If you look at teller, he says how the trick is done. Read his lips he says Magnet, and it is a metal coin that he picked, rest of the coins were non magnetizable coins and the spatula has a magnet. I had my doubts but i saw teller say it and it proves it. Also pen saying Pole To Pole aludes to magnets.
Most coins aren't magnetic. But the signed one is. Also, he pushes down the coin with the same spot he licked. So the magnet doesn't have to reach the sides of the bowl. Hi literally sets the spatula down right on the coin.@@nitedk
I miss Alyson. She was so bubbly and full of energy. At least they shouldn't have hidden Alyson from the flashbacks of the previous shows. I hope she comes back.

Honestly I do know nothing about code he used or the exact method, so my guess is the coin never went *into* pudding and instead was transferred into his mouth via spatula when he licked it, right?
When Chris was counting cards and telling Penn and Teller to stop, he would count down from 10. Let’s say they stopped him at 6, then he’d put the remaining 4 cards down. Then let’s say they stopped him at 2, he’d put the remaining 8 cards down. No matter when they stopped him, he put 10 cards down every turn. Chris already put all the cards into the correct spots before getting on the stage because he knew he’d be putting down 10 cards every time. That’s why he said he was never gonna shuffle the deck
Yeah. You geniuses don't think Penn & Teller knew that already? I'm guessing Chris fooled them with the other aspects of his performance. Namely the literal Jaw dropping Finale (from Teller). Explain that guys.

the cut at 4:16 is unfortunate for us viewers because how the f did this white ball appear on the glass when you see it again...? what did the audience see?... anyway great performance.
I noticed that as well, and right after he made the water disappear the black ball "shrinks" and you can see him sliding the real one back into his coat.
Right before 6:00 you can see him swap the white and red. The one before you can see him do it as well. Good Performance Base but has to work on the trick aspects.
Really? That was the least impressive of all the acts for me. It's a self working trick for the most part. The countdown piece will always have you land on the 11th card so that is where the queens are positioned. The aces are positioned every 10th card.
@jasper5016 Since he starts at 10 and counts down, then counts out the number you stop at, it always adds up to 11. So if you stop him at 7 (10,9,8,7) thats 4, then he counts 7 more because you stopped him at 7, that adds up to 11 cards from where he started. It works the same no matter which number you stop him at. 2? (10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2) + 1,2 = 11 etc. Still a very impressive trick to get everything arranged just so.

I was pondering why he used a plethora of quarters instead of a plethora of pennies. I think I’ve procured a possible answer that provides the secret to the prestidigitation. Pennies are made of copper, therefore not magnetic. I think there’s a magnet in the spatula. When he pushes the coin with the private particulars into the pudding the magnetic spatula picks up the coin with the private particulars upon it. While she is pouring the quarters upon the pudding, he partakes of the pudding upon the spatula. Thus procuring the coin inside his mouth. Hides it in his cheek, and after putting his face in the pudding, he produces the coin with private particulars. I ponder if a professional in prestidigitation can procure or put together a pretend penny with magnetic properties. Such a prop would provide the performance with perfect patter. Indeed, Penn’s the “pole to pole” comment seems to confirm the prop with magnetic properties.
@@jjchello no, I think there was a magnet involved. Penn did say “pole to pole”, and there has to be a reason why he used quarters instead of Pennies. Pennies are too obvious. There’s only four widely used coins in American currency, and only one starts with the letter p. He had to have a good reason to not use them. Although, I did wonder after posting that why other coins did not stick to the spatula when she mixed them up. I think maybe there was metal (maybe another coin?) in the spatula, and a magnet on the outside which he stole along with the signed coin. Yes, it WAS dumb.

@@johnmassee561 umm... dude... when he said between 1 and 4, most people understand that to mean inclusive. So there goes your wonderful explanation, genius. You have zero idea how he did that trick.
The spatula was magnetic. Only her coin was magnetic. He licked the spatula and hid the coin in his mouth. I know little about magic but I figured this one out right away. Especially when he licked the spatula.
