Hedne describes himself as a "mentalist". This is a very specific title. Penn's entire speech is about how "Everyone thinks you did trick X but you actually did trick Y". Actually, a better way to put that would be "Everyone thinks you did trick X but you actually did trick 3". There is no traditional magic trick going on. Hedne keeps saying he did not influence them, but he did. A mentalist is basically a Jedi skilled with using Jedi mind tricks. Hedne did not actually perform a prediction, sleight of hand, or any "traditional" magic trick. He influenced Alison and the guest to say the things he wanted. Penn and Teller know he did this, but his usage of props, speech, and body language were so skilled and discrete, that they could not figure out what he did. This is why he said "We figured out one thing you did, but we couldn't figure out the other".
@@MrNarratore Look up "Mentalism" on wikipedia. Don't look up "Mentalist" because you'll get the TV show. Also, look up Derren Brown and his show if you want to see a pretty entertaining mentalist. He had an episode where he demonstrated one principle of mentalism that might be at play here in this clip. There's a segment on one episode of his show where he's standing on a street corner and talking to the camera. He shows us 8 portraits of people one by one. Then he says "Choose the one that you remember most from the line up" and he places them all on screen at once. He then points to one and says that you chose this one, and I mean I personally did. He then explained that, the reason why he was the one we chose, was because the dude walks by in the background of the shot during the first time we're shown the portraits, so his face is the only one we've seen twice. Anyways, I'm not saying this is what was done, but it demonstrates both the principles and the power of mentalism. I'm positive that's what happened here in some way, from the way Hedne calls himself a mentalist to the way Penn describes the trick in code.
@@NXHLVS Wrong! Mentalist is not someone who influences other people's thoughts. They are those who make the trick seem like they influenced their thoughts. BIG difference. You can't predictably influence other people's thoughts, and even if you had some which you used, you'd never bring tricks like that to a competition.
Thanks for a very entertaining routine, Hedne'. So clean and impossible. I wish my friend Robert M was still with us to have seen this, as he really enjoyed your type of thinking. Tusen takk!
WOW! Some of the best sound bytes from Penn I've ever heard. Huge congratulations on a job extremely well done, Mikael. Damn... just lovely. And I still don't get it.
Aquiles Carattino I caught it the second time around. Which means I was FOOLED. But the simplicity of it is so good that simplicity in and of itself is the misdirection.
@Matthew Klimek when he shows the card, the number 10 and clubs show up at very precise moments. then when she guesses 33 its because he has 3 fucked up fingers in both hands
I think I got what Penn explained. The trick wasn't to match the cards that Allison and the volunteer choose which was what the magician said he'd do. The trick was to get the chosen cards to match the King and the 4 when they're finally flipped around.
It is very rare when I didn't get anything from Penn's explanation, but it doesn't really matter for me) Your trick amazed me and I'm gonna looking for your future illusions!
@psqsteasjuice Exactly. Some might say paper thin. Also, "the trick they saw, not that you did" is a hint for most tricks, but even more so here. Either way this was a very enjoyable trick and made me think! (I wasn't even positive I figured it out, but Mr. Hedne liked other people's comment, but not "Red"s up top, which was a strong hint) (also, this trick took more effort in terms of skill than Penn and Teller's trick in this episode! That wasn't a knock against P&T. Sometimes they do very complicated tricks and sometimes, it's incredible simple. Often, it seems with them that the more distraction/misdirection, the simpler the trick.)
@psqsteasjuice Some magicians do not understand "coded" messages because Penn improvises and often messes up the message. Even Penn sometimes doesn't understand his own message. However, the magicians are well behaved and pretend to understand Penn. But in this case, it was transparent - it was really the thin line (it's not just one line) that divided things into what was seen and the unseen.
I know how you did it but don't know how you did it. It probably makes sense to you. What an amazingly clean trick. Love it. Absolutely a mind buster this one.
@@TonyWorep i think he meant we were focused on seeing a card force, slight of hand.. etc on every move he made, but we couldn't see any because there was none :)))
@@Humaka01 That make sense. Since people who try to reveal the trick would try to use like sleight of hand and stuff like that, but in reality, there were any of that
@@TonyWorep He said he guessed both cards, but that didn't happen. He picked two cards and matched them with both choices they made during the act.... Normally the act leads to the actual cards and this act lead to a different outcome. Also, if you look at the 4 it is different in the photo and in the actual card.
