Fucking incredible man.
How the freak, HOW THE FREAK, I MEAN REALLY HOW THE FREAK DID YOU DO THAT!!! FREAKEN AWESOME BRO THANKS
你是中国人吗 我叫Kevin Li 你也叫Kevin吗
Kevin , 你真厉害
I love how Teller just immediately went for the boba 💀💀
My Lien L. HE LOVED IT
He probably wanted to check it out and see if the answers were there
@@qb1120 I too felt so
@@qb1120 agreed
Cause he knew he was right and deserved the boba...lol
Plot twist: Allison is paid actress
Wait she is an actress being paid
One thing I'm curious about is whether Allison knew or not. I'm assuming she did, in which case, doesn't seem like it quite meets the conditions of fooling the people he's performing to. Obviously the show is about fooling Penn and Teller, but it seems like a tough magic trick to keep secret, if I'm right.
@@LtSMASH324 She seems to realize the part she has to play in the "forest" word.
Maybe she is getting paid to look like an actor that is getting paid
@@TheGremlinsParadise you just said shes being paid for acting nice try
@@LtSMASH324 No, Allison didn't knew the words, she literally reads them from a card, but to her those symbols have meaning. There's a way to do this with waves from a thingy, but I don't remember to correctly to say for sure.
His dad filming it like it wasn't going to be on TV 😂
hahaha parents really do be actin like they invisible
I would've done the same if I was his dad tbh. Sure the whole performance will be uploaded in crystal clear HD with perfect audio and flawless camera angles. But... there is a beauty and charm in taking the same footage yourself, from your angle, from your perspective as the proud father of your son having the moment of his life on stage. I would have filmed it myself with shaking hands and teary eyes as well.
@@KevinLimagic This was really beautiful! and your parents, so proud and acting Natural. SO rare on tv! (watched your video with the Talking Teller..love your intelligent warmth & skill, may your road be prosperous and bring much happiness :-)
Dude, come on..
Good thing he did, Phoenix CW ruined it with that repeating banner about DirectTV
Congrats. But it's unforgivable to give someone a bubble tea with a straw that is too small to get the pearls. Too much of a tease, lol.
Squish hahah
Agreed, reprehensible. Get the reusable pitchforks.
Yeah, fr her, I would have given a flute explaining it would be wide enough to get to the pearls... But then, u get the hint... :D
@@jhsdfjhgjh her and a flute, my best moments growing up
Allison used a flute so she could tilt the cup and use her mouth to get the pearls
There's a small man hiding in the straw yelling the answers out to Alison. Due to how small he is his voice is at a frequency that only Alison can hear. Trick revealed.
Bruh
Wow, it's the same man that lives in the radio!
Plot twist - Allison actually knows Chinese
I would have been funny if she would have answered back to him in Cantonese or in Mandarin.
Yes but what would be even funnier is to have her host the whole entire show in Chinese
More like Cantonese or mandarin maybe mandarin cuz Chinese and Cantonese is Hong Kong
She learned at band camp.
Plot Twist David Blaine actually knows English 🤪🤣🤣🤣🤣
8:27 Penn asks Alyson if he palmed it...he's not buying the trick
That's a sharp eye you've got there
They cannot lie about how they do or don’t do something, they have to explain the trick to a jury beforehand and if they lie, they’re disqualified and/or Penn and Teller are told in their earpiece (or Alison). If he says no palming then there’s no palming.
Noticed that too
@@LordAsturgis Also, we saw a shot of his hands from both directions while holding cards.
@@LordAsturgis That's what they tell you lol, but at the end of the day it's a show for entertainment purposes. For her to guess the "kevin you look so handsome" means one of 2 things, either she knows that language or she read it in English somehow.
4:35 - "You're doing a pretty good job so far" "Well, you gave me boba" - I have a feeling Alyson nearly gave the game away there, given where she keeps looking while you're talking!
@@rc.... Not until after they've said he's fooled them.
The game? What “game”
@@pkpckls i dunno how he did it but it had something to do with the boba.. the camera kept avoiding it too :P
💯
Kevin Li was Clever to select Allison. And Allison deserves credit for playing along with the trick.
The magicians are not allowed to use people who work on the show as actors or stooges. I believe the effect was done in such a way that Alison saw the words in English but we saw the words in Mandarin. It's a variation of an age old trick.
@@HurricaneSA There is one exception to that. The magicians are not allowed PRE ARRANGED stooges. They are allowed to recruit people who have been randomly selected, once they are on stage. There was a bit with people given different meals and what not and they had to read a prediciton of what they had chosen - but the prediction (which only they got to see) said something like "play along, for the fun of it, and say that I am right." It's pushing the rules, but it can be done.
