Magic

I have a new favourite TV show. It is called "Fool Penn and Teller".

It is a British show where amateur magicians try to bamboozle 2 famous American magicians.

At the end of the show Penn and Teller do a trick of their own. Today's trick was easy even for me to see how they did it.

I am befuddled when people get cheesed off when they find out how a trick is done, how they don't like the deception that is the whole point of "magic".

RE: Magic

In the UK it was called "Penn and Teller: Fool us"

I never really paid that much attention to it but my favourite illusions are wringer boxes, turning assistants into animals of some sort and flattening assistants onto card, then restoring them.
