@@PanicAtTheBen Teller is ten times a better magician than Penn, that's why he always does all the crazy stunts while Penn acts mostly as the presentator. He's still also a great magician, but doesn't come close to Teller.
Penn will often admit that Teller is the better magician. Penn used to be with the circus (seriously) and is a much better showman. That's why they make a good team. Obviously, Penn is still a solid magician, and Teller is better at showmanship than he admits.
@@PanicAtTheBen they are both encyclopedias of magical knowledge. Together they are a perfect duo. Penn is talented at many things but Teller is an elite sleight of hand magician. Penn is the perfect complement because he's loud and creates just enough diversion. They're also not selling "real magic" per se. It's meant to be obvious at times or poke fun at magicians that claim to have super natural powers
Why would they? Penn and Teller are world class magicians, David Blaine's only true talent is hiring the right video editors that can do camera tricks and finding a fake audience that pretends to be amazed.
@@abdelrahmanbaraka6133 it wasn't that hard to understand. David Blane don't preform illusions or slight of hand, he uses camera tricks and fancy edits.
Beautiful beautiful bro, the Only error was from Teller because he wasn't able to replicate the same hard angle. So on the handoff Pen hands over the piece that is already palmed by Teller and hands that to Conan while Teller replaces to Palm, the piece he just cut. That's why the card is destroyed. It was never meant to match up. But playing the 'stump', that little snap on the hand of Teller, on the handoff is Segway for perfect misdirection as Penn directs Conan to show the crowd. (Someone tell the video director he has tickets for their next up coming show for not doing a close up on that ripping error) I highly suspect converging lines of the suits blend all of that. Our eyes do fall to the hand movements since the majority is hard lines or dark gray tones. I get to enjoy it either knowing it or not, like your favorite comedian saying the same joke you've heard him say but it's his delivery so it's fun hearing it again. Just cause you know it doesn't mean you can't enjoy it.
To all those claiming this was a bad trick with bad execution you totally missed the point, the trick is bullshit and they made it very clear side the beginning, the original show is all about exposing bad magicians, or worse, people who think their stuff is real...
I agree, Penn and Teller love to expose bad magician's. That is why they fumbled this trick and you can see the torn piece hand off sooooo clearly. Penn and Teller are pros and I was shocked at first to see such a fumble from then, then you reminded me their show is about "Bullshit" and it now makes sense. See my comment in the main thread. If they wanted to do this trick right, Penn would have the "target" torn piece on him the whole time and swap with a slight of hand as needed - no handoff at all. I love their act. Remember they drove a semi truck trailer over Teller and THEN show us how they did it.
Wow, this is the first time I could immediately see how a Penn & Teller trick was done. The 4 of spades was forced. Then, when Penn hands over the ripped piece to Conan, he switches it with an already ripped piece that matches the card that has been in Tellers mouth the entire time. I assume the destruction of the other ripped card is to prevent the rip lines from being compared, masked as a "voodoo" way to transfer the card through the "concrete"
I mean you know the card has been there the entire time. It's all misdirection and force. If you watch enough Penn & Teller they're surprisingly upfront. I mean they have bits where they literally show you it's a trick. They took the idea of performance to a different level.
I nice easter egg for pen and teller fans, the first card that "would have been selected" when they pretended he changed his mind was the 3 of clubs. It doesn't look as good for tricks where you tear a corner off, though.
Its a damn shame Bullshit didn't last nearly as long as it should have. It was such a good series, especially the random tangents. Like the UFO episode where it went from UFOs > UFO conventions > crazy people > anal probing > sex toys > UFOs.
I love the one where they went to a hippie convention and got them to sign a petition to ban dihydrogen monoxide (H²O) "Gets into your fruit, _and you _*_can't_*_ get it out!_ Causes excess perspiration, salivation, and urination!"
Wonderfully performed, both the smoothness of the trick, the voodoo mockery and the chaotic banter and ‘theatre’ of the act!! The switch was sublime. (Might have also spied a little ‘force’ too). LONG LIVE PENN AND TELLER!!
For sure! Only way it could have been better would be if anyone but Conan was sitting there. His stupid attempts here to get laughs with his childish quips illustrate exactly why he lost The Tonight Show.
