The magician "ruining" the trick by casually preempting the end (like when he shows one hand at a time from beneath the handkerchief, supposedly _before_ he escapes) is probably my favorite magic trope. It's understated -- by acting casually about it, the magician doesn't draw attention to it and it _looks_ perfectly natural, but when you think about it, they _shouldn't_ even be _able_ to do it. It's like the magician saying "I know that you know that the trick can happen at any moment, so let's have fun with this." Danial executed this fantastically!

@arandombard1197

It's smart because we instinctively know that he can probably get out of those thumbcuffs, so by pre-empting it just before the reveal it throws us a curveball because we thought that it was going to be the final reveal. Now we're not sure what we should be looking for and we don't have enough time to speculate before he reveals the card around his two thumbs.

It's actually integral to the act as well, as you see, his English isn't so good when he is giving instructions to Allison about putting the card back. ;)

The fact that Daniel does not speak English as a first language/fluently but still managed to pull off the jokes and be so charming is impressive in itself really, and makes him a great performer. But the trick itself was also fantastic and although Penn and Teller may have figured it out, the average non-magician would still be totally fooled (at least I was) and it was really a pleasure to watch!!

I think that there were many magicians that fooled them in cheap ways, kind of abusing the system, but even tho you didn’t I know that you’re one of the most impressive magicians ever been there and that was one of the best acts in the history of the show and you could tell from penn’s heartfelt comments

Damn he has perfected this like a fine wine

Love the program, and your segment. My only beef with the show is that fooling & entertaining the audience is the real Job #1. A loss for everyone would be a dull trick that happens to Fools P&T. And I too, laughed out loud at "JJ".

Best routine I’ve ever seen. One of my favorites. Well done and thank you! ❤

Feel like the fact that they refused to say any hints out loud is an accomplishment enough. To have Penn & Teller say your trick is a GEM and PERFECTION.....I mean dang, that's some high praise

I don't even care if he fooled Penn & Teller, he was one of the most funny, charismatic and entertaining performers to appear on Fool Us and the trick was beautifully executed with an unpredictable ending. Daniel K is a natural entertainer and thankyou for this performance.

I always enjoy the gag where the person pulls a hand out that's supposed to be tied up, it just makes me laugh everytime. Well done sir, good luck in the future!!

That was amazing! Probably one of the best acts I’ve seen on this show. Hilarious, especially that Houdini joke 😂

He is genuinely warm and welcoming, open and funny. The way he touches Teller on the shoulder, and openly examines and admits he didn’t fool them, is so heart warming! What an amazing human being! And the trick was great and his comedic timing is impeccable. To top it of with his warm personality _(the way he guides his a audience guest off stage is so personal!)_ is so genuine if makes him one of the few naturals on stage, completely and utterly himself. Amazing stuff!!

Most underrated trick on Fool Us. The presentation really is perfecto!

Fantastic trick. He forced the 6 of hearts from the start. Has a button on the cuffs to loosen them. Sleight of hand to swap the deck of cards with deck of cuffs. Swapped his cuffs for a second 6 of hearts in his pocket when he handed the audience member keys to the cuffs. Excellent showmanship makes it a great show even knowing how the trick was done.

One of the best, funniest, most well-timed acts I've seen. Absolute perfection, every magician should strive to perform as well as you did today.

Well done, that was great. Never heard Penn speaking so highly of anyone's performance, and I think he's right.

Danial! Omg. Great act! I used to do a similar comedy thumb cuffs routine in the early 90s. I went away from magic and during that time i lost all of my magic things. I was left with only a few trinkets and the magic in my heart. Today i am studying my way back into magic. Until i saw this, i had forgot how well the thumb cuffs played for the spectators. This routine brought tears to my eyes. They are there still as i write this. Thank you for existing. I am going to buy the thumb cuffs and add a card routine. So perfect i wish i would have thought about it. Please except my rendition of it as a compliment to you. Maybe i will get it up on youtube. Again. Thank you for existing.

What a great show! Why can’t all TV be this good .

This just goes to show you don’t have to fool them to still have an impressive and memorable act.

Every time I watch this it gets better and better. Truly amazing performance and original act. Bravo!

the respect shown from P&T tells you everything you need to know

My English is as good as yours. So I can't explain correctly how great this was to watch.

I appreciate that Penn didn't speak in the "magician's code" because that shows respect for magicians who speak English as a second language. I think he really wanted Daniel to win in order to make the trip all the way from Uruguay worth his while and so he could have different countries represented in his show. ¡Fenomenal!

cool how when you're in the Fool us rabbit hole, you get to see so many interesting channels from so many unique magicians. Y'all got a cool community

I like this trick so much I keep coming back to watch it. It’s so good, and so much fun to watch.

Oh man, you remind me of one of my friends from many years ago. We sold cars together and absolutely loved WRC racing (and cars in general) so we got along really well. He was from Paraguay and told me about all the WRC circuits he'd been to in South America. This reminded me of him because of how insanely on-point and witty everything was. Well written, well-performed, and well paced.

I attended language school in Montevideo, Uruguay for 8 months. This made me miss not being able to return there. Oh, that was amazing!

This act is an absolute delight

Fred Darsow 1 second ago This is absolutely perfect. He was completely successful-- He says: "People forgive a mistake, but don't forgive when the show is boring." His quips are short, fast, and funny. Rarely do the magicians/comedians keep me engaged and laughing out loud; usually the jokes are not particularly funny. I actually don't really care if they fool Penn & Teller. The way he keeps his performance very kinetic, the tempo and delivery fast throughout the routine and how he warmly interacts with Alison & Manuel (even w/ Penn & Teller-- they are just sitting there aghast) helps him get a kinesthetic response of real enjoyment and amusement. For me, this is the best routine that I have seen on this show.

most likable dude Ive seen in a long time!

Love the respect they gave him , truely talented guy , showmanship does so much more for the act 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏....

Perfect in every way. The comedy, his personality and the magic was spot on Perfect. Rendimiento perfecto!

This was so good and funny that I now feel a little guilty that I rewatched it to see when the switches happened. Really well done, I laughed many times! Thanks for your performance

What a great routine, so entertaining. For those who may not get the "JJ" as Harry Houdini's initials joke: when speaking Spanish, you pronounce "J" in the manner you would pronounce "H" if speaking English. A clever joke that got a solid ja ja from me...

That was great! The way he pretends that Alison screwed up the card trick was really convincing and raised the stakes.

We need more magicians like this. Comedy and magic is a perfect pair. From the "JJ" for Jarry Joudini to reaching into his pockect with one hand (when his thumbs were supposed to be cuffed, and it went right over Allison's head) to give Allison the key to unlock him in case he cant get free. Soo much fun, great job!

Whether you fooled them or not, this is hands down the most entertaining trick in the history of the show.

My opinion hardly has the same weight as Penn's but I think he got it exactly right. Everything about that was delightful. One of the top acts I've seen on FU.
