Hello it's Emma here! This is my original performance from my time on Fool Us. Thank you all for the support it means a lot. Just the likes and shares are really helpful so keep it up!
Love you! Very nice Performance, and safly you did not fool them, but you fooled me :-) ! Next time you get them! Best of luck!
I was so rooting for you. That was an amazing magic trick and you had me fooled. There is no doubt in my mind that you will go far in life with your performances. Do not let gender be an issue at all. You have a great stage presence.
Hi Emma, fool us is mine and my wifes favorite show on Friday nights. I have to work every other Friday so we have the series recording on dvr. We saw your original performance a few weeks back and loved it. We feel you're going to go far. Keep it up sweetie and we hope to see you again in the near future.😊
Great job Emma! If I was psychic I would say I see great things in your future.
I look forward to seeing repeat appearances to try to get the trophy again =)
I love that P and T allows the magicians to showcase their attempts to fool Penn and Teller on their own youtube channels.
Daaang, Penn prompting the audience to give another round of applause is something I've never seen him do :O He was genuinely impressed and wanted people to recognize you :)
Another performance that clearly demonstrates that winning the trophy is not the main goal of this show. The true purpose is to witness amazing magicians perform even more amazing magic acts. Your stage presence is incredible; you're confident, professional, and it is clear that you love being there and performing magic tricks. You even handled Penn professionally. You didn't let him look around and carelessly touch things at the end. No, you placed the piece of paper in his hand and essentially said, 'Here you go, you can examine this as much as you want. Now, go back to your chair and sit down.' Great job!
Thank you 🙏🙏
The real magic is solving the face of the cube while simultaneously talking to Penn, without looking like you're solving the face of a cube. Emma, you're obviously a very experienced cuber. Most cubers I talk to can't maintain a conversation while solving a face.
"She hates Penns!" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
But she love that pen as in Penn
I’m slightly dyslexic and that exclamation point really threw me off on your comment
I always love the Magician Talk they use at the end to let the person know they know. It’s a cool way to keep and reveal the secret at the same time.
What was the magician talk?
@@vegasidol He kept saying 'heart' to let her know he knew how she activated the invisible ink.
At least that's what I understood
@@jessicalawson1417 There is a trick called "cardiographic" by Martin Lewis which is probably a very close relative to this trick, and the cube part of the trick is simply pure cubing skill
I'm no magician but I am a cuber, and the casual way you used actual cubing skills while chatting with Penn was very impressive!
if you are a cuber you may have realized the color scheme on that cube was not correct... there is something odd about that cube.
@@manusoftar you are dead wrong. the main part of the trick is that she was able to solve the side a normal cube half way while looking at it, and then the rest while looking away and talking to Penn
@@manusoftar It was non-standard colours, but I'm 99% sure that I could hand her any one of my 3x3 cubes, and she could do the trick just as well.
@@Wright1331 I know, I was just saying it looked odd to see that color pattern...
The trick is no mistery, there are a couple of options for some parts (like, how did she managed to know which color did Penn choose, because it was clearly not a force, she could have done that by memory like knowing the original orientantion of the cube and keeping the order on her head as she turned the cube around or even by having some kind of tactile assitance on the cube itself to help her know which face she was touching) but it pretty straight forward.
@@Autoskip yep, it's not a gimmicked cube, it's just odd that she didn't use a regular color scheme for it...
there are many ways in which she may have known which color did Penn choose... she may have memorized the orientation she started from and keep a mind record of how many movements she did on her back until Penn asked her to stop to know exactly on which color she landed, or even have something on the cube, like something she could feel by tact to know which face Penn choose.
The rest is just solving the first face but disregarding the other of the cross and corners so it is not that obvious that she, basically solved that face.
The block part is a commercial thing that has been used for years (Like, the bowling ball from a paper block, and even David Copperfield has a trick where he draws a landscape and then makes the moon rise on the paper and lastly he rips the page and gives it to the spectator).
2:46 "whatever you want it's fine" I love that confidence and honesty. I can see Penn's face going "is she doing this the hard way?"
Dr. Martin Lewis, the cardiologist, would be proud. A captivating performance.
I have a Rubik’s cube tattoo of which the pattern was taken from a cube magic act, so I always love seeing cube magic make it to the big stage! Awesome trick!
That’s so awesome!
She radiates confidence - a star in the making for sure
I completely agree. She's a natural performer/entertainer and I was immediately captivated by her stage presence.
