I think Penn said once that they don't ask the magicians how they did it, but most of the time they're so excited that they will come up to them and tell them how it was done.The magician with the coin trick has me wondering if the magicians that managed to fool Penn & Teller share their tricks back stage after the show is over. I know I would if I fooled them with an original trick.
Also kinda interesting was that there was also one case where Penn did know how it was done, but he didn't know that Teller didn't know the technique, so when Teller didn't know he just assumed it must have been something else. So someone along the way fooled them without actually fooling them.
