1
00:00:00,667 --> 00:00:01,601
(explosion booms)

2
00:00:01,634 --> 00:00:05,038
- Illusion, the art
of tricking the brain,

3
00:00:05,071 --> 00:00:08,375
distorting the senses,
challenging perception.

4
00:00:08,408 --> 00:00:12,579
You can't trust what you
see, even with your own eyes.

5
00:00:12,612 --> 00:00:14,347
Meet the masters of illusion.

6
00:00:14,381 --> 00:00:15,582
(explosion booms)

7
00:00:15,615 --> 00:00:19,552
(audience cheering
and applauding)

8
00:00:21,988 --> 00:00:25,458
Get ready for an incredible
night of mystical wonder.

9
00:00:25,492 --> 00:00:28,461
I'm Dean Cain and I am your
host for "Masters of Illusion".

10
00:00:28,495 --> 00:00:29,429
- [Lucy] Darling.

11
00:00:30,530 --> 00:00:31,865
- You know, magic is-
- Oh, no, no, no.

12
00:00:31,898 --> 00:00:33,099
- Lucy.
- Hi, how are you?

13
00:00:33,133 --> 00:00:34,701
- Hello.
- Do you miss me? Did you?

14
00:00:34,734 --> 00:00:36,569
- I do miss you, but we're
doing a show right now.

15
00:00:36,603 --> 00:00:38,104
- No, no, you're gonna do this.

16
00:00:38,138 --> 00:00:40,306
Okay, so, I heard that you
are very easily influenced,

17
00:00:40,340 --> 00:00:42,208
you're very susceptible
to pickpocketing.

18
00:00:42,242 --> 00:00:43,710
- No.

19
00:00:43,743 --> 00:00:45,178
- Oh, no, you definitely
are, but I can help you out.

20
00:00:45,211 --> 00:00:47,247
I'm gonna show you
a little trick, yes?

21
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:48,515
- Yes.

22
00:00:48,548 --> 00:00:49,783
- Do you have some
coins I can borrow?

23
00:00:49,816 --> 00:00:51,584
- I have, yeah, I
have some coins.

24
00:00:51,618 --> 00:00:52,552
- Amazing, fantastic.

25
00:00:52,585 --> 00:00:53,653
- Are you gonna steal my coins?

26
00:00:53,686 --> 00:00:54,988
- That is the idea.

27
00:00:55,021 --> 00:00:56,289
- That is the idea, okay.
- Wonderful.

28
00:00:56,322 --> 00:00:57,557
- There they are.
- See, this is it.

29
00:00:57,590 --> 00:00:59,092
Every time somebody
asks you for something

30
00:00:59,125 --> 00:01:01,761
you just give it to them.
This is a fool's errand.

31
00:01:01,795 --> 00:01:03,229
Can you hold your hand
like a little scoop?

32
00:01:03,263 --> 00:01:05,031
I'm gonna count these
five coins into your hand

33
00:01:05,065 --> 00:01:06,266
one at a time.
- Okay.

34
00:01:06,299 --> 00:01:07,534
- And when you get
that last coin,

35
00:01:07,567 --> 00:01:08,802
I want you to close
your hand around it

36
00:01:08,835 --> 00:01:10,136
and put it to your chest
so I can't sneak it out.

37
00:01:10,170 --> 00:01:10,937
- [Dean] Okay, good.

38
00:01:10,970 --> 00:01:11,971
- One.
- One.

39
00:01:12,005 --> 00:01:15,442
- Two, three, four, five.

40
00:01:15,475 --> 00:01:16,976
Whoa, that was pretty sneaky.

41
00:01:17,010 --> 00:01:18,445
- Right?
- Very slow that time.

42
00:01:18,478 --> 00:01:20,947
That's why it was so easy
to get that last coin.

43
00:01:20,980 --> 00:01:22,816
Can you count those four
onto my hand, darling?

44
00:01:22,849 --> 00:01:24,084
One at a time.

45
00:01:24,117 --> 00:01:28,655
- One, two, three, and four.

46
00:01:28,688 --> 00:01:30,557
- Well, I barely gave you
a chance. You know what?

47
00:01:30,590 --> 00:01:31,591
We'll give you a
chance this time.

48
00:01:31,624 --> 00:01:32,425
(Dean laughs)

49
00:01:32,459 --> 00:01:33,793
- This again?

50
00:01:33,827 --> 00:01:36,729
- One, two, three, four, five.

51
00:01:38,264 --> 00:01:39,232
Do you feel like you
got it that time?

52
00:01:39,265 --> 00:01:40,200
- I know I have it.

53
00:01:40,233 --> 00:01:41,234
- You know you have it.
- Yes.

54
00:01:41,267 --> 00:01:42,635
- Then how come it's right here?

55
00:01:42,669 --> 00:01:43,903
(audience gasps)

56
00:01:43,937 --> 00:01:45,071
- [Dean] I did not
put that there.

