So simple and smooth trick. That deck flip was so casual, nobody really would think anything of it.
Thank you
There was a change of pace that made me notice there was something going on, maybe a bit of nerves? Anyhow, great routine!
@4:10 I see it now.. woww.. I know the magic.
Exactly I was thinking the same thing!!
@@m_sharif wow mind blown
Wonderful trick, probably one of the boldest on the show. Walking that knives edge of simplicity. A single move that is so easy to catch if you are looking for it, but makes the trick seem incredible if you miss it, and after all what is a good magician besides a master of misdirection?
Wow. Thank you very much
@Max Thornton Couldn't be said better.
Many congrats @David Corsaro
@@jorgedavid2568 thank you
It's the way he so confidently says 'This is not a card trick' whilst simultaneously doing a blatent card trick in front of their eyes that makes it funny :P
This is beautiful. He put it in their face with the Pavlov bell that he was going to get them to bite on the mentalism misdirection and created such a change of pace with the names on the cards concept that they didn’t even catch a card trick EVERYONE can see once they know to look.
He even said, in the intro he uses psychology, but didn't say that's what he was gonna do tonight, rather he said "I'm going to be using a very powerful psychological technique"... Which isn't psychology, rather reverse-psychology.
you guys are both wrong. penn doesn't describe a trick that clearly unless he knows it's not how it was done. in other words, they knew it was not a psychological trick
Absolute genius
To all those commenting what a "simple" trick this was. While technically not a demanding Kostya Kimlat or Shin Lim card handling routine, what sold this so well was David's presentation. There was SO MUCH he did right here... using the bell as a joke (and distraction), a steady demeanor and well delivered patter, the built in "Helen Coghlan" joke, the cover he provided himself when time for the move, and the way he walked away clean from the table should P&T ask to see the cards afterwards. And I believe he was betting on P&T trying to figure out the number of letters in the words adding up to the same value as a misdirect from the actual method (which they believed), as a nice decoy away from the actual method. This is a solid performance in a very stressful environment and David nailed it!
Thank you
@@davidcorsaro You had total command of the table and their attention. It was certainly the confidence that sold the trick. Great job.
Very well put, mate. Crazy ninja-like dexterity doesn't always amount to a good trick. The one and only thing that matters is the execution.
I would have to say youre right. At first i didnt really like this trick & couldnt believe it was a winner.
But you make a good point. P&T have caught the smoothest of slight of hand moves from ACROSS the room. While sitting right there in front of him BOTH missed his move because of how perfect it was.
Which is the game. The Best of the best, watch you & if you make them miss it. You win.
Not my favorite trick, but like Allison said the simpler and faster it is the harder it is for them to spot.
It's not about being simple or not. It was just not impressive at all. It had interesting built up but at the end I'm not impressed and find the whole routine weak; regardless of it's difficulty level (simple or not).
Pull to a wide shot when the magic happens, convenient indeed. Very clever simple magic delivered in a nice way
Brilliant in its subtlety... this is magic in its purest form... knowing when even the masters will not be noticing something and using that to your advantage. Wonderful.
Thank you so much
@@davidcorsaro This is one trick where you want the public to catch what P&T missed. Misdirecting them from something obvious is magic.
To be fair, I saw it when I rewinded and saw his card handling a second time, but that's a luxury that P&T doesn't have on stage. They might be burning his hands, but they only have one chance to spot the move. Really well performed trick, and so many applications!
Thank you
I knew it wasn't in the word length, but it took me three times watching to see it. I wonder if they stuck with the same close-up camera all the time how long it would take to spot.
I had to check after you said this. Just took me 5 mins to figure it out in .5 speed lol. Flip
I can't believe penn and teller were fooled by this trick. Very odd.
Agreed, that was done extremely smoothly. The camera angle makes it hard to see, but I caught it the second time as well. However, had I been sitting there, I don't think I'd have seen it even if watching closely when he made the move.
The move at the very end when they walk away undoes all the dirty work too. Nicely done.