A McConnell think u right but there allow to have set people in the audience but people
Like the presenter wouldn’t do it. Or if it’s the way u said not everyone would help the magic
@@amcconnell6730 you could be right, except that, when the 3 random Guys read the prediction, they didn't know any of the 3 dishes 😉
ruclips.net/video/OpTOQGAfIPE/видео.html
It was : Please play along to make this work - read this - "You will choose a man named [your name] who will sit at [your table] where you will be served [read the name of the dish off the cover in front of you]"
"you're doing a pretty good job so far" "well you gave me boba"
It has something to do with the boba
It's a Bribe!
Maybe the top of the drink just had a little sheet with each answer written down. This could explain her tentative answer on the forest question as she worked it out, and more confidence as it went on. Did she look down into her drink? I didn't notice, heh.
I have a theory. I think he just layed down the card with the answer on the table, written on another card. Notice how on 5:16 he slams the table, as if to get Alison's attention, while saying "this one". She then seems to look at the card on the table very intently.
@@ZetHololo I don't think so because with "forest" there are no other cards on the table, and Allison figures out the trick on that word.
No reason it can't be both: Write the first set of single-word answers on the cup, and for phrases have them showing on the discarded cards. Once she's on to the game it's easy to get her to watch for the clues wherever they are.
Completely baffling, but continuing to watch Alyson in 2024 is amazing!
It is the way he holds his hands...the slight angle gets the job done.
The boba tea was there for a reason. It forced Allison to look towards the floor.
After a couple of subtle prompts Allison understands and reads the reflection from the floor.
Simple yet brilliant. Nicely done.
Edit: I did mean podium when I typed floor. English isn't my first language. Thanks for correcting me and improving my vocabulary.
i dont think shes reading it off of the reflection from the floor, but instead the reflection on the podium. still though, i would have never thought of this lol
Good eye , makes sense that he would know the podium is reflective since he’s a returning guest and you can clearly tell that it is really clear when he’s doing the trick
So it was optics all along?
So, Allison fooled Penn and Teller xD
It makes more sense that the cards he put on the desk had the correct things written on them.
That would be the whole point of him “going through” the cards. To make it look random, but it’s actually just an excuse to lay the card on the table for her to read.
I think it's ironic that in the first performance you made teller cry, and in the second it was you shedding tears :]
Guys, the DirecTV disclaimer was obviously a cover-up for showing Alison the dictionary.
haha
It was mis direction
Indeed
😂 1:44 when Alison answers “Sure” it sounded a bit like the mandarin for “yes” so I think that took him aback for a moment.
no?
um, not really
是 is not Mandarin for yes. It's closer to "is." If she could really speak Mandarin, her response would have been hui, or 会, which as a response to the question means "I can."
Extore - fair enough. I didn’t want to go into a big discussion of grammar and foreign speakers of mandarin but I’m sure you’ll agree that primary anglophones who are learning mandarin often struggle with the concept of using verbs to affirm instead of a general-use “yes”. They will often use 是 and 不是 for “yes” and “no” in almost any situation until they get better at it. All I’m saying is that for a small moment he thought she might speak a bit.
I love this routine! It is personal for the volunteer and really has that emotional connection that so many routines lack or ignore. Well played!
Thank you!
How could you not get emotional when you have someone hand you some boba
Just AMAZING!!!!!
Man u are really enthusiastic 🤘✌️✌️ keep doing it as ur heart says ♥️✌️....
Love the emotion when they said you fooled them. Great moment
Such a great, casual style. Impressive, even if frustrating! Good luck, Kevin!
That was fantastic! It seems so simple but yet kind of impossible some how lol had to watch it twice.... great trick!
I love the emotion he showed. He really was grateful and didn't think he would food them at all. Compared to most acts on fool us who know they can fool the guys
To take something personal and give it such a "wow" factor is amazing. Can't wait to see more tricks. This is a great style for you. Keep the emotional connection in your magic. It really sets you apart as a talent.
Your reaction almost made me cry too. Great job man. Keep it up!
No matter what field in the arts, the passion that shines through when someone achieves a goal and can't hold the emotion in. Those moments just make it all worth it. You're a gem Kevin!
Wow somehow missed this for years. What a fun routine. Love seeing your family come out. Both times you were on the some it was just really wholesome stuff.
I came from Esa’s Instagram story, this is amazinggg!!!
Crushed it! Congrats Kevin. Enjoyed it!
I guess the reason why he cries is the hard work he did for Years to get this Achievement and we can not imagine how important this was for Kevin Li.
