Really shocked these slight of hand masters couldn't get it.
He's just *that* good!
I don't think there's any doubt that they'd be able to see it watching it on video like this, it was more than obviously framed. The brilliance was behind using the well known predictable gag as distraction, they were just set off guard.
To be absolutely fair. We were given a prime angle and a close up. It's sort of hard to have your senses redirected by a magician when the camera starts shoving it in your face. Especially with this trick in particular. The camera was definitely not kind to this one.
What nobody is getting is that the gross-out factor is _part_ of the misdirection. An old master like Teller was probably in a (thinking 'that ain't a classy move for a magic act; he should leave that part out' and 'geez what's he going to do next, offer me the glass..?!') mood. Cognitively, it smothers the load.
Teller is too kind. He drank all milk just to act like a regular audience member, but I'm sure he knew the magician would spit out the milk. In fact I think he had Teller and Allison there because he thought he'd get Allison with the milk but not Teller, and then he'd get Teller with the cookie.
I agree
Also, I think Penn wouldn't be that kind, he would spit the milk. "Penn, you honestly scare me".
*Whenever Teller or Penn is called up to be a participant, they always go into "random audience" mode. They take that opportunity to examine things up close, but they will never embarrass or ruin someone's trick. That's not the spirit of the show.*
@I don't think so! that's the magic, it's a lot easier to notice things when you're not on the stage. If you're there yourself, you're not thinking clearly. that's how most magic is done, misdirection.
@@SethiozProject isnt that what Penn has preached for the last 20 years. Misdirection.
Teller was staring right at him when he loaded the second cookie.
But it was covered and it looked natural.
Yeah, he was a tough one to get past.
The cookie load was so clean
The funny thing is that it was dirty as crap. And they still missed it!! And Teller was staring at him from 5 inches! :D Second time you watch it you will never be able to miss it, he is just so clumsy. But it worked like a charm :) And
Phrasing
@@penkatadrums it was dirty but he cleaned it up nicely
wow for real that was how
SO DIRTY! Teller just looked away at the wrong time because Chris started talking. He even thought they figured it out right away when Penn says let's talk about the cookie. Chris says, " You mean the one Teller just ate?" With a sly grin. He figured Penn saw it.
Yeah that was outstanding misdirection by Chris. The trick is so so so basic that you don't even think about it while watching it
He fooled them by convincing them there was more to the trick than there is.
Years later and this is still one of my most favorite 'Fool Us' performances. The misdirection was so strong yet so obvious in hindsight that you can't help but be in awe. It's beating P&T in their own game right in their faces. I can only imagine how hard they were kicking themselves after the show. Amazing 😄
First sensible comment i've read about this. Everyone is all "oh that was so easy to spot, I don't know how they missed it". When we can be sure most people can't and didn't catch it at first, even if indeed its so obvious IN HINDSIGHT. Awesome performance and well deserved trophy IMO.
I agree , this is so simple yet so incredible , his laugh is timed so right and is so organic. I honestly don't think anyone noticed it from the first time.
@9:16 i heard Allison saying" Do we need to call your wife" 😂😂😂😂 to check how skilled he was with mouth..😂😂
😲 Allisonnnn 🤣🤣🤣
Penn: how skilled are u with your mouth Alison: wow Alison was interested
Penn's weakness is that he always looks for the most complicated way.
i know
Seriously it was so obvious
Occam’s razor..search it to understand..
@@fatheruvthor8089 was it ?
Yes fr
I bet when they looked back at this they face-palmed so hard. Ha
I'm sure they did. The fact that Teller and the host are both looking at him the moment he does it, and doesn't even notice it, goes to show the brilliance of masking sleight of hand in the most mundane fashion such that you don't expect the sleight to be there at all.
Lmao
Nah. They like magic, they like magicians. They've said many times that fooling them isn't important, showing cool entertaining magic is.
Penn and Teller must have felt quite embarrassed when they watched this back
It was so egregiously obvious (on rewatch), yet they completely failed to register it because he tricked them into not expecting it Legit fooled them like kids with the simplest misdirection & sleight
I'm sure they did
nah they just wanted him to perform for them in vegas , they liked his act
It was such a simple load-in but the misdirection was executed perfectly to where they were unable to notice it
My God. The sheer balls of sneaking it in front of Teller.
I have to say, that's one of the best foolings I've seen. If you watch it back, it's blindingly obvious, but first time it's so natural you never even see it.
Exactly. I was thinking the same thing!