Chris's trick: First part there are two possible ways he could have done it. First is putting a seven of hearts in the 12,14,22,24,32,34 positions notice he can choose if he wants the 23 card or the 24 card (in this case he took the 24 card. Also notice we cant see any of the cards starting from 10. Another option is banking on phycology just like people choose 7 out of 10 people choose 3 out of 4. After 3 people choose 2. And when asked the order they put the smaller number first. Try it for yourself. Probably he used a combination of these 2 techniques. For the second part it is quite obvious that the aces are in every 10th card and the Q every 11th card and you can easily understand from quick math that 11-x plus x equals 11. Very surprised they said he fooled them
I know it definitely is "counting" when Chris said no cutting or shuffling is allowed. And the most give away of the first part is that Chris does not further allow Pen to count the card one by one afterward. But I wonder if Pen could have noticed the repeated card of seven of hearts if those are placed too close. So my further guess is that 12, 22, 32, 42 are another card and 14, 24, 34, 44 are seven of hearts, so that the repeat of cards becomes a little bit hard to be noticed. There are two shoes for him to pick for showing the corresponding card to audience. But I may be 100% correct as if it is some kind of "forcing" combined with the above. The second part is very obvious and easy, and I don't think his presentation could fool anyone has some sense on maths. Very shocked when Pen and Teller said he fooled them... a bit disappointed.
Yeah. Guys forgot about the literal Jaw dropping Finale (from Teller). How about an explanation? Chris obviously saved the Real Banger at the End. Which, to me, was what got him another Trophy. Great performance 👏🏼
Had the best Big Mac of my life at the McDonald's in the Rio food court. Was there back in February/March for a pool tournament. Teammate had a B&B at Rio tower.
anyone else instantly see the first act get the ball from the corner of his jacket and quickly push it under the cup from 5:44. the pudding one was childsplay too. he made sure it stook to the spatula and palmed it in the corner of his mounth which was very easy to see, I knew 100% he would face palm into it to cover it up way before he did it. pole to pole says it all, it was magnetic, im no magician and I can work out half these acts. come on guys get more challenging people on the show. nevermind pen and tellers trick was really easy to work out too, the kink in the rope wasnt even removed after.
You can also see him add the red ball in and had a few flubs. Not bad...just a bit of a weird guy and needs to work on getting his tricks down perfectly. The smoke is a decent touch.
The coin was made with iron. The spatula has magnet in it. As spatula pushed the coin down, it actually picked up the coin. While the lady place all other coins into the pudding, he licked the spatula and hid the coin in his mouth.... Thus why he had to plunge his face into the pudding.
John Lewitt's trick was pretty simple to figure out, he picked up the coin with the spatula and placed it in his mouth when he was eating the pudding. Still fun to watch tho.
Fun fact: the two girls in the audience shown at 23:54 are actually taken from Season 7 when "Thunder from Down under" perform their show during Helen Coghlans escape. I wonder why they did that?
So many people on here are saying something vague like "the trick is mathematical, and obvious and dumb". None of these people have any idea how he did that. No clue. Zero.
the second part of the trick IS obvious and dumb, of course if he counts down from 10 to 10 - N cards, then after you stop him he removes the remaining N cards, he'll always show the 10th card no matter when you stop him.... As long as you put the aces in 10th, 20th, 30th and 40th position the "trick" works by itself. I'm sure most people probably got in on the first watch if they were paying attention The first part of the trick is pure sorcery tho, because with their method of picking a number, it could have been 11, 12, 13, 14, 21, 22, 23, 24, etc. and we saw that none of these cards were the 7 of diamonds. This one blew my mind
The block of wood at the end of the video COME ON!!!!!!!!!!!1 TO EASY TO FIGURE OUT. I AM A NAVY CORPSMAN I KNOW KNOTS. KNOT A MAGIC TRICK. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Pretty sure it's just 6 prerecorded videos where he can sorta insert a live stream of himself into any of them, with some processing to keep it from looking weird when he does that. P&T seemed to think he had a bunch of prerecorded endings for the various things they could have done or said, but I think the cards were a blue-screen and he could put anything on them (while still doing the green screen separately). The important part is that he had to say their responses out loud, so someone working the tech could set up the ending... because it would've been more impressive if he just pretended it was all prerecorded instead, so apparently he had to respond. Even though that seems a bit weird, because if he has 6 videos, he could sort of 'drop out' at any point and set it up himself...