The thing With cube magic is: the trick is solving the cube.
you mean the one side
@@3dmagictricks The yellow face was not even properly solved, but that actually works better in the trick because there's no telling from the four adjacent faces. - It's easier as a cuber to stick all one colour on a face disregarding the adjacent faces (but still takes practice to do it so quickly as part of this act).
I wish I was this confident and smart when I was 18. Well done, I am looking forward to seeing more from you!
I'm impressed, she is reaaaally good at presenting.
how excellent to be so composed on stage at that age
You are a genius four times.
She rotated the six sided cube so that only four sides were available based on how she was holding it. All she had to do was remember the order, and as soon as he picked a color she knew it. The rest was the show. Her “additional scramble” was her solving the yellow side before handing it back.
Still bravo! 👏
But how did the cube end on bottom yellow in penn’s hands?
Before she places the cube on his hand, you can see she does few twists on the cube while talking @@Alex-hb1yf
@@Alex-hb1yf she solved that side and put it face down so he didnt see
@@Alex-hb1yf She placed it in his hands that way when she handed it to him. Also she either was banking on the psychology of people picking bright colors and knowing most people would pick the neon yellow, or she had multiple pens under the table so she had invisible ink for each of them.
@@Alex-hb1yf She already had the image of the cube drawn in the notebook prior to coming on stage with the white spaces of the bottom of the cube cut out. Then, with her thumb, she slowly slid a piece of paper that had been colored yellow up into view through the cut out holes. She had a paper for all 4 possible colors. Notice, she rotates the cube so white is not a possibility, as that would ruin the trick.
Lol I struggling speaking in front of 10 people and this brilliant young lady just looks at home on the stage. Keep it up! You’re gonna be one of the greats one day!
The grandmother comment made me snort laugh. LOL My son is OBSESSED with his Rubik's Cube. He will love this video!
I saw yellow all over the cube the whole time she manipulated it that I never expected a full yellow side as the final reveal. I had to go back and rewatch. The last couple turns of the cube were so effortless that I still didn't catch it on the 2nd time through. Then I watched that part a couple more times. Unbelievable skill!
At first glance, when you started coloring in the book, I thought you were drawing the exact pattern under Penn’s hand, matching at least the visible sides on the book with the cube itself. I’m very impressed!
Ayo congrats! That was amazing. Keep up the great work. For being nervous, as you said you were, it actually didn't come through in the pacing of your dialogue. You seemed calm and in control. Astonishing! Keep slaying and biggest blessings!
I'm so impressed! Just like with the Card Mechanic, how you can do that, it's crazy! And such an entertaining act around it. It was a great performance, and although it didn't fool me, I enjoyed every minute of that performance!
Congratulations on a great trick & performance. I really enjoyed that.
Wow! amazing performance, I'm always fascinated by young magicians performing on an adult stage.
Amazing! I love cube magic and this routine was brilliant
It wasnt. It was even quite obvious while she arranges the cube by herself before giving it to penn.
I get that nobody wants to break her heart but come on. The sooner she knows this trick wouldnt fool a 12 year old the better she will be at progressing towards magic tricks.
@@JoHn-if6wy well she got me lol I forgot she “scrambled” the cube herself a little - she successfully misdirected me! And the paper changing color was cool to me!
Well done performance and what is MUCH better than that is the fact that you are very likeable as a person so people will enjoy watching you. Thank you for a fun watch. 😄
Just amazing! Been a fan for a long time! Feels great to see you on the big stage!
Not only is this a very entertains, engaging and clever trick, but how she hid how she did it from all but the most trained eye is magic in itself. I watched it back and I think I’ve worked it out, but that only makes it that much more impressive - to call this a mere ‘trick’ does not give true justice to what is required to perform it. I therefore know Penn wasn’t lying when he said he and Teller could never learn it. Knowing how it’s done is one thing, but being able to actually do it is a whole other story. Amazing - wishing this clever lady every success.
Been doing magic for long long time now
This was incredibly impressive
You have a great future ahead with that kind of skill
Amazing! 👍😎
I kept along with the trick, but the insane smoothness and confidence is astounding. Young lady you have an incredible career in magic ahead of you and dont let anyone tell you otherwise... 10/10 performance!
Emma, great trick, fine performance! Looking forward to seeing you on stage in the future!
Good job Emma. I enjoy watching you .
God bless
So amazing, love it, bravo Emma!
Great performance, thank you!
Just wow, Emma! At 18, I was an idiot. You have poise, charm and intelligence. You definitely fooled me! I think you'll go far.
