The core component of this show is that P&T don't *want* to catch people out. They do catch people, all the time, because them's the rules. They're consummate pros, and exceptionally knowledgeable, and if you can't fool them, tough - they're going to say so. They'll settle for "We know how you did it, but it was beautiful to watch" because they have the respect that all craftsmen should have for one another, and find joy in inspecting a near-perfect piece of work. But what they really want is to be amazed - and they don't mind letting it show when it happens.

At some point, probably when the camera wasn't looking, he swapped the deck with a deck that had dirty looking backs on one side and clean on the other, except for the top card. Then to 'change' them he took the top card off and slid it into the deck, when he lays the clean cards out on the table you can see the dirty card mixed in. At 5:11 you can see when he sets the deck down he turns it over, which should be face up but it still shows the backs.

The signatures are proportionally different so there's no transfer going on, and while the second guy method is a possibility, I'm going to say that didn't happen here for the following reason. Rachel Wax's act on the very same show relied on an obviously prepared signature. I believe the producers are assisting some of these magicians with their performances (to get more people on the show, they're really starting to pad it out with repeat performers) and that Alyson has been instructed to do things in particular ways. She signed both objects the exact same way, lengthways across it and in proportion to the dimensions of it. In Rachel's case she was kind of limiting her options, but with Kolos she was already signing the card before Kolos told her how to.

The whole trick is based on a wonderfully timed slight of hand and forgery (the signature). The switch of the cards for the last part of the trick was done while Alison was signing the card, so in fact the whole time he was playing with different deck of cards (two-sided, one "old", other "new"), which he just rotates for the last part and only leaves and then takes away the first card (the "old"). He tries all the time to hide the other side of the cards, but closer look at 4:37 clearly shows that the cards are two-sided.

The "fool" doesn't have to be the act, nor even a specific trick, but just something they are unsure of. There's also an adjudicator off set & if the fool isn't really one it will be denied by the adjudicator. There's been couple acts where that's happened, as well as the several acts where Penn & Teller said they weren't fooled but it then comes from adjudicator that they were, as P&T "code words" were wrong suggestion. Alison has an ear piece & being spoken to all the time. Some of the corny line she sometimes says after the act are told to her. Though many are hers also. Been watching these (full episodes) from since before Alison started hosting, when Jonathan Ross stated hosting, & have noticed a lot re the production.

If you play the handling of the cards very slowly and freeze frame at the right time, you see a friendly and magical leprechaun granting Kolos the ability to move while time is frozen. He then takes a brand new deck out of his jacket and carefully traces Alison's signature. That, or each card is rigged. Not with a mechanic, obviously, but with the magic of the God of Misschief himself, Loki.

Everybody caught the fact that the signature was not the same. I guess P&T also did...But how did he replicate the signature? I didn't catch any force on the 7 of diamond, so the signature must have been replicated on the fly. This is for me how P&T didn't find any answer. There could have been a pack switch at 2:29 when during the cut on Alison signing the card. But if such a switch really happened, P&T should have caught it and then the whole trick would have become quite trivial to understand.

The signature moves on each card reveal. When she first signs it, when held sideways she dots the i in her last name just to the left of the top right diamond and on all subsequent cards the dot of the i is in a different spot. Also the size of the signature, the alignment on the card, and how bold the lines are also change.

