#PennandTellerFoolUs season 3
It's actually quite simple. They create code for every object in the world and every name in the world, and then memorize all 7 billion people on the planet as well as what their relationships are with eachother. Easy.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I am learning it now. I am on 7 people now. Just a few more to go.
After this performance, Penn and Teller enacted a strict "No Wizards allowed" rule.
Why
Absolutely mystifying you two, nothing short of sheer sorcery. Amazing.
Y’know I binge watch this show all the time and I’ve gotten to the point where if Penn & Teller know, I usually can figure it out 75% of the time with other acts.
Going into this act knowing the show does not allow for audience plants or pre-show work, and he brandishes the glasses case in plain sight, I thought “Penn and Teller themselves said all blindfolds are fake, she can see the glasses case, game over”.
...And then she says “Is your name Vivian” and from then on I sat there like a little kid not understanding absolutely anything that was happening.
That is one of the most amazing acts ever on Fool Us. I have NO CLUE at all how she can access people’s names. I know it’s gotta be a trick of some sort, but it really comes across as actual mind-reading. However it is done, it’s incredible! Excellent performance!
@@hoopyfrood4391 Honestly it makes me think the plant rule was broken in this case or something, I just cannot possibly imagine how they figured out family member names
how do you now its a real blindfold ?
@@justadude4938 people buy tickets in advance, seats are assigned to names, mentalist performers get the list and look up those names on social media.
The more impressive stuff is seeing and making out details on objects like the bill.
@@PierreUsedToPost
Wouldn't scouring people's names on the seating plan etc. fall foul of the "no pre-show work" rule?
"Are the last two digits of your social security number XXXX?"
"ummm... i want to say no but its yes."
I'm an old timer from Finland and was a kid when I first time saw this kind of mind-reading act, over 50 yrs ago. Today, when all kind of electronic gadgets are available, your skills are tremendously great. I've never before seen as fluent performing of this. I believe that laymen don't even have a hunch of the skill you both have. Thanks for this performance. I was just thrilled when watching it.
Thank you for your kind words. We are glad people are enjoying it.
I mean, having seen you and knowing there is nothing supernatural involved, just pure skill, it debunks from the outset every future claim of psychic power. Penn's and Teller's highest prise well deserved. Thank you!
Thank you!
“Knowing there is nothing supernatural involved …”. Tsk tsk tsk such a noob 😜
it does show how a so called psychic could trick you also
@@pinkbeatle2012 how? How is it possible??
This act is crazy good. I go in circles trying to think of how this is done, but can never explain it. These two are so good at what they do it’s unbelievable.
This is one of my favorite acts from Fool Us! Incredible!
Thanks Adrian! You made our day!
when a magic show is performed right, you never want to know the trick, so you can keep enjoying it all the times. this was one of that kind act, with high level of elegance and cuteness. thanks guys.
spidey brought me here. what a fantastic act!
Thank you so much.
Very well done. This takes years on years of practice. Takes two to perfect it...just "concentrate carefully" 😉
Absolutely!
Penn usually gives compliments to the people on the show, but he rarely gushes like this. That must've been an amazing thing to hear.
I mean, with the personal items I can only guess the performers have a code, but I cannot figure out how you can mention those names.
I don't know man. That code would have to be as complex as the friggin English language.
@@JacaboBlanco Good point. They did have 33+ years to develop it though
Y'all did the Nintendo Spring Break performance last week and my wife and I had a blast watching the act! This performance was even more incredible to me since there were so many different objects and details to read! Truly, an incredible amount of work goes into your act and I deeply admire it.
I saw this amazing act at Blackpool this year. I have never been more completely fooled and entertained by an act in my life,
They also did a reading for my father at the end with a photo of my Mum that was absolutely spot on.
Just amazing. Also, they come across a genuine warm loving people.
We had a fabulous time at Blackpool, one of the highlights of this year. Thank you Andy, for sharing your positive thoughts and bringing back good memories! Wishing you and your family the best.
