Penn & Teller - Smoking/Sleight of Hand Trick

Hi everyone! Unfortunately this video has recently been claimed by CBS and they’ve blocked it in 90% of countries, so if you got here via VPN that’s what happened. Penn’s always been quite forward about how he’s okay with people posting their stuff online but I guess CBS disagrees? I cba disputing it. Anyway thanks for the notification spam over the years, it kept me very entertained and engaged 😎 Maybe one day they’ll unblock it.

Hey Teller is Amy’s dad from Big Bang Theory

I hope he didn't accidently swallow the cigarette at the end.

Everybody's talking about the trick, which is amazing enough. But what about that music? Its great and I need to know what that is

This is just fucking cool as hell.

At a young age I heard you state that you would make your billboard chart change into a magic routine.
Impressive to believe.

I wanna know where they got an endpin long enough to jack up a 3/4 bass so the nut is higher than the eyebrow on a 6'6" dude. That's the real trick.

What gets me about this routine is it's an inversion of what we're taught to understand about magic:
A spectacular effect, accomplished with a mundane method.

This trick is a mundane effect, with spectacular method.

See just because magic isn't real doesn't make it less impressive, in fact it probably makes it impressive how they manage to use slight of hand and illusion to seem otherworldly.

Yall didn't notice the lemon disappear mid air when he threw it😂

mf doing magic magic

Wtf did my eyes just view

Teller is the definition of cool

This is not meant to glorify smoking… but it sure makes you look cool as hell 😉 *slaps another bass string

Look dude, can I have a drag or not?

The Driving Crooner's cooler older brother

Seems like this bussiness is going better for Penn than selling books😂

After watching Tom mullica version. This one justnot good enough

Penn says the routine isn't intended to glorify smoking and the Teller goes on to make smoking look cooler than fuck

A work of art

I signed up to absorb asian Californian jackasss crackheads because my father smoked a pack of cigarettes in Arizona in the 80's. Also peter sellers' wife, who hired investigators, doesn't know the difference between my grandfather's army service and his daughter's husband. All she knows is that my mother, her sister in blue jeans was horrifically abused by both of those men, and not by harley quinn.

When you think the trick is easy, but the last 4 seconds hit

So beautiful and elegant.

I noticed that there was a cigarette in his ear, but everything else caught me off guard

Oh wait this is the magician duo other magicians hate because they tell the secrets.

bayağı iyi...

is anyone else coming from the good omens 2 essay?

beautiful to watch

I did catch that the light didn't look like a flame. I guess it happens too fast to be like a proper making sure the cig is lit too, which is one of the fun parts of the smoking process.

Do these cigs burn at a lower temperature than regular ones? A lot of these moves would be too hot to handle

Played cello fucking hated it i was a tiny child playing it the amount of sly talent they are displaying is crazy have a great day everyone

No, Penn. It doesn't look simple

true masters at work. Love their craft

"This is not intended to glorify smoking". Proceeds to glorify smoking.

Saw these two at Vegas this year, what a pile of shite.

BUT HOW AGAIN

Whats amazing is the first time you watch this, it looks perfect, but once they explain it and you rewatch it you actually start seeing little giveaways

I don't get the trick. Watching it the first time it simply looks like he's lighting a cigarette. I only became impressed when they explained how he did it.

This sucked

I had the honor of seeing these two perform back home, years n years ago. We even got lucky and Teller was having dessert at the same restaurant we were, two tables away. I was in my teens back then, and had the honor of speaking with Teller- and he responded audibly- he was kind and gracious. I think I remember getting his signature, but I didn’t want to draw attention to him as he was enjoying his well-deserved after-show meal with a lovely lady.

There were quite a few noticable flaws with this. I'd hardly even call this a trick.

AS A MAGICIAN: I come from the "Magic Bullet effect" Is the most elegant effect I ever seen performed. I can say that because I know second by second what happen in there. IS the most clean effect I ever seen. Plz let me know u on real life, my dear Penn & Teller.

Welp just burned my house down… so safe to say it didn’t go as planned.

I dont get what the trick even is. What is the illusion? Pretending to smoke a pencil?