All six prerecorded switch positions, but the real live feed is being inserted among them (that's why Pen says "popping from one place to another") so he can say things that he's already seen that will match the answers, and he does this 3 times when the cards appear (there's no bluescreen, that's real ink written). When he says this trick was expensive is because he needed the help from the studio, because that green screen, audio and lighting must all match exactly for all pre-recordings and the live feed@@Dimencia
I am probably missing something but it looked to me that Chris' trick was just a bit of math. He starts counting down from 10, when they stop at a number say x, he starts counting up.from 1 to x, so he always skips over (10-x)+x cards, so 10 cards (maybe 11, details). So all he had to have is those cards set at the right places. A lot of it seemed to be based on similar basic math... So I.was surprised to see that they said he fooled them. Maybe there are other more subtle parts, but still, this is the main part.
Chris's trick was probably the easiest one. But the performance was beautiful. Every 10-11 card was queen. You count backwards or forward, you always end up on 11th card. Still beautiful performance though.
The pudding one was much more amateur than this show usually has. The guy is nice and all but thats the type of magic I'd expect at a 12 year olds b-day party from a college student charging 50 bucks a gig.
@@GavinWongMagic Yes, but then he gave the same spatula to Brooke to stir the pudding. Just like the first time a quarter or more than one stuck to the spatula when she pulled it out.
@@LetsMars Or the magnetic property of the spatula could be switched off after he recovered the marked quarter... I wonder if the P letter was chosen because it is easy to still speak the P unimpendeded with a quarter in your mouth.
@@olivier2553The magnet could be shut off if it were designed that way, but it doesn’t appear that it was. The magician also didn’t appear to expect that Brooke might ask him a question so he hesitated before responding and it was apparent that he had something in his mouth.
Not sure why people are so thrilled with Chris’s trick. The deck was in an order and no matter what number was stopped he finished that many cards deeper. He used 12 card blocks and would be left with the four cards at the end. Simple math trick, and there’s no way they were fooled.
You know, I've always thought that Penn and Teller would give people the trophy and pretend to be fooled even when they weren't. Chris's card tricks were very easy, almost entry level stuff that they had to know. Penn even states that chris never does card tricks, like hinting that it was maybe amateurish. Were they just doing an old friend a favor, maybe getting him some work after "fooling" penn and teller?
not really.. the cards were pre-shuffled into a certain order. all of the queens were at the 11th position. If he counted down from 10 and got to 7, then there were 4 cards down on the table, and then he counted out the 7 under the kings..
Chris had me smiling and then laughing all while being amazed. Absolutely incredible!!

Also notice we cant see any of the cards starting from 10. Another option is banking on phycology just like people choose 7 out of 10 people choose 3 out of 4. After 3 people choose 2. And when asked the order they put the smaller number first. Try it for yourself. Probably he used a combination of these 2 techniques.
For the second part it is quite obvious that the aces are in every 10th card and the Q every 11th card and you can easily understand from quick math that 11-x plus x equals 11.
Very surprised they said he fooled them
I know it definitely is "counting" when Chris said no cutting or shuffling is allowed. And the most give away of the first part is that Chris does not further allow Pen to count the card one by one afterward. But I wonder if Pen could have noticed the repeated card of seven of hearts if those are placed too close. So my further guess is that 12, 22, 32, 42 are another card and 14, 24, 34, 44 are seven of hearts, so that the repeat of cards becomes a little bit hard to be noticed. There are two shoes for him to pick for showing the corresponding card to audience. But I may be 100% correct as if it is some kind of "forcing" combined with the above. The second part is very obvious and easy, and I don't think his presentation could fool anyone has some sense on maths. Very shocked when Pen and Teller said he fooled them... a bit disappointed.