I love how Penn pulls the bill back cause he doesn't want the signal giver to see anymore
I was also reminded of The Clairvoyants act and I loved both performances. I wish I could figure out how you did it!
does anyone remember the trick called THE WIZARD? let me take you back... You ask someone to pick ANY card from a deck and then you get your phone and call the wizard.. the wizard is supposed to know exactly what card your friend selected. After asking if the wizard knows what card they chose, you hand the phone to the person who picked the card and the wizard tells then over the phone EXACTLY the card they selected. Well you have a friend (Th wizard)who is in on it, you instruct them to answer the phone when you call them, as soon as you ask May I speak to the Wizard, they will start saying Hearts, Spades, Diamonds, Clubs.... as soon as they say the suit, you interrupt them by asking if the wizard can guess the persons card. At this point they (friend on the phone) says Ace, two, three, ......until the value of the card is mentioned. Once it is you say Okay hold one here he is,,, you pass the phone over to the person who picked the card and the wizard in a deep voice says the name of the card.
Yes I remember it. I still have that book, Scarne on card tricks, and I remember the wizard.
I used to see fool us everyday on youtube. This act was the best mentaism I've seen ever.
just re-watched you for a third time in a row. you are amazing, and yes tessa is smoking (with respect!). class act, both individually and the actual act! i've been studying magic since i was very young, and i know versions similar to this routine, but you are just so smooth and fast that i'm not convinced that i am anywhere close to knowing, and i felt my smile starting to grow when i heard penn say that he's never seen better. i absolutely agree! man i'd love to see you live some day.
Thanks John, we really appreciate your comments!
0:24 Two mentalists saying: "As soon as we met, we had an instant connection"...
This is one of the most amazing things I've ever seen
Thanks! Amazement is a beautiful thing!
I don't know how that was done and I don't think I want to know. If the audience members weren't plants, I'm completely dumbfounded, if she did not use electronic devices. Thank you for showing something truly excellent. Sadly, I know people who would be so spooked by what you did that they would attribute it to the demonic...sigh.
My girlfriend told me to check you two out. Pretty fantastic! She helped bring you two to Wayne State tonight, and had nothing but good things to say about you two! Keep up the great show!
Thanks Michael! We had a great time at Wayne State tonight.
I don't want to know how it's done, and I don't care how it's done. You guys are one class act! Well done!
Very nice of you .. thanks!
Witchcraft :p
Ohh my goddd!
Your act is so fantastic.
I hope one day I will see you guys perform live.
Thank you Sarin!
@@TheEvasonsI was hoping his name wasn't in the profile. I loved your performance and the sense of awe and wonder that I felt watching it. Thank you for that.
Seeing this again in 2024 I believe this is the most perfect moment in the history of Fool Us. The act is totally baffling, Teller is in awe (and lost for words) Penn’s words of praise and admiration are exceptional, and the lovely Alyson thoughtfully adds to the compliments.
How she could reveal so much information, even facts her partner doesn’t know, and even when her partner has not said anything out loud, makes this the best act I have ever seen.
That's very kind of you ❤ Thank you for brightening our day 😊
I haven't got the slightest idea of how it's done. So satisfying to watch when you don't know.
This was one of my favorite acts. You do this so perfectly. It's so slick, smooth, and entertaining.
You guys are truly incredible
Teller was so impressed that he gave you a cash bonus.
I am not a magician but I watched lots of mentalist acts. When other mentalists know, I could tell it's just a trick, however skilful they are. But when you guys perform, I really think there's something psychic about it...there's just no way you can know the names of strangers or elevate a person above the ground just by touching his head! Incredible!
We often feel the same!
SAme here. (what about the lifting someone part?___?)
You guys communicate very well and look happy together. Happy New Years from a fellow mentalist and honest pick pocket. :)
What a precious relationship
WOW 😳..
Just an amazing act.
You are fabulous .
Loved the show.
Loved you both.
Want to see more of this 😇
Yo if those Audience members weren't apart of the act I think I just witnessed sorcery and the only reason they didn't fool them is because they are also sorcerer's.
