One of the most astonishing and entertaining magic acts I’ve ever seen. Belgian Magician Laurent Piron stuns Penn & Teller, the audience, and certainly me.

I couldn’t agree more with Penn’s analysis of this ancient magic plot–and how magician Daniel K. improved it immensely. A lot of fun.

Magic To Die For
Spanish magician Miraver does an absolutely astounding act on Penn & Teller Fool Us, featuring colorful dice. As Penn says, it’s half juggling and half magic, but the magic part is really amazing.

Mario Lopez’s Vanishing Salt
Jerry Deutsch would have been thrilled to see this Perverse Magic performance of Mario Lopez. Funny, magical, and the magic seems to be out of the magician’s control. What’s really great about the presentation is the way he sets it up to be a vanish of the salt, and then totally turns it around 180 degrees.

Vanishing and Reappearing Coke
A lovely routine performed by magician David Schwartz on Penn & Teller Fool Us. He puts some great effects together and presents what for me was a very fooling set of magic.

Pretty nice magic trick by magician Sanjeev Vinodh. Once he said the cards could be examined, he fooled me for sure.

“I Don’t Know How…”
As far as I’m concerned, the greatest–and most entertaining–close-up magician I’ve ever seen, Dani DaOrtiz. Penn & Teller are beaten so bad, they don’t even try to figure out Dani’s magic.

Physically Impossible
Sixteen-year old magician Stanley Zhou, originally from China, has audience members, including Penn & Teller, scratching their heads. He does a card effect, the plotline of which is well-known, but which contains elements–especially the finale–which will have even well-posted magic fans “fasten-ated.”

Perception Deception
Magician Ben Seidman with a great effect and one of the most consistently entertaining and funny acts on Fool Us. It doesn’t seem to fool Penn & Teller, but I had no idea what Penn’s clues were there. Seidman claims on his YouTube channel that there were no camera effects involved, and that it could be reproduced live, in which case I’m totally stumped.

Fool Us: Vitaly Beckman
I am proud to say that after watching this very effective and puzzling illusion performed by magician Vitaly Beckman, I then watched it a few more times and came to almost exactly the same conclusion as Penn and Teller.

Quick Change!
This was fun. I count ten changes that Léa Kyle performs on her person, and a bunch more in isolation. As Penn says, quite unusual and accomplished for this kind of act.

Reza: Fool Us
A really great card trick with a strong one-two impact from magician Reza. Even after hearing Penn’s clues, I still had no ideas about how both phases could have been done.
