I love how respectful and honoring Penn and Teller are to their contestants, even those that don’t fool them. Compare and contrast to other shows that judge performers. We need more of this in the world. Of course, the show is also just fascinating and entertaining without this, but that respect and kindness really elevates the whole thing to me.
So much agreed. This is why I love watching this show. Even the "losers" are fantastic and I love watching them just as much as the winners, if not more. Everything is designed around loving the art of magic and they aren't going to ruin that by dog piling.
@@Katosepe I love how the whole premise for the show, and really Penn and Teller's entire career is that magic is just a trick, but it takes an immense amount of skill and practice to pull off. It's a stark contrast from nearly every magician that came before them.
how can they be disrespectful to someone with such impression
yea... and they dont reveal the trick. t
Amen dude
Imagine:
“Did you fool us?”
“I did not...”
“But Alison did.”
That would the greatest ending to an act in P&T Fool Us show.

I was waiting for that answer,it would have been epic
this would have been totally amazing 😱
I was waiting for it
"I'll be the silent one" made me audibly laugh.
she always bring the funniest joke lol
The irony in your comment lol
Thats the first funny thing ive ever heard her say
I like how charismatic she is. And I think penn prefers her to Ross as he would be a bit obtrusive.
Haha. Your comment made me. Thanks
the network needs to play a practical joke on them where they get called up on stage and theyre so engaged with whats in front of them they dont realise the audience has disappeared
That would be soooo good.
Broody Pie GOLD!
Thanos would standby to make the audience disappear on cue.
Brilliant
Ya and they can play the music really loudly so Pen and Teller cant hear the audience's feet shuffling around.
Honestly, I think what spoiled it for him was the very end. Revealing the 3s _proved_ he was very much in control of the deck. If he didn't show them, P&T might not have had enough information to figure out the end. I think showing the other instruction cards also may have hinted as to what was coming.
The ending is great for the audience, but it told P&T too much.
Still, having so much control on the deck when you are not touching the deck at all is very impressive. The problem is that card tricks like this are almost always forced draw or controlled shuffle. If there is no controlled shuffle, it must be a forced draw.
No..I mean it's not about the information,it's about the knowledge of magic penn and teller have which make no sense for me so if they know every trick how can someone fool them ? and i suppose..on the other side they were fooled by apple watch just because they don't know much about technology..I don't know the parameters of this show
he still would have shown is in control of the deck because : 1st : the deck was not shuffled beforehand, therefore showing there is a stack.
2. Even with instructions, he still needs to say to Allison what to do.
@@arlimando9745 well for one thing they don't know *every* trick, that's impossible.
But unlike audiences, when a trick fools a magician it's not typically because they don't know how it was possible, but rather they know *several* ways it's possible but the trick was so smooth and well performed that they can't figure out which of those possibilities it is.
It was clear the whole time the instruction cards were used to control the deck.
The problem with the trick is that there are waayyyy too many bells and whistles. Every single aspect of the trick points back to a force of some type. If he had ended with just the 3, and that was it, Penn and Teller would have had to consider different solutions. However, when he shows that he knew that the card was a 3, then it defacto shows them where the trick actually takes place.
When he said to deal deliberately slowly, that told it to me.
Confused Canuck Exactly my thoughts
Yep, slowly going through the batch of 3 of Spades in the deck.
At 3.30 he is palming the 3 of spade
Yeah, and if he'd got to the next instruction card before Penn called it he'd know it hadn't worked, and be able to try a different force.
The thing that makes this trick so fantastic isn’t the card selection, it’s how he kept everything in order even through his riffle shuffle. He did it right in front of them. THAT’S the real brilliance of the trick to me.
That's what I thought. Yeah, they caught that the card selection was rigged, but that doesn't explain the trick. That's no better than saying "you used sleight of hand" or something. They ought to at least be able to say they saw the move when it happened for it to count as a bust.
@@dm0065 You can be sure, they know those moves.
@@dm0065 they kinda know the trick coz there are duplicate 3's which is what penn was sayin
far out, did anyone else notice how smooth and in sync them standing up was. 1:44
And sitting down... RObOtS
Yeah
I’m fucking dying of laughter that’s fucking hilarious that robot.. Illuminati conspiracy joke is hilarious
Well, they've been partners in magic for over 40 years. It's like being able to anticipate what a close friend or loved one is thinking.
