Tony was arrested later that week for $100 counterfeit money.
@Rob Deatherage I mean, I assume he had more than that lol. Or maybe he has his money split into individual dollars, spread amongst his clothing and body, so any found stash has exactly one dollar. Then one of them *could* be in his ass.
This gave me a good laugh 😆
@@moistsimba same lmao
Plot twist: Magician contracted foot and mouth disease that same week
Lol
Usually Penn makes a big comedic fuss about being fooled. But with this one, he seems genuinely unsettled that he had two thoughts on how it was done and both of them were wrong.
Doesn't help that all the effects he showed are extremely common and you can get them at any magic shop for dirt cheap (hence the "wen to the magic shop" story behind it). The main twist being the dollar to 100 dollars roller gimmick... making it be a signed bill totally flips the effect on its head. Great stuff using basic magic props and putting his own great twist on it.
@Robert It is not, that gimmick has been around for ages. I just said that... "you can get them at any magic shop". He just put his own twist on it that made it a hell of a lot more impressive. I also just said that too. You have reading comprehension issues.
@@ForTheOmnissiah Amd his twist was indeed a gimmick of his own
@@ForTheOmnissiah as soon as he pulled it out i was like "this trick, really?" then i realise where hes going with the signature. I think its really smart how he incorporated cheap magic shop tricks.
I think P&T knew how it was done when they looked in the case by their reactions but they already guessed wrong.
For the Omnissiah Reading comprehension issues...😂pure gold
He took home his Fool Us Trophy laughing to himself like a crazy person all the while.
“And you’ll see that $1 bill change to $100 bill”
FBI: “noted...”
Hilarious
Hahaha
I see watchu did there, clever man.
actually Itd be the Secret service. They are the ones that handle counterfeiting.
I feel most people wont understand the layers of this joke, but i do...i see you mah boi
It's so obvious:
he did the magic shake.
The Harlem I mean Magic Shake.
Ah yes, the oldest trick in the book
1. Collect underpants
2. ?
3. Profit
It's so obvious...
I noticed all of them lol
Brother are you a magician?
I always love it when Teller is fooled. His face lights up so much! You can see the love and passion he has for illusion.
Hell yes!
Couldn't agree more.
I think there is a genuine love for being stumped like when you were a kid watching this stuff for the first time. Amazing trick Adam.
They ALWAYS want to be fooled. They don’t give it away easy since Teller is an amazing magic scholar and Penn is dirty carney trash so they have everything except Spain covered 99% of the time.
@@john-paulsilke893 i love that you described penn as "dirty carney trash" lol.
I figured it out. Notice how after Tony writes his name, Adam is very careful NOT to touch the ink at all. The ink is also a very dark color despite coming from a purple marker. When he first places the bill in the case, you can see/hear him rubbing something, kind of like he's creasing the bill. I'm pretty sure at this point, he places some sort of paper or similar medium over the still-wet ink to lift it off the $1 bill and then quickly transfer it to the $100 bill also in the case. This would account for how he transferred the signature without it being a negative image (the negative was on the lifting medium) and why the $100 bill's ink was a considerably lighter color. This trick is a fancy version of lifting newspaper ink with silly putty.
This is totally wrong. The signatures don't match at all and if you pause you can easily tell. He write's Tony's name himself with a marker when he first opens the briefcase. Why he uses a different color, I don't know.
@@whetlarper lmao he literally helps sell the effect used during this act, it's a perfect duplicate. Why choose to lie about something you know nothing about th-cam.com/video/06IR649kZsU/w-d-xo.html
@@whetlarper The signatures absolutely match, it just goes from a black color on the $1 to a purple color on the $100, aka he transferred the signature.
Absolutely correct, I can't imagine it being anything else. He had so many opportunities to do stuff behind the briefcase.
But then again... how'd he do it? It's still, sure sure, he imprinted the ink onto something else and then back on the other bill... We know that. But how'd he do it so swiftly and smoothly? Also, if it was that easy, wouldn't Penn & Teller open the box and immideatly know how it was done?Isn't that how he fooled them, they can only figure it out partially, but not entirely
Absolutely love when the deciding factor of whether they can say fooled or not is based on whether they can inspect the suspected method, and then are granted permission and realize they were wrong. Masterfully done and wonderfully entertaining. Fantastic job. Thanks for that.
