Ditto. On first viewing, I just went along for the ride. Wheeee. On second viewing, and knowing where it was going, I got it all. That made me appreciate the act even more! 🤌😗
The magician "ruining" the trick by casually preempting the end (like when he shows one hand at a time from beneath the handkerchief, supposedly _before_ he escapes) is probably my favorite magic trope. It's understated -- by acting casually about it, the magician doesn't draw attention to it and it _looks_ perfectly natural, but when you think about it, they _shouldn't_ even be _able_ to do it. It's like the magician saying "I know that you know that the trick can happen at any moment, so let's have fun with this." Danial executed this fantastically!
It's smart because we instinctively know that he can probably get out of those thumbcuffs, so by pre-empting it just before the reveal it throws us a curveball because we thought that it was going to be the final reveal. Now we're not sure what we should be looking for and we don't have enough time to speculate before he reveals the card around his two thumbs.
the deliberate showing of slipping his cuffs was a distraction so you wouldn't see him poking holes in the cards. putting the cards away and acting like he wouldn't do the card part because Allison "screwed it up" was also a distraction. he didn't pull out the same pack
I'm laughing out loud all the way through and, like everyone else, astonished at the end. This guy is a natural comedian with perfect timing and stage presence
I wasn't astonished. I saw him put the pack of cards in his pocket and bring it out again. The weight of the cards matched the weight of the thumb cuffs. The 6th of hearts was a forced card, with a duplicate one in his pocket.
I couldn't care less that you didn't fool Penn and Teller, you got their praise and admiration, you certainly fooled me, and I'm pretty sure you entertained everyone watching. Awesome performance!
I gotta tell you, man, I think their compliment of your act is probably worth more than having fooled them. It was a blast to watch and I appreciate you sharing this with us! Muchas gracias, muy bien senor.
What an absolute jewel of an act. So charming, so funny without being annoying, and the end trick is a complete reversal from what you expect, so that even someone used to these kinds of tricks never sees it coming.
"so funny without being annoying". Kudos! Usually, when a fooler starts up with a few jokes I wince, expecting that I'll have to put up with the humor to get to the trick, but this guy was the real deal.
Penn called this act perfect four times in a matter of minutes. It may not have ended with a Fool Us trophy, but that level of praise is priceless. Beautiful performance in every way.
Wow. You got me good. I actually thought that Allison had in fact ruined the card trick and that you were going to skip it and do only the escape. I should have seen it coming -- no pro is going to get caught out like that. The ending with the six of hearts being found again was absolutely brilliant. Great job.
No that part was pretty obvious. First he said "put the card wherever you want", then he said "say stop!" and then said "put the card here please". Maybe native English speakers were fooled because they thought this was a language barrier but since I'm a non native English speaker myself, I could tell that wasn't a mistake and he did it on purpose
@@hittingyouoverthehead , yes, but he did a good job playing it off. It was plausible that the whole thing was just a joke and he wasn't actually going to do a card trick. He doesn't just misdirect as to how he does the trick, but as to whether he's even going to do the trick. lol
Nobody who gets on this show would make such an amateur mistake. Besides, it didn't matter where she put the card in the deck because he already knew which card she had taken, or more accurately he knew which card he had forced her to take.
Have watched a ton of these videos and this is by far my favourite. No stupid or over the top acting and the whole thing just feels so genuine and smooth
Okay after watching it a bunch of times I think I figured it out but man this is so well done^^ If I had not the ability to like watch over and over again and slomotion and stuff there would be no way
Dude was at my birthday party years ago. It's really more of a stand up show than a magic show. But that doesn't mean the magic is not really impressive.
Man, for so many people the language barrier can be such an obstacle for a performer, but you take the language and use it as such a wonderful and hilarious compliment to your act! Absolutely brilliant, one of my favorite performances ever on the show!
It's actually integral to the act as well, as you see, his English isn't so good when he is giving instructions to Allison about putting the card back. ;)
The fact that Daniel does not speak English as a first language/fluently but still managed to pull off the jokes and be so charming is impressive in itself really, and makes him a great performer. But the trick itself was also fantastic and although Penn and Teller may have figured it out, the average non-magician would still be totally fooled (at least I was) and it was really a pleasure to watch!! I think having Penn say that your trick is “perfect” is almost better than fooling them tbh!!
He is genuinely warm and welcoming, open and funny. The way he touches Teller on the shoulder, and openly examines and admits he didn’t fool them, is so heart warming! What an amazing human being! And the trick was great and his comedic timing is impeccable. To top it of with his warm personality _(the way he guides his a audience guest off stage is so personal!)_ is so genuine if makes him one of the few naturals on stage, completely and utterly himself. Amazing stuff!!
I am so with P&T on this... after the laughter had subsided, the first thing I thought, was "That was just beautiful"... because it was. Genuinely awe inspiring, thank you.