@@Weird_Alchemist42 I agree with you, but not only that, they're both independently talented performers, each with his own deep and abiding history of skills and training. I.e., Penn is a graduate of Ringling Brothers, whereas Teller is an academic scholar in various fields of magic and illusion-based stagemanship. (I find myself vaguely wanting to say that Teller has a PhD somewhere, but I'm not 100% certain of that fact, and I'm too lazy to google, so there it is.)
Absolute fair play to you sir for posting this even if you didn't fool Penn and Teller. This was a fantastic routine. I'm going to assume that despite your obvious talent you are also an extremely humble guy in real life, and I love it when those kinds of magicians go far in life. At least that's the model I set for myself. As such, may you have as long of a career as you desire. Thank you for your magic.
You'd have to be an idiot not to use this video on your channel after what Penn said about your trick (***** good).
I just love this show. No bullshit, no buzzers, no auditions and most especially, Penn and Teller are so humble to everyone. And above all, the host lady is so awesome.
Yep, just like criss angel!
In fact, I think it's fair to say that Penn & Teller just stole everything from criss angel, isn't it?
@@Reth_Hard I sincerely hope this is a joke as they've been doing magic since before Angel was born. Ugh.
What I love about great appearances on Penn & Teller is that a "loss" is still an amazing win! Doesn't matter if they were fooled or not... a great performer like this has still amazed the audience.
The thing I realize more and more about watchiing Fool Us is that we (normal folk) get to meet and watch really dedicated and extremely talented human beings performing their greatest ideas at their very best. The show literally is pushing the boundaries of magic innovation and talent for the individual magician and for the community. I dunno if that is a good thing or bad but it sure is a lot of fun! :)
i knew Penn would scream, "STOP!" and i still laughed.
Imagine what would've happened if Alyson dealt the cards onto the table and then penn called out stop but then she did not hear him call out stop to her and kept on going all the way through the deck
How was the card forced?
@@seedsoflove7684 the first 7-10 cards are all 3. she was told to deal the cards very slowly. then Penn shouted, assumingly he was already kinda part of the trick because if she kept dealing more cards the whole trick would be ruined.
At 6:40 he did some fake shuffle and even doublechecked that no more 3 are visible, you can clearly see a bunch of cards not visible, they are all the 3 that were dealt and skipped in the beginning.
It's so cute how Alyson is part of the 'gang' and she is having a hard time to even shuffle cards!!! Adorable! :P
Great performance, love the energy! I always loved effects where you empower the spectator.
Thanks! Keeping the energy up during a trick with so much procedure was definitely the challenge. I think it worked out well :)
It did indeed. :)
Caleb Wiles you were amazing, amusing and gentle. it was great to watch you.
obviously fake, you said she doesn't practice magic and she has been a witch since the mid-late 90s.
:p
Yeah, but this is illusions. She does the real thing.
Shut up and just enjoyed it
well done
Marimar it's a joke. here's an Internet chill pill:
O
Whoosh
His deck adds a whole new meaning to the phrase "three's company"
That's nice way to code it 😀
broke my heart to hear it was a force
force? i think the entire deck was the 3 of spades
Not entirely 3 of spades but more probably the first 10 cards or so (from the top to the next instruction card I would say). The jokers removal at the beginning is surely a misdirection to make us assume of the validity of the deck but we can see that some cards at the top are not visible. Hence the refusal of showing the cards at the end and the slow pace for the card picking.
Jason Rose the selected card was right behind his instruction card number 1
Not the *top* 10 cards, as there's a period where he's "killing time" whilst Alyson deals some cards. I'm guessing he plans on that taking a minimum number of cards, but not more than a few more, and then plans that Penn (in this case) will say 'stop' before too many more are dealt. So a set of cards somewhere near the top of the deck that are all the 3 of diamonds indeed.
I'm absolutely no magician, but I'd guess there's a chance that after showing the cards face up he has chance to manipulate if needs be. There were *some* cards on what is meant to be the top of the deck not spread out, but it didn't look like enough 02:20. Counting quickly, skipping the jokers, there's more than 52 cards there.