I absolutely LOVE how Penn & Teller allow the magicians to post Fool Us content on their own TH-cam channels. It may be my favorite thing about them yet. 14 million+ views for Adam's channel.
I know what you mean, I totally agree
But I wonder how much control penn&teller actually have over granting permission like that
It's their show, sure..but usually shows are with a production company that owns the broadcast rights n marketing costs are their responsibility
Maybe this show has a completely different arrangement in this area but, hollywood being what it is...everyone has their slice of the pie or you don't get a show
I mean it’s filmed and edited by the Fool Us team but ultimately it’s the magicians trick and thus their content
Its because they own the trick and its their intellectual property, show does not own any right over these tricks so they have to allow them as technically and ethically it is their property
@@seamusmaguire2160 Well... yes and no. Mostly no... But rather then bore you with the minutia of legal contracts, broadcasting rights, intellectual and contractual obligations, its easier to just explain that Penn and Teller are big enough stars that they dont care and just said "the hell with it, let the performers air on their own channels, we dont care"
@@govindprajapati2155 From what's said on Penn's podcast, the terms CW provides includes not posting the show's clips elsewhere. Though, they don't really enforce it (obviously). CW is hoping to get folks to go check it out for the free stream (with ads) on their platform instead of coming here.
They were talking with one guest that has their video down for copyright and mentioned someone on the staff goes through once in a while and gets them taken down. But, if they send a request for exception it's almost always granted. Some just don't bother.
Favorite thing about this is the volunteer saying "I see that weird cap." Just perfect delivery 😂
LOL i clicked on this video because i didn’t remember it, but as soon as i saw Tony, i went “Oh i remember this guy!”
the cap over the cap trick
@@Tysto fq

Ya that “volunteer” *wink* *wink*
Tony is the perfect guest. Doesn't interfere but has great reactions and humor.
And a short name.
He totally added to the act
Guys it says in the description how he did it. He used J.C Rodarte’s “Clone” to copy the signature. It’s essentially a stamp. The marker isn’t actually a sharpie, but a marker with special ink that can be transferred to a pad, and then transferred from the pad onto another bill. Notice how he designated a box for Tony to write his name. This was to ensure that his signature was small enough to fit on the transfer pad in its entirety. It’s an amazing effect, and he performed it perfectly.
To further add to this, the ink color is different. Originally it was black, it changes to purple after the roller.
@@thebitch9224 Nah... it was the same color. Purple sharpie... it looked dark when he held it down against the light before putting it in the briefcase.
Doesn’t say anymore
@@thebitch9224 false. It was purple the entire time.
If that was true, it would copy it backwards, so that doesn't make sense, kinda like looking in a "mirror"
I was wondering why I went to the bank and got a $100 bill with “Tony” written on it
I hope the wondering part is mostly about why you went to the bank
@@dhLotan What do you mean?
Lol
H-005 Are you dumb stupid or dumb??
@@MrAnderson222 Go ahead then, explain what they didn't get.
and Tony wasn't expecting to make the easiest 99 dollars of his entire life that night LOL
OsamaBinLooney I think he lost a dollar bc if it were me that things going in a frame and on the wall lol
He’s in Vegas. I’m sure he was, just not that way lol
Tony seems like hes overacting.
It's not like hes actually a random audience member
are you REALLY so idiotic as to think that I thought the 100 dollar bill appeared out of thin air magically?
he obviously had the 2 bills stuck together so when he signed the one, it went onto the other bill and when he rolled it, it peeled off the one dollar bill off the hundred
He's SO happy when Penn starts into the "window" frame" schtick. He knew they had it wrong right there. Great trick!
I love how the show allows magicians to upload their performances to their own channels
As an adult, I always keep single dollar bills folded up in my sock, too.
I have a bad habit of giving those away on Friday nights
folded? nah, mine are rolled, tightly rolled.
Thats how corona spreads.
