PENN AND TELLER MOST CONTROVERSIAL MAGICIAN WHO FOOLED!

Welcome back to F us, don't blink while you try to discover our upcoming artists. I am Ivan mod. I am an illusionist. My show is called Intimate Illusions. It is in an elegant setting with lit candles and has a concert bell for the cello. it creates a soundtrack for the show and just lets you get into the feeling I want you to have about the excitement ahead. People participate in al

most

90 minutes. My magic is different because I really want to convey a message about life. like facing your fears or finding your destiny if you touch someone and it affects them.

I have done my job together with 18 randomly selected members of our audience and a joke, say hello to Ivan amode, thank you, thank you very much and now, ladies and gentlemen. for the cirus solay part of the program hey look i'm as tall as a pen this is a deck of educational flash cards each card has a state one state for each state of our amazing country we live in okay , but instead of me. shuffling I'm going to give the job to Pen and Teller so I'm going to take half of the cards and the pen if you don't mind could you take this and if you could hand it to Teller and you're going to take this half I want you to draw one for you a state pen put it in your pocket and start mixing the rest like this pen I know that you and I are parents yes, we are, isn't it interesting, ladies and gentlemen, as a father?

If you take your children to the playground, you will be able to hear your children's voice among the hundreds of other children there, as if there are no other sounds, now they are just your children. To me, when I saw that happen, I thought it seemed magical, so I'd like to demonstrate to you what that looks like in action with everyone in this theater and we're going to multiply your listening to a melody by a thousand, okay, so when you're done shuffle, gentlemen, can I have them back please? We're done, okay, wait for these, we'll leave them here and now we're going to use all the guests that are up here.

Can you all please stay wonderful and Pen? Could you get them to stand up too? Sure, yeah, so I am. I'm going to take I'm going to give you have one yes, I'm going to give some to this group of guests here can you take this group and keep them? I'm going to give this gentleman a group can you, you hold on to them and I'm going to give you uh, let's see, I'm going to give you a group, can you keep them? I want you to shuffle your little stack of cards, please, I want you to take one for yourself and hand it over. the rest of the cards to the person on your left I want you to do the same, shuffle them, pass one to yourself and pass the rest to the person on your left, okay, everyone should, could you hand one to your left?

Yes, does everyone have one? yes, this is what I'm going to try to do and everyone in this audience is going to help. I'm going to try to only hear what I want to hear, which is the people standing, including the pen, so when I count the three, everyone here, including the pen, is going to shout out the state, look at the state they're holding and then everyone sitting will do exactly the same, except you will shout out whatever state you want and try to confuse. I, so if you SE don't know the statuses, ask someone, the whole theater is going to explode because everyone is shouting a status and I'm just going to try to focus on just the guests that are standing, okay? three 1 2 3 oh god, this is going to be harder than I thought okay, so guys, if you hear me say the state and it turns out you're holding it, I need you to shout yes and then take a seat.

I'm not going. to see you so I need to hear you so I know I got you ready here we go Maine yeah sit down Alabama yeah New Jersey yeah Texas yeah Nevada yeah Florida yeah Illinois yeah this is very difficult H, where did I hear? Maryland yes Oregon yes I think I have a few more and I finished um New Mexico yes Colorado yes and Michigan yes we finished thank you very much this is amazing what happened? You didn't call my card. Do not call. Not you, it's interesting, I can hear your name, Maria, say your name, na, oh, can you tell me this?

How are you? How are you? That's interesting and then this guy here, can you tell me? this? I love you Ivon oh that was weird uh did you hear her accent the lady in the dress Hawaii the lady in the yellow California yes the lady right behind her Alaska the gentleman in the blue with the accent you have Arizona yes friend you have Connecticut yes you have New York yes pen, you yelled it I did it you did what state are you I have Rhode Island Rhode Island yes you're right I'm done I'm exhausted come on give it a big hand thank you so much go back to your seats put the cards away put the cards away let them come back .

Thank you M. it was so wonderful. Thank you. Thank you. Why did you want to come to this program? I wanted to come because, in my opinion, these two are the best and uh, yeah, yeah, I really admire them both tremendously. I understand what it takes because I'm in the same industry. I've never met them, so my little way of knowing them now is good enough for me and that's why. I wanted to come, well, let's find out what they think. Okay guys, the cashier just said that when you came out he was dying to see you work and wow, this is the best first stage setup we've ever seen.

I like it. this is so much better than a big box or something, you fill the whole stage with people and nothing is more interesting to watch than people and the cello was a great touch, it's just fabulous in every way. It's also important to say that none of those people were. plants none of those people were set up all of that was done completely the way you said it was done um yeah, having been said yeah uh we know a little bit about statistics statistics yeah a little bit about that okay and we're not sure about the last six There seems to be a little less clustering than there should have been if that was really random, okay and I don't want to say much more, uh, because I'm afraid we'll give away too much and It's such a cool trick, what more can I tell you?

Do you remember P you had them Shuffle yes okay so I just wanted to clarify that yes yes you absolutely had them Shuffle yes okay cool and you mixed them too late for you? to have done something after that correctly, but you knew, uh, you handed them out, uh, groups, yeah, and the group that you handed them out to was also the group that the last six were revealed to and, if you know what I am . saying I hope they're okay, yes I understand what you're saying, yes I have no idea what and you, so do you understand?

You remember that I shuffled, also remember that you shuffled, it is something that is an obstacle for you gentlemen, what is that? they both mixed together and I was able to split them well, but you're facing away from some of that so you could have been setting up a little bit, all you needed to know was 18 divided, oh wait, I'm listening. I'm listening to the judges, wait, it's hard for me to know if you got it and the judges listen to everything Pen and Teller say when they're arguing of course, and the judges have decided that they were misled and it's nonsense, ladies and gentlemen. , incredible.

There you go, thank you. That's fine thanks.