Thank you for noticing
@@davidcorsaro This is 1% card trick and 99% targeted psychological warfare. I watched Teller walk away in slow motion: He knows something is up, as he is still burning the deck, but his face says he's not sure which method was used.
@@davidcorsaro clever
@@davidcorsaro Smooth criminal
I enjoyed this even though I was pretty sure I saw the deck flip, but I couldn't be positive because it was so smooth. After it was over, I checked and this is what happened: he turned the deck sideways, gathered the pile, and then simply laid it down upside down at 4:10. I didn't think he would fool them, but they completely missed that due to the superb storytelling, his confidence, and a very relaxed handling of the cards. Congratulations.
Alison was right ^^
The great thing about this trick is that it makes you think it's about word length. Your timing was perfect! When Penn started talking about the number of letters etc., you had that "Aweee you got me" look, Lol!. Great Job!
Thank you very much
Loved everything about this, the presentation is amazing. Fooled me, and even now knowing how it was done and being able to see it... it just makes it that much more impressive. The misdirection is spot on to hide what's in plain sight, however smoothly and briefly.
Thank you
Fooled by simplicity and distraction. Way to go David
like Alison suggested it
That is beautiful. No card trick. All performance. A masterclass.
Thank you
Wow Alyson was right, it's the simple tricks that often fool them, because they tend to overthink.
Very well done!
Thank you
The sleight of hand is at 4:09 and P&T totally missed it. It was great that you and Allison explained the trick while you were talking. Fool them with an easy strategy, but take them in a completely different direction. Very clever. Great trick!!!
Thank you
@@davidcorsaro i was desperately looking for a second or a Bottom deal! it was amazingly slick, and i'm happy to see you Join Top foolers like helen coghlan and Doc Dixon. no chance that would of been caught live.
But the whole act around the trick, the quick jokes, and the natural way of presenting you have make it so captivating. Amazing stuff.
That must be the best distraction Ive ever seen. He spent the entire time just distracting them from that one move. Haha, amazing.
@@DCVM93 Penn&Teller forgot the first rule of magicians: "they always lie" as soon as he said "this isn't a card trick" they should've known it was one.
Honestly if it weren't for the comments though I wouldn't have seen that move. It was so slick that I had to slow the video down to half-speed just to really, positively see it. Absolutely brilliant.
Idk if that counts as sleight of hand lmao. It was a brilliantly designed trick though.
I love the fact that almost a kid could do it. That makes your performance even more awesome. 👌
its the most simplest trick that could fool penn and teller ever
@@harshdevsharma6397 the Oreo though
@@itskelvinn I would argue this one is even simpler, it's just a matter of having the right timing, the oreo ones needs some skill in making the move look natural
“I should point out this is not a card trick.” Says the guy who’s there to fool everyone.
That's magicians for ya.
"Here is an average basic deck of 52 cards." Then why are you telling me that?
"This coin is solid, and there is no way it could possibly go through this." I know, but why did you say that?
All lies. That's why Teller is great, no words needed. You know why you are here and what he is. Just let my magic speak for me.
Of course many magicians have great presence on stage. Just saying for the few, that tell us this thing is/isn't something when it really is/isn't.
Some play into it, like that one magician on Fool Us I can't remember his name but I saw his video again recently. The trick was a card trick and he slowly revealed how he did the trick only to show that none of it was true and the "truth" ended up being a lie. It was very clever. It evolved 52 decks of cards on a wheel. Each deck had one real card and 51 blanks. Or did it? I'll see if I can find his name and edit it in.
EDIT: Asi Wind is his name. His Fool Us performance is on CZcams, and worth a watch or re-watch.
He even fooled the cameraman!! Plus, he never shows you the bottom of the deck of cards. It doesn't matter what words are chosen if you flip the deck and deal from the bottom!! Ingenious and well done, sir!!
Damn a deck flip fooled them🤣🤣🤣🤣
A cleanly done, well presented deck flip.
Wow! So cool to see you on Fool Us!