57
00:01:45,105 --> 00:01:46,339
(Lucy laughs)

58
00:01:46,372 --> 00:01:47,874
- Count those four
coins into my hand.

59
00:01:47,907 --> 00:01:51,678
- One, two, three, four,
and now I'm going to jail.

60
00:01:51,711 --> 00:01:53,246
- Yes.

61
00:01:53,279 --> 00:01:55,348
Darling, if you want to know
how to make them all vanish

62
00:01:55,381 --> 00:01:57,083
I will tell you, but
it is a private lesson,

63
00:01:57,117 --> 00:01:58,518
so you'll have to find me later.

64
00:01:58,551 --> 00:02:02,322
(audience gasps and applauds)

65
00:02:02,355 --> 00:02:04,357
- Lucy Darling, everyone.

66
00:02:04,390 --> 00:02:08,361
(audience cheers and applauds)

67
00:02:09,596 --> 00:02:11,431
Prepare to have your minds blown

68
00:02:11,464 --> 00:02:13,867
by a magician who
has honed his skills

69
00:02:13,900 --> 00:02:16,603
through years of
dedication and hard work.

70
00:02:16,636 --> 00:02:18,071
That's what it takes.

71
00:02:18,104 --> 00:02:21,207
He's here to show you what
real magic looks like.

72
00:02:21,241 --> 00:02:23,143
Let's hear it for Alex Ramone.

73
00:02:23,176 --> 00:02:27,147
(audience cheers and applauds)
(upbeat music)

74
00:02:27,180 --> 00:02:28,648
- That's our boy!

75
00:02:28,681 --> 00:02:31,284
Come on, puppy boy, come on.

76
00:02:31,317 --> 00:02:32,886
Come on puppy boy.

77
00:02:34,020 --> 00:02:37,390
This is MJ, this is my
cute blonde assistant.

78
00:02:37,423 --> 00:02:40,360
He is actually, if
I'm being honest,

79
00:02:40,393 --> 00:02:42,061
I'm the assistant,
he's the magician.

80
00:02:42,095 --> 00:02:43,062
(audience laughs)

81
00:02:43,096 --> 00:02:45,498
If I'm being perfectly honest.

82
00:02:45,532 --> 00:02:49,302
And the question I'm
asked all the time isn't,

83
00:02:49,335 --> 00:02:51,204
"How is the magic done?"

84
00:02:51,237 --> 00:02:53,373
The question I'm
asked all the time is,

85
00:02:53,406 --> 00:02:54,774
"How do you travel with MJ?"

86
00:02:56,409 --> 00:03:00,079
Right? Well, the truth
is, I carry him on.

87
00:03:02,549 --> 00:03:05,351
(audience laughs)

88
00:03:05,385 --> 00:03:06,286
In this.

89
00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:08,721
I'll show you what
I mean, all right?

90
00:03:08,755 --> 00:03:11,891
♪ You've got me
dancing like a fool ♪

91
00:03:11,925 --> 00:03:15,228
♪ I like you, but hey,
you're way too cool ♪

92
00:03:15,261 --> 00:03:18,598
♪ You've got me dancing like
a fool ♪ (audience laughs) ♪

93
00:03:18,631 --> 00:03:20,500
♪ I like you, but hey,
you're way too cool ♪

94
00:03:20,533 --> 00:03:24,103
(audience claps to music)

95
00:03:34,781 --> 00:03:38,251
(upbeat music continues)

96
00:03:54,734 --> 00:03:57,470
(audience gasps)

97
00:04:03,977 --> 00:04:05,745
(audience laughs)

98
00:04:05,778 --> 00:04:08,848
(audience applauds)

99
00:04:10,149 --> 00:04:13,620
(upbeat music continues)

100
00:04:19,192 --> 00:04:22,095
(audience cheers)

101
00:04:27,567 --> 00:04:31,571
(audience cheers and applauds)

102
00:04:39,245 --> 00:04:40,847
- I cannot wait to
present this illusionist

103
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:42,482
who always has me laughing

104
00:04:42,515 --> 00:04:45,518
just as much as he has
me utterly bewildered

105
00:04:45,551 --> 00:04:48,087
at how he pulls off
his magical feats.

106
00:04:48,121 --> 00:04:50,223
Let's make some noise for Trino.

107
00:04:50,256 --> 00:04:52,659
(audience cheers and applauds)
(mellow music)

108
00:04:52,692 --> 00:04:53,493
- Thank you so much.

109
00:04:53,526 --> 00:04:55,495
Thank you so much, Dean.

110
00:04:55,528 --> 00:04:58,464
This is the new Triple Trenty.

111
00:04:58,498 --> 00:05:00,700
It has three ingredients.

112
00:05:00,733 --> 00:05:04,871
Creamer, coffee and
a whole lot of sugar.

113
00:05:04,904 --> 00:05:08,441
It's $97 and guaranteed to
keep you awake for four days.