Yeah. Guys forgot about the literal Jaw dropping Finale (from Teller). How about an explanation? Chris obviously saved the Real Banger at the End. Which, to me, was what got him another Trophy. Great performance 👏🏼
Had the best Big Mac of my life at the McDonald's in the Rio food court. Was there back in February/March for a pool tournament. Teammate had a B&B at Rio tower.
anyone else instantly see the first act get the ball from the corner of his jacket and quickly push it under the cup from 5:44. the pudding one was childsplay too. he made sure it stook to the spatula and palmed it in the corner of his mounth which was very easy to see, I knew 100% he would face palm into it to cover it up way before he did it. pole to pole says it all, it was magnetic, im no magician and I can work out half these acts. come on guys get more challenging people on the show. nevermind pen and tellers trick was really easy to work out too, the kink in the rope wasnt even removed after.
You can also see him add the red ball in and had a few flubs. Not bad...just a bit of a weird guy and needs to work on getting his tricks down perfectly. The smoke is a decent touch.
The coin was made with iron.
The spatula has magnet in it.
As spatula pushed the coin down, it actually picked up the coin.
While the lady place all other coins into the pudding, he licked the spatula and hid the coin in his mouth....
Thus why he had to plunge his face into the pudding.
John Lewitt's trick was pretty simple to figure out, he picked up the coin with the spatula and placed it in his mouth when he was eating the pudding. Still fun to watch tho.
If I were talking in code, I would give this a 10, or maybe even four 10s. Great trick.
Yes Capehart get's a 12 in my book.
This is great, tv is not dead
She was Stunning ❤
Anyone else catch the red light in Jacob's hand? Not sure what role that played in the trick but interesting nevertheless. You can see it around 5:55.
I saw it and had to rewatch it to be sure that’s what I saw.. it was a beautiful act though
I couldn't see it but a red light might turn a white ball to red.
Just classic misdirection, makes it harder to see him doing the move. Though he's so fast, I don't think he needed it
@@DimenciaHe wasn't particularly quick or accurate. You can see him making the switch a few times.
24:45 magnetic quarter, magnet on spatula, when he “licked” the spatula, he sucked the coin into his mouth and held it until the reveal.
Yeah that one was very simple, not sure how that guy got on the show to be honest.
Brooke may have been the only one on stage who wasn't a magician, but she still enchanted me.
Can't get enough of Brooke's voice ♥
It's too bad she never sued the butcher that did that to her face. Plastic surgery malpractice.
@hipflipped what do you look like
Fun fact: the two girls in the audience shown at 23:54 are actually taken from Season 7 when "Thunder from Down under" perform their show during Helen Coghlans escape. I wonder why they did that?
They mix and match crowd reactions. Also, a lot of the same people like going to these filmings.
maybe the cuter likes them
Chris's trick was really nice
Great trick. You should come back from retirement. But. I got you licking the coin from the spatula.
The pistachio one was so obvious I knew what it was from the very start so you can bet so did Penn and Teller. Not sure how that would fool anyone.
I agree. The only thing I could think of, is if his magnetic personality and appeal just was a red herring…
Brooke pouring the quarters is meant to be the misdirection while he licks the spatula but it was a little too obvious
Many magicians simply use the platform as a marketing act.
The coin magician was easy to figure out....
I'm no hater but ohh my I miss Alyson, she had a different vibe the energy is missed.
Love to Alyson ❤
Same lol
Brooke's questions are so bad. Nobody can match Jonathan Ross's banter.
I LOVED Jonathan Ross! Such a funny host
Ondřej may not have fooled P&T, but Brooke liked his boxers so who’s the real winner here?
No decks were shuffled or cut. It's a mathematical trick. But to create it is really mind-blowing. I would travel to see Chris perform. 🤩
As i was seeing it i was like: This shit is sooooo damn obvious....
And the magic number is 11
So many people on here are saying something vague like "the trick is mathematical, and obvious and dumb". None of these people have any idea how he did that. No clue. Zero.