No reason you'd remember me, but I went to school with your sister. I remember you came to our 4th grade class at Marshall Hill and did a magic show for us. I was so amazed that D___'s brother (just a normal guy) was a magician. I always thought that magicians were... well, larger-than-life wizards who lived in mountain castles. I had no idea that a guy from my town could be a magician. That's what made me start learning magic tricks. I never went pro, but I still love magic even 30-something years later. So great to see that you're still doing it. And congratulations on the Fooler!!!
Thank you so much
I loved this trick! And Alyson's enthusiam. Yes, only after someone mentioned the deck flip did I see it on repeat.
There is something amazing about methods that most magicians would skip over. A lot of times both magicians and laypeople forget that you don’t need to create a new sleight of “move planets” to fool people. Props to Corsaro for creating an effect that uses good presentation over prestidigitation to fool people. That’s the sign of a good marketer!
Thank you so much
Such a cleverly disguised simple trick! I flip my hat to you, sir!
Flipped out for this trick. Smooth and well done!
hahahaaaaaa
Yaa i saw that too. Still a great trick.
Where is the trick?
Equally smooth and well done: this comment. I could see Penn saying it if they had it figured out.
He definitely had the deck with all the names stop at a certain point, meaning if they picked the longest 3 words and he spelled them out, it would add up to for example 30 cards, that’s the maximum that could have been placed due to the word length, and then the other 22 cards where on the other side of the deck “upside down” so that when he flips the deck it still looks like it’s not been flipped, and simply his own named card was at the “bottom” of the deck, now at the top after the flip to make it look like their chosen words led him to that point, even though they could have chosen any 3 words.
Extremely simple explanation and to think Penn and Teller didn’t get it, congratulations, very impressive to lead them elsewhere
You can actually see it happen at 4:10. Click back to 4:05 and watch the hand which handles the deck while he flips the cards on the table over.
Can be seen at normal speed but very easy to catch at 1/4 speed as well.
Very impressive to be able to pull one over on Penn and Teller like this when they are burning you, but he definitely took as much cover as possible by putting Penn and Teller on the same side of the table and covering the deck hand with the cards from the table as he flips the deck over.
The two would have absolutely caught it if either were in Allison's chair. Of course I guess that is part of the game!
Another one where the editing obscures the trick. If the camera had stayed on the deck, it would have been easier to see.
@@daveb5026 but editing didn't obscure the trick? its shown. you can see it happen.
After seeing the method, I like it even more!
Not as impressive as that first sentence, holy shit.
So happy for you buddy! Congratulations!
I also love the way he slightly hides his move by covering it while gathering the cards on the table, this could be just enough to prevent them from seeing it.
I would never have guessed If wasn't for the comenta.. Alyson was right about a simple method being better to fool then because they would overthink... She came closer then P &T to figure the trick lol 😂
it could be the most simple trick ever which can fool penn and teller
The thing is, alyson said it at the right performance...
4:08 I was raising my hands in air saying wow that's it?? and they still got fooled. So the point is to misdirect ONLY them on stage creating stories and distractions and none other.
I think Allison saw the deck flip while P&T was watching the mis-direction of the flipping cards.
Yeah that was uncanny
Man I'm a T1D. I feel for you man and I'm glad your son is doing well. I always get choked up when I see someone working to spread awareness and support the cause.
Thank you and take care of yourself
Congratulations David! Great job!!
💥BOOM!!!💥™
It is even more funny with Alison decribing what kind of tricks fool Penn and Teller. 😂
Great Trick loved watching this over and over and I dunno how either !!! Kick ass good man
So good! Can't wait to see more!
THANK YOU
AWESOME, such a great effect and you fooled them in such an amazing way! This is the kind of FOOLER I love to celebrate. Well done Brother...
Congratulations to both of you foolers!
I wonder if he was using Canadian cards...
You had them so busy looking for the left hook, they missed the jab lol. Good job
Thank you
Such a beautifully simple move. Bravo.
Omg just a wrist turn can fool .
Sometime ❤️❤️ congratulations sir
Genius in the simplicity
Great misdirection & solid routine. Congrats on your win!
