copy things. 1) marker is wet, so it goes thru materials like cloth. if you press shirt against your skin and draw with marker, bit of it goes thru onto your skin if shirt is thin enough. 2) make special transparent sticky layer that lets half of the marker to go thru 3) peel it off after signed and stick it onto another coin.
it could have magnetic edges so it clips around the coin perfectly.
you can go more high tech and have a swipe-scanner somewhere on stage or in pocket, with a coin holder. you slip the coin in there, scan and then you have a small "printer" that replicates it. you can easily make one of those, however i think they're using much simpler method. i always over-think things and go with super high tech methods.
I think it's only loose for us because of the camera angle. Sitting in the audience you'd have his entire face obscured by the balloon so it would be fairly clean. I agree with you on the coin marking copy. My thought was that it's something to do with the fact he wouldn't let Brook hold it both when she drew on it and when she inspected it after. He also held it exactly the same way both times so perhaps it's doubled up and the markings transfer somehow.@@SethiozProject
Love it, bravo!
Hello. Fellow South African here. Well done!
Mooi so, baie geluk!
PS. I saw something fishy happening at one point...
Lekker man! So proud of you! Much love from Cape Town❤❤❤
Jonathan Ross will never be replaced. ♥️😆
IMO the bullet catch is way more impressive because Penn and Teller never interact. Passing the tongs is a big cheat.
I foudn that to be the most suspcious part as well but you can clearly see the close up of it the whole time so its not that
The tongs weren't how the pass was done
How dare they made fun of safety matters. More please!
No they where not fooled by this trick! Its one of their give away awards they have to hand so many out! If they where tricked its again proof im a better magician than both of them combined!
Congratulations! Awesome and entertaining routine!
Thank you so much.. We worked really hard on this routine
Showing this trick to P&T is a ballsy move, well done
Amazing trick and amazing homage to Penn and Teller. You did amazingly and I am so happy that while the "trick" is simple, you didn't lie to them which was really what fooled them. Great job!
The very fact they mentioned 'coin unique' at the start gives it away but really well performed 10/10
Fantastic!
Thank you so much for the support.. Glad you enjoyed it 😊
8:42 and that is totally NOT a double coin. paired with the fact that the dude is firmly holding it.
Nice job guys!! Congrats on the trophy! 👍👍👍
That was freaking awesome
Wow. That was sooooooooo easy to spot.
Bad Camera pruduction
at 8:42 you can see there’s 2 coins in his hand i honestly feel like p&t just say they fooled them i haven’t seen a clip in awhile where they weren’t fooled
@@tylers92Penn guessed wrong tho, the rules of the show is that they get one guess. His guess was that they had a forgery with the same general marking but they weren't hers, but that's not how the trick was done, therefore he was wrong.
Was there a cap? Was there a switch when A handed coin to B or was there a pass when the tool was passed over. Im thinking #2 with a fake one in the nose and then a switch back
@@henriquerodrigues7795 That rule is sometimes responsible for some pretty ridiculous outcomes, as here.
Congrats guys!
Great trick !!
For those interested...not giving the trick away but here's a PART SPOILER..........
......
.....
2:23 & 3:50 , 5:35 & 8:42 key moments.
Dangerous but a wonderful performance 👍😊👍😊
Thank you my friend
It is not dangerous...
Thanks for doing that for South africa im also a magician from Mzansi❤
Proudly South African
There are 2 coins. Around 5:35 Pell passes Brook's coin to Lau as he is giving Lau the tweezers. The performance of the trick would have had a greater effect if Peel & Laul brought Penn on stage to sign the coin. With the velocity of coin being shot out a sling shot it would take a surgeon to remove the coin out the back of the throat. I love magic tricks. These magicians have to spend years of practice at sleight of hand.
indeed, he pockets the coin as he stands hard up against him.
Passes the coin at 5:35? In your wildest dreams...
