Jason Suran gets Alyson to drop the F bomb on Penn & Teller: Fool Us!

Mentalist Jason Suran's routine with a swear jar gets Alyson to drop the F bomb

[@mindassassin]

Penn's code talking is like a magic trick of its own.

[@esilva8349]

Minor spoiler for Penns code talk below. Other magicians that have been on the show say Penn and Teller sit there and talk for 5-10 minutes. Allison asks like 5 questions and then it all gets edited for TV. So Penn has some time to come up with the code talk stories. He doesn't come up with it in a few seconds. Still impressive to think up stories using codes words and tying it in with their act in a few minutes.

[@WaterCursed]

I love how Alison at the end just continued the joke with the ''Don't F"$%ing go anywhere'' and it came out as a surprise to both Penn and Teller. Amazing performance, great stuff

[@solidcrewyt2734]

As a fellow performer, can I just say that this was THE best version of this trick I've EVER seen. What a brilliant way to revamp a tedious, old trick into something new and edgy! Full marks my friend, full marks!

[@keithnaylor1981]

Easy trick - while off-stage he read their minds, discovered the numbers they had not yet even thought of, added them together, and wrote the answer on the label under the lid. Either that, or he is a real magician!

[@charliehewish]

This is such a perfect routine, it’s hard to make mentalism entertaining before you get to the revelation but this was engaging the whole way through.

[@HenkJanBakker]

What a smooth presentation. Your stage presence is just magic. Loved the act. For such a small effect you sure made it look as big as it can be. Really really nice.

[@Judgement_Kazzy]

This just makes me want an uncensored version of Fool Us

[@rubenafonso]

Ahah. Great! Next time fail by 1$ dollar or so, and when you show the prediction just swear again with a F*** and put a dollar bill in the jar

[@mikemx55]

That would be really over the top. Such a great idea on top of a nice routine. Amazing.

[@CalebWilesMagic]

Jason, you killed it! Great performance and wonderful idea for a trick!

[@boxofknives]

He made all of this feel incredibly fair, great trick

[@JSeriously]

I’m not a fan of prediction stuff, but I am a fan of this act and I am a fan of you. Entertaining as hell, and I always get a kick out of repeated censored swearing.

[@RCinginSC]

Great routine . It took a few searches to figure it out. Well done.

[@zy9523]

I've seen every fool us act. This one is at the top in comedy magic, very very entertaining. I'm probably gonna watch this over and over when life gets a little less happy. Very thankful to your magic!♥️

[@grayskindablue]

Dude, you’re truly excellent. What a great premise. You’re naturally super funny. I’m so psyched to have found you! I have really bad ADD, too (and narcolepsy) so I finally got meds for them, but my brain still works differently and needs an outlet or I overthink constantly. Focusing sucks and art helps - I love painting and sketching but have been very drawn to cards lately. The fact you didn’t start till college makes me want to practice more. Keep doing what you’re doing bro, big ups.

[@N3WH0R1Z0NS]

Fellow gifted struggler xD Believe me, Delve deeper into cardestry and sleight of hand with cards cause it'll help.

[@paulab2242]

I also am ADHD (diagnosed as an adult) and how he talked about interactions being puzzles where you need to be on your toes being the only time your brain goes quiet is so true! I became a paramedic earlier in my life to get that extra dopamine and adrenaline, ha ha.

[@grogboggoth]

Not generally a fan of mentalism but this one engaged for its entire length.

[@kennethduncan4643]

This is such a good premise.

[@Onio_Saiyan]

That was wonderfully brilliant.

[@riskybusiness3413]

He was looking up at Alyson at the beginning then appeared a bit taller than her during the P and T dialog. Or was that observation just an illusion? Both his stage presence and performance were very good. Great twist on an old trick.

[@VibhorWase]

Idc how the bleep they got that, but this was one bleeping bleep of a trick.. So impressive that even Allison couldn't help dropping an F bleeping bomb!

[@SgtJoeSmith]

what a magnetic performance! now if there really was $411 in the jar and you had penn count it he wouldve really been cussing. teller may have too.

[@Bada4ever]

Obviously they are all in on it.

[@MitchellTF]

You know, the producers have a surprisingly good sense of humor, depending.

[@stevenhicks7613]

I thought I knew how this is done. But I was wrong. A super easy way to do predictions is to hide a marker of some sort on your thumb, and as you talk with someone, write what you need revealed. Then you pass it off as an earlier written guess. I thought he did the mental math of their guesses and, as he had Alyson reading the fake guess from inside the jar, wrote the sum on the lid of the jar. But he's not holding the jar lid 🤬 he couldn't have written their answers after the fact. 🤬 I have no f🤬 clue how he did it 🤬

[@Raidur7215]

Often the way they edit these videos leaves out context. Sadly.

[@Zaman730]

I was thinking the same thing. But the way he handles the lid is not possible. I am baffled

[@muratmhcoglu4184]

Fine performance, especially with the added value from cuss words :) However I was expecting to see you ask Alyson to count the money in the jar as the closer. Now THAT would have made it a great trick.

[@vg30boy]

I dont understand how Pen told him he knew how he did it.

[@tomainsworth3530]

It's the story about winning the "Al Koran medallion" because he swore a lot. Al Koran had a trick whereby a number was on the back of a Medallion. Ergo he's saying this guy used the same trick as Al Koran's technique.

[@sushibongg9057]

okay im confused asf but how does he know that they know how he did it if they never say how they think he did it??

[@NinjaKix1]

They speak in code. For example, in this Penn brought up the swearing competition w/ fellow magician Al Koran. Al Koran has been dead since 1972. It was just Penn's code speak for saying he did an updated Al Koran trick. He said he won the Al Koran Medallion, Al Korans trick was called "The Golden Medallion".

[@TheDeconstructivist]

It's all part of the magic! That... and Penn speaks in code only magicians will understand.

[@x1123x]

It's coded in Penn's story. The trick is a revamp of an old trick called "The Gold Medallion" created by the late Al Koran. Penn codes this into his bs story lol and that's how the magician knew that P&T knew.

[@eninc928]

It's a variation on the Al Koran Medallion. Penn says he won it in code.

[@orourke116]

There is a lot that is cut from what is aired. Penn talks to a panel that knows how the trick is done.