LOL that's the best comment ever ;)
Apart and a part mean quite the opposite things
Nobody else is in on the act.
They are not allowed to plant an audience member so yes your theory is correct😂😂😂
You forgot one more theory: they somehow got those information from the audience. How? Idk
"how many people in this room know your mother"
The communication element is simple, but it is by no means easy. And requires massive amounts of practice. This is what takes 'mind reading' to the next level.
Thanks, we appreciate your support!
Love this, It looks difficult to learn but you make it look easy
Saw you at George Mason last night. Truly amazing!
This is incredible guys! Well done - Greetings from Australia. Very crisp, smooth, professional and mind blowing!
Thanks Matt !
Keep in mind that all these P&T shows are pre-recorded for TV and are carefully edited in post production to squeeze the show within its network timeslot - and that same editing work is also used to be sure the show doesn't accidently give away the performer's trick. So every time we see cuts between camera shots, we can assume we're not seeing the entire performance - especially anything to tip us off! That said, if Penn says he was legitimately impressed then that's enough for me.
They are so good at this that they dont need editing. It is exactly the same live, i assure you. They are amidst the best couples doing this act in human history.
That was great guys. I hope you two have children so your act can be passed on and kept alive for future generations.
Goodness. You don't have to have kids to pass on your act. You can teach anybody who's interested. Your kids may not want to be mentalists.
Why can't they pass it on to me?!
Amazing trick! What moved me most besides the trick was the love between you two. Hope you're doing well!
Well done Jeff & Tessa. Excellent work! Looking forward to catching up soon.
Thanks Timothy. We had a wonderful time. :-)
Amazing! So glad you don't do it as religious act, but as it is supposed to be, as magic act.
Cheers from Rio de Janeiro Brasil
I would have been a little more mystified if I hadn't watched Nightmare Alley but that doesn't take away from the act. What amazing skill and there are definitely parts that I don't know how they're done, unless there's technology involved. I have to think it's all code.
Absolutely amazing act! I’ve yet to see anyone do it better. 😎
Every time I see these 2 I am amazed. Great act.
Thanks Fred. :-)
I can't get your act out of my mind, it is so great! I have no idea how you do this, but believe Penn when he said that it's incredibly hard and takes great skill and practice. You really inspire me. Thanks!
Thanks Doug! Keep your eye out for the private rehearsal video we'll be releasing on Monday to our subscribers.
She’s so good with the crowd. Amazing public skills
Great job Tessa and Jeff!!!! You're amazing!!!
Thanks. We're glad you liked it. :-)
Teller is such a nice guy
Yes he sure is. Smart too!
So amazing! Love this performance.
Joshua Adam Magic thank you Joshua!
Cash’s girlfriend is done with all of this
This is a tough act to do and was probably tough choice for Penn and Teller, cause with and act like this, there is only one kind of way to do it and Penn and Teller know what they're doing, but the act is so advanced. It's a "I know what you're doing, but not how you're doing it" situation.
if that was the case judges in the backstage would say they got fooled. it is not matter of "we know what youre doing but dont know how youre doing it". they know the methods, they know how it is done, what penn was saying is that they dont have skills needed to do it themselves. it is a bit different from not knowing how they are doing it
I actually know how this trick is done! There's a fantastic young adult series called The Great Brain by John D. Fitzgerald that explains how this routine is done. Penn is absolutely right, the more you know, the more amazing this performance is; top notch!
ok, then how they know the guy's mother name when he claimed he's the only one who knew it?
@@SimKieu If this magic trick were Math, I'd say I have I a pretty good understanding of the fundamental arithmetic and algebra, while what they're doing is calculus. I have educated guesses, but ultimately that's all they are.
Magic is a puzzle that only the magician knows the solution to. I have a lot pieces in the right spots, but I'm missing quite a few.
All I'm saying is I appreciate this trick more because of my basic understanding of the routine from this awesome book series.
If you really want to know, here are the three rules of magic:
1) Never do the same trick twice
2) A good magician never reveals their secrets
3) You can ignore rules one and two if you pay enough money
That being said, most the secrets of magic are ugly. Once you know, you can't unknow. If you're okay with that, then feel free to read the books yourself.