Even though I think I know how it was done, it still feels like real magic whenever anyone can handle a Rubik's Cube like that.
Great job! You have a bright future ahead of you. The most impressive parts actually weren’t cubing or magic, it’s your ability to articulate and present your show in front of the big audience. And most importantly, you have a great attitude. I’m sure you’re do great things in the future. Keep it up!
(Btw, I’m a cuber and was a magician too back in the day, and your trick deeply resonates with me.)
I loved everything about your presentation!! You are awesome!!
That was great. Keep going your Awesome!
I hope to see your magic act in Vegas and on tv again. You're a totally great magician. 👏 👏 👏
Bravo Emma! I started doing magic as a teenager and could never have done that performance, my stage fright was really bad. I ended up becoming a clown and doing comedy magic because the makeup and costuming made it easier for me to perform in front of people.
Emma's delivery is polished like bright chrome! ❤
That trick was great! What a wonderful experience for you, keep it up!
This is not magic in its typical form. This is 100% skill that most people do not have and will never have and some easy and basic magic routine. Still impressive and certainly worth respect. The act was smooth and the audience loved it. Flawless performance.
I think all magic is skill. It's not like other magicians are using real magic ;)
@@Dayvit78 Some skills require specific mental powers that cannot be learned. It needs to be a born genius to be able to master them. I do not claim that other magicians use real magic, as there is no such thing as real magic. While I fully understand the steps, I would be incapable of performing them nowhere close to that speed and confidence as I saw in the video (and most likely I would make a mistake somewhere). Many "magic moves" do not require special skills, just practice. But this is not just practice, it is about being a genius. Comparable to top musicians who master their instrument in a way that the vast majority of fairly good players never achieve, even if they practice for decades. Some people have a gift to play the violin like nobody else, some people have other gifts. Some of us, like me, have none. 🙂 But that does not mean we cannot enjoy and appreciate performances by those who have them.
I don't think it's 100% skill, the trick with the invisible ink is a magic trick. I suspect the secret is when penn says blown away
@@erikziak1249not trying to discredit i myself think the trick was nice. but there ins't anything difficult in this trick. the most complicated part is 3:00 where you need to solve one face of the cube
It’s cool because we know how it’s done, but can’t replicate it, since we can’t “solve” the cube for the presentation.
Bravo Emma!
It was great meeting you in Vegas 🙌
You have such phenomenal stage presence! Great trick, and a nice departure from other cube magic!
Very well done. And great presentation.
Fun and entertaining routine! Keep up the good work! ❤
Hey, great job! Keep having imaginative fun! Keep creating.
Hi Emma! I hope you continue your journey, you will be successful at everything you do! Your parents must be proud and I will share your performance with my 3 daughters, thank you!
This is the type of trick that you could explain what you're doing as you're doing it, and it would still be impressive.
Really great act. You do see cube magic here and there; but this is really well done. Great job, Emma!
Fantastic performance and great trick. You fooled me and I hope to see more tricks in the future!!
Great work, keep it up!!
Great job, :)
I am very impressed by your skills. Keep bringing joy to people by showing them your magic!
Keep it up! I can’t wait to see how famous you get! You can also market and seek the tricks you devise. Good luck to you!
That was an amazing trick! Amazing job! 😁
Great show! I’m no magician, so you definitely fooled me! Very good show! Very entertaining! You will do great things!
Great performance! Congrats 🎉
I never thought any tricks with the cube as being "magic".. I was In high School when it became the big thing.
It didn't take us long to figure out everything about the cube.. and most likely not these two guys.
It was fun watching your performance.. you definitely have a wonderful stage presence.
That’s a cool trick! Don’t feel bad for not fooling them, some of the greatest magicians I’ve seen didn’t fool them. These guys have been around this stuff for two times longer than you’ve been alive. Great job
She didn't fool them because it was incredibly obvious what she did.
There wasn’t anything remotely good about this. She put it behind her back and rotated it the same way, knowing between the 4 colors by turn. Then she just cubed. This is maybe the dumbest “trick” I have ever seen
@@timcarter817 Completely agree. The only thing she was good at was casually putting the yellow on the bottom while talking to Penn.
@@ricardovela2455 How did she make the yellow appear at 4:45?
@@TommonSensePro She already had the image of the cube drawn in the notebook prior to coming on stage with the white spaces of the bottom of the cube cut out. Then, with her thumb, she slowly slid a piece of paper that had been colored yellow up into view through the cut out holes. She had a paper for all 4 possible colors. Notice, she rotates the cube so white is not a possibility, as that would ruin the trick.
