I went on open mic night. The venue is a stripped down warehouse on haunted land surrounded by poison oak. A guy just finished singing a song about a grilled cheese sandwich, and now there's a guy doing what's clearly his first fire eating act. I think he's got that disorder where he can't feel fear. Very good show, would go again. ★★★★★

Did you miss it? Brian broke down his fire eating routine: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y5TVlWWoitiFhpI Not only did Brian break the routine down, he’s also giving away THE book on fire-eating for the next 48 hours at gimme.scamstuff.com. Practice safely and with proper supervision! Congrats to the winners of last week's Wallet Lock-Pick Set giveaway: Julian Seabury, Eden Beales Harper, Carlos Gonzalez, Grant Ng, Zaid Ammari, Sinjin Rushton, Ethan Gerber, and Brendan Keller (we will contact you via email within the next two weeks)

I tried getting the book last time, but the link never made it to my email :(

[@altogumanator3000]

Thank you

[@murk1e]

Really well done to the MurphMan

[@KingsPhotographySolutions]

Just signed up for the book. 😁 Can't wait to get started. 😉🔥 P.s. I'm a blacksmith, do you think being very comfortable and respectful of fire, will help with fire eating? Or is a little fear healthy? 😅

[@macintalkshow]

Veteran firebender teaches the current Avatar some basic techniques (100 AG, Colorized.)

[@wren7195]

That Avatar is actually the Good reincarnation of Count Dooku, apparently. He had an unnatural, if imperfect, actuation of the technique through years of osmosis via Brian next to his own ridiculous, powerful potent-pun-tency.

[@socializedbreakdown5193]

I love how Jason just nonchalantly bullshits Brian’s whole script, and you can hear Brian in the back losing his mind laughing through it all.

[@MakeItWithCalvin]

Right next to Brian just shredding Grilled Cheese!

[@popcornchicken9762]

That got me. I laughed so hard

[@Badguy292]

Yes lmao, it was amazing hahah!

[@pwnmasteh]

The pivot to the double eat was super slick though.

[@MySpaceBarsBroken0o]

​@@pwnmasteh Brian's reaction to that was perfect too. You could tell he was impressed by the recovery, and totally wasn't expecting Murphy to skip the single and go straight to the double.

[@TYKUHN2]

"Now normally one of these goes out, so I'll have to put them both out" Not a bad transition for a failed stunt really.

[@wyattreed4024]

Yeah that was smooth as hell.

[@Anklejbiter]

yeah, followed by (seemingly) genuine surprise by Brian.

[@gold4963]

That was actually really awesome.

[@Metalhammer1993]

That's the art behind it. If you screw up. The Audience shouldn't know. Best thing I saw was in our school musical. A buddy forgot his line in the premiere and improvised. A girl shouted at him "why do you boys always need to be right?" Piet "because we are." We decided on the spot to keep that line over the original

[@calatwork7308]

@@Metalhammer1993 what was the original line?

[@IceDragon978]

Watching Jason ace the training and then mangle the routine is so on brand and entertaining.

[@shreya...007]

Lol that's me with card magic Practice- I'm an expert Performance- Idk what I'm doing

[@kostiemuirhead8187]

That's any kind of performance in a nutshell. You can nail everything forward and back in practice and then somehow as soon as the record light comes on you feel your ability halve.

[@x-raybuffet3638]

I don't think I'm supposed to like Jason's act more than Brians, but I do.

[@eragonawesome]

Brian's is a warmup, Jason's is a full show

[@coopnlane]

I'm pretty sure Brian does too

[@Colbartson]

It's the difference of someone who knows what they are doing and someone who doesn't but can compensate with comedy

[@slyvesterakaspookmcskull6113]

Brian going absolutley mental in the backgorund during Jason's performance was the best

[@Steiveplays]

These two are the epitome of best friends and I love it. It's insane how supportive Brian was during the performance.

