➠ PATREON: www.patreon.com/JasonParker ➠ INSTAGRAM: instagram.com/JasonParkerMagic ➠ TWITTER: twitter.com/JasonParkerNow How did you like Robert's performance?? I really enjoyed learning the concept of erasing 7's off the calculator using your finger... that was my take-away from this video! :) And how about the Aesop's Fable? Do you have any thoughts or experiences to add about this?
Jason Parker I had no idea about any of that stuff on the calculator! Thanks to Robert for sharing that! And I think they missed the moral. What I took away from it is don’t chop a hollow tree fillies with bees. That couldn’t end well
"Utility is most men's test of worth" I think it means that utility/what's visible should not be the only test of worth because often times what is under the surface is more important.
Hey Robert, thanks so much commenting here, and sure that would be great to learn some of those cool moves! I saw you posted your video on your youtube channel, so I made a link to it in my description now. :)
Great video. Personally, I am not a fan of any of these tablet or phone routines. I just find it to be inherently unmagical to do a trick on a digital display, on a programmable device. Every app is a magic trick, if any app is.
Yea, definitely. I also feel Penn and Teller agree with you, too. I think he Fooled them. They were vague with giving reasons why he fooled them. Even the magician was like, 'Uhhh... No...?' I think Penn and Teller were basically just saying, 'We don't care about digital app magic, because unless you're a programmer, there's no way to know. So you lose by default.'
I'm not a big fan of "technology" magic because my 6 year old girl shows me things I didn't know all the time. Just feels cheap. Maybe in the era of everyone being very familiar with technology this kind of magic will be more impressive.
I know how you feel. Carter ran an earpiece under that turban 100 years ago. Don’t get me started on Promystic charging top dollar for stuff a high school robotics club can do. It seems to always come down to the too perfect theory... if there’s only one way to do it that’s how they did it. But really it comes down to the performer and how he uses the gimmick. It crushed my ego when Magic Balay fooled me with a thumb tip . I think if you can tell technology/ a gimmick is used that’s the problem , not the fact a gimmick is being used
A year late, but! "Utility is most mens' test of worth." This is not testing the worth of the man, but the man testing the worth of a thing, in this case the tree. He was going to chop it down because it had no apples--the tree didn't do anything for him. He was not the one who used the shade, so when those who used the shade asked him to leave it, he was still going to chop it down--the tree still didn't do anything for him. He only stopped chopping when he found the honey, which was something he could use--the tree now did something for him, so he left it standing. So the moral is, MOST MEN will judge something's WORTH by how useful or beneficial it is; its UTILITY, if you will. Merry Christmas.
I think he fooled them. He did an excellent job of utilizing voice, shake, swipe, and type input features. I do not use fruity phones, so I cannot identify all of the swipe points, or identify the command after the voice input. But he did a decent amount of work to create a performance, that did probably use custom shake commands, and probably custom swipe commands. He should have used a charger cord.
ya...this whole subcategory of phone magic is a tragic field in that everyone knows that "this device can do more than I am aware of" When an presentation has a pre-programmed mindset of "what you are about to do is based on my ignorance of how my phone works" feels more shameful to the observer than it is awe inspiring. Perfect example...the high water mark of this presentation was when he divulged to the audience that the whole "removing 7s" was just how the phone worked. That was the "oh cool" moment in that we learned something. From there on out the act went downhill as he basically said..."ah ha...you didn't know about that 7 thing did you...well let me show you some other things you didn't know about your phone, but this time I am not going to tell you how they work"
there is some tricks that are pretty incredible (like open the locked phone) or "teleoporting' the phone... there is also some app where you can really do cool stuff, too.. but it's pretty rare
@@xbxb it can... but the point here is that is wasn't... and no one said anything about "impressive"... i find people that own expensive shit and DON'T understand everything it can do is wasting a HUGE amount of $ on something a fraction of the cost can do for what they ACTUALLY need...
I'm not a magician. But the software engineer in me can't be fooled by anything that involves electronics ;) My thoughts: Its not a regular phone. Its a "jailbroken" i-phone with a custom calculator app. Coming to the last part of the magic, notice how the phone is placed on Teller's hand without blocking the camera. That's because its running a modified optical character recognition program in background. It detects the number and makes it pop up on the screen! That's what Pen meant when he said - screen...shot - shooting the screen. OCR Except for erasing the 7777, you can't do any of this in a regular phone.