Ath Athanasius àà
Great trick! I saw the article the FC magazine just had on you and knew I had to watch! I graduated Franklin in '13, so we never overlapped, but I remember going through a magic stint probably about the time you were graduating and would've loved to have been on this show someday. Glad you got the chance to perform and get such awesome compliments from P&T, and good luck in your future endeavors!
I've never really thought Alison was cute before... but the way she said "what?" at the beginning... She got me. (1:36)
A year later that pivotal moment still didn’t lose any of its significance.
Maybe he actually would have fooled them if he hadn't proved that the 3 of spades was preselected.
The folly of cornering yourself to the only solution. While the effect is impressive to moguls, the wizards will take that as an obvious hint.
Once a trick is too perfect, it can only be done the way it's done.
I had the same rationale, even when I am just an enthusiast about this stuff...I saw him reveal those 3's and immediately though "well...so that 3 was a force!" Granted, I don't know HOW it was forced, but it does kind of reveal the force...
@M S what do you mean?
I can just imagine the sheer delight and subsequent terror of an illusionist having someone legitimately pull out the 3 of Spades on Fool Us. ua-cam.com/video/HiQP5htOcPc/v-deo.html Fooling them on a technicality becomes a real possibility.
Fooled or not, I've watched a ton of these and this was one of the best card tricks so far. Very cool.
After watching Penn and Teller do so many card tricks I have been primed to believe anytime that a selection is a value of 3 it's guaranteed to be a force.
He didn’t earn a trophy but he earned their respect
They were just being nice. Their question was loaded. They just pointed out how it was a badly constructed trick by literally shoveling in his face the fact that he had a bunch of same cards on top his deck and his force sucked. Not only because of the nature of its selection, but the fact that rest of the trick screamed that fact obnoxiously.
3:20 I cracked up to Allisons reaction 😂
What a clever trick! I love this routine, and the way it's executed with such confidence, yet it could go wrong in a certain number of ways. Beautiful!
You might not have fooled Penn and Teller but you won our hearts.
Caleb Wiles I love that you could have probably done it yourself without having to mark the instruction cards, but you did it to make it more fun for everyone involved.
CloudSteele
Loved the whole routine and presentation.
Totally worth it to hug Allyson! Omg dude, great show and what a reward.
I love how Penn+Teller loved this guy's act so much they were actually rooting that they were wrong that he had fooled them but it broke their heart that he hadn't. 100% believe believe it when Penn said it broke his heart that he figured it out LOL all in all I didn't figure it out and that's for me the most important thing it was a very very entertaining and mystifying trick ultimately.
I love the ending very very much, great effect!!!
Allison is the reason I watch this show
Did you know that she was the band girl on American Pie 😂
I love that, to a point, this show runs on the honor system.
It actually doesn't. The performers have to reveal the method of the trick to the producers, and there are judges that help determine if Penn and Teller have correctly deduced the method.
Love the idea of having someone else perform it. Really good - and must have felt really good getting that reaction from them/Penn :)
5:45 - I love Tellers expressions when he starts to get excited about the trick
WHAAAATTTT??????!!!!! That was awsome! the best part of this whole show is the; i don't know if it's the right word, but the honesty. even though p&t are not fooled, the performers are very professional... Good job and keep on freaking everyone out...i know I was
They have to tell how the trick is done before they get up there, obviously not to Penn&Teller, but they can't lie about it.
They audition with a series of tricks and the producers will pick the performers and tricks they want. I remember one of them on his own UA-cam channel said the producers told him to do a trick of his that was almost 20 years old and surely wouldn't fool P&T, but that's the one they wanted. That said, I'm not sure the performers are always honest. For the sake of avoiding controversy and awkward arguments, the producers have sometimes forced Alyson to just say fool or no-fool; likewise I doubt they will interrupt the show and embarrass a performer who says, "no, that's not how I did it," when they could always just quietly take the award away later.
trusso2614
It's awesome if he used a regular set of cards but this deck of cards is specially modified for the trick.
He might have fooled them if that last part with all 3s wasn't there. That made it more obvious that the initial 3 was a force.
the1337fleet sure
Yeah, once you know about forces, it can be pretty easy to get greedy and make them obvious.