@@wargrunt42 can you just tell me, then we can delete our comments
You guys are the BEST. So well done
Thank you. :-)
I just wanted to know, does Jeff perform any sleight of hand card magic outside of the mind reading act?
Card Tricks he has a few up his sleeve ;)
They were just on the magic word podcast. They are amazing.
Most enjoyable act on P&T so far. Very polished and pofessional.
Thank you John!
How old is Tessa? Damn she is amazingly beautiful. I had goosebumps when i first saw her on Fool Us, her complexion is out of this world.
I am 36 and i'd still have her or even marry her in a heartbeat.
Thanks Kimbururu. Tessa is already married ;)
Fantastic stuff! They are the best 2 person mind-reading act in the world.
Adrian, thank you for your kind words.
Great act!! I believe that for the part with Penn and Teller and the numbers on the bill, there is some kind of code or system of communication, very well performed though, because you cannot really tell if there is anything out of the order. However, the thing that blows my mind even more, is the part with the name guesses. Even if there was a code or a system between you two (I'm not saying there isn't, it just can't explain everything), how on earth did you get the names of the people right? I could say that the people were not randomly chosen and were part of the act, but I'm guessing that's not allowed. So HOW??? :D :D Just amazing!
It is our own method of communication without any form of electronic equipment devices. Glad you enjoyed it!
@@TheEvasons You haven't explained the "just thought" stuff yet... è___é It can't be pre-work 'cause you're not allowed. I WANT THE BOOOOOKSSSS :P
@@TheEvasons but still, how do you know the people's names?
@@jorgelightwave They probably did some research of the audience info before the show
@@SimKieu but how did they know who'd be there 😱
Is this real channel
i watch many p&t acts and just move on to next one... but i have subscribed to you xD i wud like to see more of your performances and honestly i tell you after watching so many acts on p&t... those 2 guys are NEVER so impressed by anybody xD well done and really you deserve all the honor and respect
I sat next to them at Vegas Wonderground. Very nice couple.
🤔 wonder how I missed this performance. Thought I had seen all episodes from this season.
Was very impressive.
From where can you watch all the episodes? Netflix has only season 1 and 2.
@@alabaalala7272 I've been watching everything, individual performances and entire shows here on UA-cam. But the CW is where the shiw is aired, probably best to look there.
@@Blondie42 Thank you very much!
.......... usually i at least have a _guess_ how it was done. it's probably wrong, but there's a guess. ......... in this case, i've got absolutely nothing. i'm just AMAZED. i am just, wow. i'm basically speechless.
I get the basic gist of this, but how the hell do they know that guys mom’s name? The only thing I can think of is looking at who purchased the seats before the taping and then proceeding to stalk them, but isn’t that against the shows rules? Can someone explain?
they probably had a third person go around and talk to people before the show started. 'hay thats a cool watch' etc. At least thats how a lot of churches do it.
@@c00lsteve very interesting. That explains this better than anything else I can think of.
Dark magic.
Yeah usually a third party mingling with folks before the show starts. That guy had a pretty unique name, it's possible that they just found him on Facebook to get the mom's name. But knowing that the watch was a gift from his mother is pure "mind reader" technique.
Penn is correct, the more you know the more impressive it is.
Watching this in slow motion... Doesn't help figure it out.
They say seeing is believing, and now I believe in the totally impossible.
This was amazing!!!
Love these two
Is Tessa a real witch. Cos there is literally no other explanation. You guys are awesome.
I bet tessa spent that $100 on shoes. .
Thanks Crazy Gamer! How did you know about the shoes? Wow, you're good!
That was mind-blowing. :-)
We're glad you liked it.
I hope I get to take my boys to a show like yours sometime. Being in Wyoming though there aren’t many options and the options we have aren’t very good acts.
That was amazing
The same as the clairvoyants. So there's a trick behind it you both know. I wish I knew too.
We've been doing this for 30 + years, so they could be like us ;) The trick is being closely connected.