@@JohnDoe-ol3yz people just pointed out the number 11. You're dumb if you dont get it.
the second part of the trick IS obvious and dumb, of course if he counts down from 10 to 10 - N cards, then after you stop him he removes the remaining N cards, he'll always show the 10th card no matter when you stop him.... As long as you put the aces in 10th, 20th, 30th and 40th position the "trick" works by itself. I'm sure most people probably got in on the first watch if they were paying attention
The first part of the trick is pure sorcery tho, because with their method of picking a number, it could have been 11, 12, 13, 14, 21, 22, 23, 24, etc. and we saw that none of these cards were the 7 of diamonds. This one blew my mind
Pretty predictable. It was obvious how he licked the coin off the spoon thing and hid it in his mouth.
Lol I was thinking the same thing
@@GavinWongMagiceveryone was lol
The woman in NFS UNDERGROUND 2 🤩
That brother is twistedly good.
Chris trick was so stupid if you count from 10 to x and then from 1 to x you always take the same ammount of cards no matter what x was... wtf
If you play this on .25 speed 😂😂😂 unmask that magic 😂😂😂
the pudding was the easiest one I ever seen....magnet on the spatula then he licks it off the get the coin in his mouth
😂
Alyson was really the Best
Pleasant performance! Prestidigitator presented penny. Poised presenter pleased. Personal proof precisely placed. Pudding penetrated. Pennies plunged, pressed, perplexing public. Perfect precision! Performer plunged, pulled properly personalized penny, producing perfectly puzzling, pleasing presentation.
The card trick is so easy. Just put the Ace on each tenth place and the Queen on eleventh
The first card trick is good since they pick the number and the card was on ready on the shoe
I love numbers and noticed it after the second time of counting down.
But the first part of knowing tellers card in a shoe is the magic
12:34 He reminds me of Chester V from Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, LOL! The protagonist in the movie lol.
That last bit P and T did was a miniature version of a larger gag of rope passing through a human body.
When he licks the spatula, he already had it...
Nothing against Miss Burke, but I liked Hannigan much better, just my opinion. And Jonnathan Ross was the best for me, no doubt.
Thank you for welcoming everyone by "Namaste"
Love from India
what is namaste?
@@thureintun1687It's what a squatter says when you tell them they need to leave your property.
@@justinlast2lastharder749 who are the squatters?
The block of wood at the end of the video COME ON!!!!!!!!!!!1 TO EASY TO FIGURE OUT. I AM A NAVY CORPSMAN I KNOW KNOTS. KNOT A MAGIC TRICK. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
i seen some of how Jacob done some of the tricks i figured him out. but was still good.
Did she say "Namaste"... Cool ❤
The green screen trick uses technology but I'm not sure how. I noticed some wild unnatural blinking, plus dead staring. Still not sure.
Pretty sure it's just 6 prerecorded videos where he can sorta insert a live stream of himself into any of them, with some processing to keep it from looking weird when he does that. P&T seemed to think he had a bunch of prerecorded endings for the various things they could have done or said, but I think the cards were a blue-screen and he could put anything on them (while still doing the green screen separately). The important part is that he had to say their responses out loud, so someone working the tech could set up the ending... because it would've been more impressive if he just pretended it was all prerecorded instead, so apparently he had to respond. Even though that seems a bit weird, because if he has 6 videos, he could sort of 'drop out' at any point and set it up himself...
@@Dimencia I would never attempt a trick that relies on technology. So many things can go wrong and if one thing goes wrong it's over.
All six prerecorded switch positions, but the real live feed is being inserted among them (that's why Pen says "popping from one place to another") so he can say things that he's already seen that will match the answers, and he does this 3 times when the cards appear (there's no bluescreen, that's real ink written). When he says this trick was expensive is because he needed the help from the studio, because that green screen, audio and lighting must all match exactly for all pre-recordings and the live feed@@Dimencia
see how the hands dont match uw with the sleeves, explains it all combined with @Dimencia en @salsatheone their explanations ;)
I am probably missing something but it looked to me that Chris' trick was just a bit of math. He starts counting down from 10, when they stop at a number say x, he starts counting up.from 1 to x, so he always skips over (10-x)+x cards, so 10 cards (maybe 11, details). So all he had to have is those cards set at the right places. A lot of it seemed to be based on similar basic math... So I.was surprised to see that they said he fooled them. Maybe there are other more subtle parts, but still, this is the main part.
