He obviously uses two rings. One is solid and one is open. But he changes them really quick. So in the beginning Teller only is allowed to check his right hand, because in the left hand he hides the open version if the ring.

He actually did a podcast with one of the producers of the show explaining how fool us is run. The discussion between penn, teller and the producers takes about ten minutes before they tell the producers how they think it was done, they get ONE chance to get it. If they get it wrong, they have been fooled no matter what. The producers then figure out a way for Penn to communicate how they thought (incorrectly) it was done to the performer, who says no and they get the trophy moment. Penn and Teller are at no point told how it is done until after the show, if they ask, and they very rarely do, due to professional courtesy. The producers are told exactly how it is done, and shown twice in a row so they can figure out the best presentation of the effect for the studio audience and the TV cameras, so the illusion isn’t spoiled accidentally. You also have to bear in mind that Penn & Teller only see the routine once in real time, and don’t have the luxury of replays and slow motion.

I think Penn was still speaking in code. He asked him if "that ring", the one in his hand, was gimmicked. They saw no switch which means the ring in his hand needed to be real for it to be sleight of hand. He knew exactly what he was asking. Amazing sleight of hand.
@yudodis333
@yudodis333 3 роки тому
Exactly right... When the trick is done with sleight of hand, Penn and Teller have to actually see the move for them to not be fooled.. otherwise just about every trick they could just say "sleight of hand" and never be fooled lol I'm pretty sure they've stated this before like with Shin Lim... They knew he was doing sleight of hand but they couldn't actually catch some of the moves which means he fooled them
@ewendavidhendrymcgregor1920
@ewendavidhendrymcgregor1920 3 роки тому
I'm a bit mixed on this. A linguistic victory in some context, but he still said the words ''if you can tell us that was done in anyway other than pure sleight of hand, then we're not gonna lie, you fooled us''. He didn't actually answer penns question. Just said ''That is a completely normal ring'' which means he didn't fool them, he just never owned up to Penn being right by avoiding the topic like a politician xD. 3.56 at 0.25x speed, yeah I spoiled it for myself but you can clearly see that ring open on tellers finger.

You guys are getting it. The ring at the end was real. That's all that matters. If he had a gimmicked ring or what I believe was a half ring, they didn't see the switch. One of the other replies clarifies this. They saw nothing, they made sure they said that to him. He was able to switch from a real ring to a gimmicked ring and back. That's sleight of hand and they didn't see the switch. He fooled them.

I think the key was Penn referenced "THAT ring". I think they know there was a second ring, but since he so cleanly handled everything that it was perfect slight of hand and that's why they gave it to him. Since the gimmicked ring was already away somewhere, he's not lying by saying that ring is not gimmicked. Just my thoughts.

@@sonicenamdtwice8584 I hear what you are saying, but what makes me think this is that Penn first starts, ...you have a ring that is carefully constructed.... Then at the end he specifically says that ring. The trick is impossible in the sense that a solid ring isn't going to go through Teller's finger (or anyone's), so I can only think that Penn is giving him an out. I'm probably totally wrong, it's just the way he started with a ring then switched to that ring that bothers me. Of course he may have straight up lied as you said in which case I hope someone from fool us comes out and says something since that feels wrong to let it go.

I think it is important to note that Penn's wording was "If you had that ring gimmicked in any way..." in reference to the ring given to Teller and "If it is anything other that a ring that comes apart" referring more to the trick as a hole. The first statement could have been arguably beaten with a simple swap that P&T admitted to not have been able to catch. The second statement however was more definitive and was responded to with "It does not come apart." That rules out any break in the opening up of a solid ring. I think it is safe to assume that more than one ring, or partial ring was used, but that none of them had any moving parts to them.

I watched the finger removal thing at .25 speed and you can see he bends his finger away, but he does it so perfectly so that it is always hidden either by his hand or by his other fingers. Good thing he knew what camera angle was going to be used because I imagine it would be ruined if seen from most other angles. Still, amazingly well done.

I agree with the “one whole ring plus one gimmicked (half or gapped or hinged or etc) ring”. Regarding the “the ring moves from one thumb to the other” part: Both are used. The “whole” ring on one thumb, and the “gimmicked” ring on the other thumb.

He has two rings. You can even see them both a split second (3:42) when he puts the ring on Tellers finger. For the part with his Thumb: This is doable with only one normal ring if you are as nimble as he is. That is really pure sleight-of-hand.

I think any sensible person would know that there must have been a shell or a gimmick ring in the middle of the act. The fooling part was he gave out a ring for examination seemingly without a switch. That means either the switch was really really good, or the gimmick ring was crafted very very good so it can be examined (even by Teller) without giving away its secret. To say it's a pure slight of hand, has to mean he did a switch under Teller's nose without getting caught. And that is amazing.

He is clearly using a gimmick half ring and a regular ring. His sleight of hand is near perfect while he hides the other ring. However, just as he gets ready to put the ring on Teller's finger, the revealing camera angle shows both rings being placed into his right hand. You can see this at 3:42. Teller couldn't see it, nor could Penn and the audience. It was just a fluke that the camera caught it. If you watch closely at 4:09 he pockets the gimmick .

I’ve had the pleasure of watching Garrett perform up close. He’s amazing. Even when he showed me what he’s doing, I was still in awe of his skills. It never gets old. I think he’s one of the best sleight of hand artists out there. And no, he didn’t lie. He answered Penn honestly. It’s sleight of hand. And it’s flawless. It’s like watching a Globetrotter with a basketball. Always entertaining and equally as skillful and practiced. He creates a dual reality, for sure, Jason. FYI: He’s got some talks you can find on UKposts where he talks about his philosophy of magic and it really excites me. The idea of showing something that’s not there. And I highly suggest his stuff he sells, especially Opus, if you’re interested in learning more and taking a deep dive into how to get better with magic. I could watch Opus all day but Imagination is my favorite when it comes to really shocking a person.

If he could have done this without 2 rings then he likely could ask someone for their ring and done it. The fact that he didn't suggests he had a twin ring that was cut in half. His sleight of hand skills however are epic and what won the trophy for him. Excellent routine.

If you look carefully and keep re-watching certain moments, you can see that he's able to bend his fingers back and then quickly "flip" or "snap" them back into position being straight up/out. He uses his other hand to cover this up. For example, you can see this at the 8:08 mark with his pinky finger. He uses his right hand to cover up his left pinky finger, which he is able to "disjoint" and/or bend backwards. You can't fully see this since he uses his right hand to obscure it, but you can see where the finger should actually be through the gap in his right hand. You can also see the pinky finger quickly jiggle back straight a fraction of a second later. That being said, I was unable to see how he did the tricks before the 4:10 mark. What a great magic act.

I am watching this in slow motion and he absolutely does not take the ring off the normal way, and you can see him putting it on the next finger from the bottom. I agree with the people saying that it's not a trick ring, that he uses a real ring, and that is what he gave to Teller, and also means he did not lie, but he also uses a half ring. Technically, "Does the ring come apart" can be answered with no and still be honest if you have 1 real ring, and 1 half ring. It's still incredible sleight of hand.
