They mic'd teller lol
Thanks for pointing that out 😂
It was a deliberate trick called a blink mic. Deliberately placed mic on someone who doesn’t or isn’t going to talk. Like Kermit the frog holding a mic.
Why doesn’t he talk? I’ve never figured out if he really can’t talk or it’s just some shtick
@@idkjj8835 He talks. You can find interviews and such of him talking a lot. His voice is not what you'd expect.
@@idkjj8835 he said why he don't talk in this video.
It's so awesome being able to watch this in slow-mo, watch them palm the balls, blatantly reach into their pockets, sling second balls back into the empty cups, etc...
I don't think it diminishes the trick at all, but rather, it shows off how complex the trick is, and, how well they choreograph their every move.
It's still just as incredible with the clear cups. I still can't figure it out.
There are some wonderful things for the audience who is doing that too. First ball Teller palms in his right hand while disappearing it from his left. He then feeds that ball under the next cup to prepare it to be revealed.
So when he disappears the second ball you expect him to do the same: palm in the right, disappear from the left... except after he disappears from the left, he opens and shows his right hand. He doesn't have the second disappeared ball, Penn does. There is no reason to reveal this in the classic trick. The ball was disappeared, it doesn't matter who secretly has it.
It is a subtle hand motion that is only relevant for audience members who are very closely following the trick and trying to actively track the balls. The trick would work just as well without that reveal.
That is the best part of Penn and Teller magic. There is a show within a show. They aren't satisfied with tricking you, they also want to impress you as you try and work out the trick.
Teller has the patience of a saint. Idk how you sit there having an opinion & not being able to say it. I like to think that Penn knows how Teller feels enough to add in what Teller would want to say as well. Teller is such a brilliant man. I love hearing his philosophies when he does speak.
Why doesn’t he
@@yerik6034 It's part of the entire act. He's a guy named "Teller" that doesn't speak. The act has been portrayed this way for decades.
Teller will speak when he's not on stage in a preforming aspect. I've heard him doing symposiums and lectures and he's an amazing talent. But to have him suddenly speak while on TV doing promotional work or stage preforming would take away from the style they have perfected over the years.
Here on UA-cam there are several videos of such events where Teller speaks his mind and talks about his past and how he became friends and partners with Penn. Look 'em up! I think you'll be impressed with just how well spoken he really is.
@@Tedybear315 He usually speaks on theses types of things. I suppose because they would be preforming right after is why he didnt. Hes the actual slight of hand expert in their act. Theres a reason Pen mostly explains while Teller performs. Teller is a masterclass in the art of slight of hand.
I know it is part of his act, but I do wish he would speak in more interviews. I have seen him lecture on magic - and he is a wonderful speaker. 😎
He's a ventriloquist. Penn isn't speaking at all. You didn't know?
These guys are unreal... Watching it happen with an explanation and just the unbelievable speed and efficiency at which the operate is insane.
Teller is the best ventriloquist I have ever seen... 😂🤣😂
You can only get away with showing the trick if it's just as amazing to watch when you know the secret. That requires magicians at the top of their game relying on their skills and showmanship.
Once you start seeing though the showmanship (distraction methods) and observing there hands 👐 you start seeing how rubbish some of them are at sleight of hand 🖐️ lol
@@buskingkarma2503 Calling Penn and Teller rubbish at sleight of hand? Teller is renowned as a master of sleight of hand.
@@cometvaudin2850 Did I say or even use the word rubbish in my comment? 🤷♂️ There obviously skilled at what they do, just making an observation that's all. I actually like there show where they invite people to try and fool them and they did explain the trick themselves at the end so maybe that's why they slowed it down 🤷♂️ lol
@@buskingkarma2503 Look at your comment again. It wasn’t even a synonym, you said ‘rubbish’.
@@cometvaudin2850 I stand corrected on using the word rubbish, my bad sorry, but it is in the context of,,, some of them are rubbish,,as in just certain magicians in general(and obviously no were near as skilled as Pen and Teller) . At no point in my comment do I call them rubbish,or there act but your right I did use the word rubbish. However I think you've maybe read my comment wrong lol so sorry if you got that impression, there record speaks for itself so it's hardly rocket science that are so not RUBBISH! Is it? 😂 Take care and have a good day 👍 ✌️ ♥ 🏴
I love that the sound guys put a microphone on Teller!!😂 😂
I love how Teller has a mic clipped to his jacket 😂
7:26 "Because that's the kind of mother she is"! 😂😂😂
🤣🤣
There is nothing greater than sleight of hand and these two might be the greatest to do it. Absolutely mesmerizing.
I love Teller's mic lol. But seriously, his voice is so soothing and pleasant (there are some videos of him speaking). I would love to listen to audiobooks of him.
Isn't it strange that he doesn't talk though I mean if you want to go by Voices right who would you rather hear talk Penn or teller you know what I mean
@@Treevors30 It's too big a part of the act by now, Penn doing his "carny trash" spiel serves as a misdirection that doesn't feel like filler that keeps you engaged but only exists to distract, they've built so much on that dynamic Teller suddenly speak would only take away from the trick. But in terms of something like an interview it would be nice to hear more of Teller speaking genuinely
In fact it's even more impressive watching how they do it showing everything!
