      1) you mean, you don't agree with me.

      3) why do you think it was not fucked up? Let me tell you why I think it was, and you can try to give some counter-arguments. Maybe I'll change my mind.
      - I believe we can discard the possibility that she was in on it (planted stooges are not allowed, I believe that includes Alyson).
      - Maybe she just decided to fake it on the spot. I doubt that.
      - I would assume that she was genuinely uncomfortable with the trick, and I believe he knew that in advance, based on her reaction to some previous acts. (Do you not agree with this assumption?) He then chose her on purpose, instead of Penn, Teller, or a random audience member whom they surely would have asked whether they are OK with a trick like that. She was faced with a decision to either not take part in it (which might be hard from the perspective of her contract, and also she knows it would look bad for the show), or to be part of the trick she did not want to. And he fully knew that and counted on that.
      I am sorry, but if forcing (peer pressure / contract pressure) someone to do something they find disgusting (albeit it being safe from the objective point of view, and her knowing it) is not cool.

And while I believe her reaction was genuine, that doesn't mean she didn't play it up a bit for the audience. That's the POINT (pun intended) and if you don't think she understands that then I don't know what to tell you.

    I always appreciate that when danger is involved in the tricks, Penn completely does away with the code because he is not about magicians putting themselves or others in any kind of real danger. No secret communication, if there's a risk that someone was put in legitimate danger, it's immediately paramount that everyone in the audience know how it worked.

      The magicians are required to tell a producer backstage how the trick actually works so that if Penn and Teller figure it out the magician can't lie and say no that's not it. I feel like if a magician wanted to do a trick that put someone in genuine danger then the producers would reject their act.

      Yeah, with magicians, no danger is EVER involved. Otherwise it's a pretty short carrier. P&T know this, thus the guess of the safety of the machine. Teller's look was surprise that the safety was not the machine, but in the trick.

    I really think I figured out a big portion of the trick. At 3:58 he acts like he is putting the solid shield in the envelope but he is actually putting it behind the envelope in his hand. There is another sheet in the envelope already with a hole in it (you can tell as he is holding the envelope awkwardly). Then a few seconds later you can see his hand, while holding the envelope and metal sheet, quickly drop down towards the table. That is when he releases the solid sheet, letting it fall down to a box or something he could kick under the table. This is why there is a cover on the table, hiding what's going on behind the table. Otherwise he would not need a covered table. He most likely did this same thing, but in reverse, with a previous envelope so it had a solid sheet when we actually thought it was a sheet with a hole in it. However, I don't know how he did the "final choice" thing. Maybe he would have a different script if she ended up picking it early or late.

      @Dareyouhow Před 2 lety

      I think they are all stab proof, I think that hook is curled in such a way that it strikes the rim of the hole on all bars, and all the bars left on the table at the end had a hole in them. I.e. the hook doesn't strike centre

      I thought the envelopes were gimmicked too (side with flap being marked for plate). But I kept coming back to the idea that the hostess kept her eye on the "solid" plate, and it was the first one to have a hole.
      My current theory is both. An envelope is marked safe, and the initial "solid" plate is actually holed, with a magnet slider in the plate that is moved by madnets in the spiked ring. The other two holey playes are just that. There's a second plate that's also magnetized in an open position to start, that he slides closed. Rotating the envelope would be a good clue.