You're gross
You must be from Chicago 🤔
the trick was nice...but watching Teller jumping for the trophy was more entertaining
Teller is adorable
I was gonna say something and saw this. Teller was like “what the fuck? Give that man his trophy immediately before I lose my job” lol
Absolutely agree😂
Hahahahah true story.
1 thousandth like lol
After reading like 600 of the comments and thinking about it myself as well I would say: He gets the bill signed at the beginning as he needs some time, and so we have the in-between tricks. He is giving a narrative all the while which means you think he couldn't be doing very much at the same time. As other people have stated I believe he uses the time to simply copy the signature onto the 100$, you cannot see his hands when he's at his box this is why the lid is up. Also with a thick marker pen and given a very restricted area to write in if anyone is told to sign their name they will print their first name in capitals or initial it, hence making it straightforward to copy. The roller board thing obviously is sucking in the dollar note and putting out the 100$, so after he copied the name he just had to put the 100 into the roller. Giving away the 100$ at the end means P&T can't compare the two notes and the audience member himself is highly unlikely to closely scrutinise it even if he suspected it was not his writing he would only notice much later and he no longer has the dollar bill to make sure. The thing about the trick is that it is very well executed but I am surprised P&T couldn't figure it out
That's a very good explanation, congratulations. I compared the frames of video with his name, and it's very close but seems slightly different. Also, adding to your idea, any sort of transfer of the pen ink from his bill to the hundred would require doing it twice so that it doesn't read backwards. That's complicated and would seem to require some apparatus they were looking for in his case.
Yes came to the same conclusion, and was also wondering why one was black and the other blue (Probably camera issues) but yes, they were close, but not exact.
They probably knew it after the show, but didn't want to guess multiple things. Their guess of a window (I think a hole cut into the $1 bill) was also possible.
@@Octochiken But for the window to make sense there would have to be a switch, and the handling was really clean, so no idea at what point Penn & Teller would think he did a switch for a gimmicked bill.
Congratulations, this the best explanation and it all make sense 🎉❤
i love teller's reactions to being fooled. even after all these years as a magician, there's still that wonderment at 'how did he do that?!'

This entire routine is based on misdirection. From the very beginning, we were manipulated, beautifully.

@@oz_jones I was thinking of something else
I love how fast they jumped up when given permission to look in the box. Once they were told there was no window they were definitely confused lol.
These days the real magic trick is finding somebody that carries cash.
Order a pizza and you'll find one
@@kuribro443 Exact change please.
@@diamondflaw yes sir, I've got like 100 bucks in loose change in car.
And a 1 dollar note, wtf
@awesomeguynamedjon its rich or middle class people dont carry cash much
I love getting to hear the little bit of magic jargon when they are trying to sort out how they did it.
"window" you cut a window into his one dollar bill where he's going to sign his name with the 100 dollar bill behind it so that when he signs the 1 dollar bill he's actually signing the 100. The other idea was having him sign a bill that wasn't actually his dollar bill that was a trick bill, which turned into a 100 over time, persay with special ink. The problem there is where did he dispose the bill and it wasn't inside the box x.x My guess would be the ink press he used at the end exchanged the previous 1 dollar bill with the inked 100 dollar bill.
+Ethan Elliot Great analysis
Best part of the show!
But let's just say he used the "Window" trick, can't the signer tell that the patterns on a the two bills are off even if it's a fairly small window?! I certainly would realize it immediately. Hmmmm
Looks like that "bill changing" roller wound up the $1 bill inside the cylinder, while releasing the $100 simultaneously.
Or when he role he change the money and print out the ink
I loved the simplicity here. The way he was so casual about the story and the way he escalated the changes. Really well done.
I must say, watching the first time moving the signature really fooled me. But watching it a second time seeing the colour of the signature change gave me the clue I needed
“Can I borrow a dollar bill from you”
“I don’t have cash”

The way Penn says "We had two choices, both of them wrong," at 9:44 just shows how truly dumbfounded they were by this trick.