Magic with technology is not magic, it's just technology. If somebody uses gimmicted deck of cards be still wonder if it's real deck or not. If somebody is doing something similar I never, ever think that it's oryginal software, NEVER, even for a split second. I can make calculator app that make all of those things (even voice recognition of the owner - he spoke those custom numbers loud) and then all can be done with the other person's hands.
that is one very nice routine . i am sorry he didn't get the trophy but still, i really hope people with power to put him in the right place will consider him as a very good magician. you should absolutely research phone magic cause it's a gust of fresh air. what we see in magic show with great magicians old guys is probably 10-15 tricks and 10+ variations of mixes of those. this kind of tricks can be considered novelty so it can bring an element of surprise on the stage.and like you said once, the average spectator won't spend his time disecting your routine, they will love the way you do it clean and nice and apparently easy but not really :) . very good Robert Ramirez :) .we need more original people like him.
Tech magic is probably the least interesting and takes no skill to do. You use a program, or app, or the little tricks built into the phone that not many other people know about to make it look like it's somehow magical, but anything with tech can be easily manipulated.
I'm not a fan of that kind of illusion but it is ingenious to incorporate "glitches, bugs" with pre-loaded screenshots. Then it would be just a matter of how to switch screens without any obvious pressing of buttons, so to speak.
he scrrenshot 0 and put it on face ID screen block ... when he dissapear the numbers and put the result on 0 he just block his phone and when he unlock just put the new numbers and block it again to make it appear that loks still on 0 and when he put his face close or just the finger print unlock the numbear appear that is why at the end you can se his screen blink a little bit at 7:57
Good performance, you can tell it was all sleightly well rehearsed expect the last part. The last part was truly programmed last second into the act and it was phenomenal.
commenting on the fable... I guess it's sort of a gender thing... men do things / don't do things because of a certain purpose... the tree is useless, cause it bears no fruit, so the reasonable thing to do is to chop it down... when the honey is discovered, the tree has again a purpose... it's like when my wife askes if I'd like to go for a walk and my answer would be "where are we going?" ... she focuses on the walk and me on the destination ... so, is the way the goal or is it the destination ??? :-)
It's done with a screenshot, he really touch the buttons fast so that it won't be easily seen but he switched from calculator to photos specifically the screenshot of the number that Penn put in the calculator!
Nah. The very last thing he did, when the numbers jumped, was no screenshot. Those numbers clearly faded in, impossible to be a screenshot. I'm guessing Bluetooth to connect the two phones.
I like his personality quite a bit! The effect seems to be missing a hook for me personally. Perhaps a small story would've enhanced the performance. I'm not so into most tech magic because it requires a almost weird kind of focus and by it's nature it's starting off being distracting for me. I would've loved it if he somehow had the random number appear outside the device or something. VERY charismatic performer! Bravo@
it was more likely because he wanted to make the illusion that it would work on a spectators fruit phone and not his own. Kind of messes up the illusion if the other phone isn't using the same app as that's what makes it impactful imo
Load of screenshots of the 0 screen, take a quick shot of the screen with the big number on, then run gallery slideshow. The big number faded back onto the screen, coincidentally Fade is a gallery slideshow transition. Nah, this was a trick my 7 year old would come up with. If I had a 7 year old. Doubt we'll see this lad on FU again.
@@RobertRamirez Urgh! Destroyed my wise-assery by being such a good sport! XD I'm genuinely smiling here. Instant respect, sir. *thumbs up emoji* (Stoopid keyboard I'm using hasn't got my emojis, dammit!)
That was one of the most boring tricks that I ever saw.... Really underwhelming. He assumed that P&T didn't know much about technology since they were fooled a couple times by eletronic devides such as a fruit watch
Thanks for uploading and your interesting tales. We used to study Aesops fables at school many years ago. As for the magic trick - it takes him 3 years to come up with that?
I am not a big fan of magic done with technology. It's similar to watching video editing tricks: looks awesome, but I feel cheated. I did like his presentation and performance though, very solid.
The problem is that even if he's doing it on the native calculator app (along with other native apps, re: screenshot), which I'm sure does take a lot of practice to do that smoothly, there's the nagging feeling that there's no way for us to know if that's true. (Penn's phone is probably clean but yeah, he didn't do that much on it.) Basically there's a too easy explanation for the bulk of it readily available. Doing stuff on a screen just isn't very impressive (by magic standards) by default.