If the number and card were selected from the same prediction, the cards would no longer be turned over and there would be a big round of applause. The magician could turn over these cards, but I personally would not do so to keep the principle secret. Now the answer to your question - if, for example, Alyson changed the number 33 to 4 (ten crosses would not change in this case), then a problem could arise, because turning both cards or one (crosses ten) would reveal the principle of some exchange. positions. It would be necessary to force another change of number in advance. (Force cards to change if cards match). There are more unwanted coincidences than happy coincidences. It is best if the spectators choose different cards and different numbers, or exactly the same numbers and cards from the prediction. The magician made a great presentation, which also includes a little skill.
My guess: four different outs: 1) Neither number nor card matches prediction: as shown here. 2) Number matches, card does not: find matching card in deck, amaze everyone by showing the number on the back is what the spectator said. 3) Card matches, number does not: find number in deck, amaze everyone by showing the card with the selected number is what the spectator said. 4) Both match: just reveal the prediction. If that's right, that seems really elegant: a ~1 in 26 chance of an even more amazing, even more impossible trick.
@Dara DeBuitlear There's a 51/2704 chance of out (2), a 51/2704 chance of out (3), and a 1/2704 chance of out (4), for a total of a 103/2704 chance (1 in 26.25...) of getting an even more amazing trick. I actually think the (much more likely) outs (2) and (3) are even more amazing than out (4), because (4) is just a little "too" impossible.
@@zygoloid It is practically never allowed to reach any good or bad extreme. If the first card selection matches, the change is immediately enforced, because you cannot rely on a happy second selection match. Lapidally, a happy or unhappy match between the two cards will never be met, because the selection of an identical card or number is avoided at the very beginning or at the end of the act of selection by the method of repeated selection. Counting combinations is not applicable in this case.
So if i understand penn correctly the cards are all double backed. I think you can kinda see him scrapping something off the underside when he takes out the 33 at 3:30. i think thats the way he did it. same with the 10. If thats the actually how he did it i have to say i would have never noticed it without watching it again or help from penns codes.
If they casually chose the correct number already on the back the card, i guess the trick would have finished earlier and in an even more spectacular way!
Yeah he is saying "not gimmicked" very loosely this season. I think what he meant is that the two cards in the final presentation are *no longer* gimmicked.
Man, after a lot of thinking and listening to Penn’s words I just figured it out. And it’s even more amazing once you know the technique. I definitely have to make myself a copy of this deck.
Well, that’s a bit vague because Penn refers to the stuff laying on the table. And it‘s true that there are better terms to describe this than „gimmick“.
Gode Mikael - din unge & spretne far tipsa meg om denne linken - og kva skal eg seie! Fantastisk, fenomenalt, fantasmagorisk!! Pure genious!!! Alt godt til deg!
Hmm, if I understand the "code words" correctly, it totally contradicts when Penn says "nothing is gimmicked". I think I can figure out one way to do this trick, and it involves some smooth handling.
@@aditsu well penn mentioned that what was on the table was not gimmicked i think. basically those two cards being clean for inspection. how i think the trick was done it wouldnt actually be clean though, so im not sure on his method. fantastic performance!
Fantastic trick, wonderful presentation, GREAT stage presence. I think you're doing exactly what you're supposed to be doing! Wish you the very best of luck, I really enjoyed this! There's a comment in here which goes into great detail about how it was done, and it's possible. Had I not seen that comment, I would have absolutely no idea. And for once (I watch these videos a lot and enjoy looking through the comments to see people work out the secret)....for once I actually wish I hadn't seen it!
Hint: in the beginning when he shows the cards, he didn't show all the cards with numbers then when he turned back the cards, he didn't show all the card faces..
@@hednelive , then it should be a deck switch maybe. My point is that all the cards have the same number and face in their back OR I still don't understand Penn's code talking , and I was just starting to believe that :D
This trick is much easier than the guesses people are making. All that is required is that the number and card match when they are turned over, the whole trick is how that is done. The suit/number the participants choose make no difference, but it was the idea that they did that first had Penn and Teller thinking they had seen something impossible.
you said "All that is required is that the number and card match when they are turned over, the whole trick is how that is done.". Are you okay? Of course that's "all" that is required. I don't get you. That's the whole trick, how did he get it.
@@bohnec1 We never see all the cards, so the most plausible explanation is that he has a bunch of cards with the king of spades on the front and a bunch with 4 on the back. This should tell you everything. Regardless of which card would have been picked, the result would be the same as he has a specific selection of cards which, when turned over, will provide this exact same result on the other side. So what Jason said holds true, ONLY THE CARDS AFTER THE FINAL FLIP MUST MATCH.