Ngl it really wasn’t that special in this instance. It was just a gimmick that they’ve probably never heard of before. The method they guessed would’ve worked as well
Yup, the trick was revealed inside the case, it just wasn't what they guessed. They were fooled.

I love how Teller is more excited to give the trophy than he is for receiving it 🤣❤
"We had two choices, both were wrong." Priceless!! Totally earned it!!
All the “pre-tricks” are commonly known, it’s the signature on the $100 that’s the trick that won him the trophy. Almost immediately I thought it’s just transferable ink. But no one seems to be bringing that simple concept up...
Normal ink soaks into the surface you write on, while transferable ink is thicker and mainly acts like a latex based paint when applied. The device he used to roll out the $100 would be a perfect device to pull the “ink paint” off the $1 bill and restick it to the $100.
Giving the man the $100 bill would also be very smart because it now gives away the opportunity for P&T to feel/notice the type of ink used. Latex based paint is noticeably thicker. You can also peel it.. the audience member (if real) wouldn’t be focusing on that immediately; after all, he just made $100. Which adds to the distraction.
Well, that’s how I’d replicate it at least.
Yeah - the pre-tricks were just for kicks & grins, the dime stack was fun, and easy to see the swap if you were looking for it.
I'm pretty sure you're right about the ink - something to do with that marker. The bill was in the case for quite a while while he was swapping stuff out... of course with a signature like that he totally could have just forged it.
@@MichaelHughes124 the slight is done long before the cap is placed... Might help you too see what is done.
wouldnt the transferred ink be mirrored tho? youd have to transfer it twice to get back to the normal signature
@@michaeldusenbury6744Yeah. The idea behind these thick latex like transferable inks is that you can peel them off and stick them back on. Not transfer them surface to surface by contact and the liquid soaking.
@@chippyprice1993 are you suggesting he transferred it in the case?
Teller is such a sweetheart omg he's so genuine in his silent joy it's so fun to watch

I love this routine soo much. Adam Wilber is a freaking rock star.
I love how excited they are to look in the case. Very nice trick.
Should've put a piece of paper in the case saying "FOOLED YOU!".
Genius
Love how Penn at the end states to teller "you had two choices, both of them wrong".
They were absolutely stunned. Teller looked so happy.
This whole series is actually a story that ted is telling his children about the time when aunt lily was in a magic show. And penn and teller were the judges. 🤣🤣
You're wrong it's actually a Buffy spin-off where Willow pretends magic is not real

When you pulled out the paddle, and then the Buddha's papers... I literally just started giggling. When I was a kid and discovered the magic store at the mall, those were the first two tricks I ever bought. I thought it was a nice touch using such basic over the counter tricks for what wound up being a stunning performance.
Thanks so much. That was my goal. To show that the oldest tricks in the books can still entertain :)

I always love when they have to come up on stage to inspect something
What a wonderful story of a young boy going to a magic shop and wanting to learn more and more. Wonderful trick/illusion...and story.
Just to elaborate since everyone is calling this guy out. Penn & Teller know how he did all the tricks, all except for the finale. They know how he changed the 1 into the 100 it's common knowledge among the magician community. What stumped them was how he managed to do that easy trick, while getting the guys signature on the 100. This is the first time they've seen a signature trick done with the swap trick in unison. That's why they asked to look into his suitcase, and even then, they still could not figure it out, so this magician won.
Wowee, you don't say? Explain how he did it?
He had plenty of time behind his case. He could be a very skilled artist at copying signatures. OR it could be a special ink that was removed and replaced on the other bill using an adhesive mat or something.
Yeah the ink was transferred, it's clear that the ink has become more purple/blue and you can see there's fading on the edges of the signature on the 100 where the roller didn't quite press hard enough to transfer the ink over.
Not the same signature. Go watch it again and look at how the T and O are written on the $1 then $100... Different signatures. There's no space between them on the $1 but is on the $100.