You liked my comment... it brought me back to the video, which I watched again... and it is even better the second time, even though you know what will happen! My jaw was still on the floor, I was still laughing the whole way through, and my mood has been lifted for the full day because of how fun and amazing this was... truly a masterpiece.
I love how at the very end, when Daniel nods acknowledging they know how the trick was done, Teller points to something they wrote just for him and when the camera changes you can see Daniel saying thank you to Teller. Daniel, ¡ha sido una actuación fantástica!
Feel like the fact that they refused to say any hints out loud is an accomplishment enough. To have Penn & Teller say your trick is a GEM and PERFECTION.....I mean dang, that's some high praise
Well, he does a great job using the not so good English as _part of_ his routine. It might not have been as entertaining if he was a native speaker. And not just because of the JJ joke. lol
This and Daniel Daortiz are the two best by a mile. Something about spanish speaking magicians! They both had this perfect combination of chaos, humor, and perfect misdirection.
This was so good and funny that I now feel a little guilty that I rewatched it to see when the switches happened. Really well done, I laughed many times! Thanks for your performance
Oh man, you remind me of one of my friends from many years ago. We sold cars together and absolutely loved WRC racing (and cars in general) so we got along really well. He was from Paraguay and told me about all the WRC circuits he'd been to in South America. This reminded me of him because of how insanely on-point and witty everything was. Well written, well-performed, and well paced.
I don't even care if he fooled Penn & Teller, he was one of the most funny, charismatic and entertaining performers to appear on Fool Us and the trick was beautifully executed with an unpredictable ending. Daniel K is a natural entertainer and thankyou for this performance.
"Completely a surprise and then totally inevitable" is a beautiful and poetically simple way to explain the absolute best magic routine payoffs. Where everything in the routine was leading to an obvious and inevitable payoff and yet none of us saw it coming. The magic isn't hidden in layer upon layer of complexity because Daniel's skill and talent made it seem like he was stripping away so many layers until you feel like there is nothing he is hiding. Then BAM he hits you with the trick and its fantastic. Anyone with about $20 and access to a magic shop has everything physically needed to do this trick but next to nobody could perform it like this.
Danial! Omg. Great act! I used to do a similar comedy thumb cuffs routine in the early 90s. I went away from magic and during that time i lost all of my magic things. I was left with only a few trinkets and the magic in my heart. Today i am studying my way back into magic. Until i saw this, i had forgot how well the thumb cuffs played for the spectators. This routine brought tears to my eyes. They are there still as i write this. Thank you for existing. I am going to buy the thumb cuffs and add a card routine. So perfect i wish i would have thought about it. Please except my rendition of it as a compliment to you. Maybe i will get it up on youtube. Again. Thank you for existing.
Love the program, and your segment. My only beef with the show is that fooling & entertaining the audience is the real Job #1. A loss for everyone would be a dull trick that happens to Fools P&T. And I too, laughed out loud at "JJ".
I always enjoy the gag where the person pulls a hand out that's supposed to be tied up, it just makes me laugh everytime. Well done sir, good luck in the future!!
What a perfectly smooth performance! I loved every moment of it, and was cracking up when you pulled out your thumbs to adjust the handkerchief and deck. I can't fathom how much that praise meant from Penn, where he didn't even want to speak in code in order to preserve the pure magic of it all. I could tell that P&T were truly impressed with the entire delivery. Major kudos to you, good sir.
I loved it. It was fun, the reactions were good and i haven't got the slightest idea how it worked, and i never EVER wanna know ;-) Greetz from the Netherlands
This got to be the 5th time I'm watching this and not because I'm trying to figure it out but because the act was so good. You sir embodied everything about stage magic in that performance. Wonderful.
That was one of the best routines I have ever seen, and I love your personality. The words, the moves, the jokes, everything, that was awesome, I loved it. ¡Bravo!
this routine was such a joy. the fact that they figured it out takes NOTHING away from how incredible it was. you have such charm and charisma and, sir, your english is perfect.
Dear Daniel, I have watched so many great magicians performing on this show and many have left me speechless. But among all those great performers, nobody has amazed me as you did, and it really touched me very much... Thank you!
The Houdini initials joke is hella underrated. Fantastic trick!
Yeah I loved that one. Probably whooshed on most of the audience/viewers.
Yeah I feel like only spanish speakers truly understood that one
I enjoyed the look on their face that was just like “shh no one tell the white people”
It honestly took me a couple seconds to figure it out. But that is indeed a 5 star joke😂
@@TSfish94 "the white people?" Sheesh...
I love how Penn is so respectful in his analysis and feedback to the Magicians' work. Great judge!!!!
I felt that too
This time the admiration she showed was truly amazing. A lot of people get the "that was amazing and some snarky quips"
But this was so genuine.
Ye, they just love the art
I really respect that about Penn.
I am always amazed how quickly Penn can come up with a reply, in code, if they were not fooled.
What style, what humour, what skill, what a triumph! As a fellow magician, I'm full of admiration Daniel - top class!
It's the humour that counts and yes, out of all the acts I've seen, he's in the top ten.
Ditto. On first viewing, I just went along for the ride. Wheeee. On second viewing, and knowing where it was going, I got it all. That made me appreciate the act even more! 🤌😗
What what in the butt.