Respect Bro!!
very grateful for it! thank you
Naww, he just had something in his eye... 😉
It makes me happy to see them happy and so I thank you for fooling those lovely gentlemen.
You can really see how much Teller loves you in this video Kevin! You're so good!
Absolutely awesome act! Can't wait to see more.
More to come! Thanks Denver
The emotion and reaction when you did it is priceless. So happy to you fooled them! Great show!!
Thank you!
You could tell how nervous he was the first time! But what an opportunity at such a young age! Kudos man! So good to see!
From the little I know of Chinese, the Chinese characters were the actual translation of what was written in English and what Allison said. I studied it for three years and it's just as difficult as everyone says, so I'm way impressed that Allison learned it in three seconds! Now I know, the key ingredient was Boba milk tea all along...
:) Boba is one magical drink
but please tell me , that is allison is in this
@@harshdevsharma6397 It's against the rules of the show. They can't use planted audience members or volunteers.
@@henrytawnn8694 ya but the rule is they cant have pre assisted stooges but can have instant stooges
@@harshdevsharma6397 Kevin Li is in the comments, confirming she was not in on this. In a video he even explains why he chose her, because they don't time to set up anything with the host because the only time they see them is on the stage.
What th-? How!? Very nicely done. Got wowed!
Way to go Kevin! I can't wait to see what you come up with in the future! Keep up the Amazing work, I hear Vegas calling your name!
When Kevin asked Allison if she spoke Chinese, I totally thought she responded 是 which really impressed me. Lmao later I figured out she was probably saying "sure"
What does that symbol mean that you thought she responded
@@EikottXD It means "yes" pronounced "Shi"
Damn both your appearances made me cry for totally different reasons! I love that your tricks are sweet, beautiful and kind…not just taking someone’s watch or fake stabbing your hand, but actually well thought out and sentimental as well as focused on you and your life. Wonderful!
There are some magic acts, I don't ever want to know how it was done. I really, really enjoyed how unique and mind-boggling an effect this was.
The emotion of Kevin Li, and others, when they have successfully fooled Penn &Teller is enjoyable to watch. It affirms the years of effort given to perfect the trick and the release of all their tension.
It's so very different from most other magic and so simple too. That you fooled the best is a tribute to your skill!
Brilliant!well done.
Thanks Ron!
Nice! Allison is fun to watch try stuff! Pretty cool magic trick! The older you get.. I believe you'll create very deceptive illusions.. I cant wait to see more of your work!
I love this performer!!! Kevin is easily in my top five Fool Us performers ( I usually like the "old school" magicians, but there is something about this kid that makes him seem like he's been doing this for decades)...I like this routine, but the first one was my favorite...probably because of the emotion the first one brought out in Teller and myself...
Keep reaching for the stars Kevin, I think you are destined for great things!!!
God Speed to you and your family!!!
Thank you Ward~
THANK YOU FOR A VERY ENTERTAINING MAGIC PERFORMANCE. MY FAMILY LIKES YOU AND WANTS TO SEE MORE OF YOU!
I love it when good guys win. Congrats.
So fun watching this show! :D Love the theme and the trick. You are so talented Kevin!
Kevin, I am really impressed with your honest expressions / openness in sharing yourself with the audience, and it was a stellar routine as well.
Thank you Daniel!
Congratulations Kevin !!!
Congratulations. Great routine. Teller was again choked up. Good luck. You proved if you work hard you can achieve anything!!
I remember these suckers that vibrated and when u put them in your mouth you heard music... the level of the tea never goes down. I believe the metal straw is perfect for transferring the vibration and she was suprised to find that it made recognizable sounds when she put it in here mouth... which explains her comment about the straw and her suprised recoil when first "sipping" the tea.
I feel like that would be too risky because the sounds would get picked up on her mic.. but definitely think the tricks lies inside the boba
I just saw you on Valkyrae’s birthday stream! I get chills every time I see your performances. 10/10
I loved it!! Congratulations!! Wishing you nothing but success in your future! Peace & Blessings!
That ending... Well done Kevin!
1. It's not done using reflection. Check his other video on the channel where he does the same trick on their vegas show. He holds the card way too far in front for any reflection to be visible.
2. It's not done using some digital ring either. He confirms that in that same video, but more importantly, he's not wearing it on that vegas show either.
My theory, then, and I think I'm pretty spot-on, is that as he's putting the previous card on the table, he actually puts the answer to the next card next to it as well. Then, it would just be a matter of having that card say "NEXT ANSWER IS: CHICKEN" and Alyson just playing along, which she does really well. Thus, it's a good old "sleigh of hand" trick with a really clever twist!
