      Similar to when Daniel Madison was on and revealed he performed his magic in a way that would be obvious to see from their perspective.
      He said he knew he would get more exposure by them "outing" him if you will then by fooling them
      I feel Dani may have been doing something similar here.

Which is what Chris is saying in some of his commentary.
      Dani is several levels above everybody and his techniques are unapproachable by most magicians, let alone non-magic types.

    The best thing about this performance is that it wasn't even supposed to happen. Bear in mind that Dani is not a public performer, his entire career now is teaching other magicians; he doesn't appear on TV, he doesn't do live shows - he's an educator.
    So Dani didn't apply to be on Fool Us, he was just there that day to support a friend who was due to perform. Mike Close saw him and knew who he was and, according to Penn, practically begged Dani to perform something for the cameras. Dani agreed, and that lead to the clip we're all watching right now.
    Consider for a moment how truly insane this is. The best performance that has ever been shown on Fool Us was a totally impromptu trick from someone who wasn't even supposed to be there, and it nevertheless blew the roof off the theatre and left both Penn and Teller utterly speechless (or in Teller's case, involuntarily speechless.)
    Dani is hands down the greatest card magician who ever lived!

  • @MagicPeaceLove
    @MagicPeaceLove Год назад +173

    Appreciate the discussion. I can also confirm Dani was on the Fool Us set helping another magician when the producers begged him to come on and do *something.* This performance is absolutely an example of a very high level of mastery disguised as random chaos (sort of a "Drunken Master" style). It's true it was mostly "impromptu" in the sense he didn't know what he would do leading up to the ending, though he knew he would end with The Ritual. But of course, being a master magician Dani can just "wing it" the way a great jazz musician "wings it" when he jams. I saw Dani do something similar a few years back with 5 borrowed decks at a magic convention; that time, he destroyed a room full of some of the most elite card magicians on earth. For me, one of the many pleasures of this clip is watching Alyson -- who has seen a LOT of magic over the last 10 years -- also be completely enchanted and gobsmacked by Dani.

      I like how he uses his “poor English” as part of his act with them; I’m no magician but it seems to me that he was using that as a bit of misdirection even though his English was clearly understood by me and I have bad hearing. I dunno if it’s all an act or if that’s truly who he is, but his personality during this video makes him seem like he is not only friendly and kind, but a blast to be around. I think he’s the guy at the dinner table that has every guest choking on their food and drinks from laughter.

    (I had some thoughts as to how he performed it.)
    He replied! (Which he didn’t need to)
    And he helped confirm to me something which I thought was the method (I was close.. lol )
    The fact that he would even make time to interact with me - just blew my mind.
    Not only is he an inspirational card magician, his actions and character has helped remind me that there are still good men out there in the world.

Small other parts are obvious (but just little flourishes for the audience really). For the main trick Dani has at least six methods (and possibly as high as twenty!) so they'd just be guessing at one or the other, as they didn't catch it, and that isn't really fair.
      Basically they knew what was going on, but they didn't know exactly how, plus quite a lot of the routine is amazing 'Jedi mind tricks' (Dani must have multiple back-up ideas if any of these failed) - and they can't bust him on that!

    Dani does create an actual magical feeling inside when you watch him work. I genuinely felt like a kid again, it was wondrous. What I love is how completely NATURAL and relaxed his magic is. I really hate seeing magic where the magician grips the deck tightly and does awkward moves covering the cards and it just feels so stilted and bleh. I watched Dani's act and for the first time thought "I don't want to know how this is done because I choose to believe we witnessed real actual magic'.
    I also love how much psychology and mentalism goes into his performance, but it doesn't look like mentalism. It's perfect. His verbal skills, his crowd control, his doing small things in off-beat moments. Absolutely wonderful.
    And finally, the appearance of chaos. The effect isn't chaotic, but the way the cards are messy and are thrown around, it looks like even Dani doesn't know where the cards are but he somehow wills the cards to be in the right place when the time is right. Superb.

    There are not a lot of people as knowledgeable as you about magic who can articulate their thoughts so well and make for an intriguing commentary. So yes Chris. Please continue this kind of format. I don't care which magician you react to. It can be more fool US stuff too but this was the highlight of my day. The performance along with your commentary made it incredible.

    I am Canadian, so you know what i'm about to say is sincere.
    I was nervous at the start of the video, because I thought a man that I admire and respect, was about to do a "How the sausage is made" magic revealed video.
    What I got was two-fold in that I got an "appreciation" video from a subject matter expert, and treated to some amazing magic!
    I have been a deliberate "Interested Observer" type of spectator since my youth reading up on Houdini and other magic types.
    I refuse to partake, because I don't want to lose the wonderment of it all, that I have had since my childhood.
    Again, was worried this video was going to do that, instead I am going away amazed and Thankful to our host.
    Keep doing what you do and ignore the urge to "go do photography" . . you're where you need to be !
    Nicely done my friend! Great Vid !!!!

    I loved this performance, and even though I’d already watched it multiple times, I still enjoyed watching again here with you and your comments.
    I’ve just recently really started falling in love with Dani’s magic performances and teaching. It took me a little while to really start getting it because of the language barrier; especially when it came to his lessons. But the more I watched and listened it has become easier for me to naturally follow what he’s saying. Even his Spanish performances are entertaining even though I speak no Spanish at all, but it makes me want to learn Spanish just to enjoy more of his magic.

    I agree 100% with your comment that Dani has surpassed Juan and is now probably the best card magician of all time. Was so glad and excited when I saw his name pop up on the show. So intelligent and just makes everything he does look so easy. Beautiful to watch him perform and just control all aspects of everyone around the table. Amazing. Also I enjoyed your reaction video and agree not something to do often over all the episodes to date I can think of maybe 1-2 other performances truly worthy of reacting too like this but I don’t know. This performance was just so pure.

    I saw a Lecture by Dani and it's incredible something very interesting he says, is that he plays this character and sells it really well where he is just as confused and astonished by his own effects, which makes the audience mirror them. Adding that element of controlled chaos, really makes you think for a seconds that maybe he truly doesnt know whats happening either. Ergo his constant " I don't know how. . . but"

    Dave,
    I'm a big fan of your show. Sometimes in life we don't know when we are living through special experiences. Then it is made clear later. I used to live in Manhattan and around the corner from me was a magician. He hung out at a bar I used to go to. One night, I walked in and he was performing tricks for the customers. That man was Derrick Dingle. Recently, I heard Michael Vincent say what an influence Derrick was on his career and over the years I've come to realize just what a foundational character he was. I knew both him and his wife and visited their apartment on a couple of occasions. RIP Derrick.

It is not normal. Also, when she had to say it out, her eyes were turning to the upper right corner, as she was making it up now, instead of the left, where our memory is located. If you ask a person about what happened, and looks to the right ... lying.

    Chris, thank you for doing this.
    I’ve been a fan of Penn and Teller since they did a bit on SNL where Teller just walked like it was 1920 and lit a cigarette. Then they redid it from the other angle and Penn described how every ordinary move was, in fact, brilliant slight of hand. They proved that they weren’t out there to “do magic”, but to demonstrate the ART of magic. They did the cups and balls with clear cups, AND explained the trick, AND it was 10x better than anything else I’d ever seen, because I was amazed at the cleverness but also the SKILL behind it.
    Dani’s card handling is so brilliant here, and SUCH a joy - but hearing your own commentary and adoration made it that much better because it helped me appreciate, again, the incredible skill and joy behind slight of hand, and that joy is always welcome.