1) 3:22 There are two 4 of spades cards. The first one is already in Teller's mouth at the start of the show. Its corner is already torn and the corner is in Penn's left hand jacket pocket. The second 4 of spades is on the top of the deck. 2) 3:30 As Teller fans out the cards, notice the sequence: 8 of clubs, 9 of hearts, ace of hearts, 3 of hearts. 3) 3:37 When Conan tells Teller to stop, both times Penn says "the next card", because Conan is not allowed to choose the face up card, since the face up card will never be the 4 of spades. 4) 4:00 Notice the card sequence as Teller reveals the cards one by one: 8 of clubs, 9 of hearts and the ace of hearts... same as when Teller fanned out the cards. However, the next card should be the 3 of hearts, right? But it's not... it is revealed to be the 4 of spades. Teller was likely second dealing (dealing the second card from the top, and leaving the four of spades as the top card the entire time... a quick search on RUclips will show you a lot of very skilled people demonstrating this). 5) 4:12 Teller tears the card in a very distinctive way as Penn reaches into his left jacket pocket and palms the pre-prepared torn corner into his left hand. 6) 4:20 Penn pretends to take the newly torn corner from Teller and hand it to Conan, but Teller actually palms that corner and Penn hands the pre-prepared corner to Conan. They look identical to us from far away simply because they have been torn in a very similar distinctive manner. 7) 4:30 Penn holds up the torn card to Conan, and Conan holds up the corner, but Penn doesn't allow them to get very close. You can clearly see him pull away as Conan holds up his corner to Penn's card. This is because Penn doesn't want Conan to notice that they will not match perfectly since they are the two parts of completely different cards. If Conan had noticed, he typically would have made a joke like, "Hey, these don't match! But let's just pretend I don't notice that!" Unlike Letterman, Conan isn't one to play dumb when he sees a hole in a bit. 8) 4:44 While reaching for the tongs with his left hand, Teller puts his right hand (which is currently hiding the corner he just tore off) into his pocket and deposits the card corner there. You can see him stuffing it in with a few extra movements. 9) 6:28 Unlike earlier when Penn held one part and Conan held the torn corner and Penn didn't allow them to get too close to each other, this time the two parts are both in Conan's hand and a very tight closeup shows how perfectly they match. It's magic!
Close. The corner that conan gets and the corner that teller rips are not similarly ripped. Notice the 1st cards corner was cleanly ripped but the second one had a triangular point to it.
@@jonassimon2412 To be fair, most street performers don't allow you to get an HD close up on camera. They'll show it and move it around so as to show everyone in the audience
I still cringe thinking about their respective episode on the climate crisis and passive smoking. I wonder how their views have changed in the meantime…
@@Lumpiluk actually I watched an interview where Penn said that he wished they'd never done the passive smoking episode and his views had completely changed.
Well cable was not a great place to be back then - but now every television has it , and honestly, some of the most popular tv shows today aren’t on broadcast OR cable. Like Conan’s will be soon as it turns into an HBO Max show.
Its a mixed bag. This trick was lame. I think anyone with any knowledge of card magic knew the trick, from the moment they said cards were involved. Its the delivery and predicate for their tricks, that make them fun.
Yep. The greatest duo in the history of magic. I'm delighted that I was... unwittingly...on Penn & Teller's Bullsh*t in the Bottled Water episode. I had the agua de Coolio. True.
if you replay it and pay attention you would see that when teller "accidentally" hands the card to penn he switches the ripped piece to match the one preloaded card in his mouth
@@XinxFlenler I believe Penn had 4 stashes of cards on him. His left hand reached to the spades pile and got the 4th one. The skill and practice is what gets me. If I’m right (big If but hear me out) then he was palming it in his left hand before the transfer. Not their best move but still damn impressive.
They never shuffled, Teller knew the order of the cards and was counting. They had preset cards to stop at, short, medium, long, and Penn had a torn version of each in his pocket. My guess
Penn cant help exposing the tricks of the trade... even on a late night show. I don't think it's ever been done! Whatchu talkin bout Conan you saw it in rehearsal and loved it!