@@isetmfriendsofire yup
I see this with a number of performances. I think at one point Penn referred to it as being too perfect. It does make for a dazzle for the audience. But it also points to a specific cheat having happened early on. I see this with some mentalism acts too where being too precise with the answer makes me more suspicious than a a less "perfect" outcome would have.
This is a gorgeous trick and super enjoyable performance. But leaving out the 3s and going straight to the fool us might have made it harder in the fool us game.
Yep. Most magicians who reveal that they "predicted" the card don't know that they're also revealing that it was most likely a force. When he revealed the 3s I could see Penn thinking "So it was a force". That gives them a lead to look into other than fooling them with the other intricate parts of the trick.
Still, I enjoyed this performance. It was well done.
I love all these EPIC magicians
And to think just a four short years ago I interviewed him for a school project. Great job Caleb keep it up.
Alison's expressions are priceless
Did someone make Jonathan Ross disappear?
He was already doing something when they decided to do a new season.
That's the GOOD news!
I hate Alyson. She's an airhead and super awkward. That doesn't work for magic. As a host, you need to be fucking slick, smart, and full of shit (in a good way).
MisterZ3r0 That's what it's all about: she's the opposite of Penn & Teller, so they complete each other.
Also, she's an actress-she's acting.
yeah your mother, hi, jr. ross
Im so stoked. I actually got to meet this dude at my post prom, best thing is, he told me he was thinking about auditioing again. He totally got me with his book trick.
Allison's voice is one of the sweetest I have ever heard !
what a brilliant effect, I fairly new to magic and love tricks like this that use little or no slight of hand although now lining a little slight of hand, hard thing when they say you did not fool us were they only knew one thing .......what a great trick
learning bloody predict text
Thanks, Trevor. Yeah, this one has absolutely no sleight of hand involved. If you're into those sort of effects, I would highly recommend looking into the work of Steve Beam, Ryan Schlutz, and John Bannon.
Yes caleb yes love John bannon his move zero DVD are excellent just got bullet party so trying to learn a bit more slight, loads of big blind media.love Penn and teller but sometimes they play the we know the moves card too easy , sure there was more to the trick than that one point , excellent trick with a kicker ending
Great trick! Great presentation!
Very entertaining.
Love from Australia
Thanks for the compliments. I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Man,I actually think you gave yourslf when you showed it was a force.I really think if there wasnt the other 3s part,and if instead of those on the 3 piles were just the question words,they would be fooled.I mean,they STILL dont Know how you d.d. it,I dont Know,its obviously a VERY complicted mathematical trick (no one can recap all of that in their head on the pot) but everybody can go "if it was a force,there must be more 3s of spades".You gave it yourself
Yea, I think in an instruction card it had the word three underlined also, so you know then it was a forced card.
It's not math. It's a half of a deck with 3 of spades cards with false corners so a tight spread will reveal only the false corner, and the other half of the deck is setup ahead of time and just protected from actually being shuffled.
The clarity of this trick was impressive. I don't even care about the method. Well done.
I don't care how forced Penn might have been in this situation, that was so exceptionally clean that it's impossible to tell. Usually when the performance is lacking, the producers will edit a shot. But at no time here was there an edit away from you where it was intended to conceal sloppy dexterity.
It was clean. It was beautiful. I have a little extra respect and admiration for such a talented Hoosier. Great job, man.
Awesome job Caleb!You fooled the heck out of me.Very interactive and entertaining routine.
I still perform your ReSewindled and is one of the strongest impromptu routines I do.
All the best in your future endeavours. CheersAljaž
Thanks, Aljaz. I love to hear about other magicians performing tricks I've created.
Caleb Wiles y
impromptu routine. Oxymoron if there ever was one.
@@LeslieJayBoschPhoto It's a 4 year old comment, but it's not an oxymoron, in the sense that he means the trick is the "routine" that they go through whenever they feel like, thus is impromptu
You absolutely fooled me though. And its just such a cool idea to let Alyson do the trick :D Good job!
I agree
The trick was great! The performance was great! That was a nice job, sir. Even Penn and Teller were awesome here, because they played very nicely. Was also a good demonstration of their attetion. They probably checked their minds, their knowledge of history of magic and did a very nice backtracking of your trick. That question was spot on!
