Fire Newbie Learns 350,400x Faster Than The Pro

[@ModernRogue]

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)

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? 😅

[@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.

The pivot to the double eat was super slick though.

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.

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.

[@FinalFantasyIXIIII]

So is Jason just a natural at fire eating, or are there a few dozen attempts that were cut out?

[@azabache6058]

Definitely a couple hundred takes cut out

[@brodieknight772]

The Modern Rogue revels in failure and mistakes. They don't do this for ultimate success. If there were failed attempts, they would have absolutely included them. Just as they always have. If anything, Jason's immediate success is almost disappointing, impressive though it is.

One thing I never considered with fire-eating: probably not a great idea to have longer facial hair when you do this, right? Edited to add: And, SOOOOO much sweat throughout...and not from the fire.