@Marie Whitbread What are you talking about? Damn! Where is levity and whimsy with people on the internet? Did you read the original posters comment? He joked that Teller's shoulders must be big for CARRYING the CEMENT BLOCK on his head, and I flipped the idea by insinuating he was calling Penn a cement block. As the term to carry means that a skilled person takes an unskilled through something to completion. I mean it really can't be taken any other way.
Great trick, super easy. Penn took the ripped piece of card from Teller, gave Connan a different ripped piece, the one that was actually in Teller's mouth. Sleight of hand.
@@gabrielholes4642 I think it's a cheeky signal that the torn piece and card match and also were not the same ones from before, not that I'd expect many in the audience to believe they actually reconstituted a burned card.....Those kinds of humorous riffs like the transparent cups & balls have been staples of their act, Penn has often said that people at magic shows understand they are tricks and no one should believe they actually witnessed something like a lady being literally sawed in half, at least since the 20th century. Swapping out the ripped piece to give to Conan was probably the easy part and second nature to them, but making sure he ended up with the 4 of Spades and making it look effortless was less easy.
I guess slightly differently. The one in Teller's mouth has been there since the start. Penn gave Conan a small piece that matches the card in Teller's mouth (see the switch around 4:26). The sleight of hand is in counting the card from the deck. The four of spade is a certain position in the deck. After dealing the cards on top, Teller keeps four of spade always the top card and deals the cards below it.
@@philsburydoboy Yep. I think there are compilation videos out there showing this. It's not s dig, though. I mean, these guys often show how magic works, so it's not like we're finding out they are some sort of frauds. I consider it a sort of easter egg for fans to find. 😉
For my Dad’s 80th bday I booked Penn to do a video bday greeting for him. He was so funny & did such an amazing job. My Dad couldn’t believe it. He loves them.
04:07 Penn returns half the deck into his right pocket but places the remainder of the deck into his left pocket. This is when he takes out the prepared corner and keeps it in his left hand. 04:25 Penn swaps the prepared corner from his left hand. He is pretending he's taking the ripped corner from Teller but he's in fact passing his prepared corner to Conan. Teller vanishes the corner he had just ripped off in his right hand. Notice how they don't really compare if the ripped corner he gave Conan matches the ripped card. 04:44 when Penn yells at Teller to get out the tongs, he proceeds to 'search' for it in both his pockets, because he has obviously forgotten in which pocket the tongs are. He's in fact vanishing the new ripped corner in his right pocket while taking out the tongs from the left one. They burn the new ripped card whose ripped corner is in Teller's riht pocket. Then they break the concrete revealing the old prepared ripped card that has been there all along and match it with the old prepared ripped corner Penn has passed to Conan. Of course, there was force. You're welcome.
What's so great about Penn & Teller, is that even when they do "simple" tricks like this where you can see the moves they make that force the 4 of spades to be chosen, and the swapping of the cut off card corner, it doesn't matter because their showmanship is 2nd to none and it's enjoyed just as much, if not more than the actual trick.
i love this trick because its so easy to do in fact that card could've shown up any where they wanted but its was fun to have it under a concrete block
@@MetalGuitarTimo slight of hand the card was determined from the start and the card he tore up probably had pre cut markings which is why its perfectly exact
@@MetalGuitarTimo Yeah, but they don't give Conan the last card they deal, they give him the one on the top of the deck, which is yet to be seen and they can place whatever they want on the top with a little slight of hand.
Penn: IT FITS EXACTLY!!! Me: yeah coz you switcherood at 4:25 🙄 ... But wait!? How'd he know it'd be the 4 of spades?🤔 Well it was on the top of the deck the whole time... He was never actually picking up the top card; not until Conan stopped. Neat slight of hand to force the card. Weird thing is if I had seen this before P&T fool is, I wouldn't have a clue. Thanks Penn and Teller; y'all really made magic more interesting
I was on stage with Penn and Teller once. We rehearsed, I had one simple job……and I blew it! I blew it! Penn tried to save it by throwing the blind back on the cage….but I blew it. My only chance for them to save me from my college drudgery by asking me to join them on the road.