@@crispincain5373 look carefully at Li Lau's left hand...
@@crispincain5373 100% percent does. There is no good reason to approach and stand next to someone like that just to pass them tweezers.
They obviously did not actually shoot the coin into his mouth, and knowing this, they have to pass the coin, the only available time is when he passes the tweezers and damn near stands on top of him doing so.
@8My problem with that is that it's *unnecessary*. Since you can clearly see they have to show BB BOTH COINS at the end of the trick (god that was a terrible camera mistake at 8:42. There's no doubt we're looking at 2 coins) we know that neither coin has both correct markings on it. IMO, P&T were on the right path.
But then why do a move that looks clearly like an exchange and cleanup? They had two coins they could pass off as real for most of the trick, and each had one for most of the trick. I HAD been thinking that was a feint to try to get P&T to guess wrong.
The only "maybe" I have in mind is that they wanted to show the REAL smiley in the nose-pull, but the REAL signature a moment later. It just seems a lot for part of the trick too small for P&T to see.
I am glad they went back with a trophy ❤
It was so surreal!
The performance of this routine was super entertaining.
Yeah, this was full circle.
Clearly Pen was not about to say howe it works, bur we all now by now.
I think the twist was never there. They tried, but failed. But of course Pen never would say the audition when exactly.
Although, he did.
WOW mazing to see our Own on this show
Mooi gedoen julle!!!
Dankie Baie
Really great job guys
There was obviously a fake signature, the real coin was in his pocket, the coin she verified was the real one, but she didn't see it during most of the trick.
Lekker om Saffas op Fool Us te sien! Well done om hulle te kon fool met hulle eie trick!
Baie dankie.. Ons probeer
You can see the edges of 2 coins stuck together as he held it for Brook's "final" inspection
camera did him dirty at 3:55
Yeah, something fishy is going on there for sure...
The actual magic trick was at the end, where Lau had to take two coins out of his pocket while making it look like one. The last close-up of the shot, you can see the second coin. Lau also only grabs the last "coin" on the sides, to keep them aligned and the back coin hidden.
U can see as he was blowing up the balloon he stuck the coin in his nostril
Wow, that was freakin' *sneaky*! I know exactly how that was done, and there was no fake signature. Somebody has probably already explained it below, but I'm not scrolling to find out. I could give you an exact time stamp that would reveal the entire trick to you as well, but I won't unless someone specifically asks for it. The simplicity blew me away. Great job guys!
I def caught the balloon misdirect first go. And i feel like at 5:54, with headphones, you can here the 2 coins reconnecting with like a metallic clicking sound
Well done guys. I can't believe I now know two people that fooled Penn & Teller
Thanks bro 🙏🙌
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦 so so proud! CONGRATULATIONS!!!
Thank you so much ❤
I was ready to say that's snot the right coin . . .
Dude had a coin in his nose that whole time? Damn that’s commitment
She signs one side of one coin, he flips the 2 coins, and she signs the other side of the other coin at 2:22. At 2:30, he used slight of hand to slide one of the coins down with his thumb and his partner only takes one of the coins. You can see him slide the coin up his nose while blowing the balloon. Then later on he hands him back the other half when he's handing him the pliers.
The coins must have been magnetized in order to keep them together the correct way so that when he pulled them out of his pocket the signed sides were on the outside.
at 8:42 you can clearly see 2 coins stacked!
And you just had to tell everyone how the trick was done to show how clever you are, huh?
Genuinely
Awesome idea!!! I would think about the practice shot part. Introducing other random coins becomes messy. I know you need that part to blow the balloon 😅 but from there the plot feels less robust somehow. Amazing job! Also though was this a genuine FOOLER? The ending feels way off.
You can see the two coins when they do the closeup on it in their hands. How carefully they flip "the" coin over is the tell.
The balls on you guys!!!! It ain't over till the skinny lady sings. Congratulations. Very nicely done.