At the time I watched that episode I felt there were other magicians who warranted a reaction video more.... and its just a matter of finding time to film these videos. Not sure I'll have time to sweep back to him or not.... :-| Both AGT and Fool Us keep airing every week and it's about all I can do to keep up! haha
I'm not personally impressed by phone and calculator magic. It can be very magical but the usage of apps and ways to program devices is almost to the status of common knowledge. His presentation was good but this type of magic isn't for me. I do support innovating and creativity in the artform but personally, it's not moving. Thanks Jason!
I am sure that with 218 comments someone has explained utility is most men’s test of worth but it was easier to write this than read through those comments to confirm my suspicions. The tree proved to have a purpose beyond shade it provided him with honey and as such demonstrated utility. For this reason the man did not continue to remove the tree it became worthwhile in the mind of the man hence…utility/use being his personal and also most men’s measure for something being worthwhile. Interestingly this helps explain why in a fast paced and constantly changing world older people are separated and warehoused waiting to die as in such a society they are often seen as having no significant worth any longer. They are physically slowed by time and seemingly out of step with the way of things. Though I have been able to spend time in a society that honours its elderly….they typically live on with their children and take an active role in caring for the next generation while their own children spend time at work. Themselves having an ongoing purpose/function tended to be healthier and live on longer, the children seem to flourish are more fully developed as individuals, have a greater sense of society….perhaps there is more commonly honey in that old tree than not, and the moral should have pointed to looking more carefully before resorting to the axe.
Yes you're spot on again! I think l saw him depress as he blew. So the app that allows the phone to remove 7s by touching also allows touching anywhere on the phone window where any area can all enabled to have this amd other similar functions. Perhaps that area of the phone he protects by holding the phone in there when he lets them depress the keys. 🤔 He kind of gave it away when he revealed this function to everyone. Perhaps he shouldn't have to give his trick more mystique?
Utility is most men's test of worth. Usefulness is most men's measure of value. While it was just a perch for sparrows and grasshoppers the barren apple tree had no value as he derived no direct benefit from it. Once he set to cutting it down, he found a bee hive and honey within it. Once he discovered the tree would provide a direct benefit to him, the honey, the tree became something of value to him through this usefulness.
Up till the last par it was obvious how he did it. Watch the flips and rotations on 0.25 and youll see he find the right buttons but just to early. Only the last part is really interesting...his one he easily could push the button but how it revealed on penns phone im not sure
he scrrenshot 0 and put it on face ID screen block ... when he dissapear the numbers and put the result on 0 he just block his phone and when he unlock just put the new numbers and block it again to make it appear that loks still on 0 and when he put his face close or just the finger print unlock the numbear appear that is why at the end you can se his screen blink a little bit at 7:57
@ 7:33, you can see him press the button to bring the numbers back. What he's doing is he's pressing the button on the bottom phone with the pad of his thumb and the 0 button on the other phone with the knuckle of his thumb in a quick sequence.
Hey man Can u plis RE-EDIT ur Intro such that when the card flip at the end lands, the music stops too?( 0:11 )..The Music Stops a Bit earlier and its bothering me everytime i watch all ur videos haha.. None theless great video and YEA DO THE STREET MAGIC WITH ONLY THE CALCULATOR TRICKS..
I wish I had a fruit phone so when I add up my bills each month I could magically remove a didget or two! Was the Bluetooth feature used as he wave his phone over Penn's?
The part that messes up this trick is probably when he clears the numbers with his shake and flip. You can see him press the clear button which magically turns into the all clear button afterwards while he's performing it (no rewinds or slow motion needed). Or pointing out that his phone says AC while Penn's says C, after the switch Penn's says AC, in other words he just pressed C on Penn's phone... Thank god that the last time he actually gets the C button on there again, which is what he should've done the other times. Still you can see him press the buttons though. So I'm a bit meh... But that's my opinion on all of this kind of "magic", like I could probably make a duplicate calculator app that does all of this, but better, in just a few hours. So yeah, just meh...
Been watching for quite a long time now but you won my sub. It’s really simple you have clearly been listening to the comments and have adjusted and made compromises. Which is completely fair and how you grow a channel ! Keep the content coming and good work
I am usually not a huge fan of cell phone magic because people know phones are able to do stuff but this video made me realize cell phone magic can be cool not because it fools you but because if done well it can still look and feel magical.