114
00:05:08,474 --> 00:05:09,776
(audience laughs)

115
00:05:09,809 --> 00:05:11,477
Check this out.

116
00:05:11,511 --> 00:05:15,014
(mellow music continues)

117
00:05:52,852 --> 00:05:55,922
(audience applauds)

118
00:06:05,732 --> 00:06:09,736
(audience cheers and applauds)

119
00:06:12,105 --> 00:06:13,306
(explosion booms)

120
00:06:13,339 --> 00:06:15,508
- Next, laughs and the
unbelievable talent

121
00:06:15,541 --> 00:06:17,677
of Maxence Vire when we return.

122
00:06:22,849 --> 00:06:25,418
(upbeat music)
(audience cheers and applauds)

123
00:06:25,451 --> 00:06:28,087
(fire roars)

124
00:06:28,121 --> 00:06:29,989
We have a performer who
would like to take us

125
00:06:30,022 --> 00:06:31,991
on little trip down memory lane.

126
00:06:32,024 --> 00:06:34,594
So let's get a glimpse
into the history

127
00:06:34,627 --> 00:06:36,796
of magic with Maxence Vire.

128
00:06:36,829 --> 00:06:41,234
(audience cheers and applauds)
(upbeat music)

129
00:06:41,267 --> 00:06:44,103
- Welcome back, here we are.

130
00:06:44,137 --> 00:06:46,606
Tonight, I will show you
the first trick I learned

131
00:06:46,639 --> 00:06:47,607
when I was child.

132
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:48,875
(upbeat music)

133
00:06:48,908 --> 00:06:53,112
Yes, and for that,
I need a paper bag

134
00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:57,383
and my magic wand.

135
00:06:58,217 --> 00:07:00,386
(audience laughs)

136
00:07:00,420 --> 00:07:04,857
Inside the paper
bag, I put an object.

137
00:07:04,891 --> 00:07:06,592
(glass clinks)

138
00:07:06,626 --> 00:07:08,928
Try to guess what inside!

139
00:07:08,961 --> 00:07:10,163
- [Audience Member]
Glass bottle.

140
00:07:10,196 --> 00:07:12,265
- Glass bottle, correct.
Are you magician, too?

141
00:07:13,132 --> 00:07:13,933
I saw.

142
00:07:13,966 --> 00:07:15,334
This is a glass bottle.

143
00:07:15,368 --> 00:07:18,171
Empty glass bottle, but
it's glass bottle, yes?

144
00:07:18,204 --> 00:07:21,073
And of course, the empty bag.

145
00:07:21,107 --> 00:07:22,542
You want to check
it? Check inside.

146
00:07:22,575 --> 00:07:23,676
Ah!
- [Audience Member] Ah!

147
00:07:24,610 --> 00:07:25,711
- Oh no, it's not completely...

148
00:07:25,745 --> 00:07:26,779
Oh, wait a second.

149
00:07:26,813 --> 00:07:28,114
I have something on it.

150
00:07:28,147 --> 00:07:29,782
Come on, baby.

151
00:07:29,816 --> 00:07:33,319
You can come, come,
come come. Aw, look.

152
00:07:33,352 --> 00:07:34,787
(audience gasps and applauds)

153
00:07:34,821 --> 00:07:37,957
Oh, this is Walter,
my best friend.

154
00:07:37,990 --> 00:07:40,293
It's a living plastic parakeet.

155
00:07:40,326 --> 00:07:41,227
(audience laughs)

156
00:07:41,260 --> 00:07:42,962
(laughs) Hello, Walter.

157
00:07:42,995 --> 00:07:45,531
Coo-do, coo-do, coo-do, coo-do!

158
00:07:45,565 --> 00:07:46,999
Could you catch Walter for me?

159
00:07:47,033 --> 00:07:48,835
At three, okay, one,
two, three, catch.

160
00:07:48,868 --> 00:07:50,102
Too late, it's gone.

161
00:07:50,136 --> 00:07:51,304
(audience gasps)

162
00:07:51,337 --> 00:07:52,905
Oh, where's the cage?
Where's the cage?

163
00:07:52,939 --> 00:07:54,340
(audience laughs and applauds)

164
00:07:54,373 --> 00:07:56,275
I'm going to show you.

165
00:07:57,610 --> 00:07:59,445
Oh, it's the paper
bag and the bottle.

166
00:07:59,479 --> 00:08:01,280
So let me show
you I can do that.

167
00:08:01,314 --> 00:08:04,750
I will grab my bottle
and I will put the bag,

168
00:08:04,784 --> 00:08:05,918
and I got my magic wand.

169
00:08:05,952 --> 00:08:07,887
And I say... (glass clinks)

170
00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:09,455
You hear the bottle, yes?

171
00:08:09,489 --> 00:08:12,258
And a one, la, la, la,
la, la, la, la, la, la!

172
00:08:12,291 --> 00:08:14,660
(audience laughs)

173
00:08:14,694 --> 00:08:15,595
And two!