That was an amazing trick and I can't remember the last time I was so clueless about how it's done. It's truly unique and I think you 100% deserved fooling them. Great job, and subscribed!
TrashLock hah thanks! Your guess is still way off but more magic to come on my page ;)
@@KevinLimagic really it's not it? no answer on the table? i was sure of it because her last answer didn't seem like she was guessing any word. it had to be her reading and the only place she looked was the table
Next Christmas I'd like to have a ride on this "Sleigh of Hand" you describe...
Sounds intriguing!
Wow man, forget the trick, you put me in tears with your reaction at the end, and yes I am awestruck at the relaxed P&T and Allison. I was wondering if this was a hypnotic magic show?
No its not lmfaooooooo
Amazing!
Great video thank you for sharing that emotion with us
Hey Kevin... That was really cool...ive racked my brain over and over and over and i still cant get how you did that... That was truly original and perfectly performed.. You deserve everything you have.worked so hard for...thank you for sharing your culture and entertaining ALL of us.
Thank you! Make sure you're subbed on my page for more magic ;)
@@Dharzhak hey this makes a lot of sense, similar to a talk-box like Peter Frampton uses where you put the tube in your mouth and it's connected to a speaker.
wasnt it just the angle he was holding the card? made it look like he was showing her the chinese side, and maybe he was at points, but at least for a little bit she could see the english. I could be totally off but at least from the recording it definitely looked like that to me.
Wow! Unbelievable delivery! I’ve watched DOZENS of magicians, not just on Penn and Teller’s show, but also with their own online platforms in the past several weeks alone. There are MANY talented performers out there with a variety of style and talents, and they’re almost always very impressive and mind-boggling to watch. I’m particularly impressed by these two men and the two David’s: Blaine and Copperfield (I saw the latter live in Las Vegas, front row seats courtesy of the Bellagio VIP concierge, from about 30-50 feet away at all times!). However, I was also completely blown away by your talent and showmanship! Absolutely BRILLIANT work! It’s not just about the incredible skill involved, but perhaps more importantly in your case is the care that goes into your unique presentation to the audience. This is the main aspect that I believe made Teller get so choked up over your work. As you know, Teller is immensely talented and experienced himself and is considered by many, myself included, to be easily one of the top skilled magicians alive today in terms of both technique and presentation. You both have an incredibly unique style and an incredible amount of nuanced ability that sets you apart from ALL of the rest out there. I think the emotion invoked in Teller’s face is VERY clear proof that you have something that just leaves your audience utterly speechless and in awe of what they have just seen! I have NEVER once seen Teller so moved before! Absolutely astounding and breathtaking work! And you’re so incredibly young to already have such a rare and distinct ability, enough to truly set you apart in Teller’s mind and mine as well! Clearly, a one in a million kind of act from such a truly gifted and brilliant mind! This was an absolute masterpiece! (Technically, I haven’t watched THIS particular video as of yet, I have only watched the one with the Polaroid-style card trick that you did to try to fool the amazing Vegas duo. I was so impressed that I immediately wanted to see more of your work, so I clicked a link to land here for the next illusion. Yet I am already very impressed and moved by the last one!) Spectacular! I will watch this one and others, and I have already subscribed to your channel and look forward to more upcoming videos! Fantastic (literally!) work! Kudos! Keep it up! 😁
Thanks for the kind words! Let me know your thoughts on this one too :)
Really a great show Kevin loved it!!!!! 😀👍😄👍
He is so humble. Tha'ts awesome bro. Congrats.
Kevin, this just proves that you're getting better and better. What a great trick! And I'm a absolutely thrilled for you! I know this was a dream come true for you. I experienced a dream come true at the age of 21, very close to your age I think so I completely relate. Thank you so much for sharing this with us. And congratulations!
Your effects and stories are all so special. You're a master of significant, poignant presentation.
Thank you Harley!
Amazing!!!!!
Fantastic!!!
Kevin is a true magician 👏🏻

Wow well done again you fooled them that time .. you are awesome x
Great routine! Very clever!
I read about you on SGVT and came here. You live near me. Neighbors. That’s a great trick. Fooled me too. I think it’s the hidden messages on the milk tea cover. Lollicup to I Love You. Kidding.
I love this. I am learning basic Mandarin and I was really drawn to this. Thank you Kevin, and well done!
Thanks Christopher! Good luck in your studies!
Honestly that was amazing

Holy crap. How is someone this young so freakishly wholesome? As an armchair cynic you bring out my inner child all over again. Thank you bud !
I actually learned Chinese in my school for 4 years so it was cool to actually know what you were saying as well as the characters.
Thats great!
Same! Haha
Super cool bro. I’m so happy for you.
Incredible!!
