You talking back to Penn in code and making him laugh SO hard was probably as hard as this amazing trick. Congratulations on both achievements!
What's the code? i don't get it
@@rossmanmagnus the magicians speak in a code explaining the trick without giving the trick up to the audience and viewers. If you aren't a magician to a certain degree you probably won't get riddles they speak.
@@rossmanmagnus so when penn and teller were talking about hospital most likely was inquiring about the area he did the swapping of cards.
@@ericmoberg7679 thanks dude that made a lot of sense 👍🏾
A laproscopy is where you have little holes in a patients abdomen to access the inside.
In this case it likely means there were holes in the table that would be invisible from that far.
Great act, the invisible cards were so seamless that they felt real!
Nah I caught how he was doing it. Kind of ruined the whole thing. That was only because at least once he wasn’t smooth enough.
@@J-Rod91 and it only took you four years of rewinding? 😂
@@nitedk four years later and a million be kind rewinds and i still dont get it ahh!!
@@anderivativehehe 😊 when he pretends to deal the visible cards, he actually palms them and then drops them in his lap. Then he palms the queen from the lap while holding forward the bill.
He got really unlucky with the camera angle to be fair.
I can't get enough of the moment where you're dealing the invisible cards. It's such a great effect.
Yeah this was pretty entertaining.
Penn nailed it when he said how unique Erik's style is. So fun to watch!
And Alyson nailing the sound effect
Happy with myself that I guessed Lennart Green was going to be mentioned in Penn's code. Never been able to do that before, but Green is so amazing that I recognized the influence. Wonderful performance!
I love it when I know it's sleight of hand, but I can't see a trace of it. It really looks like magic! And I just want to be fooled some more.
he flashed so many times
You didnt watch close enough.. I knew how it was done befor eit was over
Ill respectfully say, if there is one thing a magician really needs to work on is making their hands seem natural when palming cards.
Wow.. I have never seen the invisible card trick done so smoothly. Nice!
Erik Tait is tremendously entertaining and FUN to watch. Man, I couldn't pull myself away from his act. I was hooked.
I love seeing Teller's face when somebody straight up impresses him.
Wow the lennart green snap deal/lazer deal was perfect love it
Loved the act from the moment you said "that can academically prove that I'm hilarious." Great performance all around Erik!
I’ve seen Erik do this live. He is so much fun to watch, and the routine is awesome. Fantastic work!
I've never smiled so much when a trick came to a close. Really impressive work dude, perfect balance between dry humour and actual wonder.
Insane how much better this act got between Fool Us and FISM 2022
Yeah. FISM will do that to a thing. You should see me live when I am not insanely nervous.
Your slight of hand is absolutely incredible. I rewatched and you did it so fast yet so smoothly.
That was one of the best performances I'v seen on this show.
Thank you so much!!!
Excellent slight of hand. I liked the invisible card step and the switching of cards in one hand. Smooth act. Enjoyed.
This has to be my favorite act from Penn and Teller that did not fool them. It’s easily in my top 5 favorite acts from the show. Everything was fantastic. You were just so funny and and gave such an incredible performance. That, and you’re obviously no magic slouch. This is such a difficult trick to pull off as seamlessly as you did it. You may not have fooled them, but you gave them what, in my opinion, is one of the better performances from the show.
Absolutely, absolutely impressive!!! Bravo!!!
I just saw your FISM version of this act, and I felt like you've improved even more from this performance. The arm and hand placement was, imo, much natural and better. Well done!
is just amazing, a comedian/magician is like see an unicorn
I know the goal is to fool them, but sometimes I think just entertaining them in a unique way could be worth just as much.
Agreed
Definitely agreed.
This was so clean, just flawless and this is why no one should ever play 3 card monte in a street game; ever 😂
A shill wins with the bent corner and the public notices. In round 3, even if U bet on which is NOT the queen (cause there is no queen), you will not get very far from the table when the gang (of 10) will do horrible things to get their money back and scatter.