Agreed.he proved that a simple and basic trick can fool Penn & teller .😂
Yeah... no, i,ve seen it i mean the Oreo in his mouth was so obvious and the nail too
Whatched it wtf magic, secobd time ohhh you son of a bitch.
It was really effective misdirection. The actual trick of the cookie appearing was so unexpected and the moment the loading happens seems so natural and unrelated to anything. It's really quite brilliant. People rewatching this while looking for the loading will see it as the plain and simple action that it was and feel underwhelmed but the thing is, this is magic in its purest form. We all watched it happen plain as day and none of us caught it, even Penn and Teller. I will always be more impressed by magic like this than slick slight of hand or clever mechanical functions.
Can't believe Teller didn't see the cookie load, it was so obvious lol, they'll be kicking themselves watching replays of this.
just brilliant how easy he gets the cookie in his mouth by missdirection
It's hard to believe that single simple move just fooled them!!! This proves that a trick does not need to be complicated in order to be effective... Nicely done.
Agreed, on both points. Thanks for watching.
Right! You just have to get away with one trick
The fact that he actually got away with such a simple trick. Well played sir.
What's great about this is he makes the load-in immediately after making a joke. You're mind is in the process of understanding and laughing at the joke that it doesn't focus on the split second he makes the obvious move. It's the classic misdirect.
his face/mouth looks very different after the load-in.
It was so obvious on my first time watching it that when it got to their guess, I thought it was going to be the nail that stumped them and not the cookie, despite the title of the video.
oh man that misdirection was ingenious lol, it was insanely apparent in the video what he did
The real key to this trick was bringing Teller on stage (Teller's better at spotting sleight of hand) and forcing him to his right by not breaking eye contact with Penn. Sneaky stuff. Very well planned and executed.
actually penn is far far more into and adept at slight of hand. teller is more misdirection magic.
Excellent call. I agree 100%. Penn is more, like he said, Carney trash. Teller is more the "Magician". So having Teller right next to him caused Tellers POV to be from the magicians eyes rather than a spectator able to see the whole trick. Also I think he didn't invite Penn to join because Penn would've easily caught the cookie load at the end. Excellent catch my friend.
@@wowantonlavey You got it the other way around: Penn’s the misdirection specialist, though he’s no slouch at sleight-of-hand and other magic techniques. Penn was, in his own words, “carny trash” before Teller recruited him to be his partner. By Penn’s own admission, Teller is the superior magician of the two.
I was half expecting Teller to spit out some milk too and be like " what bitch" LOL
Lolllll but not the cookie xD
I was hoping he would. That would have been great!
Misdirection, misdirection, misdirection. That's all it is about, and that was one, if not the, best misdirection. This is a great act, and a fantastic misdirection that trapped the 2 men whose job is literally to not get trapped by it.
So simple, yet so well disguised and easy to miss.
For sure, or my best guess at the nail. The Simon says, watch me. Now you go focus all attention on them and gives you a chance for "magic" its a beautiful set up for misdirection.
Blows my mind how well he performed this. Teller was staring directly at his move and still didn't catch it. His timing was spot on perfect.
The secret to this trick is having the audacity to perform it
He actually seemed surprised to win, like he was just having fun and getting his name out there, but accidentally had superb presentation beyond what he expected lol
He really played it smart by laughing at that moment, it made it so genuine.
HAHA anyone notice how teller is only focused on his hands and not giving a shit about what he's saying?
Fellas you forget that Penn and Teller can't rewatch the trick!! The load is obvious in hindsight but in the moment (and with some overthinking) it totally makes sense that they didn't catch it
But they are two expert magicians one of which at his right.
@@giuliosusini1370 I don't think they missed it, I think it was so obvious that they took a chance that the guy was bluffing them and they only have one guess so they went for it.
It's their job to catch it and they are supposedly experts at it. What totally *doesn't* make sense is Penn's absurd "sleight of mouth" nonsense. Why can't people just admit that P&T screwed up instead of rationalizing it?
@@WiGgYof09 But their "sleight of mouth" guess was idiotic.
This trick is so stupidly simple on the second viewing. XD They were fooled because they were overthinking it.
Yep. We even got a zoom when he did it lol.
That move, yet so obvious, is so perfectly integrated in the whole performance and persona that not even Teller, being right next to him and literally staring at it, did catch it. That is impressive!
schwabentutorials Absolutely! It's blatantly obvious how he does it once you know the outcome, but he's so seamless in his act that you just never see it. Brilliant!
It's a show. I'm pretty sure they seen it but made it fun for the show anyway. I don't have a problem with that. Kinda the spirit of magic. It's fun.
sixdolla they've busted people for using traditional, fun magic every other time. They literally got played at their own game here.
sixdolla Teller ate the cookie to find out the trick. They were stumped, enough said!