Wow for the first time I could tell exactly how a pen and teller trick was done before they explained it. Card was already in his mouth torn in the specific way. You can see the pen marks tracing out the "tear"
I t not just their Magic I really have little time for magic most of the time, but their personality in showman ship. Magic any old foul can learn to do ,but the showman ship take year of work to get right. Every time I see these guy they rock.
@Marie Whitbread i will reiterate. I've met him in person. I know how tall I am (6'7" on the nose). He was slightly taller than me. Maybe he's shrunk a bit as this was almost 20 years ago, maybe he was wearing thick soled shoes, but I think the internet is wrong sometimes.
Wow after 45 years Teller is finally out of the concrete
53 he's been in concrete, finally out.
80 years pass by flying huh?
He must be glad. 99 years is a long time.
I can’t believe anyone can sit in that thing for 135 years
He looks pretty good considering he'd been in that cement for two and a half centuries.

Well, it was a lot less accepted back then.
Yeah, and I bet that's why he's so short too.

Dude same. I about laughed up a lung
yeah thats epic ^^

He said 'special move' not 'voodoo move'. Mandela effect.

Its a mixed bag. This trick was lame. I think anyone with any knowledge of card magic knew the trick, from the moment they said cards were involved. Its the delivery and predicate for their tricks, that make them fun.
@@nobody-tj1mvTrue. And they tried to use slight of hand when Teller was tearing the corner of the card and Penn told him to hurry up
Yep. The greatest duo in the history of magic. I'm delighted that I was... unwittingly...on Penn & Teller's Bullsh*t in the Bottled Water episode. I had the agua de Coolio. True.
i loved that episode!
if you replay it and pay attention you would see that when teller "accidentally" hands the card to penn he switches the ripped piece to match the one preloaded card in his mouth
Okay but how did they force the 4 of spades?
Other than the obvious of answer that the whole magic show was scripted
@@TheItchyDani3l I mean forcing cards is a pretty common magic thing, I have no idea how they do it, but it's pretty common.
@@XinxFlenler I believe Penn had 4 stashes of cards on him. His left hand reached to the spades pile and got the 4th one. The skill and practice is what gets me. If I’m right (big If but hear me out) then he was palming it in his left hand before the transfer.
Not their best move but still damn impressive.
They never shuffled, Teller knew the order of the cards and was counting. They had preset cards to stop at, short, medium, long, and Penn had a torn version of each in his pocket.
My guess
@@hotmetalslugs Teller still had the piece he ripped in his hand and stashed it in his pocket when he reached for the tongs
I love that I know how this is done, while it's being done, and I still enjoy it.
And this is, why we're gonna miss the show. Any other show, where something like this would fly?
Penn cant help exposing the tricks of the trade... even on a late night show.
I don't think it's ever been done!
Whatchu talkin bout Conan you saw it in rehearsal and loved it!
seen these gentlemen live years ago, just great showmen.
"Watch the magic transference, as the spirit of the ash moves through the concrete."
Considering conan is really tall then i can't imagine how much of a monster Penn looks like in person, he makes conan look of normal size
Man,, how powerful Teller's shoulders are to carry that size of a cement block!
Its a baked fake block
and phenomenal ears to hear through that block and earphones on him...
Don't insult Penn like that, he holds his own, Teller doesn't have to carry that hard.
@Marie Whitbread What are you talking about? Damn! Where is levity and whimsy with people on the internet? Did you read the original posters comment? He joked that Teller's shoulders must be big for CARRYING the CEMENT BLOCK on his head, and I flipped the idea by insinuating he was calling Penn a cement block. As the term to carry means that a skilled person takes an unskilled through something to completion. I mean it really can't be taken any other way.
Great trick, super easy. Penn took the ripped piece of card from Teller, gave Connan a different ripped piece, the one that was actually in Teller's mouth. Sleight of hand.
I'm just wondering why there was a pencil line following the tear on the card in teller's mouth?
@@gabrielholes4642 I think it's a cheeky signal that the torn piece and card match and also were not the same ones from before, not that I'd expect many in the audience to believe they actually reconstituted a burned card.....Those kinds of humorous riffs like the transparent cups & balls have been staples of their act, Penn has often said that people at magic shows understand they are tricks and no one should believe they actually witnessed something like a lady being literally sawed in half, at least since the 20th century.