[@rainey2045]

i love it when brian just casually grabs the fire while talking as if its second nature to him because it is

[@SatanistSin]

Brian: Oh dear! That's bad. Jason: Sir, calm down. It's fine. I'm trained by a professional. Me: _dead_

[@stich1960]

Would have been bad if he said "fire" instead of "fine".

"Some people have questioned the nutritional value of flame" I guarantee you instantly burn every calorie you eat

[@AFrogInTheStars]

Chris K. 😂😂 absolutely brilliant!

[@jonathanzimmer8143]

Aging, or even simple locomotion utilizes oxygen. We use it as fuel, just as an open flame requires air, its just oxidizing FAST. So literally from your conception, you are sloooowly burning to death. Yummy.

I’ve been doing fire tricks for going on 12 years now and Brian’s book really is the most complete reference ever! I periodicolly reread sections just to keep my skills sharp.

[@nuk3snip3r]

This is gold. 1. Jason's surprise and excitement when he gets it is awesome (same with Brian's surprise) 2. When he doesn't quite get it, Jason is sad in just the right way. 3. The performance at the end is incredibly impressive, and somehow better because Brian is on mic for it and is quietly, proudly losing it.

[@andrewbenge2040]

That save Jason made during the juggling bit, was perfect, and I love how you could tell Brian was impressed with the quick call

[@dr.blauerkraut]

"Okay now this one! Oh btw your teeth could crack... Now do it!" I love how nonchalant that came XD

[@FaarisFarooq]

[@fatalfries]

Jason's hand on fire thing was the pinnacle of improv

[@Maninawig]

Did Jason sign a waiver or is he doing thos on friendship points?

[@extremebenja_]

Friendship points, duh

[@WiseWik]

This was such an american question.

[@Maninawig]

@@WiseWik jokes on you. Not American, though the Modern Rogue is.... Also Brian does throw warnings enough to make you wonder if it's just for the viewers

[@giovannileo9720]

Reminds me of the old scam school spiky hair days. It’s fun seeing Brian be the expert

[@rayne7641]

I love Brian losing his shit in the background of Jason casually butchering his routine

[@seanrose1720]

This just might be the best episode ever. Fucking phenomenal performance, Murphy. It was every bit as entertaining as Brian's.

[@over00lordunknown12]

1:36 I love how Jason did the Vernon Wand Spin before Brian could even finish explaining it.

[@drpibisback7680]

When you're on stage and desperately trying to "git 'er done," you could get fucking stabbed and your first response would be to act like the stabbing was part of the bit.

[@awboqm]

I love how Jason did a satire of Brian's fire eating performance. It was in that sense so perfect even with the mishaps.

[@LukeBeks]

when the notification is faster than the subbox. neat

[@darkinertia2]

brians teaching style is so underrated, ever since i started watching scam school ive stolen his style when teaching anyone anything and i always get compliments on how good my teaching is lol its the best feeling when you say something weird that clicks with the person and theyre like "oh shit, i can do it now!"

[@everydayanadventure]

Awesome work Jason. Despite some failures you kept it going and kept up the entertainment value. Very cool. Also very impressed at how Brian has been willing to give away his book just so people are that much safer just in case they actually try this on their own.

[@maartenbamelis9581]

I love how Jason appreciates the seriousness of this training and does little joking throughout all of it.

[@troyjeffrey4311]

This was awesome! It showed just how much of a master Brian is at this and it showed Jason is hilarious even when worried/distracted. That improvised Twice the Flame was badass!

[@karimjaw20]

Best episode yet! I was laughing so hard watching Jason failing every attempt to extinguish the torch in the show, and hearing brian laughing in the background.

[@carlosmarques8380]

So did jason nail the classes and mess up the presentation? XD he did well tho, when his hands got on fire he staies really calm

Great job Jason, and great job teaching Brian...you two are awesome.

Brian and Jason need to go on a survival weekend together somewhere, building shelters and fires and messing around.

That was awesome, Jason has a fall back plan now. Master Comedian Fire Eater.

[@Texfire]

That's the bravest thing I've seen in a long time. Where he ate the fire, man's oldest enemy and friend? No, where he gave a public performance of a skill he literally learned hours before.