The Evasons and Clairvoyants are both a couple. There's a only one explanation to this. The woman's soul was sold to Satan to gain the power.
Absolutely stunningly beautiful you two ❤️❤️ wow!
Hi guys very well done. I know of permorfances like this (starting from houdin, to modern mentalist like maven, banachek, brown, and that the french guy i'll never rember his name). ANd i think you did it excpetionally good, with the greatest class and smile on your face one could ever have (instead of the usual "spooky" way). Greetings!!! Could you PM me the essential books I should read about it? Cause it's twentyfive years now that I'm a fan of this art, i can perform some of the most difficult slight of hand (still, can't go from backpalm to the other side fluently TBH-______-). WOuld you? PLEAAASEEEEE
I'm now dying to remember the "french guy" name (well it was fluent in english too, so I think he is french canadian or something)(and I think he's now dead-___-). He was famous for an ambition card routine where he goes back and forth in time, a phamplet i bought on the internet some decades ago (but lost after an hard disk failure :/) where he explains about body language, and the blindfold performance. Please help at least on this one!!!
Ok but how on earth can you know the name of that guys mom? That is impossible I don't see how that trick worked.
Listened to you guys on the magic word podcast! AMAZING!!!!
Nice performance!
Chris S thanks!
What sorcery is this? Totally blown away…….
*Phenomenal act!*
The biggest mystery to me is how did you know the name of the guy's mother. Unless the card had this info and you saw it I have no clue. 😮
You could use facial recognision to find his social media and then find his mother but I don't think the show would allow that.
Other than that, no clue XD
@@knory123 they said in a comment reply that they didn't use technology. They could be lying of course lol but idk
the only part I can figure out is that the questions aren't random he's selecting what to ask depending on the person.basically could have been mother's name...or something totally different beyond that I'm lost other than there are probably multiple methods involved
Penn said whatever he wants but he will sure a tough cookie....... He'll be like ' No trophy for u ' 😉
I have never had a magic trick get me so utterly baffled, and I truly love it. It has forced me to delve into this world of magic to seek out the answer. I understand completely if you can't answer my question. But I have heard you say that you use no confederates, does that include instant stooges?
Yes Brian, no stooges and no electronics.
@@TheEvasons THen give us the books titles è___é (ok... Ill stop by now :P)
Well I have never heard a 14 year old be so exciting about something that I couldn't explain good job at eou guys!
Ryan Jorgensen thank you for sharing that! We loved the Fool Us experience. You can watch more videos on our UA-cam channel, check out our website for details www.evason.com
Remind me to avoid playing bridge against you guys... ;-)
That was incredible even knowing it isnt real!
I wish I was a 1/1000th of how good you are in this in anything in life. Receiving Pen's utmost respect for attempting a similar path and not even coming close to you, really shows what you've achieved and you can be proud of yourself
Why was Cash sitting with a bunch of cash on his lap????!
No, Penn, we need to know how they did it ALL especially the numbers on the $100 note.
This act is really interesting, There is a code but the stuff when you knew the guys mothers name is a bit wierd.
Would love to learn that to freak people out.
The guy could be in on the act easily
I think I have an idea. But i have none how thet get the name from ppl..
But u think she counts letters, thats turns to numbers, and those numbers stand for something. And thats what peen means when he said to learn/remeber alot for codes för stufffs.
Way better than the clairvoyants but thats my opinion these two are amazing.
I want to get taught from u
This is absolutely not a criticism of any sort, but have you considered doing something atmospheric and dramatic, with a slower pace? I feel like it would land harder and be even more mystifying if you had more time to work with (even though it's far more impressive the way you're doing it now, just from a sheer skill standpoint.) The beats and the words seem even easier to pull off seemlessly against a backdrop that was all spooky, slow and dramatic. Grimacing, grunting, really acting like it takes a lot of effort to use this power.
Also: possibly you could also have people check you out with metal detector wands beforehand?
I just think that this is soooo damn good and improvisable that it's something that could easily win AGT if you went all Shim Lim with the dramatic stuff.
