Magician Shin Lim Fools Penn & Teller AGAIN with Card Magic Trick | Penn & Teller: Fool Us | The CW

Beautiful, thank you. It's just incredible. It's like watching a ballet with cards. Perfect. Oh my goodness Is this easier to come on a second time or was it harder to come? I think it's a little bit easier to come on the second time. I'm used to the theater and everything So you were supposed to come on again last season. Yeah, I severed two of my tendons on my thumb That must have been terrifying for you. Yeah, it was a challenge This is a really difficult act and so obviously while you're recovering you couldn't practice Yeah, I tried to do it with one hand, but that didn't work out. So were you Worried that your card days were over. Yeah. Yeah, definitely I mean the doctor was like you're not gonna be able to pick up a deck for two years So for me, that was pretty bad news. Well lucky for us that you recovered so well. Yeah. Yeah I'm really glad to be back. All right. Well, let's go to the guys and see what they have to say You know, we like you But you're starting to annoy us But I don't think so Well, this is our show. It's called Penn and Teller fool us Well, we're in airports and stuff and people recognize us. They ask us about you They say they saw your show on YouTube They say they saw your routine and they just loved you on there and we watched it closely the first time we were on we Watched you even closer this second time I mean, you're just so wonderful and so beautiful every move you make but we've been watching carefully and I think I can demonstrate a little something about the routine if you if you'll allow me yeah, and I if you'll allow me to step back over here if I could Just right here Yeah My name is Shin Lim I was here on season 2 I didn't expect a full pen until at all Now it's I think the most viewed video on fool us after season 2 it was pretty busy I started getting a lot of gigs and my career was taking a hugely Right after that and unfortunately, I had an accident while I was rehearsing an illusion I had severed two of my thumb tendons and I had to get the tendons sewn back together Most of my magic is sleight of hand. So I had to cancel everything. It was devastating I felt like my career was over for me. That wasn't good enough I just pushed through and I went farther than I was supposed to after just six months I was able to hyperextend my left thumb This piece I'm doing right now is about four times more difficult than the act I did on season 2 There's a 40% chance. I could mess up because my nerves are not all there yet However, if I pull this act off, I'm gonna feel very very accomplished with everything I've gone through this will prove that you shouldn't give up