Red herring!

Yeah, it's the first time I actually did a double take for it--and I've seen it before, too!
“Perfect” is the correct description of this trick. Just magnificent.
I love the JJ initials for Harry Houdini joke. The Spanish speakers got it right away.
Allison is so cute with her incredulous "nah ah!"
Her reaction is fake 😂😂 "i didnt feel anything" fake reactions 101 lmao
why she need to fake that when he literraly didnt do anything at that moment, all the sneaky stuff was done before that.
@@PuppetMaster-Blade TROLL 😠👎
@@jolujo5842 im not, half her reactions are fake and over the top 😆
@@PuppetMaster-Blade of course ... She is paid to act. 🤣
I'm laughing out loud all the way through and, like everyone else, astonished at the end.

@@yggdrasil7942 Also Manuel is his son, thats what Penn wroye on the note.......................Probably.
How very true

Perfect act with a lot of pocket props and great distractions. The fact its funny is the icing on the cake

My favourite after watching like 30 of these
how do you figure its underrated?
I attended language school in Montevideo, Uruguay for 8 months. This made me miss not being able to return there. Oh, that was amazing!
The fact that Daniel does not speak English as a first language/fluently but still managed to pull off the jokes and be so charming is impressive in itself really, and makes him a great performer.

One of the very best acts ever on this show
Thanks so much!!!!

This was spectacularly entertaining! Fantastic job, senor!
Penn wasn't lying, this was such a great performance.
Amazing work, Daniel!
Truely perfect, just as Penn says. Completely blew me away
I would watch you in a 1 hour long show and not get bored a single second really great work and you fooled me :D
Best routine I’ve ever seen. One of my favorites. Well done and thank you! ❤
Most underrated trick on Fool Us. The presentation really is perfecto!
Every time I watch this it gets better and better. Truly amazing performance and original act. Bravo!
Oh my gosh you were amazing and hilarious!!!!!
I loved the entire act, wonderful!
Great act! Congratulations from Argentina, Daniel!
Well done, that was great.
Never heard Penn speaking so highly of anyone's performance, and I think he's right.

One of the best, funniest, most well-timed acts I've seen. Absolute perfection, every magician should strive to perform as well as you did today.
So absolutly clean and just amazing.
What a great show! Why can’t all TV be this good .
What a likeable personality and what an entertaining trick!
Another great example of just because someone didn't fool Penn & Teller, doesn't mean the act wasn't superb in every way. You were wonderful!

Wow you can tell this is 1 hard-working man god bless him
The magic is simple but the presence is 10000% you rock the stage men
Great act. Loved it and laughed too. Superb.

Laughter is a key.
And you did the secret in a really smooth way.
Keep entertaining people.
Never stop 👍
Dear Daniel,
I have watched so many great magicians performing on this show and many have left me speechless.
But among all those great performers, nobody has amazed me as you did, and it really touched me very much...
Thank you!