Thank you so much, we genuinely do appreciate that
The ending ruined the illusion, he could pull any coin from his own pocket and use a different one in the trick.
2:24 Yes, exactly. I picked it instantly. The switch occurred when he blew on it and handed the other 'signed coin' to his assistant. Nobody really examined the signed coin after that until the previously secreted coin was re-displayed at the very end.
The magicians can't lie about how they perform the act, the show runners are actually magicians as well and they know beforehand how the trick is done (there have even been times where Penn and teller thought they weren't fooled but the director called in and told them they actually did get fooled) what happened here is that Penn and Teller used their guess, which was that they had a similar coin with the same markings already loaded on his nose, but they used the same coin that she signed making Penn's guess incorrect
2:21 this is where things happen.
You're a bit early. At 3:53 you can clearly see him shove a coin into his nose as he blows up the ballon to hide the action. At 5:35 when handing him the forecepts is when he drops the real coin into the others left hand with his right hand. You see the original signed coin at 6:01 as well but he had already switched it when he placed the other coin into his hand at 5:54. Also if you're wondering when the guy with the slingshot switched the coin it's at 4:49 removing it while the other guy set up the glass and at 4:56 placing a small BB to actually break the glass.
@@tecwzrd and at 3:57 the show actually adds a edited blur to help out because the coin load must have been too obvious. I appreciate that in person this trick was probably very hard to catch, but wow this was one of the most obvious tricks on camera that ever "fooled" P+T I've seen...
SPOILERS:
2:25 - Reveals there are two coins.
2:27 - He blows on the coins and hands off the signature side, sliding the smiley face side down into his palm, where it stays.
2:38 - Notice it's the Signature side facing out clamped, and the smiley face is never revealed. Potentially, the other side had their own smiley face drawn in case Brooke saw the back side for a moment.
3:50 - Inserting the palmed coin into his nose.
4:36 - Still only showing the signed side.
4:56 - Hands go together, transferring coin from slingshot to his right hand. Ballsy move tbh, because he's actively talking so the eyes would be on him.
5:16 - set your speed to 0.25x. You can see the glass breaking without any projectile going through. The glass break is triggered mechanically somehow.
5:34 - Peel's right hand is holding the coin, as he hands off the clamps with his left hand, he hands the coin to Lau with this right hand.
5:51 - Coin comes out of the nose smiley face first. The signature is not revealed.
5:54 - Sets the coin perfectly in his palm, smiley face side up, joining the coins back together.
6:03 - Interestingly, the signed side looks wet, while the smiley side looks dry. You'd think it would be the opposite based on our theory. I wonder if they had some method of sliming up the signed coin in case the smiley side was snotted up, but it wasn't as snotty as they anticipated.
8:32 - Wow, he went fishing in his pocket for a while. He had to figure out how to get the coins back together in the right orientation in his pocket. Great improvisation here to make it work.
8:41 - Clear view of two separate coins.
One thing I wonder is if Penn and Teller got "fooled" because the trick is actually so similar to their own, which is one of the few tricks they protect, that giving a fake guess keeps their trick safe. Because I think P&T's bullet is very similar to the two coins (the projectile and casing come apart).
✨️Awesome✨️
5:33, there's the real coin in the pocket.
Not in the pocket, he simply placed the real coin into the others left hand while handing him the forecepts.
@tecwzrd Eh same place/area. Close enough
in 8:42 you can see that there are 2 coins!
When Brooke signs the coin, it looks like he's just flipping it. In reality, he is swapping the coins. One coin is then with the slingshot. He shoves the other one up his nose while inflating the balon. When he hands over the tweezers, he also hands him the second coin.
Of course, it wasn't planned that she would want to see the coin again, but it was a good improvisation.
no coin swap. he really flipped the coin. asian guy is holding 2 coins back to back. brook had her initials on 1 coin and the smiley on the other, then asian guy gave the white guy the other coin which brook wrote her initials on, and asian guy has the coin that has her smiley which he put in his nose,
the power of frame by frame viewing. stop at 3:55 -- you see him put the coin up his nose there.