So, most people noticed that the last two signatures are faked (and also different from one another). As it's very unlikely that he's had 104 cards prepared, my best guess is that there's an assistant beneath the table who signed the 2 correct cards and loaded them in the box they handed to Kolos halfway through the trick, or that there's some stamp/ink-transfer tomfoolery going on. 🤔 It's really a bit of a shame that the signatures are so obviously different, the trick is amazing nevertheless but were they more similar it would have been even more effective. 😍 Anyway, the key moments of the trick, if I managed to suss them out correctly: 🕵 2:30 - offscreen deck switch from the normal aged deck to a so-called doubleback deck of cards - where each card is printed with 2 backs, in this case one side looks like an aged back of the card, the other side looks like a brand new back of the card. For the whole rest of the trick, he is using that doubleback deck, even though the reveal comes at the very end. You can confirm it's a doubleback deck for a split second here and there during closeups, at 4:37 for example. 2:40 - quick card switch to keep the signed card at the top of the deck, while he throws a random card in the middle pretending he threw the signed one. 3:06 - he quickly sticks the top card from the deck (the signed card) to the bottom of the box before he says 'allison come can you see it' 3:13 - he flips the box and pulls out the signed card from underneath 3:46 - after he places the card in the middle and starts dropping the new batch of cards from above, you can see a gap forms which stays there even after he 'squares everything up real nice'. I suppose it could be as simple as just a piece of rolled up blue tack or whatever he snuck in, just to keep that separation. At 3:52 you can barely catch he's sneaking the card out, he then cuts the deck and sticks the signed card underneath the fan of cards he makes in his right hand. 4:08 - he grabs the box with his finger beneath the left fan, and drops the signed card which he was holding beneath the right fan. 4:12 - possibly the moment he quickly ditches the box over the edge of the table? bad camera angle to catch it better 🤷 4:15 - the table is conveniently just the right height to hide his hand, which is now grabbing the new box, preloaded with 2 faked signed cards (one aged and one new). At 4:21 you can see the awkward hand position, he's holding and hiding the new box, and at 4:23 he is just revealing it. 4:55 - obvious faked signature is obvious. 5:14 - he flips the deck 180 degrees after tapping the box. So far, all the aged backs were facing up, now the brand new backs are facing up (except the very top card, which is there to hide that fact) 5:22 - just flips the box, nothing special 5:30 - he slips the very top card to the bottom and that's it. He has already flipped the deck 180 degrees 15 seconds earlier so all the other cards are facing the right way and ready to be spread out. You can actually see the aged card that he slipped from the top peeking as the second from the bottom at 5:33 5:42 - this card was also in the box since 4:15 Overall this was one of my favorite tricks on the show, very clever and wonderfully executed. Well done Kolos!! 👏👏👏

It's not unlikely that he had prepared cards at all. There have been plenty of acts on Fool Us that have gone to great lengths to have as many outs as possible, there's no reason it couldn't happen here. Alyson's signature is well known. Unless the performer specifically asks Penn & Teller to come up, they're always going to get Alyson as a participant because there's literally nobody else. There was even another act on the exact same show that used a faked signature of Alyson's that was obviously prepared ahead of time. And it's not ink transfer going on, because the signatures are proportionally different from each other.

They're consummate pros, and exceptionally knowledgeable, and if you can't fool them, tough - they're going to say so. They'll settle for "We know how you did it, but it was beautiful to watch" because they have the respect that all craftsmen should have for one another, and find joy in inspecting a near-perfect piece of work. But what they really want is to be amazed - and they don't mind letting it show when it happens.

At some point, probably when the camera wasn't looking, he swapped the deck with a deck that had dirty looking backs on one side and clean on the other, except for the top card. Then to 'change' them he took the top card off and slid it into the deck, when he lays the clean cards out on the table you can see the dirty card mixed in. At 5:11 you can see when he sets the deck down he turns it over, which should be face up but it still shows the backs.

The signatures are proportionally different so there's no transfer going on, and while the second guy method is a possibility, I'm going to say that didn't happen here for the following reason. Rachel Wax's act on the very same show relied on an obviously prepared signature. I believe the producers are assisting some of these magicians with their performances (to get more people on the show, they're really starting to pad it out with repeat performers) and that Alyson has been instructed to do things in particular ways. She signed both objects the exact same way, lengthways across it and in proportion to the dimensions of it. In Rachel's case she was kind of limiting her options, but with Kolos she was already signing the card before Kolos told her how to.

The whole trick is based on a wonderfully timed slight of hand and forgery (the signature). The switch of the cards for the last part of the trick was done while Alison was signing the card, so in fact the whole time he was playing with different deck of cards (two-sided, one "old", other "new"), which he just rotates for the last part and only leaves and then takes away the first card (the "old"). He tries all the time to hide the other side of the cards, but closer look at 4:37 clearly shows that the cards are two-sided.

That was so clean dude. I can only barely follow it even in super slow motion. Unbelievable. You could legit perform alot of that at half speed and people still wouldnt see it. Kudos!
Just from watching it, I noticed that Alison’s signature was different.
I can figure out 85+% of the routines on FU and I have a very good idea about the additional 10%, but about 4% fool me on some level and less 1% totally baffle me. This is one of those. BUT, unlike P&T, I have the ability to watch this more than once, I have the ability to look at things I did not look at the first time, plus I have the ability to slow things down. After doing all of that, I did see something, but I am still completely stumped at this. What a beautiful and entertaining routine. Bravo!