Yes, .. you are ABSOLUTELY correct. You have an eye for detail, IHIavok, .. they are NOT the SAME signatures, .. close, .. but, .. NOT THE SAME. The only correct thing answer to the trick is that the magician signed Tony's name with a marker in the suitcase. The only thing I cannot figure out, is how the $1 is eaten up by the roller ... and how the new bill, the $100 bill THAT TONY NEVER, EVER even handled, .. was exposed .. but this is a technical issue, with a special roller that sucks up the 1st bill, .. and then lays down the 2nd bill that is the counterfeit signature on the$100 bill.
*A window?*
window to another dimension?
How To Make Sushi
Window, Transparent, etc.. referring to a clear sticker that gets peeled off and transferred to the other bill.
I think it's more simple. I think he just wrote "Tony" on the $100 inside the box. I compared the two bills and the signature isn't an exact match.
TheBraveZombies, I would have countered that it was close enough that the person brought on stage recognized it as their own, but then again, they just got paid $99 so might just have been willing to keep their mouth shut. ;)
Agreed. Especially the box is off. On the 100 the lines don't match at all.
The color seems off as well, but that may be lighting. The only other thing I can think of is that the ink is copied in the rolling thing. It sucks it up and transfers it. That would explain why there are gaps in the lines, as the copy is imperfect.
They we're staring into that box as if there was a note in it that said "you have been thoroughly duped"
Great great stuff man!!!! Wow and you did some classics too! Wooooow! I am amazed!!
This reminds me of all the magic kits I had as a child. I actually had every single one of the tricks - except of course for his signature trick - but there is even a kit for that as well.
time for 2 minutes hate
yea i saw Derren brown mess with people doing this trick .
changing a 1 dollar to a 100 $ and convincing people they could buy that Gizmo thing and make killer money at home lol witch was kinda funny to see people actually think that it was real and Legal
Yeah had the same kit i think 😂 i know exactly how he did all those
Thats easy cz i had those
so you're saying Penn and Teller couldn't figure out the trick even though there's a "kit" for it that you had
Love watching Teller's reactions, the man is a kid at heart
Penn once said that Teller is a walking magic encyclopedia. So Teller always want to be fooled. I think Penn too, but his schtick is to be the pissed one.
My takeaway ... Great routine and Allison is just cute as hell ! Love the mix of common close-up tricks, with the trap at the end. Really nice and a well-deserved Fool-Em
Tony face was priceless
Tony is in on it. the signatures are different. My guess is he promised him $100 to play along and had him sign the $100 before the show.
They aren't just different. They're in different ink. First signature is black ink, second is purple.
RC Slyman note that the first one looks darker as you only see it facing dowm
The magician wouldn't be allowed to perform if he needed a plant. There's a strict policy about that when screening magicians for the show, because people who fool Penn and Teller get to open for them in Vegas. Even if he did sneak a plant onto the show, it would be immediately apparent after being brought onto their Vegas show that he needs someone in on it, which isn't the "magic" these guys deal in. Dude's an inventor, you don't know how he did it, deal with it.

Dream spectator you got aswell. Tony, what a legend. Not over the top, really good guy, want to help and make the show better for you and the experience better him and everyone else.
This show is such a gem for giving even the youtube rights to magicians, not only for the money but they can cut what they need to
Pretty sure they were close. When he first gets the $1 bill @1:14 you can see his hand bring a piece of paper with it when he flattens the bill from the side shot of the camera. Fairly sure he is using a sort of transfer paper on the bill. When he "flattens" it a second time might be removing the backing? The roller has a slit in the rolling pin part that captures the $1 inside of the rolling tube and stores it inside of it while replacing it with the $100 as it goes. The transfer paper/signature gets stuck to the plate on the machine and when the $100 is rolled out it gets moved to the $100.
In other words P&T were trying to figure out how he swapped the bill. In reality the guy invented a way to move the signature itself.
Oh and the nickles to dimes was just a stack of metallic metal with the shape of a nickle on top of it. When he showed the guy how they would "fall off" he swapped the stack of nickles with a stack/casing of magnetic/sticky metal with the dimes underneath. When the brass cap is put on top it lifts the casing off and reveals the dimes.
Edit to add: This also perfectly explains their shock at the guy getting to keep the $100. It is physically impossible to give the guy back his $1 as it is inside the machine, and the ink transfer is only one-way.