@josip eric the "whole trick" was that he wantes you to believe they selected the right cards. That's why pen said the trick people are trying to figure out is impossible. But yes, the trick he "actually did" where he just had to have the backs of the selection match is very much possible. I could tell you but it wouldn't really be okay to reveal stuff on the magicians own channel. If you'd like a clue though, pay attention to how he's handling the deck when when he goes to get the first selection and what pen actually means in his "coded hint"
Exactly mate, people don't get the trick because they are trying to see an act that never happened. And even after Penn saying that in code they are still trying to figure out what they saw and not what really happened. He already had both cards selected, the choices are irrelevant.
@@37racso that is a good guess but not how it's done. as penn said, it's a normal deck. you're correct in assuming that only the flipped results matter though
Well, I usually figure out 99% of the tricks. This is one of the 1% that I don't know. Or, I don't really know how something was done. It's such a wonderful routine!
If they start off picking the 4 or the Ks then would you just ignore the picture and play off the card and the number being on the same card? That would be pretty funny to have a different trick prepared that only comes up a small amount of the time
Connor Gray strong observation! I do that simply for efficiency purposes, so that I’m able to quickly locate the chosen number. Otherwise I run the risk of that part dragging out a little.
I'm glad you can figure it out. Honestly, I didn't follow it at all and I'm usually able to keep up with it. My hat's off to you if you figured it out.
When you grab the 10 of clubs the card next to it is a 6. But at around 318 at the bottom left you can see that the king of spades is next and you see something similar with the 33 though its more difficult to see
Spoiler: The Picture was made through a screen from below the table and developed directly on the table. Thats why he had to turn the cards after the picture was finished.
The very moment the trick was over, my instinct was to see the two cards in laminate turned over. Then Penn did his little talk and I'm willing to bet that the two are connected somehow.
@@foff7136 old enough to be wise but young enough to know today’s possibilities, i was probably wrong saying it’s most likely but it was just a guess lol
I know how this trick was done. Before the show began, he planted the suggestion of "clubs" into Alison's mind using remote-repetitive subliminal suggestions. He did this over the course of nearly 48 hours while camped out near her Las Vegas bungalow. Next, during the performance, he used a ULF interferometer to force the factorial 10! into the male audience member's mind. You can hear the electric noise in the background. And the cards used in the reveal were all prepared in advance. Easy!
@@Sarah_Gravydog316I think he had double backer. with any selected card he would have used his same backer, and the turned card would always result in as shown in pre clicked picture.
OK, I'm not really looking for an explanation, but I need to know: is there anyone else who was utterly baffled by Penn's "code"? I mean, it seemed so well encoded that I didn't even know it was code, and yet, it also seems that he didn't say anything at all. Am I alone on this?
What ever cards they chose, he attached his card and number prediction to the back via sleight of hand. If you looked at the back of his cards you not see the cards they picked
Penn: 🤔
Teller: 😃
I love how the prediction covers up the cards for a second. It makes it seem like you have epic ninja level slight of hand, when you don’t.
I think I'm more impressed with Penn's code word explanation without giving away the trick than the actual trick...no offense. Trick was awesome.

What happens if the spectator picks a number or a card that is already part of your prediction? Has it happened before?

Exactly mate, people don't get the trick because they are trying to see an act that never happened. And even after Penn saying that in code they are still trying to figure out what they saw and not what really happened. He already had both cards selected, the choices are irrelevant.
@@37racso that is a good guess but not how it's done. as penn said, it's a normal deck. you're correct in assuming that only the flipped results matter though
4:45 can anyone else hear a zombie in the audience?
Lol I did 😂😂
This mans purple suit is a bigtime need, fuck yeah
I really wanted him to end it with a Rick Roll. Missed opportunity.
Sorry 🤷♂️
Well, I usually figure out 99% of the tricks. This is one of the 1% that I don't know. Or, I don't really know how something was done. It's such a wonderful routine!
kinda cringe xd
Double lift
@kevin gonsalves i don't believe any doubles were used. Just a simple cut is all it takes.
If they start off picking the 4 or the Ks then would you just ignore the picture and play off the card and the number being on the same card? That would be pretty funny to have a different trick prepared that only comes up a small amount of the time
Probably would, yes ;)
When the card from the envelope covered the cards they picked is when the magic happened 😉
Indeed, strange moment...
hacksaw is my favorite tool in my garage
ya fooled me, I saw the picture go up and I was sure you did some sleight of hand. I guess that makes me the bumpkin and you the master lmao.