Teller wiggling his foot realizing he missed the sleight of hand on the cards cracks me up. such a great and simple trick with excellent stage presence, loved the entire routine!
Thank you.
This performance is definitely on my top 10! Simply amazing! 👏👏👏👏
Thank you so much
David! Not surprised you killed this. We met a few years back in San Diego... you were awesome!!! Congrats Stuart K.
That is fabulous David!
Smooth... you love this trick and you nailed it!! CONGRATS!!!!
Fantastic trick. Congratulations on that trophy!
Thank you
@@davidcorsaro Well deserved! 👏👏👏
I liked this guy from the minute he started. Great act!
genius. Its so simple, that you dont even think about it. fantastic! =)
I just figured it out and this has to be one of the funniest, ballsiest tricks I'v seen.
Exactly, Allison called it, they over thought it but the magician was super slick
You tricked them in a surprisingly simple way and they went too far in their analysis , good job 👍
Ha, u got that right- remember the mind reading chicken trick? Teller instructed Penn to go on and on about special transmitters- and all along the chicken really was just reading her mind
I must say, I see it now in 0.75 slow motion after reading the comment, but anyone who can HONESTLY say they got that in real time and saw the flip, fair play. I was burning his hands, Penn and Teller were burning his hands, that was clean as you like in real time.
A little luck sure, but equally some GREAT sleight of hand to give him the chance to get lucky.
Thank you
I remember this trick when it aired. That was fun!
so smooth and simple it's genius. Had to rewatch it about 5 times to notice the catch. Great trick!
Thank you very much
Awesome! May the magic STAY with you!
Great work! I hope you had as much fun as I had, doing the show! :-)
Simple & effective. Congrats!! 👏👏
And love the suit 👌
Am I dreaming, or did Alison get the trick? She went on about it being "simple" and P+T going down a more complex path and getting fooled, and literally that's exactly what happened.
I think she literally caught it. She was in a much better position to see it. I don't think she talked about the simplicity of the trick by pure chance. She probably told P&T later that she caught it and that's why she said they would be fooled if the trick was simpler.
Well done, I loved the theming of your effect.. Really well thought through and superbly performed..
Good job Dad! Proud of you!
I paused it right at the end of your show dude fool them or not that's the best show I've seen so far. very creative well-presented awesome
Thank you
He fooled me and he entertained me. David Corsaro is a truly entertaining guy.
Thank you
Great trick, I almost flipped out when I saw it. Flipping amazing 👏
Yes. Flipping amazing. I’m surprised with them burning his hands they didn’t see that. I honestly saw it immediately. Still flipping amazing.
I flipped out at 4:10
Exactly what I think I saw. How can they be fooled by a so simple trick.
clever method, loved it
Woohooooo. Loved it. You’re fantastic 🤩
lovely! super smooth. This is a real fooler! Congrats
Thank you
Is the psychological part to say it's not a card trick at the same time you're doing one ?
I met David Corsaro over a decade ago!! like his magic!!!!!
Thank you
@@davidcorsaro didn't realize this was your account. I met you at one of the IBM meet ups
Congratulations Sir. Impressive.
David used to “fool us” back in college in the 1993. Mimosa is proud
wtf ? was that guy born in the 70's he looks way too young for that, heck I wasn t even born in 93 for 2 more years
@@VladRadu-tq1pg hehe I get that all the time too. Maybe it’s the NJ water
What a blessing
@@VladRadu-tq1pg Thanks for depressing me (kidding.) Yup, born in 1975
Nothing delights me more than seeing P&T fooled when I am not. Nice work.
Thank you
He is so good that even without misdirection he could've fooled them. And honestly i really love his idea and i enjoyed seeing penn confused at the end.
Thank you very much
Very Kostya Kimlat-esque! Moving the bottom card looked very natural.
What an absolutely stunningly simple trick that was only apparent because it was caught on film.
Thank you
@04:10 you can see, he turn over the deck of cards
I expected Penn to say: "Well then, I must say it was Clever, Creative and Powerful! You fooled us!"