5:31 you can see the guy in the red shirt pick up something from the table and hand it off to the guy in Black. Notice the left hand of the guy wearing black is empty at the beginning. When Penn asks Brook to inspect the coin, he does not allow her to hold the coin. The coin also appears to be very thick. So possibly the coin had a cap and brook signed the cap
I first thought you might be wrong because there was no time to get the coin towards his nose, but on second view there is a camera cut which makes stuff possible.
no
@@countbleck35 Seems to be a decoy move.
@@Desam1000 The coin is loaded into the nose when he blows up the balloon.
@@santoshpalaniswamy6747 Yes you can see it when you slow down the video.
There are actually 2 coins: one with real initials on one side and one with a smily face on the other. When signing and watching at the end they are stuck together. But when the one with initials is in the holder, the other one is being put into the nose while pumping the baloon at 3:54. Then at 5:35 the one with the initials is put into his left hand.
Absolutely love the humour in this one :)
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
thank you good doctor!
The fact that he won't let go of the coin when Brooke inspects it kinds of give away the real trick. It has to be gimmicked, and probably is in fact two coins stuck together.
I really like this trick. By putting 2 possible things together they make something seemingly impossible happen.
Congrats🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Went in his nose when he blew up the balloon 🎈
Things i noticed when watching normally (no pausing, no frame-by-frame, no screenshotting..etc).
1) coin never flew thru glass, it broke on its own.
2) i thought he gave the coin to him at same time when he handed him the pliers
3) signature and smiley looked bit different, but i thought it was because of marker wears off of metal quite easily when touched.
Things i didn't notice at first:
1) he put coin into his nose when blowing up the balloon
2) this means there had to be 2 coins
3) didn't notice how they replicated the signature and smiley face, but i would have probably used some clear sticky layer that lets some of the marker to go thru, while some sticks to the layer, then you can peel it off and stick it onto another coin, so both coins will have signature, but just faded out and 2nd coin was definetely faded out bit more, but i thought it was only cuz they touched it and he put it into his nose aswell.
They didn't replicate anything. Brooke initialed one coin and put a smiley on another :)
I assume it was a trick coin that can be split in half. So both halfs had one real signature.
@ yup, lau finger palms the one with the genuine smiley face while flipping over the coin for the cameras
So you can see at 3:45 when he is blowing up the balloon that is when he puts the coin up his nose. That bit is easy to see. What isn't easy to see is when the coin switch happened, because clearly the coin that's put into the holder is not the one that Brooke signed. My best guess is that at 2:17, he takes the pen and puts it in his pocket, while grabbing the 2nd coin at the same time. Then he makes the switch when he's showing the reverse side at 2:22 (he flips it over rather suspiciously by covering it with his hand) and hands the decoy coin over while palming the real one (or rather, putting it between his fingers). That's the only point I could see where the switch could have happened.
It's two coins signed each on one side! At 2:27 when he's handed the coin/s you can hear them being slid across each other for a brief moment. And you can't replicate that sound without two coins!
He kind of gave it away between 8:42 and 8:45 the trick is done a similar way to pen and teller’s. The two coins confirms that, at the end after both coins being in his pocket he would have no way to determine which is which without looking at them so he took both out and took a chance on just fooling brook which in turn won them the trophy pretty quick thinking.
At 6:00, why does he need his other hand to "flip" the coin? He could've turned it over with his fingers. So he actually covers the coin with his hand whilst he swaps it for the other one.
Penn & Teller were spellbound. 😉
I mean of all the "fooled" tricks I've seen on the show that was the easiest to catch (and in multiple places too), in part because the camera, or the magicians seemed to not understand the proper angles needed in advance. I'm sure in person it was more impressive.
