Fooled by salt...or a nipple? Mario Lopez on Penn & Teller Fool Us!

Do you remember the cigarette guy?? He’s back!!

Can he fool Penn and Teller with a salt trick or with a nipple trick?? Watch what Mario López does on Penn & Teller: Fool Us!

“Mario López, one of the most devilish Wizards.
Pioneer of the “New Wave of Spanish Magic” where Body, Heart and Eyes walk besides Brain, Hands and Smile.
Fresh attitude (from his breve happiness) together with constant work (from his passion to everything he accomplishes) lead to his organic art.
Mario is The Art Of Magic as we have always dreamt!“

Most magicians want to trick the audience. I never got that feeling from Mario here - he just wants to entertain. Well done.

His act was like a wizard who doesn't have full control of their power.

That was sincerely the best act I've seen in all of the years of this show. Pure entertainment, acted perfectly. Even after you finished the trick you were still doing the trick. Love it!

The 218 dislikes are the team of janitors that had to clean up after him during the commercial break

[xaviertayllamin]

Acting stupid while having damn extreme good skills but Nevers try to show his talent just to make people feel happy is the most humble and kind mentality ever

[ElegantJames]

He's my favorite magician. It's not just illusions and "look what I can do" things, he adds a style of comedy mixed in that's perfection

[Mizoturi]

the thing with Mario is that his tricks can be figured out but the execution is so incredibly flawless that even if you know how you will probably never be able to do it yourself

[jrpueyo]

For those who are wondering why he looks familiar, yep he's the one with the cigarette trick

[pihi]

One of those rare performances where I don't care how it's done, it's just wonderful to watch.

Probably one of the most underrated comments about a certain deep meaning of life: "Clowns need problems to live."

“I was so happy to discover that the power maybe not in the card, but in me.” 👏🏻 Awesome line.

[SwampCabbage]

Imagine spending weeks to come up with an act using salt only to win from a nipple trick you learned as a kid lmao

[perseusarkomanis]

It really doesn’t matter if he fooled them or not with the nipple or the salt. Mario is one of the most brilliant performers out there and he certainly deserves a trophy. Great job man. Simply marvelous.

[jbass]

The janitor who has to clean up all the salt on stage watching like: 👁👄👁

[AlexBoyer]

One of the BEST Fooler EVER. Period. (Edit): One of the BEST MAGICIAN EVER. PERIOD

[Raidur]

Mario's one of the most entertaining people on the planet. Love this man.

[ingun]

Penn and Teller were not fooled by the nipple. It’s the classic way of Penn actually saying “I may have been fooled or not, but either way, the performance was so good that I’m picking an insignificant bit of the performance and use it as an excuse to give you the trophy.”. He did the same thing to Shin Lim. Penn made the pen as the excuse at that time.

[HORRORBOISHA]

What makes this so great is that Mario did use big props. He didn't have to massive machine to do things. The man just used salt, a hat, a magic wand, and his nipple. This made him one of the best acts ever on the show hands down, nipples out.

[jamescoyne]

My favorite thing about Mario is that he always seems surprised that he can perform magic