I actually liked this more once I figured out how it was done. *SO* clean and smooth. Not "hard" or flashy sleight of hand, but nevertheless a masterful card trick. One of the purest magic tricks I've seen. I was 100% fooled in the same way Penn and Teller were the first time I saw it. Anybody who has done magic has used this method for something and yet two of the greatest magicians of all time still didn't pick it up a couple of feet from their eyeballs.
Thank you so much
Thank you so much
Excellently done trick! I'm not a magician so I'm not even going to attempt to theorize on how its done, I just wanted to point out how excited and happy Penn is when he realizes you fooled them!
if you watch closely he flips the deck of cards over. it's a set deck and i don't really think he fooled anyone but was given the win for some reason.
@@CheatersHaveSmollPP pls delete this I don't want to know how its done
@@aTF2player thats so much easy that everyone who watch this video , will get it
I don't know if I've seen Alison that happy about a fooler before. Well done!
I think she was just happy that she got to ring the bell.
it is being added to my list of simple yet elegant foolers. There are a few, not too many which are this elegant. Follow the leader is one, as is the doc you pulled. It took me some hints in the comments, time stamps and a slow motion replay, watching that several times even with the sound off, to finally understand how it was done. The audacity!! Well hidden from view, clever! despite them burning you, they were also cleverly taken on a trip down memory lane, with the names on the cards of their foolers and your accessible but very distracting banter and sense of humor encouraging them to focus on these names.
So even though the "trick is just one move" as someone wrote in the comments, it is the multitasking that always takes my breath away. Beautiful trick man!! Well deserved!
Thank you
The funniest part of it is I think Allison saw the move that Penn and Teller missed as they were looking for a push or number game. lol
When? And what move? People say it’s at 4:09 but I don’t see anything?
@@gundam116It was when he is scooping up the cards. You can see him flip the deck when he sets it on the table. Genius move and too many moving pieces with all the mental math going on. Excellent showmanship.
Brilliant!
Thanks buddy
Totally flipped out when i saw he won the trophy. Well done!
I see what you did there.
Amazing
way cool! love it! but how do they make the virtual audience sound live in the studio....??
Nice job David 👏
Awesome trick!
Well done!!!
Mister, that was smooth!
Thank you
That was so simple.. so easy.. just flipped the deck over when you put it down and boom, that was it, that was all of it. just.. so simple and bold in their face, good fuckin job.
That was smooth..... VERY smooth.
Thank you
the sheer confidence of this man
Good thing or bad thing?
"This is not a card trick" @ 4:04 is the psychological trick.
This is so simple it's almost ridiculous. Really shows your marketing chops to be able to sell something this basic so well as to (*ding*) fool them. And you even explain it right there and then. This is some wonderfully meta stuff, well done.
Sometimes the best steak is simple and just cooked right. thanks
I am such a fan of misdirection, and how great you could do this with THESE two kings! CZcams enables us to reveal it by watching more often, maybe fair for super curious guys like me, but I laughed so much when I saw that it was really so nice misdirection. I LOVE THIS PERFORMANCE.
I am not a magician but I went once to a magic school (just a trial evening) in Munich and learned there only one trick that was a bit better (and some children tricks) but at the one better trick (I weirdly have never seen anywhere on youtube) the one important move I had to do was a bit similar to your one, so I could concentrate on only one skillful thing AND A LOOOOT OF STORYTELLING to nicely confuse the spectators.
Thank you
I am really surprised that this simple trick fools P&T. I can't believe that they were misdirected and didn't notice the deck flip
seems they re gettin old lol
Time stamp on deck switch
@@farisbirrawi8912 they are old no disrespect
@@mercedeswilkins5566 4:08 when he gathers the cards on the table the flips the deck over as he places it down
Alison figured it out :D
I've seen several card tricks that use the same technique since I first watched this video. It was executed really well, but I am very surprised that Penn and Teller were fooled by it, considering the vast amount of experience that they have.
double bluff
Nicely done
That deck flip is so subtle wow
Thank you
Most simple yet beautiful magic.
Yes the most impossible tricks have the simplest answers.

Great work David! :)
Thank you
