(And yes I was drunk on Matt's floor.)
I've watched every episode of FU and Simon is my favorite. His presentations are so elegant. As in design, it takes lots and lots of work and experience to make something appear straight forward, but it's easily recognized when someone sees it.
Absolutely- but especially the trick with the poker chips. Poetry in motion
When I first saw him on FU I felt like when I felt as a kid seeing magic trick. The trick with the poker chip is beautiful. In plain sight chips were apearing and disappearing. Even when I realized after rewatching how it's done it's stil probably my favorite trick on Fool Us. I'm gonna rewatch it right now actually.
There was a french close up card magic magician who astounded everyone and also fooled them. Don't remember his name but that routine was also beautiful

@@BlackWhirlies thanks
I love this style! No corny jokes or complicated setup, just straight forward magic. What a great trick!
DITTO!
he's FANTASTIC
I 100% agree with you. I love the simplicity of the act. No pretending that it's "magic" or anything, just plainly states it's an illusion and makes simple subtle movements. That makes the payoff so much more effective.
Lol so true. I actually miss that. Good ol' days of simple quick yet brilliant magic.
Exactly. Some magicians just ramble too much, like just get to the goddam trick. This guy went straight to business.
Your two appearances are my favorite. No fluff, just straight to the point perfect magic. You’re what makes magic so great
"YOU WON'T BELIEVE this clickbait title" and a lack of saying the outcome in the title gave me that much more respect for you. Amazing magic and performance! Thank you for the smiles and sense of wonder.
I only watch these Fool Us videos if the title doesn't give away the result - which, unfortunately, means that I mostly watch people who don't fool them...
You have to consider for a lot of these folks, their Fool Us segment is likely the biggest thing on their channel and they're trying to maximize click through.
@@LiminalQueenMedia that is a very valid point. I can't fault them for that. I do stand by what I said as a viewer, but it doesn't mean I don't watch and appreciate the "FOOLED" titles. Good point :)
@@AfromanSkeeter Its also easy to understand why you would be frustrated by it. Its a compromise of a lot of folks interests.
@@LiminalQueenMedia perhaps a middle ground could be found. TH-cam offering a spoiler black box for part of a title? Although, the reality of that is likely not likely realistic/helpful for their typical algorithms. Hard to say, but I like the alternative view you have pointed out.
This was magnificent to watch. No talks of miracles or magic. Just out there demonstrating absolutely mind blowing skill. Even knowing it’s fake, you can’t tell at all how or when.
By far you and Eric Mead are my two favorite Fool Us guests.
Great example! Yes both are great! When is Eric coming back?
Kostya Kimlat too
Two of the most purely magical feeling effects for sure.
What a class, elegance, honesty and control. I admire your work since your first appearance on Fool Us, and share your passion for this art. So happy that you fooled them again, congrats and cheers from Spain!!!
How embarrassing would it be if penn and teller had later discovered it was actually gimmicked lol…and they thought it wasn’t to prevent themselves from feeling foolish. Pretty funny, but I’m glad they were right and you fooled them. Truly truly beautiful astounding act. Well done and so entertaining, clean and quick, yet powerful
Still, shows their professionalism and respect for other magicians.
I love your style. Simple and elegant. For me magic is about the talent, ingenuity and insane amount of work you magician did in order to amaze us.
Thank you
500 years down the lane, this show will be a classic and Penn and Teller will still be regarded the greatest Jesters of all time
You think humanity will still be here in 500 years? 🤣
You have the loveliest smile of all foolers. It comes after years of practice and means a lot to you. It really feels amazing when one’s effort pays off.
Simón i watched your performance a year ago in TH-cam and I am back again as I was explaining what pure magic looks like. Your confidence and elegance adds to the presentation . Well done!
That was awesome! I was amazed by this trick, as with the other. Your style and casual way of explaining the trick is wonderful. Just a great trick, done with great class! All skill! Amazing!
Sleight of hand so good and clean, you believe in a gimmick prop first like Penn was suggesting! Awesome work
Astounding. Elegant. Perfect.
Shin Lim performs beautifully, Kostya Kimlat has smooth moves, Vitaly Beckman is a great thinker - but Simon, you are hands down the best magician to ever appear on stage in front of Penn & Teller, bar none.
To do what you do so elegantly, on a bare stage, with just your two hands and the absolute bare minimum props necessary to perform the illusion, takes a certain amount of guts and a hell of a lot of skill that I can only imagine took decades to refine.
The fact that you fooled them so hard the first time that they didn't even realise they'd been fooled was impressive enough, and it's a testament to your character that you took it in such good stride. Fooling them a second time, though - just wow.