Swapping out the ripped piece to give to Conan was probably the easy part and second nature to them, but making sure he ended up with the 4 of Spades and making it look effortless was less easy.
I guess slightly differently. The one in Teller's mouth has been there since the start. Penn gave Conan a small piece that matches the card in Teller's mouth (see the switch around 4:26). The sleight of hand is in counting the card from the deck. The four of spade is a certain position in the deck. After dealing the cards on top, Teller keeps four of spade always the top card and deals the cards below it.
After watching fool us I can say they could give Luke a run for his money
These guys are truly the best. Masters of magic and comedy.
Magicians in the future are going to talk about Penn & Teller the way Penn & Teller talk about Houdini.
Legendary performance

Owooo!!! I am keeping it downloaded!!! This is hilarious!! I want to see it again and again!!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
When Conan said ‘stop’ for the first time, the card was the three of clubs
That's funny because they've done tricks where the 3 of clubs is the card.
I dont get it. What is the significance of the 3 of clubs?
@@the_original_Bilb_Ono it is Penn's favorite card
@@philsburydoboy Yep. I think there are compilation videos out there showing this. It's not s dig, though. I mean, these guys often show how magic works, so it's not like we're finding out they are some sort of frauds. I consider it a sort of easter egg for fans to find. 😉
Do you think that's an Easter egg for the real fans? I hope so.
Iove that you could see the pencil marks at the end.
I doubt it actually gave anything away, but it was a nice touch.
6:28 - you can see the 'pencil mark' that was drawn over the 'ripped' or 'tear' portion of the card to match conan's torn part. LOL !!!
at 4:25 you can see then exchanging the pieces
At 6:52 mark the video ends
@@Etabobable it depends if you live in the north hemisphere or south.
@@LeandroMarquesLJM right, because the length of the video changes for different time zones. Why weren’t you cast for Sherlock?
@@Etabobable they really tried, but I wasn't available. Too much time working at CERN.
Always love the shenanigans of these two ! Been watching them for decades 😆
2:45 Penn exposes late night television 😂
For my Dad’s 80th bday I booked Penn to do a video bday greeting for him. He was so funny & did such an amazing job. My Dad couldn’t believe it. He loves them.
04:07 Penn returns half the deck into his right pocket but places the remainder of the deck into his left pocket. This is when he takes out the prepared corner and keeps it in his left hand.
04:25 Penn swaps the prepared corner from his left hand. He is pretending he's taking the ripped corner from Teller but he's in fact passing his prepared corner to Conan. Teller vanishes the corner he had just ripped off in his right hand. Notice how they don't really compare if the ripped corner he gave Conan matches the ripped card.
04:44 when Penn yells at Teller to get out the tongs, he proceeds to 'search' for it in both his pockets, because he has obviously forgotten in which pocket the tongs are. He's in fact vanishing the new ripped corner in his right pocket while taking out the tongs from the left one.
They burn the new ripped card whose ripped corner is in Teller's riht pocket. Then they break the concrete revealing the old prepared ripped card that has been there all along and match it with the old prepared ripped corner Penn has passed to Conan. Of course, there was force. You're welcome.
What's so great about Penn & Teller, is that even when they do "simple" tricks like this where you can see the moves they make that force the 4 of spades to be chosen, and the swapping of the cut off card corner, it doesn't matter because their showmanship is 2nd to none and it's enjoyed just as much, if not more than the actual trick.
Conan:“You’re on cable, we are not” … years later…
i love this trick because its so easy to do in fact that card could've shown up any where they wanted but its was fun to have it under a concrete block
Love the pencil on the card @6:29. Instructions to the intern on where to cut the card. :P
yeah I notice it too
@Cleo Valeriano Everyone report the above reply
That's actually ink inside the card. Tear any playing card, Pokemon heard, MtG card, you'll have the same mark.
Comedy and magic, doesnt get old
5:31 THAT'S when the real magic happened. *wink, wink*
Great to see them on the Conan O'Brien Show
The card trick is so basic and silly, but the way they present it is everything
how does it work?