At the end when he shows her the coin at @8:42 you can see he's holding the two coins together
8:42 and I thought this from the beginning. You can clearly see that its 2 coins. So when they said sign both front and back, she was signing two different coins....
2:21 coin was switched there.
You showed her the coin she signed. Not the one that came out of the nose. Good performance but I doubt this will last remarkably as a fooler.
At 3:53 you can clearly see him shove a coin into his nose as he blows up the ballon to hide the action. At 5:35 when handing him the forecepts is when he drops the real coin into the others left hand with his right hand. You see the original signed coin at 6:01 as well but he had already switched it when he placed the other coin into his hand at 5:54. Also if you're wondering when the guy with the slingshot switched the coin it's at 4:49 removing it while the other guy set up the glass and at 4:56 placing a small BB to actually break the glass.
The game is to fool Penn and Teller during a live performance on stage while P&T are sitting some number of feet away, not fool people on the internet who have access to replayable 0.25x speed videos at camera angles that P&T can't see. They won the game and I bet they're pretty happy with it!
@@tecwzrdthank you. I figured they switched it out somewhere along the line obviously but it was great how you broke it down.
the coin in his nose is legit. brook signed it, brook just didnt see that she signed 2 coins. back to back. 1 has her initials and the other one has the smiley
The decision of if they fooled them happens before the interview is over. The rest is just an entertaining way of saying if they did or not
I mean, asking to see the coin well after the fact from his pocket is a little absurd. Of course at that point, the coin he's holding is her actual coin...Great trick though!
Not really. The show has an independent judge, who knows how the trick works. If the signed coin was not the one up the nose, he would have called them out.
The judge always allows P&T to hand out
the F/U even when they conceded to the fool,
Notice that P&T never even made a false
guess. The Judges had to agree to their decision.
This is actually where the trick became obvious. Pay attention to the "coin(s)". Kind of assumed this was how they were doing it and proved right. But still ballsy to use their own trick against them. No way they could see what we see now looking at a close up view.
Absurd or not, the guy really did have the correctly marked coin in his nose. You can watch him shove it up there as he uses the balloon for misdirection... they used slight of hand to swap the coin immediately after it was marked and the original never made it to the table. I don't believe for a second that this actually fooled P&T. It's just too easy.
@lley But how the BB marks are exact same when he put the coin in to the holster (I've compared them thoroughly)? I guess the coin had some casing (might be made from foil) on the side where she put her marks and inner side of the case had some black coating which transfers the black ink to the actual coin copying the marks, the other side didn't have that casing since after he handled the coin(actually casing) the second guy never showed the other side
Enjoyable trick performed very good and it was fun to watch. But I'm wondering why this was a "you fooled us". Switch was hat 5:35 and the coin from the nose was just marked with some general "face".
If the coin was switched at 2:23 ... they had a second coin with her initials and only showed that side in the coin holder.
Getting the coin up the nose well the camera is off him at points so could have been any time.
When he blew up the balloon he put the coin up his nose.
There ya go
Uploaded in HD you can see its two coins in his hand at the beginning. She signs the side of two coins. He makes it seem like its one.
the fact that you are one asian and one caucasian and both from south africa is epic meme :)) , and to top it of with jokes like that "crime" you deserve a medal! GG never change!
But he put the coin in his nose, when blowing the balloon😂. That "fooled" them?😂😂
The fact that you think that's the whole trick actually just shows you were also fooled. Cuz that's not how the whole trick was done. They get one chance to guess correct and they didn't guess it correctly either
@henriquerodrigues7795 8:42 and a half you can clearly see he is holding 2 coins one in top of the other
At 2:21 when he's showing the signed coin(s) you can slightly see that it's actually 2 coins sandwiched together. You can see it again at 8:42 when they verify the "coin". I liked the trick but it kinda was less of a "wow magic" moment and more of a "I wonder how they did it?" moment.
the real trick is him fitting the coin in his nose in such a short time.
