Watch Jake Gyllenhaal, Jimmy Fallon slap each other over a game of blackjack

Jimmy Fallon slaps Jake Gyllenhaal with a giant rubber hand.

On Tuesday's The Tonight Show, Jimmy Fallon and guest Jake Gyllenhaal played a few rounds of Slapjack, a version of blackjack that brings new meaning to the words "hit me." The loser of each round was smacked in the face with a giant rubber hand, a feeling that was so strange, Gyllenhaal — who struggled the entire time with the rules of blackjack — said there were no words to explain it. Watch the guys get Slapjack happy in the clip below. Catherine Garcia