“I’m looking right at it and not seeing it. I'm riveted on what is going to happen with the glasses of milk. Focus creates blindness.” - Teller - Via Twitter twitter.com/mrteller/status/785532008935981056 This was picked up by a poker blog for a great lesson.

"How skilled are u with your mouth" Alison: "should we call up your wife"
I can imagine Penn's anger when learning the trick 🤣🤣🤣
Lmao how did they miss that 😂
Hiding the trick with common movements is so clever
Once the milk is spit out, everyone thinks the trick is over. Then, no one is looking for the other shoe to drop.
It helps that he joked and made everyone laugh. Total defuse.
That entire setup, the nail, the spitting the milk - all setting the expectation so you miss the simplest sleight right in your face. I love this.
is anyone else here on a 3 hour penn and teller fooler marathon?
xDDD
This is fake. There is no way any human can place an oreo inside their mouth and not eat it.
Lmfao
He did eat that.
Lee Anderson He did eat it
he obviously had another cookie
I cannot eat oreos 😔
The key move was just too natural to notice.
if I think I know what you're talking about. It's clever AF
Very
The timing and distraction in the trick were just perfect. Almost impossible to see in the first viewing, yet so easy after the second. Penn and teller must have kicked themselves for not noticing it if they re-watched the act. Well done!
I agree
Perfect! The nail was supposed to be "the trick to fool them" but they got confused by the cookie. LAMO :P
@@j0ss24 Actually, before the show, it was two tricks that they ended up putting together!
They probably noticed it, but thought it was too obvious, a red herring, a misdirection to fool them into announcing it and then turning out it wasn't a load.
Penn when he saw the replay: "that on of a b*tch". Teller: " ".
Yeah it was very stupid LOL
One of the best parts of this is Teller not even raising an eyebrow at the suddenly flaming wallet. Almost like he expects wallets to do that every time.
I mean, it's a pretty straightforward magic shop gimmick, isn't it? Wouldn't be surprised to see a display selling them two for one as soon as you walk in the door. It's neat but kind of straight out of the box stuff, right? I like to think Teller saw the flames and was standing there wondering if it was _Acme's Flaming Wallet Gag_ or _Junior Magician Inc.'s Impress Your Friends_ box #4 while Allison reacts appropriately. Note to self: find out where to get one for myself.
@@EdwardHowton Have you looked in Tannen's?
This man has balls of steel- he did that move with Teller looking directly at him! So simple yet wonderful misdirection. 👍🏼
Title was misleading, this man is a not a cookie.
This made me laugh. You're right, I'm not a cookie.
Ah, but a smart enuf cookie to fool the mighty Penn & Teller! Nicely done!
Looked like a pretty smart cookie to me... :P Nicely done, Chris
XD
Ha ha ha
When you only get to watch it once it’s very hard to see but when you watch it a second time you see it right away.
You realize on the second watch what is coming, and that's there's very little opportunity to slip in the cookie.
Alyson: this was a family show now its a dysfunctional family show Penn 3 minutes later: *how skilled are you with your mouth?*
It's so simple but the misdirection was perfect.
This guy makes me happy. He's what I want to be when I'm a full grown adult
There are times when I feel like I haven't made it to "full grown adult" status yet.
This trick is a perfect example of why one of the rules of magic is that you never do the same trick twice. We should stop looking at this trick as "how did it fool P&T" and start looking at this trick as, "miss direction done so well... it tricked P&T"
It was so simple and obvious, they looked it over and couldn't figure it out. It's maybe the most brilliant trick on this show
honestly im more impressed by the nail
LMAO It was slight of hand but it was so well performed they missed it.
Legit the best part of this trick, is Teller Literally watches the load, from a few inches away, and missed it, and i dont even know how he missed it lol
While Teller is standing beside him, you can watch his eyes looking him up and down watching every little movement. That alone is fascinating to watch.
Amazing misdirection and timing! I can't believe they both missed it. I did, too.
I love how excited teller gets
Teller was looking right at him when he loaded the cookie... and he still fooled Penn and Teller!
Teller must have noticed it and thought it was a red herring.
@@praevasc4299 possibly
The load is obvious in retrospect, but the first time through, I didn't notice at all
He really nailed it
+eggroolsoup - thanks for watching.
Great trick man! Balls the size of Texas for that subtle move in front of teller. They must be kicking themselves when they watch it over.
Perhaps it is the simplest of tricks that fool the masters as they are looking for the clever and the mundane passed over their eyes. Perhaps that was the biggest bluff of all.
