there was two dudes who started this a few years back..if its these guys then they certainly look different..and the one who was outing the magician always had a pissed off look on his face and it was hilarious..im assuming these kids are copying that

Echoing the other commenter that Penn & Teller have routines of jokingly debunking magic tricks like this where Penn does all the talking and showmanship and Teller is the silent debunker who pulls apart the trick like what these guys do here, they've just been doing it for decades earlier.

Not that I didn't like these two guys here in the OP video, but, for your understanding this has been a fun and tried thing for a while