174
00:08:16,896 --> 00:08:18,664
La, la, la, la, la, la!

175
00:08:18,698 --> 00:08:19,866
(audience laughs)

176
00:08:19,899 --> 00:08:21,868
And a three, la,
la, la, la, la, la!

177
00:08:21,901 --> 00:08:23,703
And I pretend the
bottle is gone.

178
00:08:25,805 --> 00:08:27,006
It's gone.

179
00:08:27,039 --> 00:08:28,374
You see it? It's gone.

180
00:08:28,407 --> 00:08:31,310
(audience laughs)

181
00:08:31,344 --> 00:08:33,412
And when I do
that, it come back.

182
00:08:33,446 --> 00:08:34,647
(audience laughs)

183
00:08:34,680 --> 00:08:35,581
That's the trick.

184
00:08:36,682 --> 00:08:38,351
Okay, I know what
you're thinking.

185
00:08:38,384 --> 00:08:39,652
You think I'm a conman.

186
00:08:41,020 --> 00:08:42,522
Correct.

187
00:08:42,555 --> 00:08:44,223
But what did you
think about that?

188
00:08:44,257 --> 00:08:45,491
(bottle clinks)

189
00:08:45,525 --> 00:08:46,993
And a one! Blah, la,
la, la, la, la, la!

190
00:08:47,026 --> 00:08:49,328
(audience laughs)

191
00:08:49,362 --> 00:08:51,764
Because now it is completely

192
00:08:53,299 --> 00:08:55,134
(audience gasps)

193
00:08:55,167 --> 00:08:56,936
glass of beer.

194
00:08:56,969 --> 00:09:01,974
And of course, this is a
transformation of the bottle.

195
00:09:02,775 --> 00:09:03,943
(audience cheers and applauds)

196
00:09:03,976 --> 00:09:07,146
And this is my first
trick when I was child.

197
00:09:09,081 --> 00:09:10,049
Cheers, everyone.

198
00:09:10,082 --> 00:09:13,352
(audience cheers and applauds)

199
00:09:13,386 --> 00:09:14,520
(fire roars)

200
00:09:14,554 --> 00:09:16,188
- When we return,
amazing is the only way

201
00:09:16,222 --> 00:09:18,591
to describe Joshua Jay, next.

202
00:09:24,997 --> 00:09:27,400
(upbeat music)
(audience cheers and applauds)

203
00:09:27,433 --> 00:09:29,535
(fire roars)

204
00:09:29,569 --> 00:09:31,737
When it comes to the
art of slight of hand

205
00:09:31,771 --> 00:09:33,706
and fantastic storytelling,

206
00:09:33,739 --> 00:09:36,108
few can match the skill
of this performer.

207
00:09:36,142 --> 00:09:40,279
He's a magician's magician,
and he's here to show you why.

208
00:09:40,313 --> 00:09:42,348
Without further ado, please
give a round of applause

209
00:09:42,381 --> 00:09:44,050
for Joshua Jay.

210
00:09:44,083 --> 00:09:47,820
(upbeat music)
(audience cheers and applauds)

211
00:09:47,853 --> 00:09:49,121
- It's story time.

212
00:09:49,155 --> 00:09:50,122
Your name is?

213
00:09:50,156 --> 00:09:51,591
- Allura

214
00:09:51,624 --> 00:09:52,792
- Allura, and you were told
to bring a dollar bill.

215
00:09:52,825 --> 00:09:53,793
Can I see it now?

216
00:09:53,826 --> 00:09:55,261
Thank you.

217
00:09:55,294 --> 00:09:56,929
Don't worry, you will get
this dollar bill back.

218
00:09:56,963 --> 00:09:58,431
It's not that kind of trick.

219
00:09:58,464 --> 00:10:00,833
We just need a couple of
things to make this work.

220
00:10:00,866 --> 00:10:03,235
The first one is
you get the pen,

221
00:10:03,269 --> 00:10:05,037
and the next one
is I need somebody

222
00:10:05,071 --> 00:10:07,907
to tell me the exact time
that it is right now.

223
00:10:08,741 --> 00:10:09,809
- [Audience Member] 8:15.

224
00:10:09,842 --> 00:10:11,811
- 8:15, so do me a favor,

225
00:10:11,844 --> 00:10:13,446
I want you to put
your initials here.

226
00:10:13,479 --> 00:10:17,216
Just write it in that little
white spot there on your bill.

227
00:10:17,249 --> 00:10:20,486
And then here, there's some
white spot there, put 8:15.

228
00:10:23,389 --> 00:10:24,557
Excellent.

229
00:10:24,590 --> 00:10:28,227
So, before we get to this story,

230
00:10:28,260 --> 00:10:29,695
you can see her name

231
00:10:29,729 --> 00:10:34,767
and you can see the time
that this story takes place.