Amazing trick. Tutorial please?
The real magic is pen telling the trick without telling the trick
I don't know if this is important, but the marks on the backs of the cards is every third number.
Connor Gray strong observation! I do that simply for efficiency purposes, so that I’m able to quickly locate the chosen number. Otherwise I run the risk of that part dragging out a little.
But that begs the question, why even use a shuffled deck...WHAT AM I MISSING!?!
Marty Neal well, I’m sure if the cards were in new deck order some would’ve pointed that out as well :)
Very nice trick! I like how you threw in the misdirection for magicians too. Too bad Teller's code is as obvious as a London bus in Phoenix Arizona.
I'm glad you can figure it out. Honestly, I didn't follow it at all and I'm usually able to keep up with it. My hat's off to you if you figured it out.
Hes indeed a huge deal in Norway... 25% percent of the Norway’s population have already subscribed to his channel :) :) great magic though
Haha that’s brutal
Why then does he only have 410 subscribers?
@@graycuzzies5834 because that’s 25% of the Norway’s population ...
When you grab the 10 of clubs the card next to it is a 6. But at around 318 at the bottom left you can see that the king of spades is next and you see something similar with the 33 though its more difficult to see
Good catch
How did he do it?
Spoiler:
The Picture was made through a screen from below the table and developed directly on the table. Thats why he had to turn the cards after the picture was finished.
Fantástico!!!
BOOM!! Den satt rett i sikringsboksen... rått mann. Vi skjønte iallefall ikke et kvekk!! Håper vi ses på Geilo igjen snart.
U fooled me alien 👽
The very moment the trick was over, my instinct was to see the two cards in laminate turned over. Then Penn did his little talk and I'm willing to bet that the two are connected somehow.
lol nope!
3:05 is that it? the way to put cards in right order to cover chosen cards by prepared ones
its most likely technology. the cards are face down therefore there could be a screen under that takes a snapshot and sends it to the picture
@@Elm98 no, you live in dream world, he just put stiky thin prepared cards under chosen ones, OR written numbers on needed cards while talk
@@Elm98 mate how old are you?
@@foff7136 old enough to be wise but young enough to know today’s possibilities, i was probably wrong saying it’s most likely but it was just a guess lol
Great. Trick
Ekstremt bra!
GREAT trick. @3:28 listen closely.
Actually two double lifts is enough for that trick to happen xd
I know how this trick was done. Before the show began, he planted the suggestion of "clubs" into Alison's mind using remote-repetitive subliminal suggestions. He did this over the course of nearly 48 hours while camped out near her Las Vegas bungalow. Next, during the performance, he used a ULF interferometer to force the factorial 10! into the male audience member's mind. You can hear the electric noise in the background. And the cards used in the reveal were all prepared in advance. Easy!
I know it probably wasn't forced but I swear I chose the same card at home. That doesn't happen often to me haha
I think, the magic was performed when he turned the cards..
nope! watch it again!
@@Sarah_Gravydog316 do u want me to explain what i think
@@likePratik ok? I do the trick, but please go ahead! :)
@@Sarah_Gravydog316I think he had double backer. with any selected card he would have used his same backer, and the turned card would always result in as shown in pre clicked picture.
OK, I'm not really looking for an explanation, but I need to know: is there anyone else who was utterly baffled by Penn's "code"? I mean, it seemed so well encoded that I didn't even know it was code, and yet, it also seems that he didn't say anything at all. Am I alone on this?
Its simple. Black magic.
@@95ZR580 Ah! Now it's clear. And Red roses for a Blue Christmas with a Green Christmas tree. Thank you for helping me understand. LOL ;)
What ever cards they chose, he attached his card and number prediction to the back via sleight of hand. If you looked at the back of his cards you not see the cards they picked
How he did it
Very well? :)
Loved the Tom Mullica influence on comedy and great trick.
I’ve never felt like more of a Muggle.
Errr.... what just happened?
Really a nice trick, Hedné, after 3x watching I finally got it how you did it.
looked to me when he held the picture up right over the cards on the table, something suspect was going on behind it :P
How did he do it?
@@Scorch428 I don‘t think so ;-)
his reference seems to be Tom mullica shows.
Exactly what I thought!
Wow.
