I totally agree. He showed them an old trick with added asian technique. Even in their prime, they could not have done this as smoothly as Daxien did.... And I'm disappointment they didn't say that outright.
@@CalvinSzeMagic Fool Us is also an ad vehicle for magicians, first and foremost. The real reason people go on the show has nothing to do with P&T directly, because both the person(s) on stage and P&T know that the magician(s) are primarily trying to get their act on TV. Outside of casino shows and magic specific venues, there aren't too many places where it is financially viable to get hired for a major show. The tricks that might actually fool P&T are often not the ones that are showy and draw an audience, which is the main point of the show.
You're never going to fool Penn & Teller with one of their signature tricks, but they still loved every moment of this performance, so that's a win in its own right.
Yeah I absolutely enjoyed his performance of it. Sometimes it's simply not about trying to reinvent a trick, but how it's performed that makes all the difference. And besides, he got a new sub out of me. I look forward to seeing his other tricks.
If they knew how he was doing the trick, they would, or should have known how many balls were underneath the pans at any time. Love all 3 of those guys!!! Amazing Talent!
I don't care that they weren't fooled, this was incredible and so much fun to watch, definitely one of the favorite performances I've seen on this show
I honestly didn't think anyone could make this classic old and often-repeated trick come alive again, but you managed to add a new zest to it! Thank you for a very enjoyable performance.
She didn't seem to pay any attention at all since she was like "oh is that what you call it" at the end when he was saying that first thing performing his trick...talk about disrespect for the performer, she acts like a dumb blond.
@hedonismunderstands2469 Her name is Brooke Burk. Not sure what she does now, but she did modeling back in the 2000's. Not sure where Alison went but I imagine she went to band camp. 😂
Ya, I watched it frame at a time and you can definitely see his right hand disappear under the bowl while throwing something.. but.. it's hard to see how he's got enough room to palm two real eggs (and presumably one fake squishy one). But, it's possible he actually slights the two real eggs one at a time just before he cracks em open. In other words, 3 fake eggs on the table, he palms one real egg in his hand as he picks up one of the 3 fake squishy ones, cracks the real one, discards shell and first squishy one, while he palms the 2nd real one, picks up 2nd squishy one, cracks real.. discards shell and 2nd squishy, and then picks up last fake one to start the chicken trick, which he pretty clearly loads from the back edge of the table.
the ending got me completely bamboozled. taking an age-old trick and changing the outcomes is pretty genius....makes people go "oh i know how this goes", then something completely different happens just blows their mind
Thanks,@@lennon1252. I truly wish her well as she's the bestest hostess in the world for a show like this. I'd love to see a photo montage of the many, many facial expressions we saw ranging from happy to sad, astonished, questioning, or in fear for her very life! She was a true asset and I'll miss her.
About her.. i am not from the west.. nor much into movies or TV.. so was unaware of who she is. . But she seems a bit awkward or not at (as much) ease as the previous anchor/ hostess.
@@sailaabI don't like how the old actress used to act like she was dumb or whatnot. Maybe I'm just imagining it, but I feel her "WOW THAT WAS AMAZING, SO COOL OMG I WISH I WAS ABLE TO COMPREHEND THIS" personality she has is fake and she's a lot smarter IRL.
@@ninjaguyYTI mean, that's her role, right? Penn and Teller are in the role of being "savvy", and her role is to be the clueless audience surrogate, even though I'm sure she has picked up a lot over the past several years. It's a show in celebration of magic. She exaggerated her reactions, as do Penn and Teller to some extent, because they want to hype up these magicians, even if they sometimes see through the act.
@@markoshun if they couldn't guess the balls, Technically they got fooled. Just because you "know" how a trick works, doesn't mean you werent tricked, in this case 'fooled" by pure skill.
@@simplearthlingif this counts as fool then everyone with slight of hands has automatic 50% win rate, cuz human eyes can’t see if you did the trick or not
@kwiwj17731 of course, all normal people are "fooled" but the job of Penn and teller is to spot those moves. If they can't spot them, then they are technicallly, "fooled"
The energy and everything is awesome. I would love to see you add more to this routine so it can take more time. I find it so entertaining, and with eggs! I can't imagine the time you practiced! Keep up the great work!