Nah, they probably noticed it, but thought it was too obvious, and discarded it as a red herring.
When you rewatch it, it's so obvious, but that's the key, you don't watch the trick more than once.
Obviously there’s a tiny little oven inside this guy‘s mouth and it can bake a cookie in mere seconds. I can’t believe Penn didn’t realize that.
I don’t know how I let this comment slip past me. There was a tiny cow in the briefcase that made the milk too. Oh wait that was almond milk.
so simple yet they didn't catch it! love it!
I think Pen and Teller are so focused on seeing something complex that they forget to look at the simplest moves in magic
The guy also seems so well mannered, so him doing what he did kinda seemed normal and "aside from the trick".
the move was so subtle. GG
Haha they probably felt very fooled when they saw the footage
When Penn rewatched that at home I know that he kicked himself. I had to watch it twice to see it.
Slick move....and everyone was staring right at him while he did it. Well played sir!
I like the look on Teller's face when he grabs the last cookie - "It's dry!!" Ah, when simple magic fools legends...
this is such a good trick for experience magicians - so so very simple, and he knew it would work because the nature of the show. so many people there are incredibly skilled enough to trick penn and teller with pure trickery, while chris just did a performance with such simplicity and believability that youd miss it the first time and anyone could overthink it
The trick was hidden in plain sight. Clever. Risky, but clever.
It's so hard to see something before you know you should be looking for it.
GENIUS! I cant believe Penn and Teller missed it!
The trouble is that the trick comes in so early in the setup, and unless you know what he intends to do, there's no way you're looking for it. The trick is set up to misdirect from the actual structure of the trick.
You just don't expect it
The entire trick is a distraction. He got them on the EASIEST part too!
So easy to spot when you watch it back
Its pretty obvious when he snuck the cookie back in his mouth, if you watch it again, knowing he's going to shove the cookie back into his mouth.
its obvious after a rewatch. But not on the first one
Ya! Going back it's embarrassing that I didn't catch it the first time.
well u beat me in noticing it...but that was very natural don't u think 🤔
He is really good. I mean, I think (with the benefit of video that I can rewind and watch over and over) I spotted most, if not all of his moves. But they were executed brilliantly, and his misdirection was incredible. Also, it bugs me that no one saw the thing with the milk jug in the seemingly-too-small case.
That, to me, was the funniest moment.
I saw the milk jug in the case! I was astounded the audience didn't react to it.
I also thought it was weird how that case opened and the milk was standing up-right
THANK YOU! I think, if the case had been more forward on the stage, it would have drawn more attention. Maybe he meant it as a, sort of, Easter egg for us die hards. Also, after rewinding, I can't believe he pulled off that pass with Teller looking right at his mouth. SO SMOOTH!
Yeah, I'm sad that didn't get much attention. It was my take on the 'bowling ball from briefcase" routine. I had planned on walking on stage with the case in hand. The director changed a few things just before we started and those changes made the milk and cookie jar production a non-subject. In hindsight simply placing the case on the floor and picking it up, setting it on the table, then opening it would have made a big difference.
Simple trick to fool legends. Good!
Lol, when pen and teller watched this vid again, they probably hit each other for not seeing it, you have to watch it again to see everything...
yea i just noticed it as well as i rewatched it , it's very clever of him tho everyone is soo distracted
i absolutely agree. actually, i thought the motion was little suspect the first time. but i had to watch 3 more times
Yeah I mean it was so obvious when he loaded the cookie. I don't know how they didn't see it.
If you know the ending of the trick the cookie load is obvious, but going in not knowing what to expect makes it a classic.
everyone is taking about how GENIUS the cookie part was and I'm over here like "How TF did he get the nail in there!?!"
Captain Cucumber slight of hand
Slight of nose actually
Penn specifically said he did not think it was slight of hand so you fooled them.
Chris was too smooth with the presentation. The timing of where it falls in the routine is perfect. Right after they lost, so their guard is down. Incredible stuff!
But Teller was looking right at the load and the bizarre expression afterwards.
This is still one of my favorite tricks ever on this show. The sheer courage to pull that off right in front of Teller is legendary!
Brilliant move right in front of Teller, looking right at the trick! Genius!
James Wilcox Yeah, that's what I was thinking! That took guts!!! So did risking the cash, since there was always the possibility that either one would catch on, and spit out both the milk and cookie! Talk about taking chances he never needed to take!
I am blown away how they missed the obvious being legends of the craft.
Exactly. Really good storytelling and simple distraction can catch even these two masters off guard. When re-watching it I wasn't expecting something so obvious.