I don't know if you have any plans to return to Melbourne to put on a show some day, but I really, really hope you do, because I would absolutely love to see you perform live.
One word Simon: You’re AMAZING! You’re one of the very few magicians that we can watch and enjoy daily! Come to Abu Dhabi or Dubai please! It will change your life and you will meet new people and loyal fans!
.25 speed @ just before 2:30 you can see the switch. Still one of the best F U in the entire series.
So the bills are folded together, he's doing some kind of high level origami
It’s not a real 100$ bill. Look like he covers with his hand one of the corners of the bill - one that probably says 50 on it
@@ketrab604 I doubt that bc he said the bill was not rigged.
Elegance! Such a small, clean, pure trick, just oozing elegance from every angle!
Well done Simon! Had the pleasure of working with you at the inaugural Steamboat is Magic Festival in 2015 at the Historic Chief Theater in Steamboat Springs, Colorado! A class act through and through! Congratulations and I hope that our paths cross again.
Goddamn, that’s so smooth. Just incredible.
I love how simply straight up these tricks are. I remember watching the poker chip trick and thinking...this guy is amazing.
Clean and elegant. I much prefer this style of magic instead of the fast talking con man style many magicians use. Bravo!!
The best billet switch I've ever seen. It's so clean I got lost in the routine and after watching in several times I can't point to any tells in the moves. 10/10
Yeah, I feel like I'm watching 3 card monty. I wasn't even positive what I was seeing until the hiccup.
That is such an elegant and smoothly performed illusion. Really beautiful.
Your one of the most real Magicians iv ever seen man your so down to earth and straight about what your doing I massively appreciate and love that.
Most clean version of money change i have ever seen.
We definitely need to appreciate how well Penn articulates things. That was a beautiful.
Hi Simon, Greetings from UK...
I loved the poker-chips (Gawd, who didn't?)
I love this routine, for many reasons...
Your absolutely surgical precision is second to-none!
And... Your very crisp, precise language (patter)... More than just a joy to watch... you are a joy to listen-to!
Thank you
So slick and smooth. I loved how minimalist and clean this trick was.
Simple trick yet done beautifully. Excellent performance. His stance & composure say's it all. 2:55 Teller was tearing. Congrats on fooling them twice!
Honestly I'm not sure what I like more: the magic or the patter, as one compliments the other and vice versa. Wonderfully done!
Thats always the best with this show you can really see how much they love what they do and how much they respect other magicians
"There was this one time at magic camp when Penn and Teller showed me the trick in swallowing two sausages at the time ..."
Beautiful presentation. Well done on a superb performance.
No unnecessary movements and so skilled that even though they know how the trick is done, they still fooled.
sooooooo clean... soooo perfect. how he hid the other bills from behind while showing everysides of the bill is outstanding 👍👍👍
The strength and talent of Penn and Teller is such that there's awe and respect from them when they're fooled
I was looking to see if I could spot anything because the camera is closer in compared to what they see, sometimes I notice palms and places where the switch did happen, not how but when, but this was so amazing! No gimmicks, just perfection.
Utterly fooled by the trick. Thanks for not spoiling it in the title!
That is perhaps the most efficiently elegant illusion I’ve even seen.
This is what I watch FU for. Something so simple that I cannot even begin to start to figure it out. Stunning in every way.
Amazing job - well done Simon!!!
I love it, simple presentation, but that makes it even more impressive, thank you
Such a great trick! Much deserved
"YOU WON'T BELIEVE this clickbait title"
I love, love, love this.
Revealed: the ring on his left pinky or a gimmicky note with a button which changes the note
The audience set up is cool.
You can’t put a price on something this good! Amazing!
Good Sir, I watch and follow a lot of magic tricks, I've seen most if not every Fool Us episode, that being said in general I know how you did this but I have no idea how you did this, if that makes sense. This is one of the cleanest tricks I've ever seen and it's absolute perfection. So simply and so amazing, thank you.
Just listened to his recent interview on the Tim Ferriss Show. Such a cool, down to earth, open guy.
Such an elegant presentation.
The fact that he dedicated a significant portion of his opening video to Penn & Teller admitting fault while praising them…. Respect
Plain and simple, that was just beautifully executed. Well done
Fantastic, Beautiful Presentation. Great Job Sir.
Enjoyable to watch. "Perfection is achieved not when there is nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to take away."
That was incredible and utterly masterful.
Couldn't agree more with the message. The best tricks, in my opinion, are where we know exactly what has to happen. BUT, either we totally missed it through clever misdirection, or it was so incredibly well executed that even though we know it's possible, it seems impossible.