It becomes a demonstration of skill instead of a magic trick. Pen and Teller have been doing this bit for years and it never gets old for me.
Saw them live in Las Vegas. Totally mind Blowing and Absolutely BRILLIANT. Barney Glasgow. 🤩
I think one of the beauties of P&T is the fact that they do show how a trick’s performed because it’s absolutely beautiful to watch the cleverness of setting it up, misdirecting the audience and pulling it off. I love to find out if I was correct or not in thinking how it was done.
The thing about P&T is that they only expose tricks they developed or tricks that are so old they’re in the “public domain” if you will.
Every time I watch the trick I laugh so much... They are incredible :-)
they always miss a golden opportunity in every interview like this to have the interviewer directly ask teller a question and he opens his mouth about to speak and penn just answers it for him
Love seeing Rebo and Zooty doing magic.
Zoot zoot.
I love Penn and Teller. They warp my brain cells.
Using slo-mo to watch how the cup and ball trick is done only reinforces my admiration for their skills and coordination as a team. In slo-mo, with sound muted, you're not distracted by Penn's non-stop patter and you can clearly catch glimpses of reflected stage lights off the aluminum foil balls they're palming.
And in the setup for the cup trick, Teller only shows the audience the inside bottoms of the first two cups, not the third where he stuffs the ball.
The best part of their gig has always been the wry anti-magic irony. It seems like they're deliberately giving away secrets and showing us "tells" as a distraction from the real tricks.
that's a good idea; watch it at 1/3 speed with the sound off
You don't need to do that. Just keep your eyes on Penn's left hand and Teller's right hand as they go out of view and that's when they load the cups from their pockets, which are also out of view. It's an excellent trick but one you know how it's done you can spot all the loads' quite easily. The absolute master of the cups and balls routine, and many magicians agree, was the late Paul Daniels.
Sleight of hand is one of the most amazing skills any human can learn
Tellers slight of hand is just top notch.
Have you seen Shin Lim, a magician who appeared on America's Got Talent? He is on an equal with Teller.
Awesome, love these guys.
The clear plastic cups version they do is just awesome, an absolute classic.
I love Penn & Teller’s magic twicks.
Teller's sleight of hand is god-level.
He has been doing that professionally for over 40 years so it should be.
I love Penn and Teller!!
I love that I just watched how they did it and I still have NO CLUE on how they can do it so fast.
Awesome stuff!!!
Would love to see you guys live 🤣🤣🤣
To this day I still love their cups and balls trick.
Even with see through cups I had no idea what was happening
The guy with glasses reminds me of Neil Tyson deGrasse when doing interviews, never stops talking.
The talent to be able to perform this trick flawlessly at the speed they are doing it, with clear plastic cups, after they showed us where they are hiding the extra balls, while they are explaining what they are doing in real time, and its still difficult to see much, is truly amazing.
They like Jonathan so much, they asked him to host Fool Us.
@Red Dwarf I’m not 100% sure but I think this interview was before Fool Us. I could be wrong.
Got [really, really] misdirected on the title. I guess it's called bait and switch.
I guess you got TRICKED into watching it 😁😉
It really FOOLED US
Why hasn't David Blaine ever been on Fool Us?
Penn barely let the interviewer ask questions lol
Usually the other way round with wossy
The interviewer barely let him answer. They were both great at the starting to talk right as the other was about to finish.
The three dudes in the backstage seem fairly impressed.
I was about to comment .....
And then i saw what you did there 😁👏
I'm a year late. Well done. 😆
Huge fan
He named his daughter after my state soda that's wild
Hahaha even with them explaining it takes skill to that.
Watching these interviews with Penn being voice for the both, I wonder how well spoken Teller is. Having studied classics and taught Latin .. presumably fairly refined
there are numerous interviews on YT, just a few clicks away. Wonder long shall you not!
@@jeffreymason7049 you make a good point
I love how when Penn says "I've forgotten what level of Dante's hell that is" and Teller instantly responds by showing 6* fingers. So brilliantly connected these two are!!
5:04
Edit: I had previously incorrectly said "5*"
6 actually
@@philmenzies2477 thanks for the correction 👍 I'll update my comment 😊
Love the hell out of P&T. aside from their stage act. They had one of my all time favorite shows called, 'Bullshit'. Coming out around the show 'Mythbusters'. both shows got to the truth, and shined the light on a lot of BS.
the pen and teller version makes me laugh every time i see it. its absolutely hilarious. when he yells at us about how he isnt juggling. the misdirection works even better cause i find myself having to rewind and see teller use momentum to slam the cup down with the tinfoil. my brain just cant keep up with how much this act displays
Lighten up Tom Jones, it’s a magic trick, I mean where’s ya smile mate 😂
He was butt hurt over what Penn said about Vegas. Tom Jones was "retired" in Vegas for over 40 years.