The forced 7 of hearts was the only part that was fooling. The rest of it was a self-working math trick.
The secret to the first act is the table
Chris's trick was probably the easiest one. But the performance was beautiful.
Every 10-11 card was queen. You count backwards or forward, you always end up on 11th card.
Still beautiful performance though.
Love the p's poem guy
At 6:06, we can see him taking the black ball with his left hand behing the table and putting it inside the metal cup(slow the video at 0.5)!
The pudding one was much more amateur than this show usually has. The guy is nice and all but thats the type of magic I'd expect at a 12 year olds b-day party from a college student charging 50 bucks a gig.
the coin stuck to the spatula and he licked it, transferring the coin to his mouth.
Poor Brooke didn’t know what to do when a quarter was stuck to the spatula after she stirred the pudding.
Pretty sure it was just the first quarter that was stuck
@@GavinWongMagic Yes, but then he gave the same spatula to Brooke to stir the pudding. Just like the first time a quarter or more than one stuck to the spatula when she pulled it out.
She was a playboy model. What do you expect.
@@LetsMars Or the magnetic property of the spatula could be switched off after he recovered the marked quarter...
I wonder if the P letter was chosen because it is easy to still speak the P unimpendeded with a quarter in your mouth.
@@olivier2553The magnet could be shut off if it were designed that way, but it doesn’t appear that it was. The magician also didn’t appear to expect that Brooke might ask him a question so he hesitated before responding and it was apparent that he had something in his mouth.
Me in this situation
Penn: think of a magic word, then say it and drop the cube.
Me: .......aaAAAVADA KA......
no copywrite issues? great episode btw
With chris's routine, im sure the second trick didn't fool them, it's a classic. But the first trick he did definitely fooled them
The quarter was picked up on the spatula so when he licked it he transferred it to his mouth.
Yea that one was a bit lame and extremely obvious.
Very obvious..
That first act had me confused. Great sleight of hand.
At 4:15 why is there a cut? The glass on the left had no ball on top... then a cut and there is a white ball on top of the clear glass?
Christ the Volvo you sold me was no good. You would have been better magician if not too many video games. 💯👍🙏
Pudding one was funny but obvious.
The pudding trick,clever but not hard to figure out
Not sure why people are so thrilled with Chris’s trick. The deck was in an order and no matter what number was stopped he finished that many cards deeper. He used 12 card blocks and would be left with the four cards at the end. Simple math trick, and there’s no way they were fooled.
Thats the magic
@@Po_ra_li it’s not magic though. The deck is just preset.
How the hell did they get fooled by last trick that was pure math
You know, I've always thought that Penn and Teller would give people the trophy and pretend to be fooled even when they weren't. Chris's card tricks were very easy, almost entry level stuff that they had to know. Penn even states that chris never does card tricks, like hinting that it was maybe amateurish. Were they just doing an old friend a favor, maybe getting him some work after "fooling" penn and teller?
4:14 the ball just appears on top of the cup is magic real? Or does pen and teller cut their tapes man that annoys me
5:55 what's that brief red flash...? i swaer he's using ancient witchcraft of some kind. or, some type of laser...?
Too bad the camera cuts always ruins these for tv viewers.
finaly good sound. but a bit louder than normal. still better
WHERE DID THE WHITE BALL COME FROM WHEN HE WAS SPINNING THE STICK??? WITCH!!!!!
How did he get the ping pong ball on the cup?
Unfortunately the 'P' joke got beaten to death by the end of the trick, and it distracted from the magic, rather than adding to it.
So, Jacobs was all about Table😂😅
While a funny routine, the magnetic spatula was more for a kids birthday party.
Master of the mind was the most mind blowing. 😮
not really.. the cards were pre-shuffled into a certain order. all of the queens were at the 11th position. If he counted down from 10 and got to 7, then there were 4 cards down on the table, and then he counted out the 7 under the kings..
