Handless magician fools Penn & Teller

Penn & Teller Fool Us Mahdi Gilbert - Amazing trick - Fooled

MagicPeaceLove writes, “The word ‘inspiring’ gets thrown around a lot but my pal Mahdi Gilbert (previously) really deserves it.

“Born without hands, Mahdi decided to devote his life to sleight-of-hand card magic, a task that seemed self-evidently ridiculous until he started inventing his own technology from scratch…and fooling some top cardmen. I’ve watched with joy and amazement these last five years as Mahdi has progressed and made a name for himself literally all around the world, culminating in his recent appearance on Penn & Teller’s ‘Fool Us,’ where he did just that.

“He’s a latter-day Matthius Buchinger and he’s set to conquer the world. Oh, and he’s a sci-fi fan, too!”