To slow the video down to 0.25x, to go to the timestamps people point out, and to see the motions doesn't take away from the trick for me. Instead, I am left with my jaw on the floor as I realize just how clever your hands and mind have to be to make it work. Taking a simple motion, something we have all seen and done since we were toddlers folding paper, and manipulating that to be so much more complex... all the while keeping it so natural. I don't know how to express how magical that is, it seems so hard to do, and that is only one motion out of dozens or hundreds you needed to do just as well to make this trick work.
Absolutely loved this
Do you like midgets?
Wow. Just wow. As a fellow performer, can I say that THIS is an inspiration!
wow... I have been working on switches. this has been done clean. well done. Kudos!
Doing various versions of it for almost two decades = 👌🏽🙇🏻♂️🤜🏼💟🤛🏼
Even with TH-cam allowing me to zoom in and slow this down to 0.25x speed, the trick is flawless.
Nice to see he kept his "pink and naked" style when naming the video.
You are my favorite ur simplicity is so flawless and perfectly executed 💵💶
How does this not have more views??
As an Aussie.....well done mate. Beauty.
Really, this performance is such a joy to watch!
Damn that was good. Even knowing that something must be done and even having the close up of the camera … no chance to figure it out or at least discover something weird going on.
This is one of the cleanest acts ever! Even when you know n’ understand the basics of the bill-transformation illusion it’s mindbending.
I understood Penn's code perfectly, because i was also looking for the switches, but i just didn't see any. UNLESS it actually was gimmick bill, i mean 3 gimmick bills?
i know the princible of folding and hiding, but this was just so clean that i didn't notice any switches.
2:54 right hand covers the whole corner that probably says „50” on it - also it’s the only corner that we never get to see
I had to watch this at .25x speed to catch the switches, this is so flawless and smooth. Makes me believe he is a sorcerer… Not to give it away, but let’s just say there are a lot of switching from hand to hand to make it seem like he isn’t holding anything else..
So good Smooth Simon.🙂
Loved this trick so much. Great guy, Great trick. You are the Best !
I don't comment on many FoolUs videos but Simon you have a remarkable modesty about you. Even the way that you didn't try to argue the first time you were on to the beautiful craftsmanship of this performance. Really amazing magic my friend. Thank you for your time at your craft!
That's a good strategy! As said, there are many ways of doing it, but there's no way for them to know which one (especially if you found yet another way of doing it, idk if that's the case but it's possible)
Incredibly impressive slight of hand, i had to go frame by frame to be sure what was happening.
I'm surprised the fumble with the flip at 2:30 got past them, i thought that would have given it away.
Good job. Very well done. May the magic STAY with you! ;)
The smartest, clean and quick trick performed on P&T
Simon (amazing magician) looks even thinner than last time.
I truly hope he's ok.
Both your Fool Us performances are absolute masterclasses in sleight of hand. So amazingly clean, and while it can be seen that you are doing some 'handling', exactly (or even vaguely) what that is is mind-boggling!
Please do another Fool Us!
I he did this trick like that a hundred years ago, they'd definitely burn him : )
You can see how he switches the bills by running the video at 0.25x.
The greatest slieght of hand I've seen or not seen...... haha
Congratulations again,next time it will be a hat-trick
Yes I give this A+++. Once I sorta did want to know how tricks were done like Shin Lim if that's his name. Now I like no knowing. You did do it perfectly and flawless. Both of them.
When I saw the video I thought, it's such a simple trick, I am sure Penn and Teller would have seen this, they must have done it many a times. To see that they don't know how you did it, I am shocked for sure!
All I have to say is this guy has more control over individual fingers than most humans have over their entire bodies.
Is there a third appearence? This guy is awesome!
You're a wizard Simon.
I mean after proving them wrong when they thought he had gimmick poker chips he could have just been using gimmicked bills and knew they wouldn't think that was the case. If that's the case, boss move. If not, insane slight of hand to the point where it looks like actual magic.
at first i was like, i've seen this trick before...and then i was like, ok yeah no.
I love the perfection of your patter, word for word for word, with the carefully crafted subtleties added over the past decade at least that I've known this routine, & to think there was another decade before that! Madd respect, dude! Plus, no Asians! =P
He do it simply no need a lot of talking he’s not like other magician, I like his style very simple direct to the point.
All tricks should be like this one. Simple but effective, no shannenigans.
Fantastic work Simon
Simon is the absolute master!!!
Awesome trick. I see you refer to the title as click bait but honestly thank you for not spoiling the ending everyone who uploads these spoils it with X fooled Penn and Teller with Y and it kind of ruins the point but maybe that's just me. Either way great video can't wait for you to fool em a third time.
That was so clean!
Hw good is your magic that even the greatest magician Penn and Teller take days to know they are being fooled??? 😂😂😂 Love it.