@@MetalGuitarTimo slight of hand the card was determined from the start and the card he tore up probably had pre cut markings which is why its perfectly exact
@@Corv0xe I think they actually also replaced the corner that he tore off with with the one that matched exactly before handing it to Conan.
@@Corv0xe but conan was allowed to chose from pens hand too.. so he was involved maybe?
@@MetalGuitarTimo Yeah, but they don't give Conan the last card they deal, they give him the one on the top of the deck, which is yet to be seen and they can place whatever they want on the top with a little slight of hand.
Of all the penn & teller sketches or acts I've seen this seemed to be the dullest one but I still love these two dudes
They werent as smooth at this one i saw him hand conan the corner of a different card n palm the one he tore off... still good tho
You can also see some pencil lines around the torn out bit on the card in teller’s mouth.
@@graemevanderjagt17 I saw that too I was wondering if that was pencil marks or just like shadows or something
saw their show in Las Vegas. It's amazing. I even got to participate.
oh, those fertile fields of bull bleep.
they truly span every inch from coast to coast. bleeping bleep!
Can't believe Teller's been in concrete for 523 years already!
Ah yes, Penn & Teller: Bullshit will go on forever. I'm really enjoying the new episodes.
He was just bullshitting you
I love to see card tricks.
I hope they upload more Penn & Teller appearances
The chosen card would have been the Ace of Hearts without "intervention" lol ;)
Penn and Teller are so great. I love Bullshit and everything they stand for.
Love P&T. i have tickets for their latest tour and it's been put back to 2023 :-/ :-(
Penn: IT FITS EXACTLY!!!
Me: yeah coz you switcherood at 4:25 🙄
... But wait!?
How'd he know it'd be the 4 of spades?🤔
Well it was on the top of the deck the whole time... He was never actually picking up the top card; not until Conan stopped. Neat slight of hand to force the card.
Weird thing is if I had seen this before P&T fool is, I wouldn't have a clue.
Thanks Penn and Teller; y'all really made magic more interesting
Penn & Teller are the GOATs
You can see the trace line on the card.
This is a great clip. Loved the show when it was on.
Only a magician would be classy enough to wear Doc Martens with a suit.
I love how you can see on the card that comes out of Teller's mouth, to outline of where it needed to be cut. LOL
Not gonna lie, best part of the trick is Teller smashing the tongs against his block of "cement" xD
That was my favorite part.
Thanks to watching many episodes of "Fool Us", I actually knew immediately how they did it. Cool.
I was on stage with Penn and Teller once. We rehearsed, I had one simple job……and I blew it! I blew it! Penn tried to save it by throwing the blind back on the cage….but I blew it. My only chance for them to save me from my college drudgery by asking me to join them on the road.
I'm sorry to hear that! At least you had a chance and it was probably entertaining for everyone there
you would probably not get the chance anyways have done this kind of thing many times too
"I don´t think it´s ever been done"
"Well we did it on rehearsal, you saw it" 😆
Conan & Penn would actually make great running mates! 2024!
Penn has some pipes on him. He can really go loud without going higher.
Wow for the first time I could tell exactly how a pen and teller trick was done before they explained it. Card was already in his mouth torn in the specific way. You can see the pen marks tracing out the "tear"
Not how they did it lol
Idk if you are being serious or just kidding. The marks are there to make it obvious how the trick was done
I t not just their Magic I really have little time for magic most of the time, but their personality in showman ship. Magic any old foul can learn to do ,but the showman ship take year of work to get right. Every time I see these guy they rock.
The most amazing thing was that the card was not the three of clubs
Watching this starting at the trick on 0.5x speed makes it seem like Penn/Conan are either drunk or high...or both
Teller has really came out of his shell
Their show that "will last forever" was gone far too soon. We still need you!
Penn looks so massive sitting on that sofa.
Or a really small sofa.
I'm met him. I'm 6'7" and he's taller than me, probably 6'8" or 9"
@Marie Whitbread i will reiterate. I've met him in person. I know how tall I am (6'7" on the nose). He was slightly taller than me. Maybe he's shrunk a bit as this was almost 20 years ago, maybe he was wearing thick soled shoes, but I think the internet is wrong sometimes.