Wanna have some fun, shout a word during the game and they think it is their lookout reporting seeing a cop. Poof; Table on the ground and only the public is standing there. (Have your wallet in your front pocket when standing around.)
Loved the buffy money haha
Seen you on FISM and Penguin! Great moves! Lennart Green was the first magician I truly loved. Hearing the shout out there made me so happy! Great performance!
This is great! I get that it's slight of hand, but I love that I can't see anything or figure it out really, it looks so real and natural!
I love you Eric Tate ... Your reply to Penn was even better than the trick ... Really though the timing through out the routine was just perfect
Great presentation & trick. It's great you brought Lennart Green. One of my favorite magicians. Also choice on the background on stage. Definitely one of my favorites too
Wow! Excellent hands!
The slight of hand is so good. The only time I even saw anything was around 4:50 and even that was minimal at best. This is a great routine.
😂😂😂😂
I know how he's done it but, he does it soo well 👏🏻👏🏻
"Are you sure you don't have any of that Buffy money laying around?" Hilarious! Well played lol!!! Hearing a Buffy reference made my day lol!! Such a great routine! How'd the freakin cards disappear??? 😳😵💫😲
Oh snaps! That's right!
woulda been better if he asked about the american pie money
That was really well done, the only time I saw any of what happened was the last switch, That one was fast and almost perfect but just enough that if you are looking for the sleight that you can catch it. I almost missed it because it was very smooth, I'm thinking from Penn and Tellers seat it wouldn't even be visible, the camera angle there may have done you dirty a bit.
That said I really enjoyed that performance, even knowing exactly what it was, it's always delightful to see a skillful execution of a trick
Can we talk about the invisible cards tho. Holy....
So cool well done
Eric! This is awesome! Congratulations!
Great job.
I love this - killer job Erik!
Something about the routine, the way you held your hands at the table, and the general lack of ambiguity made it very clear when the moves had to happen, and therefore made it clear when they did happen. The controls are done well, but you could probably stand to find a way to get your dirty work done at a less obvious time
This was great Eric!! It was fun to watch!
Wow, so good 😂❤
Love this guy.
Thanks for coming to Fort Wayne's Omnisource office party the other day, enjoyed your magic (especially when you drew the movable door on the card).
Thanks for having me! I loved performing for your group!
A Risada do Penn foi demais kkkk
Honestly, the most impressive thing to me about this performance, is being comfortable enough to give Alyson room to do her brilliant comedic things, in a back and forth fashion. Most "comedic" magicians aren't secure enough(or good enough) to be able to go there when on stage. You're legit funny, Erik.
That's a great point actually.
Great auditory illusion and nice sleights
Great performance , well done.👍 Those camera angles were a bit unfortunate though, but your routine was well thought out , I enjoyed it very much👍
Excellent job! Peace from Rio de Janeiro Brazil
Really nice performance. I saw a little something at 2:20 the first time through (which made the immediate, subsequent disappearance that much better)but I guess with cards that is to be expected when you're looking for things. Overall an outstanding effort.
Wow he’s sensational I loved his act and he’s very funny too. Great job !
I've heard of beer money, but not 'beard' money! I think the coded explanations given by Penn are great. The performer knows whether Penn and Teller really know how the act worked, without giving anything away to the audience to spoil it.
Also from the CBUS! Hope to catch your act soon!
That back and forth between Penn & Tait was iconic. This coded language should be called, "PennLatin".
Lol she did not like the "Buffy cash" joke 🤣 😂
Yes she did. She does have a sense of humor.
Very nice.
Really great!
What a nice guy!
A great trick and a great presentation! Thank you very much for your art!
Awesome trick
This is my best among all the P&T FU so far!
I loved, and this is a guess, that you never expected to fool them. You wanted exposure and to provide entertainment as well as demonstrating mastery of a very difficult sleight. Very similar to Daniel Madison's reasoning when he was on the show. Bravo sir.
Oh yeah. I didn’t really think I could fool them. I wanted the experience. This show put me on the path to a successful career in magic, so I very much won in every sense apart from fooling them.
