When the Polish magician impaled the morning show host's hand


on the nail in the bag was anyone remind of the trick on the first series of Fool Us where Penn said that for ANY magician to put a participant in REAL danger is highly unethical?

Don't know if your serious, but that incident was clearly a joke.

Hands tend to bleed when impaled, she also starts screaming too early.

If it is what I'm thinking of, it looked real. May not have been. Penn specifically says that trick can and has gone wrong and people have been injured.

I am serious. Not a joke. I believe that incident to be a trick that went horribly wrong. Even if it was meant to "go wrong" I would think that would be the end of the magician's career because that will follow him around forever.