My thoughts after the performance before P&T speak. I’m not impressed. He’s a well spoken performer and I would watch him again. But this trick just wasn’t for me
UTILITY in this context would mean something useful/practical. The tree was not producing Fruit, therefor a waste of space. The Sparrows songs arent worth much to his hunger and needs. When he found honey inside, THIS is useful. it can be eaten, stored and/or sold for other needed items. His level of poverty is such that he has no use for nor interest of song from bugs and birds. The tree was worthless (without utility) as were the songs, however a hollow tree full of honey (WITH Utility) IS worth keeping.
"Utility is most men's test of worth" = the way most men check if something is worthy is by measuring its utility. That's my understanding anyways... the tree had value for the grasshoppers and sparrows, but not for the man, until he found honey in it, and now it's also valuable for him. Therefore, he had no reason to keep the tree before that finding. Just my 2 cents.
Damn it. This does not work an my Android.. Google!! Update the calculator to add the magic features please! :) Or perhaps there are other calc-apps that have these features..hmm Joking aside, this was kind of an entertaining trick. But as always when using advanced electronic devices you can really have them do anything. In this trick he does remove all other possibilities to using custom apps or other extra features since he used Penns phone. So by doing that he makes the trick more interesting, but at the same time only allows for one broad solution.

"Utility" = usefulness. To him, the tree was only useful, and therefore valuable, after he discovered that he could get honey from it.
I had to scroll down a lot to find this. Well said!
I take this as men prefer function (bees produce honey - food) over form (birds provide pleasing sounds)

For this reason the man did not continue to remove the tree it became worthwhile in the mind of the man hence…utility/use being his personal and also most men’s measure for something being worthwhile.
Interestingly this helps explain why in a fast paced and constantly changing world older people are separated and warehoused waiting to die as in such a society they are often seen as having no significant worth any longer.
They are physically slowed by time and seemingly out of step with the way of things. Though I have been able to spend time in a society that honours its elderly….they typically live on with their children and take an active role in caring for the next generation while their own children spend time at work. Themselves having an ongoing purpose/function tended to be healthier and live on longer, the children seem to flourish are more fully developed as individuals, have a greater sense of society….perhaps there is more commonly honey in that old tree than not, and the moral should have pointed to looking more carefully before resorting to the axe.
Yes you're spot on again! I think l saw him depress as he blew. So the app that allows the phone to remove 7s by touching also allows touching anywhere on the phone window where any area can all enabled to have this amd other similar functions.
Perhaps that area of the phone he protects by holding the phone in there when he lets them depress the keys. 🤔 He kind of gave it away when he revealed this function to everyone. Perhaps he shouldn't have to give his trick more mystique?
It was different so I really liked it I have a different calculator so I couldn't make no numbers disappear oh shucks 😥
Utility is most men's test of worth.
Usefulness is most men's measure of value.
While it was just a perch for sparrows and grasshoppers the barren apple tree had no value as he derived no direct benefit from it. Once he set to cutting it down, he found a bee hive and honey within it. Once he discovered the tree would provide a direct benefit to him, the honey, the tree became something of value to him through this usefulness.
This sucks.. phones can read hand gestures nowadays. Not impressive at all..
I think that calculator trick only works with Fruit Phones! But it's so cool
However I'm sure there's an app that does that on the Play Store
Pina colada, yes. Dancing in the rain yes. But this kind of performance is just boring for me. For me its no magic.
Up till the last par it was obvious how he did it. Watch the flips and rotations on 0.25 and youll see he find the right buttons but just to early.
Only the last part is really interesting...his one he easily could push the button but how it revealed on penns phone im not sure
he scrrenshot 0 and put it on face ID screen block ... when he dissapear the numbers and put the result on 0 he just block his phone and when he unlock just put the new numbers and block it again to make it appear that loks still on 0 and when he put his face close or just the finger print unlock the numbear appear that is why at the end you can se his screen blink a little bit at 7:57
@ 7:33, you can see him press the button to bring the numbers back. What he's doing is he's pressing the button on the bottom phone with the pad of his thumb and the 0 button on the other phone with the knuckle of his thumb in a quick sequence.
THIS WOULD BE A PERFECT TIME FOR YOU TO MAKE THE VIDEO MAKING 7s DISAPPEAR!
I dont like magic with software, software already do a lot of thing we don't understand!