If you're good enough with misdirection you can fool anyone
Brett P E Penn tweeted not long after that focus distracts you. They had focused on the spit gag they knew so well that it distracted them from the unexpected ending.
“I’m looking right at it and not seeing it. I'm riveted on what is going to happen with the glasses of milk. Focus creates blindness.” - Teller - Via Twitter
I'm honestly shocked this fooled them.
Agreed, I guess professionals can make mistakes but after a rewatch it was immediately obvious
It goes to show brilliant misdirection. As Penn said he was watching out for the "spit the drink out" trick and because of that focus they missed the brilliant load. P&T talk about this a lot in tricks that end up fooling them is that there are tricks where they don't know what the effect is going to be and therefore they don't know what they are supposed to be looking for. Remember everything on stage has a purpose. The whole reason he did the human blockhead and the milk spit was to prime P&T to think of juggling and not magic so when he did a magic move it slipped right on by. Very bold but also well deserved win.
Total surprise for me too. I wasn’t expecting to fool them.
5:08 When he said "I'm sorry you just lost" He literally mean it cause that was when they, the whole audience and we all actually lost what he did😂 That was hell of a misdirection did in a brilliant way🔥
Good catch. Looking for it it's obvious, but I didn't at the time.
I love that this routine has multiple outs at the end. I kinda wish that Teller had tried to trip you up on the milk spit by also saving some for that because then he would have been really silently animated when you pulled out the cookie. Give him the false sense of security that he one upped you and then BOOM, cookie.
Has this happened yet while performing this routine?
They seem to know that routine, and maybe he went with it out of respect for a fellow magician.
Giles Wells In stand ups where they're called up, Penn and Teller generally play along with the performer even if they anticipated what they're about to do. Generally, they don't break tricks early.
I was actually hoping he would spit it out, it would have made the kicker ending even more special. I have heard Teller has had several opportunities to “mess with” the performer and has made the choice not to because doing so may ruin the performance and that's not what the show is for. The producers said it this way... “Above all, ‘Fool Us’ was created as a celebration of magic.”
Yes, that's why the kicker ending is there.
Holy shit talk about sneaking it RIGHT under Teller's nose. They didn't count that you'd be so audacious as to try something so seemingly obvious.
I'm wildly disappointed that they were fooled by such cheap slight of hand.
Damion Brooks He worked it in beautifully into his act. I’m actually quite impressed that he managed to fool them with such a basic skill.
But the essence of Magic isn't the mechanics, but rather the timing and execution.
uncle0eric Yes. Indeed the routine was pretty easy, but he just acts so smoothly. Penn must hate himself after noticing it afterwards.
Damion Brooks Yeah right!! How did they miss that??
Never underestimate the power of good showmanship.
So Penn and Teller practically got fooled by manners...
The irony of the statement, "You just lost." when you realize what he's done.
Wow! He got lucky Penn wasn't looking when he did the misdirection part. I get why Alison and Teller wouldn't noticed but he's very lucky Penn missed it. Watching it on video it's easy to tell but in person I'm sure it's tough. Love seeing such a simple trick, executed well, fool them!
The trick is that he tells them the game is over, so Teller pays less attention for a short moment. Also the trick is so absurd, that the way he did it would not even register to Teller as an attempt at a sleight, but simply doing what is a perfectly reasonable thing to do in such a situation, after having spat out milk. Teller totally saw him doing the sleight, it just didn't register at all.
What you did to hide it was pretty sneaky, and polite.
I think the thing a lot of comments aren't fully getting is while yeah it seems obvious on rewatch, first time around almost no one would notice because he just acted so naturally adding to the illusion
His jaw was clearly moving and his face was plan as day lol.
This was absolutely brilliant. Bringing Teller onto the stage to get him right up close and then distracting him with his disappointment over the milk hold: nothing short of genius. Don't let these other commenters get you down. Any magic move is easy to spot if you know what you're looking for and only watching for that one thing. You had 3 tricks, albeit simple tricks, running in just the right rhythm to confuse two of the best magicians in the world.
Hahahahaha, they were expecting a much sneakier trick! And Teller was looking right at you too. Beautifully done.
i was focusing so much on everything that i was not supposed to focus on, after watching it a second time it was so unrealistically obvious, and i got no clue how the hell i didn't notice, but DAMN was that a great act nonetheless, brought humor into it as well, loved it
This might be the most obvious trick that's ever fooled them before.
They were expecting 5head trickery but instead it was actually a guy eating a cookie.
But will fool everyone on the first watch