I watched this over and over again and did not see a deck switch. I love magic and this one fooled me. Great job
One question though: maybe it's just me; but I did not notice the 3 of spades when you first spread the cards out on the table to reveal the Jokers
absolutely killing trick.i was just stunned,because i have also done a trick in which spectator has to do all the stuff but i failed miserably.but its soo nice to see that you have done it so wonderfully.and also very glad to see that although you have a busy routine you still give your precious time to your fans.so good job all-round
Talha Aamir d
Actually he shuffled those cards once. But he said it was "fair" so :D ;)
If I were there and I asked for Alison to do the trick I'd jokingly remind people that her character in Buffy was a very powerful witch, so maybe she got the rub. If the magician eventually fooled Penn and Teller he could say he channeled his/her inner Willow.
Perfect example for me of knowing what you did being completely baffled as to how you did. I love it
Fellow magic and wrestling fan here. Loved it so much
Great trick! i loved it. I wish the instructions for Alyson were more explanatory, if the premise were that she's the magician, it ended up with lots of additional instruction from you. you seem so calm the whole time, and i envy the construction of your trick, and the ease of performance!
That was an incredibly smart, well-executed, and layered trick.
Sometimes I find it more impressive when I see someone intellectually engage P&T like that. This guy was fantastic.
Fantastic job!! Caleb, you’re amazing!!
This is always a good one! I love it so much!
They left the table so impressed, I was sure you fooled them
It was so close to being the 3 of clubs, that would've been so funny
If it was the 3 of clubs, that would have tipped P&T off to a force so hard that the figurative neon lamps would have burned out.
Why would the 3 of clubs have tipped them off?
Reece Brauer three of clubs is penn’s favorite card
Reece Brauer any time they do a force selection they use that card... also look up Jane the virgin card reveal.
Thank you for not saying "would of."
That was great, I love card magic and slight of hand...to me it's real pure magic. You'll getem next time champ.
Really great trick. And how you personalized it for Alyson. I got lost in the enjoyment of it and loved that.
Penn screaming at Allison made me lol
That is because he wanted her to stop at any one card in the deck but imagine what would happen if he screamed at her to stop at any one card from the deck but then she refused to do so and kept on going
I think where he lost this one was when he turned over the instruction cards with the threes on. It screamed out loud that he knew they would have chosen a three.
I would freak out of joy if I were made a magician for a trick like that. You sir, are awesome and blew my mind!
I've got pointed here because i read an article about big bang theory and the reveal of Pennys Surname and UA-cam thought it's a good idea to make recommendations for Penn & Tellers clips. I'm glad it did. I love these clips.
Showed the 3 was super impressed.
Then he turned over all the 3's and thought "oh it was a force to begin with trick sucks" Know when to stop. Sometimes less is better.
The "tell me when to stop" was very clearly a force, but being able to force all those cards in such an order was impressive to watch as it was rather unexpected.
@@qwertyb18 the point they make at looking at the cards is there are many 3s or many "did we fool you" cards under the ones shown. There are many of those and he masters his shuffle to keep it alive. The sides everything is on is different.
Dope trick though. The common man would flip out over this
Pen & Teller do use the 3 of spades a lot in their tricks to signal it was a force. The fact he used it was a nod to that such as saying "I want you to know this is a force, can you figure how I did it?"
@vladk2k no sir you're dumb, Penn and Teller force the 3 of clubs and not the 3 of spades.
He wanted them to say it's a force. But it wasn't, just a pile of 3s of spades (with a corner looking different to not show it when he spreads out at the start).
They knew it was either a force (which would have been "really really good" to do a force while she deals them slowly), or it was a "really really real" free choice, meaning that there would have to be several 3s of spades (with fake corners). In that case they wouldn't be allowed to see the faces of all the cards (because they would discover the fake cards).
Since they called him on seeing the cards, they weren't fooled. It was 50/50, they could have guessed the force.
"Welcome to the Salty Spatoon, how tough are you?"
1:43
If the world had mentors like Penn & Teller, oh how wonderful the world will be...
That was probably the most interesting and entertaining trick I’ve ever seen! Just one more refining and he would of had them fooled no doubt.
good job. I have this deck and it's cool to see someone do a different trick with it then the other one that was already on this show. though I don't know how all of it was done. my deck also only forces the 3 of spades!
