If you think I lied, you were fooled too. But luckily for you the show is not called Penn and Teller: Fool The Audience and Everybody Else Online. For me there is no victory in puzzling somebody who doesn’t have the clues. But for those who want to keep digging, for whatever masochistic reason, Look closely at Penn’s quote: The only thing we can think of, is that you have A RING that is so carefully constructed to COME APART in halves, either with a very strong magnet, or with a shell, or something like that. That an audience member, or even Teller on very, very, very careful examination, Could not get the goddamn thing to come apart. Now If you have THAT RING, gimmicked in anyway, we are not going to give it to you. If you did that in anyway other than that, with what would have to be pure sleight of hand, we’re not going to cheat and say, “Okay, it’s sleight of hand.” Because we didn’t catch you you on anything. If it is anything other than a ring that comes apart, you have fooled us... I HAVE NO RING THAT COMES APART. Nothing I use has and moving or mechanical components. The only mechanism is sleight of hand. If you still don’t believe me that’s on you. the judges and Penn & Teller have thoroughly re-examined the guess and they still say they had No idea what I was doing. And that from their point of view there were no tells to tip the method and they had to just take a guess. If you are a student magic you know the actual answer, No need to post Spoilers. Let them enjoy the magic.

Got talent judges are mostly talentless hacks who got lucky and think they are superior beings now and have all talents on earth that they can call out anyone. Penn and teller are incredibly humble and are just willing to always learn

"Any art form is just an excuse to meet another human being", so true. Many of us use it and don't realize. Be it music, magic, or drawing.

Penn & Teller will always respect magic when it's delivered in a flawless performance. This was up close, personal and incredibly crafted magic. I look at this act and think of the Moon. We know the moon is round and sometimes all there to be seen, but there are many times where you only see half of the moon. And the ring is like the moon, it's always facing us on the same side no matter how much it's twisted around. We are never shown the real magical ring which is super amazing.

@chris batycki I didn’t say you were believing internet comments. I’m telling you I’m not just going to believe your internet comment.

I’m almost certain he has a real ring which is basically just for show, and a half ring which he can slide around, and he keeps swapping them. Why else would he cover his hand as he takes them off? He constantly looks like he’s palming something, not in the sense where he absolutely must be, but in the sense where he’s not showing us his palms. And if he does have a half ring, he could palm it on the back of his hand by holding his fingers together. In fact, there’s a point at which there’s pretty much no way the ring just came off. He switches the ring between his two thumbs so instantly that it’s most likely two rings. Or should I say a real ring and a half ring.

The real magic of this trick isn't the "trick", it's Garrett's narrative, presentation, and especially his execution. Even watching at .25x knowing the "trick" behind the impossible parts, it's difficult to catch him on anything. Really impressive stuff!

Garret is not miracle worker, watch carefully, he is twisting this ring from right to the left, every time the same way, It means that this ring was very precisely constructed and must be opend in specific way, but only from one side.

I really just like that all the magicians post these on their own accounts.

I never ever comment, but I have to say this is by far my favorite performance I’ve seen on Fool Us, absolutely amazing!

Usually I have a fair idea of how the trick was done but this is one of the tough ones. The only thing I can think of is that you had two rings. One a genuine ring that you showed in the end and the other was the trick ring which had a cut out to slide off of fingers. Thats the only thing I can think of. Apart from all that, this is a fabulous trick and I loved it. You are very talented.

this is one of the very few tricks where knowing how it's done doesn't take anything away from the magic of it - in fact it makes it even more awesome, because of the level of sleight of hand involved. I can completely understand why he likes close up magic, because this kind of magic works best without a lot of camera angles, just two persons, next to each other. if he is able to pull this off almost flawlessly on stage with a dozen cameras pointing at him from all directions, image how amazing his other tricks must be. great performance and a great magician

@TheLQ No... Just because they don't show you 30 different camera angles doesn't mean camera tricks. In close up magic like this, the angle the performer is to the audience is of course extremely important, and for the camera to betray that intended angle would be ridiculous. As long as the camera angles shown are in line with what penn and teller see, it's not important.

@TheHeadincharge

2 жыл бұрын

@TheLQ Of course, but your error is in your assumption of WHY those cuts were made. The cuts are made to make the trick watchable on TV, not to cover up bad tricks… Sometimes they miss an angle or get the wrong angle and have to reshoot a part, it happens, but Vegas actually has pretty strict rules on these shows and there’s no funny business in terms of the trick simply being clever editing.

Garrett, you’re such a cool dude. Good to see someone so down to earth! 🧞‍♂️

I loved when he asked Teller to examine his hand.

Incredible performance

Pure slight of hand and it was very well executed. I believe Penn's play on words implied that there were multiple rings and the slight of hand occurred when switching between the two. They didn't catch the switch during the performance and that's why he was rewarded with the trophy.

Yes. It's 1 and a half ring. One ring is a real normal ring and one is the same ring just cut in half. Each time he has the ring on a finger he carefully only shows one side, because the other one is non-existent. This is why he keeps holding the ring on tellers hand, because if he wouldn't it would just drop down because it's just one half.

I caught how one of them was done - 4:37 he puts the ring over the top of one finger but then moves it back up before mimicking the action of it going down but used sleight of hand to move it to the next finger during the slight upwards movement and it actually goes down on the finger it ends up on but unless you look really closely your brain assumes he slid it down on finger it was on originally. Dunno about the rest though.

Took me a while to realize but it really is just amazing sleight of hand, more sleight of fingers than anything, your hand maneuverability on the detaching fingers gag is honest the most impressive part of the whole act. Doing it in front of Teller is even more incredible as he must have felt something in his hand that you had to cover up so precisely he was convinced it was the ring and not you.
