  1. I remember my first magic show. I actually couldn't believe a pigeon was made from a handkerchief. And that pigeon even disappeared!

  2. I saw rhis ad when I did not know who was Penn and Teller. I sewrched for them and realised teller dont talk. Then I saw this video again and my brain turned

  3. Took me a solid 10 seconds to realize that was Teller's voice and not some voiceover. I know he's American, but I always expected a slight englander/british accent

  4. this is very beneficial, thank you so much for this. i personally think that the all access pass is not worth it and you can ceck my channel for a secret way to buy only ONE CLASS.

  5. Apart from the obvious "elephant in the room" bit involving a talking Teller, it is quite amazing to find out that 50 million people in the world are still interested in magic!

    Last year, I went to a 10 year old kid's birthday party, and his parents hired a local magician to entertain the kids. Now, this local magician was absolutely killing it…I mean, I have watched magic for a long time now (even learnt enough to call myself an amateur magician), and the guy was performing a variety of tricks which I knew were incredibly complex, and pulling them off expertly. Sadly, the kids – the 8-12 year old kids in attendance – were more interested in the contents of their mobile phones, and some of them were even booing during the performance, some of them were looking up those tricks on YouTube even during the performance itself!

    I was like, "Do you kids even know how hard that trick was?? To actually learn it, and then perform it flawlessly?" But sadly, that day, I realized that this next generation of children being raised…they already have access to too much knowledge, which could be a good thing, but the sense of "discovering" something by oneself…that incredible feeling is being lost, thanks to technology.

  6. Why are people shocked that teller can speak when in fool us he has to communicate with penn and there are countless videos from like 5 years ago with him talking🤦‍♂️

  7. If there was a way to purchase only a single master class that would be great. Maybe down the line, I would buy more than one, but right now this is the only one that interests me. The price for the 1-year subscription is just too much to justify, though.

  8. i saw this ad on a penn and teller video (hilarious coincidence) and i decided to see what they had to say. i stopped listening to the video when i heard teller speak because my mind was too blown from that experience