I did not recognize him (or realize he was still alive). What is with that odd little out of the way couch? Bizarre setting. 😎
"yeah kid, ya got a lotta Moxie!"
Even though they shown me how its done... I still dont know how it's done!🤯🤯
Cups and balls again?! I've seen them do that a hundred times. Now it's 101. But really, a great trick. They are the best. I look forward to performance 102!
dude, this is from 2010, relax
@@HomieChril It's also a trick they can literally bring and set up anywhere. Hard to do something big when you're on the road
Isn't that kind of saying "Electricity, again? I've seen Palpatine use Force Lightning 100 times." Might be time to watch some new Magicians.
I really like penn and tellers work. For everyone who wonders "szultán" the hungarian word penn explains isn't simply means king, it was used for the turkish king in the middle ages.
For me, I see a magic trick and I go, that's nice. I see how it's done, the complexity and simplicity, the genius behind and I go...Wow!
But would that extend to all tricks? Obviously the cups and balls in this video is designed to have that effect. But some magic tricks, like Penn said, just have a really ugly method. Nothing super clever, nothing super fascinating - really better not to know and enjoy the magic.
you can search UA-cam to see and hear Teller talk..hes very interesting and well spoken
I forgot about that ELO song lmao
I think I was even more confused with the clear cups
Nice trick amazing
Who kept rewinding on the second round and was still confused?
i watched the cups and balls with clear cups at half speed and caught like 60% of it.
Im not bad. They are just that good.
11:26 just three guys enjoying some magic...
When was this recorded?..... Got it. 2010.
These two have mastered the art of running over the last three words of each other's sentences. Literally no space between any of the dialogue.
9:16 I caught him took the 2 more tinfoil balls out of his pockets while he was talking it means they can't fool us
Edit: you know what after I saw they revealed the trick I still felt I'm stupid cuz of how fast the big tinfoil balls and baseball appears
They’re just that good.
You caught him took?
If you put this video on the slowest motion you actually see they are joking😂
Anyone else got certain ideas while looking at the moving decoration behind Penn.
Or I've got a dirty mind.
a BASEBALL!!! a BASEBALL!
That is awesome that he named his daughter Moxie I love Moxie a lot of people hate it
I wish I had someone to look at me the way teller looks at Penn .
I mean Teller is the much better magician but sure 😂😂😂
I hate talking, I wish I could find a Penn. Lol
This has to be top 10 magic act ever. Maybe top 5. An absolute classic.
I can't even name 5 magic acts. How are they not top 5?
two of the greatest ever!
Frauds
Where is the argue with David Blaine?
Wrong aspect ratio, any way to fix this?
4:08 David Blaine
How the fuck didn’t he show inside the last cup😂
"You usually go to Vegas to do the same act over and over and retire"
No wonder Tom Jones looks so butthurt lmao
Chung Ling Soo was shot in the lung by one of his assistants.
but where did the cups come from??
Please fix the aspect ratio.
Tom Jones doesn't look impressed. He's thinking, "These guys make more money in Vegas, than Elvis and I did?"
I must be thicker than the average bear. Tested at 167 I.Q. in elementary school+got my first magic set when I was a pre-teen. When I say I must be sick if I watched and tell her to do this ball and cup trick and then do it a second time and then do it with clear cups and I'm no more aware of how they did that trick then when they first started the trip LOL
In a parallel universe Teller does all the talking.
Penn and Teller after watching Penn and Teller- "You rat bastards"
Blaine is a beast. Yeah it’s illusions but as of now no body does live street magic better. I’ve seen him on the street and it’s still like wtf just happend
cool
The little fella says nawt
Gods
Nice of Penn to allow Teller to rest both of his left legs on his lap
If you watch closely, Penn purposely left or changed certain details in the explanation, such as already having another ball in the third cup, and not actually pretending to take the balls out but instead swapping them out with others.
Obviously intentional, but I wonder why he wasn't being completely honest. Maybe so that there's still magic to it even when you go back and watch the trick while looking for the slight of hand?
Speaking of the slight of hand, it's amazing how quick they are. Literally, if you blink you miss it
Zoltán is indeed a Hungarian name but it's of Turkish origin (sultan).
love the clickbait. waited and waited for DB
So they never actually "argued" over specific tricks -- They simply had friendly debates over the use of the word "trick" & the essence of illusion
11:26 yea, this was a while ago..huh..oh how everything is trash now...
Is it me or these two always sitting supper close to eachother?
TIL
Chung Ling Soo was a white guy named William Ellsworth Robinson in yellow-face!
That young lady in the middle of the panel at the end seems confused even after it was explained.
The best little-known trick they did was to transform Ellen Page into a dude with one backstage hug.
Some cowboys messed with the aspect on this clip.
teller is 5'9. penn is really a giant lol 0:24
Bwilliant
Zoltán is NOT Hungarian for king, it's just a name, but it derives from the Turkish sultan. King is király.
