      Agreed. They always give props, whether fooled or not, and take a magicians word if he/she says "that's not how I did it," and here they followed up. They truly appreciate the art.

    I've been fortunate enough to know Ben since middle school. In every theater arts tournament and Latin competition, Ben would do make shift magic performances for all of us. He's one of the most genuine, incredible people I know. I took my wife to see him at the standing show he has in Houston, It was one of the best performances I've ever seen, we've been rooting for him a long time. Congratulations on your success, it is very well earned! Magistra Miller would be proud.

    Really, really unexpected finale. I thought they'd get it cause it wouldn't be the first time they weren't expecting a box. Sleighdini might come to mind for this one, but something tells me this is a lot more new and fresh.
    The performance itself was perfectly executed. Surgical even. Patter was clear, cut, you had 0 empty words, even when you were buying time you did it without skipping a beat.
    Marvelous routine, perfectly executed, and I don't think anyone expected the finale.
    Marvelous!

    Hey the etymology of the word clue is true! That's amazing!
    That's great, it was a bit obvious you weren't convinced at the end but wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt. I guess they picked up on that too, so wanted to make sure and asked you about it. This is why I love this show. An entire series about "fooling" is ironically the most honest show on TV.

    At the 2013 TEDx in Houston, Ben offered this thought in his keynote...
    "The secret of a great trick isn't the method. The method behind the magic often times is unattractive and disappointing. The real artistry in magic, the beauty in magic, lies in the artistry behind the scenes."
    Ben Jackson really does have that artistry. Watching him up close is simply amazing. Congratulations on being awarded 'You Fooled Us'!
    To Penn and Teller, thank you for your level of support of the art and craft of illusion, and your high integrity as demonstrated in this episode.
    Thank you Ben for keeping me amazed! You make it look so effortless.