Great, original trick, I loved it!
Such a great magician, I wish her the best at NYU.... John from New Jersey #1 Fan
Brilliant performance 🔥🔥
I know exactly how the whole trick works, but I'm all the more fascinated. Great job. I wish you every success in your future magic career :)
Great performance and trick. So much fun.
You did not fool us, but we will make you feel great. I love how he makes magicians feel appreciated.
I love the simple fact how Magicians have like this language that only they understand where they talk in code to let them know you didn't fools us or that they did get fooled and how Penn always whispers in there ear to say was it down this way and that determines they got fooled just pure genius
I did figure it out, but MAN I wanted her to win! The world needs more bright young magicians adding in new tricks! Cant wait to see you in the future!
You figured it out? How? What did she do, use disappearing /reappearing ink? And how did she know what color he picked?
Beautiful magic trick, Brava!
never change. always be humble as you are. don't throw your innocence for the evil world
she had me fooled , stellar performance !!
I have a pretty good idea of how you did this, and I'm more impressed because of it. Keeping track of the colors and then casually solving the cube while chatting up a giant of a man (literally and figuratively) took nerves of steel. I don't know how the color reveal works, but I've seen enough of those to know that it's some kind of well-known trick.
martin lewis's cardiographic is the trick used. and its wonderfully executed too.
@@rick5078 I suspected that must be the case when Penn mentioned Martin Lewis. I'm not a student of magic, but I've seen the show enough to work out how Penn encodes things.
I thought one of my markers might be like writing in invisible ink on a delay, and then I just thought she must have huge sack to get the timing right. The idea that it was regular paper they could examine and not an insert being pushed up by a finger definitely surprised me.
Dig her confidence.
@@seancrandall1291 I thought the exact same, her demeanor seemed to change a tiny bit right at that moment as well.
Great performance!
I like how you merged Cardiograph and Cube magic
Amazing performance, original, funny and very well done. Good luck next time
that was awesome!!!
Amazing performance
keep up the great work, you are on the road to stardom.
I love it. Very good performance you are very ahead. ❤❤
Very impressive - I think I've got everything you did EXCEPT for the cube solve. And the way you perform is great, you have a bright future for sure!!!
I believe that that's the part Penn was talking about when he said that she 'just did it,' and that if he, and Teller practiced 'for the rest of our lives,' they'd never be able to do it. I don't think that part WAS a trick, or that the trick was making it look like one. She's just that good with a Rubik's Cube.
That was awesome to watch
Well done, Emma! Cheers from Germany! :)
Just saw your first video from 9 years ago
You definitely come a long way congratulations 🎉
Maybe in 3 years AGT why not you can do it 👍✌️
Great job young lady!! 😃
That was actually awesome, I always find the Rubik’s cube ones interesting because of how “free” the choice is.
The color pick was a bit of a let down though. Even handling the cube behind her back, she knew exactly which color was picked, so the rest was just gimmicks and knowing how to solve a rubiks. Delivery was aweome though.
she solved it and gave it back to him yellow all down, while only turning it one direction behind her back.. Nice confidence and congrats on trending.
Absolutely Mind Blowing, may you be prosperous in all your days ahead and may your life be full of Magic and Joy💥🙀🥰😍👍✌️🤟💯‼️
Young lady.. you will look back when youre an old lady doing magic and laugh at yourself..
Fantastic performance 👏
Haha I already do that and it’s only been a year!
@@emmaolsonmagiccc im very happy to hear you're having personal growth as well.. much respect
@@emmaolsonmagiccc but I also wasnt joking.. and i know my name is jester so that can be confusing.. so laughing may have not been the correct response..
I also dabble in the mystical arts.. pick a number one through ten.. and also you can let me know what it is
"Are you familiar with the colours?" "yes", he says, looking at a cube with nonstandard colour layout..
I hope she comes back again. Amazing performance and flip I couldn’t do that now (nearly 48) never mind at 18
Just taking a wild guess. She completed the first layer when chatting with Penn. The pages have preset drawings for each colors. One of the pens was actually just liquid which uncovered the color she wanted to show.
You have a great future. Keep up the good work.
Natural stage presence at a very early age 👌
Great performance, Emma! You fooled me, but then that might not be saying much because I am not a magician. Keep up the good work!
Even if they know how it's done, it's still super impressive you did it!
Amazing! I'm awaiting the inevitable reddit dissection of this incredible performance
Great trick Emma!
Wonderful routine and done with such poise. You did really well and have great things ahead of you.
