Penn and Teller just showed us how much class they have! Great ending!

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.

A very rare retraction by Penn & Teller! Congrats Ben! It happens but I know the producers confer with them about what they thought it was and what it was. I think (to my knowledge) this is the 4th time this has happened! Congrats for doubly fooling them!

Not just respect to P&T for recognizing they were fooled, but also major props to to you for taking the first (alleged) loss as a true gentleman even though you weren't 100% sure they knew your method. Also, amazing trick and presentation. World class stuff, nicely done!

Ben, what a WONDERFUL voice and presentation style you have! Your energy is confident but not cheesy, clear but not condescending, and fun without being frivolous! I'm SO impressed!

Many watch Penn and Teller for the tricks, some for the comedy...but most for the class. Who would expect that a pair of illusionists would be so honest, even to the point of admitting they were wrong? Well Done, Mr Jackson.

Thank you for not spoiling the ending in the title! Also, super cool of P&T to go back and make up for their mistake. Super cool routine. I was blown away.

What makes this trick so amazing is the many layers of deception used to hide the method from the crowd. This makes me love PENN and TELLER even more.

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!

I was so disappointed when you didn’t get the trophy, so imagine my surprise when you did! Congrats!!! 🎉🎉🎉

The absolute brilliance of this show is the fact that Penn and Teller can just sit comfortably waiting and remembering all of the magic tricks from around the world that they see. They are building the ultimate war chest of the best tricks.

Class from Ben for not debating the masters on stage, and props to the masters for making sure they got the right call in the end.

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.

What really happened: Teller wrote what they think the trick was in Latin but Ben did not understand what was written. So backstage they asked him about it again and they learned that they were actually fooled.

Man, the patter and presentation is as smooth as silk. When I think of a good magician this guy is the type of magician I think of. Quick, intelligent and eloquent. And all this is without the trick which had me 100% fooled. Great things await this guy.

This is probably the best trick I've seen this season.

Bravo to Penn and Teller for keeping this show as fair as possible! Thanks for the video :)

I had a feeling when they said you didn't fool them that you were quite sure you did but basically had to take the high road. Good for you.... On ALL that! Wishing you continued success... Seriously though, being a doctor, museum director and all that... Having that trophy must be the coolest feeling of them all. Congrats!

You fooled them, and you fooled me! Really classy act. And this clip really highlights the excellent showmanship AND sportsmanship of this show, everyone behaving with such grace. Ben, the boys, the whole lot. Bravo!

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.

Well done! Its cool to see Penn & Teller being honest and reward you the trophy.

Great routine, greak tricks, fantastic script and amazing presentation. I am stunned by many performances on Fool Us, this was one of the moste enjoyable ones by far.

Yes!!!! So cool Ben! Congrats! He’s been working this gift of his since we were kids. Happy for you man!

Amazing. Great Job. Mind blowing

Truly beautiful - thanks for sharing this! Mesmerizing work,.

Congratulations! I almost turned this off when you said you didn't fool them but I'm so glad I didn't!

Seeing something like that makes me feel the way I felt when I first saw Penn do the "Is THAT your card?!" trick where he plunges a knife through his hand. I was absolutely flabbergasted! I like feeling like I'm seeing genuine magic and this made me feel that way! Thank you!

The best of the best admiting they were wrong. I know some politicians who would learn a lesson from this video. Admiting you were wrong dont bring down your value. It shows the world your integrity which is truly in need right now.

Congratulations! Very entertaining! Beautiful routine!Loved every minute of it!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Great presentation Ben

HOLY MOLY!!!!! It was not only a great trick, but also an exceptional presentation!! So smooth and inspiring.

Next level stuff! So glad you got the trophy!

Unbelievable! Well done Ben! Rooting for you good sir! So happy to see you getting noticed. I can’t imagine how much work goes into making everything so seamless.

What a wonderful routine & the ball of yarn in the glass jar baffled me. I look forward to watching more of your performances. ps) congrats on the win!!

Heck yeah, Ben! So happy for you. I watch a fair amount of Fool Us, and I was able to keep up for awhile. The ending of your trick was definitely a twist for me.

This was just amazing!! I sincerely applaud your dedication to your craft and your presentation was beyond perfect. Well deserved!!

That is the DEFINITION of CLASS and HONOR! It could have ended when he left the stage. Kudos for making sure they got it right.

Fooled me lol….well done, thoroughly entertaining Sir!

Its very good to know they check their hypotesis. Serious commitment for serious magic.

Congratulations my fellow Texan 🤩🤩🤩🤩

Secret aside, this was a beautiful performance. Ben has stellar patter, that fluid and entrancing to a degree. A great story teller. Just a great routine.

this was one of those moments where I was in awe of the trick and as much as I love Penn & Teller, I so hope they don't how it's done. Two big wins here, Ben - that seemed utterly impossible & Penn & Teller - magic with integrity, pure class

This is one crazy episode, it was awesome

Priceless!

This show is not the same without Alyson.

He's like the Tom Cruise of magic. Also, don't give up so easily just because these two guys are "the smartest in the room" 🙂

Outstanding

That was incredible.

From a fellow Houstonian - that was a BEAUTIFUL performance!! I gotta get back to HMNS to see you in action!

Impressive routine!

Class!!

Well done, bro.

That was really good.

I got the first move only because I already know it. Then, I was lost. Amazing routine.

I loved this! I was surprised that P&T "figured it out" but was very happy to see that they corrected their mistake and gave you the trophy that you definitely earned. Great routine and I hope to see a lot more.