232
00:10:35,968 --> 00:10:37,203
Now, you're gonna
hold onto your bill,

233
00:10:37,236 --> 00:10:38,804
but I'm gonna fold it
in a very particular way

234
00:10:38,838 --> 00:10:39,905
before you do.

235
00:10:42,541 --> 00:10:47,480
Allura, hold out your
left hand, palm down.

236
00:10:47,513 --> 00:10:48,748
Yes.

237
00:10:48,781 --> 00:10:50,783
I'm gonna have you
hold onto your bill

238
00:10:50,816 --> 00:10:53,486
and rest your fist
right here, good.

239
00:10:53,519 --> 00:10:56,789
Now, most stories
come from books,

240
00:10:56,822 --> 00:10:59,191
but this one comes from
a different kind of book.

241
00:10:59,225 --> 00:11:00,359
A book of matches.

242
00:11:00,393 --> 00:11:01,494
It's very simple.

243
00:11:01,527 --> 00:11:02,528
If you haven't heard
it, it works like this.

244
00:11:02,561 --> 00:11:03,562
There's a ship.

245
00:11:04,897 --> 00:11:06,699
I'm pointing to a matchbook but
the matchbook is now a ship.

246
00:11:06,732 --> 00:11:09,101
And as sails, it
stops along the way,

247
00:11:09,135 --> 00:11:12,571
and they change out one of
the floorboards for a new one.

248
00:11:13,673 --> 00:11:14,840
And when they sail
a little closer,

249
00:11:14,874 --> 00:11:18,110
they change out three
more floorboards.

250
00:11:18,144 --> 00:11:19,578
And then they sail
a little closer,

251
00:11:19,612 --> 00:11:21,447
but this time they
change out everything,

252
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:26,419
every mast, every sail,
every ore, every floorboard,

253
00:11:26,452 --> 00:11:29,055
every part of the
ship is changed out

254
00:11:29,088 --> 00:11:32,558
so that by the time the ship
arrives, we ask this question,

255
00:11:32,591 --> 00:11:34,326
and this is the question
I'm gonna ask of you.

256
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:35,261
And there's no right answer.

257
00:11:35,294 --> 00:11:36,462
The way you answer this question

258
00:11:36,495 --> 00:11:38,864
just says a little
bit about who you are.

259
00:11:38,898 --> 00:11:41,267
Is the ship that
lands the same ship,

260
00:11:41,300 --> 00:11:43,102
or is it a totally
different ship?

261
00:11:44,303 --> 00:11:45,805
What do you think?

262
00:11:45,838 --> 00:11:48,140
- I think it's probably
a different ship by then.

263
00:11:48,174 --> 00:11:49,875
- Me too. I happen to think
it's a different ship.

264
00:11:49,909 --> 00:11:51,711
And the reason I kind
of think that way

265
00:11:51,744 --> 00:11:53,512
is because every
element of it is new,

266
00:11:53,546 --> 00:11:55,548
even though it's the same
ship that left, right?

267
00:11:55,581 --> 00:11:57,049
- Right.

268
00:11:57,083 --> 00:11:58,017
- And we could say the same
thing about a matchbook.

269
00:11:58,050 --> 00:11:59,285
This is still a matchbook.

270
00:11:59,318 --> 00:12:01,353
But if I do this,
is this a matchbook?

271
00:12:02,354 --> 00:12:03,556
Maybe, maybe not.

272
00:12:03,589 --> 00:12:05,324
I think it is because
it still has that staple

273
00:12:05,357 --> 00:12:07,960
and it still has the
strike pad, right.

274
00:12:07,993 --> 00:12:09,762
But if you were
to take those off,

275
00:12:12,298 --> 00:12:13,899
well, now I think we can agree

276
00:12:13,933 --> 00:12:16,335
this is not a matchbook anymore.

277
00:12:16,368 --> 00:12:17,837
- Right.
- Yeah?

278
00:12:17,870 --> 00:12:20,706
And the reason that I ask you
all of this is quite simple.

279
00:12:20,740 --> 00:12:22,942
I'm going to give you back
your dollar bill in a second,

280
00:12:22,975 --> 00:12:25,478
but I want to give you
back the same bill,

281
00:12:25,511 --> 00:12:28,247
and at the same time,
a different bill.

282
00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:29,215
And we do it like this.

283
00:12:29,248 --> 00:12:31,550
Would you just choose one match,

284
00:12:31,584 --> 00:12:36,655
any match with the other hand,
and drop it inside the fist.

285
00:12:37,957 --> 00:12:39,058
And in fact, take another
one, drop it inside.

286
00:12:40,459 --> 00:12:42,428
All the matches go inside.

287
00:12:42,461 --> 00:12:45,631
Even the strike pad goes inside.

288
00:12:45,664 --> 00:12:49,268
And now lift your hand up,
place it on top of mine,

289
00:12:49,301 --> 00:12:50,770
and turn over like this.

290
00:12:50,803 --> 00:12:54,406
On the count of three,
you're gonna open your fist.