There's two ways to win Fool Us: 1) Getting the trophy 2) Putting on a fantastic performance of something fully known Daxien didn't get the trophy, but he absolutely won with his performance.
It’s very hard to fool P&T with the cups and balls trick. But gosh that was, as Penn said, the best ever version and that even means the clear plastic cup version they did. What an incredible trick and sleight of hand, absolute extraordinary, what a huge talent.
This was not only the best Cups&Balls, it was the funniest ever. Damien, you have such a great character and great humor and a huge talent, it's a pleasure to watch you. Only one chicken at the end was unnecessary, because there was no trick involved and it diminished your art a little bit. Otherwise a perfect routine and I would love to watch a show from you in Austria :)
"Only one chicken at the end was unnecessary, "... it made the show for me! Still, I trust that's valuable as an "expert" level comment. I strongly agree with all the rest.
I know all there is to know about the cups and balls. But this man made that all brand NEW. It was rapid fire, fun, funny, intense, and totally IMPOSSIBLE. I loved it!!
a lot of the magicians they bring on, they know they won't fool them, but P&T like to encourage and bring attention to talented magicans all over the world, and that is neat.
To do the balls and cups in front of penn and teller takes guts, to do it this damn well takes incredible skill. This is one of my favorite tricks, i love slight of hand and i always love seeing new takes on it
Great personality, great magic, and one incredible performance! I would’ve said, “you did the cups and balls so good, we know it wasn’t the cups and balls,” just to give him the damn trophy!
Wow this was fantastic! I’ve watched a lot of acts and you were very entertaining, you have a great attitude, and you have a great sense of humor. I wish you the best of success
so very good and entertaining. funny and charismatic, I trully love that guy and his act! for the fact of fooling them or not, well, the only thing i can say is, watch their face when the 3 eggs appeared under the giant steel cover the last time : they were totally fool and you can clearly see it in their eyes. good job man!
I love you! You are are a true magician. The magic starts just by you walking on stage. That is very rare. Most people do tricks, but you do magic! (didn't fool me either, but I loved it)
no pen and teller trophy but another like and comment beside other many that you already have and received i sure is enought for you to understand you are an amazing magician. congrats
even though i second guessed the ending, the moment the large pans came out and it was eggs.. i still brought out the childlike awe in me, to see the chicken (despite already anticipating it). You finesse in handling the props and some of the misdirection really add stars to the performance.
Several years ago I had the privilege of seeing Penn and Teller live and they performed the cups and balls.....with transparent cups. It was funny and still amazing. I think many of us know how it's done. For many aspiring magicians, it's one of the first serious slight of hand trick they will learn. At least for me, that doesn't matter when I see a version like this done with humor and originality.
You took the cups and balls to a completely different level! I thought it was better than even the performance Penn and Teller did on Late Night with clear cups.
This gentleman was amazing, and very funny, and would love to see more of him doing other magic! I have a good understanding of how cups and balls work and I tried to follow what he was doing and when, and it was impossible! His technique was just perfect, and all of those fast hand movements just made it that more confusing. I still said out loud to myself "where the F--- did that come from???" hahaha I knew he probably wouldn't fool them, but sometimes Penn and Teller just like and just want to be entertained. :-)
@2:00 love the magician code; how Teller knows it's two, but if he says two then it gives away the surprise and "foolness' of the trick for the expected audience
I don't think they're actual "eggs"... Probably foam of some sort because he palms them all in the right hand and quickly puts them under before putting bowl down... It seems he does slight of hand when he cracks the eggs
Dont think he thought he could fool them, he just wanted to show them how good the classics can be!
He’s got other tricks up his sleeve that could potentially fool P&T. But he’s chosen to entertain the audience instead.
Yes ,you can say that again
I totally agree. He showed them an old trick with added asian technique. Even in their prime, they could not have done this as smoothly as Daxien did.... And I'm disappointment they didn't say that outright.
Penn and Teller absolutely know how good the classics can be. They've said it themselves that good ol' cups and balls is a great trick.

