Penn and Teller "Fool Us" Glenn Morphew Performance

[Music] one foster fee has already been awarded and we might give out another one - this next magician take a look hi I'm Glenn more whew I'm from orland park illinois back when I grew up my brother brought a friend home and he says Joe does magic would you guys like to see some magic he did probably six seven tricks really good one it's pretty much in a trance I walked to my bedroom got all the money I had to my name which was $26 so I said this is all the money I have in the world would you please buy me whatever I need to be able to learn how to do the kind of things that you were doing so that was the beginning of I do my homework after school then I'd be out mom dad pick a card pick a car tennis I'd Drive him crazy the trick I'm gonna perform tonight is a classic with an updated handling and updated presentation and I'm really looking forward to performing [Applause] magic of chicago blackhawks years now listen could you do me a favor come on over here I'm gonna need your help for a second what I need you to do is just write your name nice and big right across the middle of each of these cards and it's important I'll tell you why in a second I'm exhausted I've been spending every waking moment in a lot of moments I should have been sleeping I'm studying dr. Sheldon Cooper's work on Einstein's theory of relativity as it relates to teleportation wormholes black holes mind power and optical physics and I have to tell you this science stuff is complicated so I'm thinking rather than discuss it I'm gonna demonstrate some of the things that I've learned so the first thing it's important is that I want you to see that there's nothing in my pocket okay and I had Allison sign these cards because it's important that science experiments are done under test conditions so here's the cards that we're gonna use we have the ACE two three four five and the six of Hearts so the experiment is basically this the cards are gonna teleport one at a time from my hand to my pocket so right now the ACE is here in a second that's gonna be over here so under the cover of darkness be a Scouts so now I just have the two three four five and a six now for those of you that aren't that familiar with teleportation basically here's what happens these had 2d materialized into its atomic constituents what it was over here then it rematerialized over here and my previously to be shown empty pocket I know I'm thinking as cool as that is can you imagine what people can do this I mean let's say for example I'm the - I could be in Vegas one second the next second I could be over here and let's call it Hawaii Aloha [Applause] [Music] we're going to do something entirely different with the three I'm going to take the three and I'm the trap it right here against my thigh because then I could work it right through a wormhole and my pants now this just leaves me with the four the five and the six now I'll be honest it's a lot easier for me to find these wormholes when I'm wearing my silk loungewear but hey here's proof you could find wormholes in Wolfe [Music] all right starting to get interesting we've got three down three to go now I'm going to demonstrate optical physics and there's a good chance I'm the only guy you'll ever meet that could demonstrate this because what I have to do is move my arm back and forth so fast it just looks like it's moving super slow that's what most people do they tend not to believe me which kind of ticks me off but people start to believe once they see I just have the five and a six left see what they fail to realize is while they were sitting there thinking yeah right this guy's full of poop they missed the moment one faster than the human eye can follow I slept the four into my pocket [Music] [Applause] now I'm going to demonstrate telepathic teleportation even though it wears me out I have to concentrate focus visualize yes and I send the five now in this case I didn't send the five to the right front pocket I figured I'd send it to the left rear pocket because hey I've got a vivid imagination I send the six to a black hole somewhere in the universe it's gone forever but not forgotten and I'll be honest I sent the six by clamping because I figured hey when you get to witness teleportation wormholes black holes mind power and optical physics you should clap if not for me certainly for dr. Cooper and dr. Einstein because without those two guys I wouldn't be able to show you any of us [Applause] I don't know how you did that whatever they do how long have you been doing this this particular truck I put together about two and a half years ago Wow and then when you get the call like okay you're coming on the show did you immediately know you wanted to do this trick yeah yeah this is what it's a classic used to be as a magician in the 1900s after the 1930s 40s everybody did this trick and how you were judged was how well you did the trick I mean obviously you say it's it's that old so they've clearly seen it the facing versions of it right they haven't seen this one [Applause] the idea of a tough guy who's also a learned into gentlemen is just a wonderful thing to see on stage she's a beautiful character the way you carry it is just gorgeous it's a classic of magic cards to pocket which we've seen a zillion times but you had the cards signed had Alison sign each and every card which gives the impression she examine them you know she's she signs them no she signs them makes it all on the up-and-up and then the routine we've been we've been going through it and dissecting it with notes and notes and notes you do our favorite thing in magic the things it has to be done the magic which is you're repeating the exact same thing over and over again and you never do it the same way twice so every time you do the next trick it cancels out the trick before you're always canceling obviously everybody there's palming going on in this but it is such good palming and always when the people think it's not every time we think you get upon your flashing that you're not it's in very sneaky places no one saw that wonderful wonderful sleight of hand sometimes one cards with the pocket sometimes too so as you have cards here that look like more than they are but it moves across and cancels that we think with all of those steps we think we kind of sort of followed up a boy to be loved it was just great in every step [Applause] well I think they've been studying dr. Sheldon Cooper's was served [Applause] [Music] more cool after this [Applause] [Music] [Applause]