291
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:56,709
One, two, three.

292
00:13:00,746 --> 00:13:01,447
(audience gasps)

293
00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:03,115
Now look at this.

294
00:13:03,149 --> 00:13:06,986
Allura, this is the
dollar bill you gave me

295
00:13:07,019 --> 00:13:08,954
with your signature on it.

296
00:13:08,988 --> 00:13:11,423
But now there's a
strike pad on it,

297
00:13:11,457 --> 00:13:14,860
there's a staple going
all the way through.

298
00:13:14,894 --> 00:13:17,263
And the next time you
go to light a candle,

299
00:13:17,296 --> 00:13:22,368
you will have a story to tell,
a story that started at 8:15.

300
00:13:22,902 --> 00:13:23,803
(audience gasps)

301
00:13:23,836 --> 00:13:26,438
(audience cheers and applauds)

302
00:13:26,472 --> 00:13:28,707
That's for you, thank you.

303
00:13:34,680 --> 00:13:35,481
(fire roars)

304
00:13:35,514 --> 00:13:36,849
- The impossible is easy

305
00:13:36,882 --> 00:13:40,386
for the masterful
manipulations of Noah Sonie.

306
00:13:45,124 --> 00:13:47,660
(upbeat music)
(audience cheers and applauds)

307
00:13:47,693 --> 00:13:49,495
(fire roars)

308
00:13:49,528 --> 00:13:51,230
It takes a special
kind of talent

309
00:13:51,263 --> 00:13:52,965
to make magic look effortless,

310
00:13:52,998 --> 00:13:55,568
and our next performer
has that talent in spades,

311
00:13:55,601 --> 00:13:58,938
along with a bag of tricks
that will blow your mind.

312
00:13:58,971 --> 00:14:00,172
Ladies and gentlemen,

313
00:14:00,206 --> 00:14:02,141
please welcome to the
stage, Noah Sonie.

314
00:14:02,174 --> 00:14:07,246
(upbeat music)
(audience cheers and applauds)

315
00:14:08,380 --> 00:14:10,916
- Tonight, I wanna
show you all a miracle.

316
00:14:10,950 --> 00:14:13,986
A miracle using a deck
of cards, a wine glass,

317
00:14:14,019 --> 00:14:16,088
and one person in this room.

318
00:14:16,121 --> 00:14:17,056
What's your name?

319
00:14:17,089 --> 00:14:18,290
- Maurice.

320
00:14:18,324 --> 00:14:19,491
- Maurice, will you
help me with this?

321
00:14:19,525 --> 00:14:20,793
Maurice, in a deck of cards,

322
00:14:20,826 --> 00:14:22,428
I'm sure you know that
there's a hearts, clubs,

323
00:14:22,461 --> 00:14:23,696
diamonds and spades.

324
00:14:23,729 --> 00:14:25,364
In a second, I'm
gonna snap my fingers.

325
00:14:25,397 --> 00:14:28,767
When I do, name any suit
that you want. Ready?

326
00:14:28,801 --> 00:14:29,602
Now.

327
00:14:29,635 --> 00:14:30,569
- Clubs.

328
00:14:30,603 --> 00:14:32,238
- Are you sure?

329
00:14:32,271 --> 00:14:34,173
I like the confidence.

330
00:14:34,206 --> 00:14:35,674
So, you also know
in a deck of cards

331
00:14:35,708 --> 00:14:39,011
there's the ace, two, three,
four, five, six, seven, eight,

332
00:14:39,044 --> 00:14:41,513
nine, ten, jack,
queen, and the king.

333
00:14:41,547 --> 00:14:43,315
Just like before,
I'll snap my fingers,

334
00:14:43,349 --> 00:14:45,251
you get to choose
whichever club you want.

335
00:14:45,284 --> 00:14:47,453
Get creative, think
outside of the box.

336
00:14:48,354 --> 00:14:49,154
- Five.

337
00:14:49,188 --> 00:14:50,556
- Five of clubs.

338
00:14:50,589 --> 00:14:52,925
One last question, are
you sure about that,

339
00:14:52,958 --> 00:14:54,793
or do you wanna change?

340
00:14:54,827 --> 00:14:55,661
- Keep it.

341
00:14:55,694 --> 00:14:56,962
- You're gonna keep it.

342
00:14:56,996 --> 00:14:58,464
This is what I think
is so incredible.

343
00:14:58,497 --> 00:15:01,600
This deck of cards has been
sitting here the entire time.

344
00:15:01,634 --> 00:15:03,235
The thing is, I had a feeling.

345
00:15:03,269 --> 00:15:04,403
I had a feeling about somebody

346
00:15:04,436 --> 00:15:05,437
that was gonna choose
a card tonight,

347
00:15:05,471 --> 00:15:07,439
and I think that person was you.