居然可以把中文的幽默跟個人特色換成英文，然後也成功傳達出去了！
這個真的不簡單，不是魔術而已❤

他好像有原民血統，厲害，超讚表演👍
其實魔術就是表演精彩最重要 。

而且英文竟然這麼好
英文強幻術強老外傻眼
You're never going to fool Penn & Teller with one of their signature tricks, but they still loved every moment of this performance, so that's a win in its own right.
And his name just got seen by all of the viewers of Fool US, which is the real prize.
Yeah I absolutely enjoyed his performance of it. Sometimes it's simply not about trying to reinvent a trick, but how it's performed that makes all the difference. And besides, he got a new sub out of me. I look forward to seeing his other tricks.
In theory they may know the principle, but during THIS version of the trick, I think they were seriously confused several times.
If they knew how he was doing the trick, they would, or should have known how many balls were underneath the pans at any time. Love all 3 of those guys!!! Amazing Talent!
@@FORDEVR not seeing the move, they know he is doing, is not enough for a trophy.. 😉
I don't care that they weren't fooled, this was incredible and so much fun to watch, definitely one of the favorite performances I've seen on this show
They were fooled, Teller said there was 1 ball inside the cup but there were two. Daxian had already won by @1:53
couldnt agree more, the character the jokes were all too enjoyable to watch a unique cups and balls
@@IUsedToBeAPygmyyou gotta fool them on how the trick is done.
I honestly didn't think anyone could make this classic old and often-repeated trick come alive again, but you managed to add a new zest to it! Thank you for a very enjoyable performance.
It's all about presentation when you do cups and balls. Hannibal does it beautifully, you should check him out.
Slight of hands..
The name of his trick is “三仙歸洞” (
San Xian Gui Dòng), it means "Three Immortals Return to the Cave".😄
omg😆😆🤣🤣
I love this! Not only are his hands extremely fast, but the amount of false moves he made to try and throw Penn and Teller off
The thing is, no matter how fast and how well he does it, they don't even have to see it. Because they know how he does it..
so how does he do it?
Let me guess: With cups and balls
Joking pal, just joking.
@@bongfuhrer
Nice pfp! 🇸🇪
They said in prior seasons that they do have to see the move, even if they can logically deduce the method without seeing the move
stop
It
honestly, this was one of the best performances I've seen on the show. so very well done!
欺騙觀眾本來就不是什麼好事。
全世界都喜愛並享受了你的表演，那才是最終目標！幹得好，恭喜你！
4年前：演三仙歸洞給阿公看
現在：演三仙歸洞給Penn&Teller看
恭喜大仙！
Thats the sort of magic I appreciate, no gimmicks pure skill. On another note Alison has changed a lot since I last saw this program.
😂 Alison was way better.
說真的，這個古老的把戲，居然可以做得如此出神入化真的不簡單~
I miss Alison. She was the best host of the show hands down!
who is this new person? where did alison go?
more likes for joeyjoe pls
She didn't seem to pay any attention at all since she was like "oh is that what you call it" at the end when he was saying that first thing performing his trick...talk about disrespect for the performer, she acts like a dumb blond.
@hedonismunderstands2469 Her name is Brooke Burk. Not sure what she does now, but she did modeling back in the 2000's.
Not sure where Alison went but I imagine she went to band camp. 😂
Alison brought such an authentic vibe to all of her interactions with the guests. This new host has some pretty big shoes to fill.
Penn said it all, to be able to perform the cups and balls trick to them is an extraordinary feat on its own! well done and soo entertaining to watch
This really is the best cups and balls ever. The character performance and performance itself was soooooo good!
The three-egg loading was amazing. Really didn't see it coming. Fabulous performance 👏👏👏
I watched it in slow motion and still cannot figure it out..
He throws them I rekon. And hits to hide the sound. Absurd speed.
Ya, I watched it frame at a time and you can definitely see his right hand disappear under the bowl while throwing something.. but.. it's hard to see how he's got enough room to palm two real eggs (and presumably one fake squishy one). But, it's possible he actually slights the two real eggs one at a time just before he cracks em open.

It's the trick most people know, but not everyone preforms it as good as that. Very well done. Fun, entertaining magic.
這些魔術都看過，一些知名的魔術師，但是大仙幽默的氣質，拉近了觀眾，也使我們被真正「娛樂」到了。
Amazing energy and humor. Just loved the entire performance. Truly was the best version of cups and balls I've ever seen. I really loved it.
Such a fun and perfectly performed routine! Great work, Daxien!
the ending got me completely bamboozled. taking an age-old trick and changing the outcomes is pretty genius....makes people go "oh i know how this goes", then something completely different happens just blows their mind
大仙真的很棒！ 希望持續推出新的作品和演出！
我完全同意你的觀點
網路可以搜到他的斷接指的表演，還有榴蓮三仙歸洞🤣
Nice job! That was a great performance.
This might be the cups and balls trick at heart, but it was performed in a much more advanced fashion.
I miss Allison. outstanding performance my man. loved it.
Where is she?
she left, she wanted to focus on family.@@hightwelve9991
She quit to be with her kids and start a new career.

Magic isn't just magic, it's showmanship, and you showed you have that! Delight to watch
Excellent magic! Clearly the hostess was not paying attention when he said what the trick was called.

Best one for me. First time cups and balls performer made me laugh from within..

I don't think they're actual "eggs"... Probably foam of some sort because he palms them all in the right hand and quickly puts them under before putting bowl down... It seems he does slight of hand when he cracks the eggs
看过大仙的其他视频，讲中文会更自如一些，而且现场与观众的互动会非常有趣，传统的戏法就是要与观众互动，让大家深入其中，这与国外的close up magic有异曲同工之妙，但是更接地气，真正的将传统的cups and balls玩出了新花样！
the way teller looked at penn after he uncovered the chicken he was verry impressed
Great magic! :)
one of the good things of being a fool is that one is able to enjoy
Great performance!
Such a great routine I hope you can bring more great Asian tricks to the world like this
