    • @YourXavier
      @YourXavier 8 років тому +33

      I think it's a prop that has two configurations; one as a circle, another as a square. Notice how the the flat of the band changes orientation from one configuration to another. By twisting the band, it switches into the square configuration, like when rolling a rubber band.

  • @Bbfishman
    @Bbfishman 9 років тому +558

    well im writing this as im watching, and at 1:50 when he "borrows" the $1 bill from the audience member he swaps the bills and he just hands the guy back his own dollar bill that he was originally trying to volunteer for the trick. So the magician pulled out his dollar and then pretended to get a totally random bill, but in the end he used his own bill and gave the audience member his own money right back to him. idk if that necessarily does much for the trick since i only just started watching, but im assuming thats an important part of the trick. You can see Teller leaning out of his chair trying to see the move, since the magician does a good job of blocking their view of his swap

    It's my opinion that the best magic tricks are those that make people go "Woooah" in some form or other.
    He got that reaction. And I enjoyed the trick. Of course it's impossible to make "whole" paper pass through itself to form a perfect ring, but like P&T said: He did it so well, with so much skill, that you can *watch* him do it and still fail to see it.
    This is a win in my book.

  • @toprekt7681
    @toprekt7681 8 років тому +47

    My theory: He made a small tear in it at 4:17. I think you can actually hear the rip a bit at 4:18. Then at 4:23 when the camera zooms in, you can see he starts to hold the bill very carefully as if its torn, not to reveal the illusion. Then he slips the bill inside the other carefully at 4:24. And here's where the madness comes in. I think that he has some sort of really fast drying, really clear glue/or tape stuck on his fingers and he is pressing it on the bill to put it back together. But it's just a theory. A magic theory.

    so basically, the only reason they didn't get fooled is because he showed them at other shows... this is why a magician never reveals his secrets. they basically said he did the trick very well, and the only reason they weren't fooled is because he already showed them the trick.

      @ericforsyth 8 років тому +19

      Yeah. He said he's held on to that trick in particular for himself, but sadly that wasn't enough when it uses a lot of the same moves as his others, and he's shared those with Penn & Teller, and others. I'm sure he's happy with the exposure the show gives him.

    @DancinJim 8 років тому +23

    Not really sure why so many people are fixated on him not swapping the bills. That's just one element of the trick. Even with his own note, he still has to do something with 'seams' as Penn and Teller point out, right in front of their eyes, where they are unable to see him do it or feel the seams on the note afterwards.

Now, they could say that for each person that goes up there "Ah yes we know how you did it" but the talk they have with the guests is for them to confirm they know how the trick was done.

  • @theo2351
    @theo2351 8 років тому +7

    He makes a tear in one of the squares and covers it up with his hand the first time, as you can see him holding it very carefully around 4:24. At 4:44, you can see that he is still covering up the same place the tear was made (bottom left of the top "square"). The second time he links them, he uses some kind of glue or sealant that takes a while to dry. This is why he holds on the bills very tightly while stalling for time by asking Teller to accept responsibility, which takes around 30 seconds. By the time he finally hands Teller the bill, it's already been glued/sealed back together, so the seam is invisible.

      @kalloused 8 років тому +13

      No that's not how it works. You notice Penn says "We don't have the hands and we don't have the FINGERNAILS" to create a paper version of the linking rings. It's the same bill, he just took one of the and cut a special seam with his finger nail that overlays and locks itself into place. The type of paper dollar bills use is woven so when it is cut thinly and at a jagged angle it can be "relock" at a seam so that you can pull on it with minor to moderate force that if it were to come apart you would think you had torn it. Brilliant and original.

  • @mitchio83
    @mitchio83 9 років тому +43

    The bill swap in the audience was switched in his hands and he gives the man back his same dollar. The bill that teller rips is a normal bill. The bill that the magician rips is a rigged bill. The bill has a precise cut in a spot that would end up being the corner of his final ripped bill, he hides that cut corner with his fingers the whole time. When he connects the 2 bills he simply slides the other bill through the cut in the corner. The "welding" of the rigged bill is done in his hands after the final interlocking. I'm not exactly sure how that was done but maybe some type of glue.

    I think you have to have a certain amount of charisma to gain the audiences respect as a magician and you did. And as for the trick, fantastic Blake. You deserved to go to Vegas...sorry you didn't fool them man.

  • @tnmygrwl
    @tnmygrwl 8 років тому

    I'm not a budding magician or anything but from what I have observed watching this video multiple times which can slightly explain how he might've done it is:
    1. Blake never exchanges the bill with Del Marlow (Yeah that's his real name, cool right?) which is pretty easy to spot.
    2. At 5:20 or so Blake starts his little misdirection talking about federal laws and shit, that's when you start observing his hands and Teller's eyes, at precisely 5:39, Blake manages to tear one ring, slide the other and glue it (or whatever). While Penn's busy speaking for Teller, Teller spots the trick ignoring the misdirection and tells Penn right away and that's when Blake knows he's busted but he still puts up a great show for the rest of us. Great Job Blake, you're truly inspiring.

    He should've gotten that trophy! Not seeing the seam bc of his skill is the same as not seeing the sleight of hand they know is occurring in other tricks, and they've given trophies for that!
    Also, this guy is SUPER cute lol

    • @ThaSPAWN
      @ThaSPAWN Рік тому

      Yes! Watching at least a hundred of foolers in past few days (rabbit hole, don't ask), and seeing a handful of cheap tricks that accidentally fooled them, this young man deserves the trophy more.

  • @kyleeaton2717
    @kyleeaton2717 8 років тому +4

    What happens... well putting it shortly, It's a rigged marker. The marker has a certain glue, the seam that was cut was in the middle of one of the signatures. He then spreads the thin layer of glue from the signature over the rest of the seam which takes place at 5:34 when Teller nods his head and then looks at Penn with that look. That look signals Penn and let's him know that Teller has figured it out.

      +Keenan Sears I just went back and watched, and I noticed that Blake gives the guy the same dollar bill back to him. Blake puts the smooth bill on top of the wrinkled one then pulls the smooth one away in his left hand, folds the wrinkled up and hands it back to the dude.

    • @Oogtug
      @Oogtug 8 років тому

      +MattMexor Penn implies and it could be done that he is simply a small seem in the bill he is holding during the trick. Some sort of adhesive is then used to mend that 'seam' and make it appear whole. The wizardry is in how effectively the guy does it. What makes the bill special is simply the way he manipulates it.

    • @Oogtug
      @Oogtug 8 років тому

      My only issue with that claim is objectively: we have no reason to necessarily assume the bill was special. P&T more than likely would be able to tell and would have called that out. All of this is basically going on the premise of: I presume he used a modified bill, therefore I will contort the evidence to fit my predetermined hypothesis. No big deal, it's just really we can't say. It's an assumption that it is.

    FYI, it is not illegal to destroy money. It IS illegal to alter money with the intention of passing it off t a different value, like trying to alter a $5 bill to pass as a $50. If destroying money were illegal, how would they have those penny press machines practically everywhere?