348
00:15:07,473 --> 00:15:09,608
That's why before we started,
before we did anything,

349
00:15:09,642 --> 00:15:11,010
I took one card in the deck

350
00:15:11,043 --> 00:15:13,045
and I turned it the
opposite direction for you.

351
00:15:13,078 --> 00:15:14,947
You said the five clubs,

352
00:15:14,980 --> 00:15:20,052
and the card that I turned
over was the ace of spades.

353
00:15:20,719 --> 00:15:23,322
(audience laughs)

354
00:15:23,355 --> 00:15:25,524
Not cool, man, not cool.

355
00:15:26,892 --> 00:15:28,127
No, here's the thing, I
didn't stop there though.

356
00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:29,762
I had a feeling, I had
a feeling about somebody

357
00:15:29,795 --> 00:15:31,063
that was gonna name
a card tonight,

358
00:15:31,096 --> 00:15:32,564
and I'm pretty sure
that person was you.

359
00:15:32,598 --> 00:15:36,502
That's why I also turned
over the ace of diamonds.

360
00:15:36,535 --> 00:15:37,503
(audience laughs)

361
00:15:37,536 --> 00:15:38,804
You look less impressed.

362
00:15:39,972 --> 00:15:41,440
I didn't stop there though.

363
00:15:41,473 --> 00:15:44,243
For you, I also made sure
to get the ace of clubs

364
00:15:44,276 --> 00:15:48,547
and I got the ace of
hearts, all four aces.

365
00:15:48,580 --> 00:15:50,582
And now you just look confused.

366
00:15:50,616 --> 00:15:51,850
(audience laughs)

367
00:15:51,884 --> 00:15:53,686
Here's the thing,
here's the thing.

368
00:15:53,719 --> 00:15:55,154
If I were sitting
where you were sitting

369
00:15:55,187 --> 00:15:56,422
I wouldn't really care

370
00:15:56,455 --> 00:15:58,290
about what was on the
front of these cards,

371
00:15:58,324 --> 00:15:59,692
I'd be way more impressed

372
00:15:59,725 --> 00:16:02,261
with what I wrote
for you on the back.

373
00:16:03,829 --> 00:16:05,064
The five of clubs.

374
00:16:05,097 --> 00:16:06,532
(audience gasps)

375
00:16:06,565 --> 00:16:08,267
Yes, yes!
(audience cheers and applauds)

376
00:16:08,300 --> 00:16:13,005
That's what I thought.

377
00:16:15,441 --> 00:16:17,076
It's good, it's good.

378
00:16:17,109 --> 00:16:19,812
It was good, it was good.

379
00:16:19,845 --> 00:16:21,246
It was good.

380
00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:23,615
I feel like I'm reassuring
myself a little bit on that one,

381
00:16:23,649 --> 00:16:25,451
'cause here's the
thing, thank you.

382
00:16:25,484 --> 00:16:26,285
- [Audience Member] Hey!

383
00:16:26,318 --> 00:16:27,720
- Here's the thing.

384
00:16:27,753 --> 00:16:30,189
I think it was good, but I
know some people might be like,

385
00:16:30,222 --> 00:16:32,391
well, I don't know if
that was a miracle, right?

386
00:16:32,424 --> 00:16:34,793
I don't know if
it was a miracle.

387
00:16:34,827 --> 00:16:37,696
So tell you what,
let's try this.

388
00:16:37,730 --> 00:16:40,566
Does anyone have like a bottle
of water that we can use?

389
00:16:40,599 --> 00:16:43,035
Hey, thank you, perfect.

390
00:16:43,068 --> 00:16:45,237
You all right if I
take this? Great.

391
00:16:45,270 --> 00:16:47,339
If we really wanted
to do a miracle,

392
00:16:47,373 --> 00:16:49,441
I feel like it would look
a little more like this.

393
00:16:49,475 --> 00:16:51,777
Water, wine glass.

394
00:16:53,045 --> 00:16:56,281
(audience gasps)

395
00:16:56,315 --> 00:16:57,116
Oh!

396
00:16:57,149 --> 00:16:58,884
(audience applauds)

397
00:16:58,917 --> 00:16:59,885
Do you drink wine?

398
00:17:00,853 --> 00:17:01,754
Take that.

399
00:17:01,787 --> 00:17:03,222
Give it a sip. Can you smell it?

400
00:17:03,255 --> 00:17:05,858
Smell it, does it
smell like wine?

401
00:17:05,891 --> 00:17:07,860
Give it a sip, go ahead.

402
00:17:09,061 --> 00:17:09,962
Taste it.

403
00:17:12,031 --> 00:17:13,232
Is that wine?

404
00:17:14,233 --> 00:17:15,300
- It's wine.

405
00:17:16,969 --> 00:17:17,870
- Thank you.

406
00:17:17,903 --> 00:17:21,807
(audience cheers and applauds)

407
00:17:28,047 --> 00:17:31,083
- We have a true
daredevil in our midst.

408
00:17:31,116 --> 00:17:33,585
Someone bound to take
your breath away.