3:05 he puts to top card on the bottom of the box. The top card is her card. He put her card on the top of the deck when, after he puts her card back in the deck, he does a fan of the cards in 2 fans, then when we reassembles the fanned cards, he pinky breaks where he had dropped her card, then puts that pile on top, so that her card is on top of the deck.
Well done. May the magic STAY with you!
As soon as I saw the pin on your suit, I knew you will do something amazing, congratulations 🎉❤
I saw the sleight of hand and the moves with the grandfather trick. I saw some of it with the father's trick, but then Kolos just got incredibly smooth with it. But with the signature on the new card, that was phenomenal. Loved the performance. I think it'd be a heck of a fun time to watch a full length performance in Budapest! Bravo, Sir!

Yeah. Its a good routine, but I can't imagine that could've fooled them, unless they were just down to guessing at the specific signature method and decided to let it go, rather than have a technical judgement. The new deck reveal seemed a little sloppy, but thats pretty tough to do on camera. I can get away with that move 100% of the time, with actual people and it even looks good in a mirror, but when I watch myself on video, I always cringe. Especially when its loud, like this was 😬

@@springbloom5940 Penn & Teller aren't watching it close up on youtube. From that distance wouldn't be able to see the signature well enough. Yes they have hand-monitors but as are looking mainly at stage would've missed it on the monitor (and don't get a 2nd chance). Teller wouldn't have that amazed look otherwise. The "fool" doesn't have to be the act, nor even a specific trick, but just something they are unsure of. There's also an adjudicator off set & if the fool isn't really one it will be denied by the adjudicator. There's been couple acts where that's happened, as well as the several acts where Penn & Teller said they weren't fooled but it then comes from adjudicator that they were, as P&T "code words" were wrong suggestion. Alison has an ear piece & being spoken to all the time. Some of the corny line she sometimes says after the act are told to her. Though many are hers also. Been watching these (full episodes) from since before Alison started hosting, when Jonathan Ross stated hosting, & have noticed a lot re the production. As well as am in entertainment industry so know production tricks. Must easier to notice/work out lol, than much of the magic. I know a magician Simon Coronel who was on Fool Us & Penn & Teller weren't fooled. However Simon was given us a fool us trophy a year later (when able to go again to the U.S.) as P&T had made a wrong assumption while on-air, & realised it after the episode was recorded

Penn and Teller said it many times, most of the time they catch 90% of what the magicians are doing but like they said; even though they know how the tricks were done, it's a matter of them not seeing what shouldn't be seen (eg. obvious double lift/obvious gimmick used etc). so the "fooler" job is to hide every possible "logic" regardless if P&T knows how it's done 👍 Hope it helps to those saying the signature was changing which i saw too!

Okay, I think most people (including Penn & Teller) noticed that each 7 of Diamonds isn’t the same (Her signature getting bolder and appearing in different spots). The real “Magic” of it, is when he started “his” trick. Changing a whole deck of cards from old to new within a second is quite astonishing. His slight of hand game throughout the whole performance is super impressive. Also, very curious how he got Allison to pick the 7 of Diamonds. Definitely a mind game with that, but curious as to how that worked without any psychical touch. Great trick & magician!

If you play the handling of the cards very slowly and freeze frame at the right time, you see a friendly and magical leprechaun granting Kolos the ability to move while time is frozen. He then takes a brand new deck out of his jacket and carefully traces Alison's signature. That, or each card is rigged. Not with a mechanic, obviously, but with the magic of the God of Misschief himself, Loki.