Swipe across numbers on your calc app if you have an iPhone…. Surprise, surprise 🙃
Im not a magician but the first part of his trick is quite easy to figure as for the part with Penn's phone I have no clue how he did it
@ 7:32 he screw up with his thumb motion. Pretty sure Pen and Teller caught that.
But he did fool them with the first diapering 7
Please don’t do this trick as street magic. It’s quite a boring trick.
Hey man Can u plis RE-EDIT ur Intro such that when the card flip at the end lands, the music stops too?( 0:11 )..The Music Stops a Bit earlier and its bothering me everytime i watch all ur videos haha..
None theless great video and YEA DO THE STREET MAGIC WITH ONLY THE CALCULATOR TRICKS..
He is definitely using some "Sleight of Phones".
Yes please gather street magic
I dislike phone magic a lot. It is just spoof programs.
W've never heard ot you....... Are you a magician?
I wish I had a fruit phone so when I add up my bills each month I could magically remove a didget or two!
Was the Bluetooth feature used as he wave his phone over Penn's?
haha... and I don't know how it would be.. but im not on expert on tech magic..
it won't work w the calc. on my Pixel3 "(
sorry... :(
I do like coladas, I’ve never danced in the rain... wait, yes I have, rain dance. enough about me, wanna see my basement? Buzzing,,, what buzzing?1
hahahah.... NO I don't want to see any basements for a while.... LOL
I mean this would be awesome at a party but would you ever pay money to see it?
I want to see YOU on Fool Us
The part that messes up this trick is probably when he clears the numbers with his shake and flip. You can see him press the clear button which magically turns into the all clear button afterwards while he's performing it (no rewinds or slow motion needed). Or pointing out that his phone says AC while Penn's says C, after the switch Penn's says AC, in other words he just pressed C on Penn's phone... Thank god that the last time he actually gets the C button on there again, which is what he should've done the other times. Still you can see him press the buttons though.
So I'm a bit meh... But that's my opinion on all of this kind of "magic", like I could probably make a duplicate calculator app that does all of this, but better, in just a few hours. So yeah, just meh...
How is this even magic?
he pressed the clear button on the cal app at time 6:23
If man can use it then it is worthy. Right?
8:05
Penn was about to say something
I can make 8s disappear on mine, one up on him 😬
learn by your own mistakes
and he pressed the enter button at time 6:30
why did Penn and Teller's number of 1492658 change to 2985316 without anyone noticing? Love your channel from Jupiter FL!!!!
doesn't work on my cellphone lol
Been watching for quite a long time now but you won my sub. It’s really simple you have clearly been listening to the comments and have adjusted and made compromises. Which is completely fair and how you grow a channel ! Keep the content coming and good work
I am usually not a huge fan of cell phone magic because people know phones are able to do stuff but this video made me realize cell phone magic can be cool not because it fools you but because if done well it can still look and feel magical.
for the final move I'm thinking he took a screenshot and put it into a slideshow before he puts his phone on Teller's hand.
is that curry wife?...3:47
Rumors has it he is still in that box
Fucking love You man
My thoughts after the performance before P&T speak. I’m not impressed. He’s a well spoken performer and I would watch him again. But this trick just wasn’t for me
Sparrows eat grasshoppers
UTILITY in this context would mean something useful/practical. The tree was not producing Fruit, therefor a waste of space. The Sparrows songs arent worth much to his hunger and needs. When he found honey inside, THIS is useful. it can be eaten, stored and/or sold for other needed items. His level of poverty is such that he has no use for nor interest of song from bugs and birds. The tree was worthless (without utility) as were the songs, however a hollow tree full of honey (WITH Utility) IS worth keeping.
That's just NFC lol
"Utility is most men's test of worth" = the way most men check if something is worthy is by measuring its utility.
That's my understanding anyways... the tree had value for the grasshoppers and sparrows, but not for the man, until he found honey in it, and now it's also valuable for him. Therefore, he had no reason to keep the tree before that finding.
Just my 2 cents.
Damn it. This does not work an my Android.. Google!! Update the calculator to add the magic features please! :) Or perhaps there are other calc-apps that have these features..hmm
Joking aside, this was kind of an entertaining trick. But as always when using advanced electronic devices you can really have them do anything. In this trick he does remove all other possibilities to using custom apps or other extra features since he used Penns phone. So by doing that he makes the trick more interesting, but at the same time only allows for one broad solution.
