The grand old man of coin magic ! Hats off to you. The more I watch the more mysterious it gets. How proficient he is and how confident he is that he called both Penn and Teller right next to him and did all the sleight right under their noses! That too when he knows that they have read his book page by page and also perform similar tricks. He also acknowledged their skill when he said that the one last trick would have possibly fooled them. Beautiful.

Simply the best.

When the master shows up and fucks with his students... ^__^ What a stunning performance!

teller doing magic for teller

I bought 3-4 of David Roth’s DVD’s in the early 90’s. Amazing teaching. Love that I recognize some of his moves and patter. Like “hush money” and his lapel production. I Love Dave.

Awesome, amazing skill ...done by a true master. Old school magic at its best by a true legend.

When I lived in NJ, I belong to a magician's "ring" and had the pleasure at one of our end of year picnics to see both David Roth and Darwin Ortiz close up thanks to the generosity of one of our members. They were both amazing way back then and, like P&T, I read their books and bought David's video series (and still have the books and videos). For some people, knowing "how it's done" ruins things for them. But when people with the skill like Roth and Ortiz have perform, like Penn said, it doesn't matter if you "know" the moves, it is still amazing to watch mastery in carrying them out.

Well done David Roth, we had David years ago doing a lecture for us....he is one of the best coin magicians and teachers in the world. To me...he invented it :)

That's my one and only explanation for how he makes all the coins disappear, then he dumps them before overwhelming you with the coins jumping around the coat. It's kinda crazy, but that's the only thing I can think of.

I've found the most consistent foolers on P&T, or at least the ones who put on the best performances that impress them the most, are expert, professional magicians who've been doing this craft for years. In one case, Shawn Farquar, a champion card magician, beautifully fooled P&T with his own original trick. Then David Roth, who is up there with Copperfield and P&T themselves in terms of skill, showed them an original trick. Then there was Gazzo, who did the oldest trick in the book better than P&T. Even though he didn't fool them, he still did it better than two of the greatest all-time magicians could. And that's saying something because P&T's Cups and Balls are wondrous.

Absolutely love that Penn and Teller had so much respect for this gentleman that they openly admitted that had they not read his books to even have an inkling as to what he did they would have been fooled. so refreshing to see gentlemen with such a respect for their craft that they would honor a man that fathered some of the very tricks they use today.

Its good to see giants of close up magic, who are rock stars to a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of human beings, finally getting the exposure they deserve. This man created and or perfected 75% of the repertoire of modern coin magician. He did fool them hard with the vanishes at the end.

I think its a matter of knowing how its done and actually catching the magician in the act of doing it. I think that is what Penn was getting on about. They "knew", from an academic sense, how the trick was being performed, but when performed flawlessly, they just simply couldn't keep up with the sleight of hand. Hence, they were in fact fooled.

LOL. Teller looked like an amazed little kid

I think that was probably his last performance. His hands had visible tremors at some points during the trick. This was kind of a farewell performance.

Magic so good it stirs the emotions!!!

i love teller...he seems very kind

Its gone, truly gone, REALLY GONE

I have to put in my two cents here (no pun intended - well...maybe a little), Roth was (RIP) the standard by which coin magicians were judged. Did he fool Penn and Teller? No. Did they give him the trophy anyway? Yes. Why? Because had Roth not given away all his secrets, Penn and Teller would be clueless as to how he did those effects. They read his works and that's the only way they knew how he did this routine, and even Roth said he thought he fooled them with the coins and cup routine. Regardless, they gave the trophy to HONOR the man. Look at it like this - it was a lifetime achievement award from Penn and Teller.

I agree, but are we completely sure he didn't fool Penn and Teller? Others have remarked that it looks as though Penn is nodding in agreement as David says he thinks the vanishes fooled them. The vanishing method is one I haven't seen elsewhere, and it's possible it slipped by them, although I haven't read Roth's work in full, so I don't know if he explains it somewhere.

Penn looked like a kid on Christmas morning giving him that trophy, wow.

When you show everyone what you are doing and then do this again in a different method... simpe and the best. Thank you Master for this show!