409
00:17:33,619 --> 00:17:35,854
Ladies and gentlemen, Reza.

410
00:17:35,888 --> 00:17:39,324
(audience cheers and applauds)

411
00:17:39,358 --> 00:17:41,026
- Thank you very much.

412
00:17:41,060 --> 00:17:43,562
I'm looking for the
bravest dude here.

413
00:17:43,595 --> 00:17:46,298
Who would like to
join me on stage?

414
00:17:46,331 --> 00:17:47,332
Let's get that guy right there.

415
00:17:47,366 --> 00:17:48,434
Give him a round of applause.

416
00:17:48,467 --> 00:17:50,803
(audience applauds)

417
00:17:50,836 --> 00:17:52,071
What's your name?

418
00:17:52,104 --> 00:17:53,005
- Nikita.

419
00:17:53,038 --> 00:17:54,506
- Nikita, amazing, Nikita.

420
00:17:54,540 --> 00:17:57,042
Follow me all the
way around here.

421
00:17:58,143 --> 00:17:59,611
And I want you to
stick your head

422
00:17:59,645 --> 00:18:02,714
straight through this hole,
all the way through the hole.

423
00:18:02,748 --> 00:18:04,683
Who wants to see Nikita
do something dangerous?

424
00:18:04,716 --> 00:18:05,851
Who wants to see that?

425
00:18:05,884 --> 00:18:09,922
(audience cheers and applauds)

426
00:18:09,955 --> 00:18:12,024
You guys are sick,
but I like it.

427
00:18:12,057 --> 00:18:14,560
(audience laughs)

428
00:18:14,593 --> 00:18:17,896
Nikita, you are locked in place.

429
00:18:18,831 --> 00:18:20,466
Also, we have this.

430
00:18:20,499 --> 00:18:22,968
(audience gasps)

431
00:18:23,001 --> 00:18:26,338
This is a razor-sharp
circular saw blade,

432
00:18:26,371 --> 00:18:29,241
inches now from Nikita's head.

433
00:18:29,274 --> 00:18:32,544
I'm gonna try and get this
blade through his neck

434
00:18:32,578 --> 00:18:35,647
without severing his head off.

435
00:18:35,681 --> 00:18:39,351
If it works, it'll
be incredible.

436
00:18:40,285 --> 00:18:41,220
It'll be amazing.

437
00:18:42,554 --> 00:18:43,922
If it doesn't work,

438
00:18:43,956 --> 00:18:46,391
we don't want his head bouncing
out into the front row.

439
00:18:46,425 --> 00:18:49,428
That would not be cool,
so we have a bucket.

440
00:18:49,461 --> 00:18:51,730
This is strictly precautionary.

441
00:18:53,031 --> 00:18:54,266
Goes right there.

442
00:18:54,299 --> 00:18:55,767
(audience laughs)

443
00:18:55,801 --> 00:18:57,803
And if there's any blood,
this should soak it up.

444
00:18:57,836 --> 00:19:00,806
Nikita, do you have
any last words?

445
00:19:00,839 --> 00:19:02,774
- Is it too late
to use a bathroom?

446
00:19:02,808 --> 00:19:05,711
(audience laughs)

447
00:19:06,745 --> 00:19:07,646
- Okay, I have a
better place for this.

448
00:19:07,679 --> 00:19:08,647
We'll just put it back there.

449
00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:09,915
(audience groans)

450
00:19:09,948 --> 00:19:11,717
Kids, do not try this at home.

451
00:19:11,750 --> 00:19:14,319
Nikita, keep your
head just like this

452
00:19:14,353 --> 00:19:16,655
and legs spread for the
bucket, that's fine.

453
00:19:16,688 --> 00:19:18,123
(audience laughs)

454
00:19:18,157 --> 00:19:21,660
Metal through flesh,
whether it works or not.

455
00:19:22,661 --> 00:19:25,230
(tense music)

456
00:19:27,065 --> 00:19:29,468
(saw whirs)

457
00:19:36,041 --> 00:19:40,012
(audience cheers and applauds)

458
00:19:47,085 --> 00:19:49,054
You can pull your head out.

459
00:19:49,087 --> 00:19:51,590
All the applause for you.

460
00:19:54,126 --> 00:19:55,527
Come on forward.

461
00:20:02,868 --> 00:20:03,969
(fire roars)

462
00:20:04,002 --> 00:20:05,437
(upbeat music)

463
00:20:05,470 --> 00:20:07,239
- Thank you for joining us
tonight for a magical evening

464
00:20:07,272 --> 00:20:10,209
on "Masters of Illusion" that
we hope you won't soon forget.

465
00:20:10,242 --> 00:20:13,612
Remember, keep believing
in the impossible.

466
00:20:13,645 --> 00:20:15,647
Until next time, I'm Dean Cain.

467
00:20:15,681 --> 00:20:19,685
(audience cheers and applauds)