Isaac Wilson so how did he “force him to pick the 3 of clubs”
The rest is false shuffles. Still very very good.
Watch the spread, and the show of the chosen card.
Isaac Wilson "I have this deck" wtf are you talking about fool? It's custom made. He created it himself. It's nothing you can just own!
Alice never disappoints me with how she dresses...
I’m a big fan of this series. This is the best I’ve seen😎
As a fellow Hoosier who has met and had conversations with Penn and Teller, I appreciate the hell out of this. They are great guys who really seem to appreciate and care for every fan and person they meet. Damn Good job with the representation, man!
Interestingly, this was a great trick to watch! So it's pretty simple, 2:19 he "shows" the cards but not completely. The cards at the top of the deck only show one corner, a number. At 3:35 he hides the corner with his two fingers. Basically, the top cards are all 3 of spades. They have 3 spades in the middle and a 3 in one corner. Then a random number in the other corner to make them look different at 2:19.
Correct, sir. Hence the "can we see the face cards?" followed by, "you got me."
I’m really sad right now :(
Heavyboxes DIY Master uh
Heavyboxes DIY Master n
but how did that shuffle work
I'm curious to know how the instruction cards stayed in order even after all the shuffling.
I'm absolutely stunned! Good job mate!
This routine is great! You just kept on revealing cool things!
3:21 always gets me
evil but funny
You can see Lily Aldrin taking place exactly at 7:15
hahaha totally!
@MrXelium Yes!
Well played sir! Cheers!
This is by far my favourite one from *Fool Us*
Beautifully done. Though I don't understand, did you somehow force/palm the card? It's just so clean I have no idea.
On the other hand, not being allowed to check the faces... I'm completely clueless.
When he spreads through the cards, he doesn't spread the pile on top (2:18). He does this in order to force one of the multiple 3 of spades at the top of the deck (reason to check the faces).
@@markarmendarez1355 what if Penn had waited until near the end of the deck? How can he be sure he wouldn't?
Penn over here almost always talking in code meanwhile us non magicians are wondering how the hell did that other person do the trick!
I really loved this one it has me scratching my head but I might know how it was pulled off...
Broke my heart too Caleb!! Brilliant trick man! Congrats :)
5:04 you can se the 3
Am i the only one mostly shocked that the instruction cards came up in the correct order?
me too
Oh come on! one of the best magic trick on the show!
Great twist added to a new trick. Loved it
8:04 how high i am watching this
When any time at the end of the trick the magician reveals a 4 of a kind based on your pick. It was a forced card period.
The way he did it, most likely that beginning portion of the deck is all 3 of clubs.
Not true.
_Spellout with a Hitch_ by Dai Vernon, for example; also the variation by Bruce Cervon. Those are just two examples (off the top of my head) where the selected card is is revealed by the 4 of a kind lead up.
I have watched these with fun and amazement...realizing I haven't given ant thumbs up. YES I got lost in the magic so here the thumbs👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Great trick. Once the force is revealed though the rest of the trick becomes pretty straightforward.
I, like others, think you might have fooled them if it wasn’t so perfect but I admire that you went more for entertainment than fooling.
Great stuff
“I think I’ll be the silent one”
Showing the all 3's might add a wow factor to drunk girls in a pub, but for anyone who knows even the slightest bit about card tricks you give away the secret. I would cut that part. Also the cut/shuffle does nothing, obviously. Whenever a cut is used for "shuffle" its obvious whats happening.
Showing the 3s is actually an attempt to throw them off the scent and make it look like a force. He basically did everything he could to make the trick look like a force, which is why Penn calls it "so fucking good." It's a trick that would make lesser magicians think it was one thing instead of another. The 3s make it look like a forced shuffle instead of a trick deck. It's a trick to fool magicians.
That's what Penn meant at the end with the "really good" selection (a force) or a "really real" one (a trick deck). And why he wanted to be wrong. He WANTED it to be a force that they had no clue how to catch, but it was just a fake deck.
What happens with the cut shuffle?
My brain is melted ,, and Penn and Teller still knew 🤦🏼♂️. Great card trick !!
I'm a Solo BG fan. It's awesome seeing you perform magic.