Everybody caught the fact that the signature was not the same. I guess P&T also did...But how did he replicate the signature? I didn't catch any force on the 7 of diamond, so the signature must have been replicated on the fly. This is for me how P&T didn't find any answer. There could have been a pack switch at 2:29 when during the cut on Alison signing the card. But if such a switch really happened, P&T should have caught it and then the whole trick would have become quite trivial to understand.
Gratulálok! Gyönyörűen kivitelezett trükk és egy jól megérdemelt trófea :)
Alyson, You make this show. Great hosting job!
I have always wondered something about P&T. I know that they like explaining how older acts or tricks are performed so that it inspires magicians to evolve their acts and not rely on the comfort of what came before. I always wondered what their time frame was before they considered an act or trick old enough to highlight.
The signature moves on each card reveal. When she first signs it, when held sideways she dots the i in her last name just to the left of the top right diamond and on all subsequent cards the dot of the i is in a different spot. Also the size of the signature, the alignment on the card, and how bold the lines are also change.

compare the signatures with a video editor and you will see they are exactly the same handwriting. They are only different in intensity and position on the card, meaning the trick was done with some kind of transfer tech P&T are not aware of -- thus fooled.
Well, the signature on the new card was different on the first sight (thicker stroke, closer the right edge), but obviously it's not that hard to fake Alyson's signature beforehand. The real question is - how was it the 7◇? My best guess is a helper below the table loading him the correct card

Congratulations! That was fabulous.
So, most people noticed that the last two signatures are faked (and also different from one another). As it's very unlikely that he's had 104 cards prepared, my best guess is that there's an assistant beneath the table who signed the 2 correct cards and loaded them in the box they handed to Kolos halfway through the trick, or that there's some stamp/ink-transfer tomfoolery going on. 🤔 It's really a bit of a shame that the signatures are so obviously different, the trick is amazing nevertheless but were they more similar it would have been even more effective. 😍 Anyway, the key moments of the trick, if I managed to suss them out correctly: 🕵 2:30 - offscreen deck switch from the normal aged deck to a so-called doubleback deck of cards - where each card is printed with 2 backs, in this case one side looks like an aged back of the card, the other side looks like a brand new back of the card. For the whole rest of the trick, he is using that doubleback deck, even though the reveal comes at the very end. You can confirm it's a doubleback deck for a split second here and there during closeups, at 4:37 for example. 2:40 - quick card switch to keep the signed card at the top of the deck, while he throws a random card in the middle pretending he threw the signed one. 3:06 - he quickly sticks the top card from the deck (the signed card) to the bottom of the box before he says 'allison come can you see it' 3:13 - he flips the box and pulls out the signed card from underneath 3:46 - after he places the card in the middle and starts dropping the new batch of cards from above, you can see a gap forms which stays there even after he 'squares everything up real nice'. I suppose it could be as simple as just a piece of rolled up blue tack or whatever he snuck in, just to keep that separation. At 3:52 you can barely catch he's sneaking the card out, he then cuts the deck and sticks the signed card underneath the fan of cards he makes in his right hand. 4:08 - he grabs the box with his finger beneath the left fan, and drops the signed card which he was holding beneath the right fan. 4:12 - possibly the moment he quickly ditches the box over the edge of the table? bad camera angle to catch it better 🤷 4:15 - the table is conveniently just the right height to hide his hand, which is now grabbing the new box, preloaded with 2 faked signed cards (one aged and one new). At 4:21 you can see the awkward hand position, he's holding and hiding the new box, and at 4:23 he is just revealing it. 4:55 - obvious faked signature is obvious. 5:14 - he flips the deck 180 degrees after tapping the box. So far, all the aged backs were facing up, now the brand new backs are facing up (except the very top card, which is there to hide that fact) 5:22 - just flips the box, nothing special 5:30 - he slips the very top card to the bottom and that's it. He has already flipped the deck 180 degrees 15 seconds earlier so all the other cards are facing the right way and ready to be spread out. You can actually see the aged card that he slipped from the top peeking as the second from the bottom at 5:33 5:42 - this card was also in the box since 4:15 Overall this was one of my favorite tricks on the show, very clever and wonderfully executed. Well done Kolos!! 👏👏👏

It's not unlikely that he had prepared cards at all. There have been plenty of acts on Fool Us that have gone to great lengths to have as many outs as possible, there's no reason it couldn't happen here. Alyson's signature is well known. Unless the performer specifically asks Penn & Teller to come up, they're always going to get Alyson as a participant because there's literally nobody else. There was even another act on the exact same show that used a faked signature of Alyson's that was obviously prepared ahead of time. And it's not ink transfer going on, because the signatures are proportionally different from each other.