Yeah it could be some special ink transferring thing or he palmed the original bill and placed his own special paper bill. So you can write on that special paper and when it is exposed to heat or water or some thing in that roller, the paper changes to another image. That’s just my theory on it.
You are actually correct in your assumption that the signature was moved. The thing that is different is that the original 1 dollar bill still has a signature on it. When he puts the 1 dollar bill on the roller, you can see him press down on the right side of the bill as it is facing up with the signature facing the yellow mat. He then applies more pressure as he rolls the 100 out of the roller at the start because he is trying to make sure the transfer stays. He also leaves the 100 on the roller after he is done, again with the signature concealed, to make sure that the ink dries before handing over the bill. That transfer is what made the ink color change as many other people noticed in other comments. It also explains the difference in spacing that people saw too. The pad that the bills are laid on is the transfer, not the roller itself
Had you looked closer, you would see that the signatures and the box they were written in are quite different between the one and the hundred. The trick here is that he wrote tony's name on the hundred without anyone seeing when he did it, and while he tried to mimic the writing of the original, it is slightly different. It convinces the audience member because it resembles what he originally wrote, so he will simply assume he wrote it, after all people rarely write their name identically from one signature to the next, any artifacts from his typical signature will be disregarded as nerves or excitement.
Two separate bills, two separate signatures. The signature on the $1 is black, the signature on the $100 is blue. The signatures also look different if you compare them closely.
I believe the ink transfer happened when he first got the signature and notice he used both hands on the folded bill pressing it down at 1:55 as he says you have the right amount. the comical sign distracting from his action of pressing the still wet ink onto a transfer.Notice he used both hands again to reach in to get the one handed penny flipper. the transfer was a different color due to the press. Again notice when he reaches in for the press he only uses one hand.
YESSS!!!! Beast!!!! BEASSSSSTTTTTTT
LOL Funny seeing you on here.
Peter McKinnon get outta here, quitter!
Peter also here. and ellusionist wow :)
Thanks so much brother. BOOM!
That's the Most Random Video I expected Peter's comment In 😂 Its a Pleasant Surprise ❤
I enjoyed very much this performance, put a smile in my face
*Does the magic shake
The US government: Wait, that's illegal
I just assumed that he was gradually duplicating the signature onto the $100 everytime we went behind the briefcase.
I think you're right or at least on the right track. If you do a split screen and pause at 1:39 on one side and 6:22 on the other there are a number of very small differences between the two signatures, for instance the shape of the cross on the T and the top right corner of the box.
xdmx nah. The big difference if the size of the signature. The og looks smaller. If it isn’t then I have no idea how he did it but I think he recreated it
I think it is the ink in the pen that was used.
xdmx and it was a different color
nah. you can tell when he opened the briefcase, that he was copying the signature by rubbing it onto the 100 bill. The entire table was shaking.
*News flash*
Man arrested for using counterfeit 100!
News flash?! Ur an idiot
@Jason Finn it's an old $100 bill. It looks a lot more similar to a $1 bill than the new $100's which allows for the trick to work. I'm guessing you didn't think things through before commenting.
Fake or not, what makes you guys think he's gonna spend that money?
@Jason Finn old $100's don't have the blue line...
you dumbass
Each time a see a fooler I get emotional. Nicely done, congrats!
I think the reason Penn was so disturbed about getting fooled was because the rest of the act was pretty standard as far as magic tricks go. It was just the signature piece that tripped them up.
I love that the Fooled Us trophy is a big F U.
Basically sums up Penns attitude when he gets "fooled"
A subtle FU...lol
Anubis Pup not to mention it's the all seeing eye
I always thought the FU as a subtle message to the established magician community, The Magic Circle, which dictates that magicians DO NOT disclose their tradecraft.
Anubis Pup
You could see small letters next to each big one, sums up to Fool Us, but hard to notice from screen... Yet the irony remains.
I _love_ the fact that I own a money roller trick, so I knew what was going to happen, and then the signature absolutely stunned me. Bravo, man!
Great performance and great personal storytelling!