Ur magic is beautiful!!!
One of the best performances of this show. Bravo!
I loved the act. Bravo. It's disappointing that the eyes of Penn and Teller are as a sharp as a laser. Congratulations on the FISM win!!
It’s a lot better now and the FISM routine has some big improvements. I’ll be posting that video when I get it from FISM.
@@eriktait434 whew! Congratz!
@@eriktait434 awesome hand movements
It’s crazy how fast you got it
He has seven servings of delicious New England clam chowdah soup in that beard!
nice clean sleight of hand, even tho i knew when you're swapping and hiding cards, i didn't actually see any of it. like when you made cards disappear, i knew you had them in your right hand and pushed them over the edge of table, but it was impossible to see from that camera angle. nice performance.
His slight of hand is incredible. Everything is timed impeccably. You need to have great finger work for this too.
Erik, in fact, went to his beard 5:59😆
It’s almost impossible to fool Penn and Tailor with sight of hand trick. But full points for presentation.
The idea that you are trying to snap there
That was genius, in the moment
I really don't care HOW they do their tricks . . . I just admire their talent!
Nice work
Erik if you don’t mind I wanted to ask what was the process of getting on Penn and Teller?
Love your work and congrats on winning at IBM!
There is a video submission process followed by discussions with the producers and magic consultants. They are pretty thorough and great to work with.
Never seen anyone deal invisible cards lile that...
Lovely routine and so entertaining. 👏👏 But I gotta say, they could've angeled the camera better at some points.
To this day ever since American pie, had the biggest crush on Alison, god I love her
Odd, I caught most of it. Then again I was looking for it too. Still, good skills
“Having a iconic beard” fact!😂😂😂
Great, bro.
Allison liked him, she got giddy :3
Very Lennart
I like how much more it evolved into your FISM appearance, but keeping the jokes
Anyone else notice he does not have a shirt pocket so him pulling the money out was a subtle trick
What a boss!
Damn my best act
Only 9k views!?
There was another CZcams channel that put it up before me and had something like 6 million views. But they got DMCA’d so mine is a little behind.
You didn't fool me; I know you didn't really have one hundred dollars. haha seriously though, I think I know some of what went on there, but I can't figure out the whole thing even after multiple viewings. Good work.
As a veteran internet backseat magic critique, i love this routine. Esp the money spawning from the beard, as a beardy gentleman myselt, i ought to learn this one.
The rest of the trick just looked easy so it's ok, i'll pretend i understood what was going on.
The routine is not yet published, learning it will be a touch difficult. I’ve heard the performer is considering publishing it in the near future.
🎈🎈👌👌👏👏👏👏👏👏
6:44 at slow motion. i see you pick up 2 cards. damn that's smooth
First time seeing Penn trying to sabotage a performance by deliberately choosing a different position for the queen (in the second step) after seeing the queen (as we all did) in the central position. Was he trying to challenge the magician or to communicate that he spotted the slight of hand? In any case, good comeback by Eric.
I honestly don’t think he was trying to sabotage me. I think that I hadn’t figured to scripting out the way it is now and he was deliberately acting like a lay person.
Good job even if you didn't fool them.
Technically, didn't he already fool Penn during the trick?
Leonard Green is a doctor!? Praise indeed!!
Lenart.
I could not for the life of me keep up. I would guess how it did it, but why bother I would be wrong......and it would spoil the fun.
Allison is so cute. I still have a crush on her.
Didn't know Nerdrotic was a magician. Pretty cool.
3:43
Sukma Brata unfortunately magic isn’t real. But when I figure out a way to actually do this trick for real you better believe I’ll put it on CZcams!!!
very impressive. I felt that the camera angle being used wasn't very magician friendly, not a typical viewpoint that an audience would see
All that time to get on show and you do a 3 card monte. Not sure how you forgot it’s fool them not show them
I ended up taking this routine to the Olympics of magic and bringing home the Bronze medal. So I am pretty ok with how it worked out.
