Magicians: Life in the Impossible Page #3

Synopsis: "MAGICIANS follows four world-class magicians on stage and off, exploring how and why these characters so passionately dedicate their lives to the craft of illusion. Their journey takes us from the most humbling of road gigs to grand performances on the biggest of stages, from finding love to terrible personal loss; and to the prospect of losing everything for a dream others don't understand. As we come to understand why each is obsessively chasing his own dream, we'll discover the unhidden secret: far more fascinating than the magic are the magicians themselves."

match the number.

Make sure it's the same.

I do not believe

what I'm seeing.

-Are you guys ready

for some magic?

-Of course.

Can I scoot in here,

so you can all have

a good vantage point?

Somebody have a bill,

like a 20, a 50, a 100?

Write your initials

on jackson's forehead,

So now I can't

switch the bill.

You guys may have

seen me do this one

on "the tonight show."

I did it on "the tonight show,"

both for johnny and for jay.

We're gonna fold this back

into itself, light it.

It's a bill inside,

slightly burned.

Got your initials.

is that cool?

Want me to take this home

and dispose of it?

Appreciate that.

Thank you.

Did you have a dog

when you were little?

- I did.

-Okay, think of it.

When I came over here,

I brought a little dog with me.

It's a little stuffed dog,

and the collar of the dog,

In little beads,

it spells out a name.

If it matches the name of

the dog you're thinking of

It'd be pretty

impressive, right?

Yeah.

What was

the name of the dog?

Snorky.

Oh my--!

It's a miracle!

you get to keep that.

Oh, my god,

thank you!

I'm gonna cry!

Oh, my gosh.

- snorky!

- -snorky.

-That's unbelievable.

-I have two gifts for you.

You get the free dog.

You also get the free watch.

You get the free watch.

-The free watch.

-Huh? Ah!

I love doing it,

but it's exhausting.

Every time I perform at a table,

I have to be totally aware

Of where

everybody's looking,

What they're doing

with their hands.

Everything takes

a lot of concentration.

Did you see what happened?

See, this floats up

instead of down.

Thank you, sir.

I think of what

I want now.

I think of where I want

to go with my career.

Over the years,

I've been copied a lot

by other magicians,

So my style and everything

is not as unique as it was

20 years ago.

I think there's ageism

in the business, you know.

I'm getting older.

They want younger guys

or whatever.

I would like to be comfortable

and not have to

Hustle as much as

I used to have to hustle,

But, um, from here

I don't really know where

I'm heading,

So it's a little

disconcerting.

so it must be great

to be at the riviera.

yeah, frank sinatra

and liberace,

And they all

were on this stage,

all the big stars.

Did you hear we just

got voted best magic show?

That was gonna be my next

question, actually.

the best of vegas.

There are some big names in vegas.

-Yeah, absolutely.

-So this is a good-- yeah.

And I think

the other magicians--

how you say?

They are okay with it.

can you hear me?

yes, I can hear you, frank.

Can you give us,

in general,

Just a little bit more light

backstage, something?

direct from germany,

Master illusionist