The signatures are different. 1, they are different colours, 2, the angle of the line on the T changes, and 3, The spacing between the box, and the edge of the note changes. 1:20 amd 6:20 for the comparisons
no, its the same (except the color)... while the note was in the box, he would have placed the 1 dollar note directly on top of a 100 dollar bill, letting the ink dye into that one.
1:39 and 6:23*
6:26 the volunteer looks longingly at the 100.
Brian Minton wouldn’t you tho
classic
Brian Minton how are you verified with zero subs lmao
I actually know a guy that did it in front of me while I was playing a gig. He took 5 bucks off of a kid, wrapped it in paper, stabbed the paper with a pen and started tearing it, revealed there's no 5 bucks inside the torn paper, crunched it up into a ball in his hand and when he unfolded it it turned into a 20 which he gave the kid.
Seeing this guy do it in front of my eyes, as he did many other cool tricks, and also talking to him at many gigs, I realized that even though many people think it's one or two simple things... making a magic trick consists of so many things.
The way he explained it is "there is no secret, there is no trick, I'm just tuned in that way and try to be as creative as possible with what I'm given".
I'm so glad this guy talked about creativity, because that's exactly what it is. To be able to do something in so many ways that even Penn and Teller are left guessing...
I love how excited P&T get when they think they know but don't. Being able to discover new things in their profession has got to be super refreshing.
Wow dude that is a trick he should be selling. Very cool effect. Being the son of a magic inventor and owner of a magic company. I know how hard it is to make a new effect, how much work those guys put into that split second of magic. Truly incredible.
I think it's amazing that Penn and Teller were able to work it where the magicians can upload their own acts to TH-cam without issue.
You're probably not getting the ad money from it, but hopefully the publicity pays off.
I‘d say so. I would never have found out about this great show, without the videos here. I knew their name, but always assumed they‘re not excellent, or that the magic isn‘t serious at all, but things I’ve seen before. Oh, how stupid and wrong I was…!
I need that money roller please !! Lol
Its Sharlele HELL YEAH
Same, turn a dollar bill into a hundred dollar bill then change that bill into one hundred one dollar bills and turn all of those ones into hundreds and repeat haha
Pulsjax A.K.A Nitroburst 😂😂😂💓
Country that has the money roller and the pen used for the signature, please.
Why? Because the pain contains slow dry stamp ink, and he's able to put this in the bottom of the rolling machine they're in the hole trick the stamp ink transfers to the $100 bill in the rolling machine and is merely revealed in the same way that the rolling machine is always worked. The $100 bill also looks a little damp and maybe a wetting agent applied to it to help reactivate the stamping can case it dries faster than the trick allows.
That money roller is actually used as a scam in diff countries specially in london the pretend that the black paper is government reject but still legal so they change the black paper into a $100 or some other money onlybto find out that ther were 2 bills on that the black and the money so it looked like it changed but it just switched
What an amazing act from start to finish, !
: Teller's reaction was great there at the end. Wonderful show, man. Very way.
When Tony got home it turned into a $100 Monopoly bill - with his name on it.
Lmao
I would be so hurt
Love this one. Really slick performance and his interaction with P&T at the end was just lovely.
Mindblowing magic, friend. I n=enjoyed that immensely. Thank you for sharing.
7:19 "Always keep a notebook by your bedside". Yes. That has helped me many times.
The look on Teller's face! Honestly I don't think he gets any greater pleasure than from being fooled.
RIGHT?!?! His face, when he was looking in my case, was my favorite part of the whole thing. Love it!
This has to be one of my favorite episodes now because they’re just completely flabbergasted
I wish magic tricks were taught more in schools. or at least featured in curriculum. seems like a great way to inspire logic, thinking, and questioning
I have been watching P&T FU since years. This one is one of the bests of my favourites.
I love how childlike they are😂 “theres no window! Im looking in the box!” Both of them run on stage
Tht dude got mugged in the wendys parking lot after the show
I’m kinda concerned
Wendy can be a brutal chick for sure!
WOW! Really outside the box I totally love this!
Ahhh. I figured it out!
Very clever!
Timing is key!
Really like your presentation: humble, genial and civilized
