Penn has said this is the very last time they'll perform Lift Off to Love.

[u/A_Gentle_Taco]

Hey! I was actually able to figure that one out before they revealed it :D

[u/BigIdeaMagic]

I wonder when they switched to the fake legs.

When they do the cups and balls with clear cups, it's impressive because they can still fool you by doing it much faster. This is just showing how the trick is done. I'm not offended or anything, I was just expecting to be wowed at the end.

Damn that routine is hella old. They've been doing that routine since the 80s. Which explains why they'd decide to retire it.

They've mentioned also how they can't do any sleight of hand stuff anymore because Penn's thumbs are pretty damaged due to the juggling he did in his youth.

One thing I haven't seen anyone mention in this or when it aired on Fool Us is the redesigned stage for this trick. I find it awesome that they made a new stage just to perform this once (and unexpectedly twice)

[u/Cenki]

HOLY CRAP I didn't know theyd ever do it again. Yeah this has to be the last time. Teller cant do the bicycle kick, he cant stand upside down hehe

Poor Mat Franco. ;-)

Serious question. I thought magicians never revealed there tricks ? What's up here ?
