The art of tricking the brain,
distorting the senses, challenging

You can't trust what you see, even with
your own eyes.

Meet the Masters of Illusion.

Hello everyone, I'm Dean Cain and
welcome to Masters of Illusion.

Now have you ever seen a shooting star
or watched a cloud disappear before your

eyes? Or seen a caterpillar turn into a
butterfly?

Well, these are things that might seem
magical, but they actually happen in

nature all the time.

And what you're about to see right now,
right here, definitely does not happen

in nature.

Are you ready to find out what I'm
talking about?

All right, here we go.

The eye sees only what the brain knows.

Is the man in the brown shirt carrying
the man in the yellow shirt?

Or... Is the man in the yellow shirt
riding on the shoulders of the man in

brown shirt? Are there actually two men
in this drawing? I don't know.

Okay, but tonight's Masters of Illusion,
they will do their best also to confuse

you.

From Paris, it's the absolutely
extraordinary talent of Xavier Mortimer.

Our next magician puts a new twist on
the old cutting a woman in half trick.

Here is Michael Grandinetti.

Welcome from Peru, George Iglesias.

All right.

Guys, do you like money?

You might want to see some money. I have
some money here. Well, to be honest

with you, there is not too much you can
do with a $10 bill right now. So it's

better to just blow and transform it
into a credit card. Way much better.

Laughs and the unbelievable talent of
Jackie Yu.

Next.

Korea to find our next performer.

Don't be distracted.

This is the inscrutable Jackie Yu.

I'll show you something special.

Do you know what this is?

An egg. Yeah, an egg. Big egg.

Inside this egg, there's an Easter egg.
And this is a very important thing for

my magic. Just remember that.

I'll use this later.

And I'm going to show you the magic.

Card magic with this bow.

Is there anything inside?

No.

Nothing? No.

Okay. And here's the deck of cards. See,
all different, right?

Okay, just please pick any card you
want. Any card is okay?

Thank you.

Okay. And sign your name on the face of
the card.

Yes.

Okay. Now, the seven of hearts. I put
the card in the middle of the deck like

this and try to find your card.

But when you watch card tricks, many of
you imagine that the magician can move

the chosen card to the top or to the
bottom.

Yeah.

Yeah.

That is possible.

But today, I'm going to try something
different.

If you look under the bowl, there's a
card in it, and it is signed card.

Oh, my gosh.

Okay, I'll do it again. I put the card
in the middle of the deck like this and

shuffle them like this.

And shuffle them again.

And shuffle them again.

And shuffle them again.

Do you know why I'm shuffling cards for
so long?

It's because one of the cards just moved
on the board and it is signed card.

Yes.

I know.

A lot of you get confused when I do this
to you. It's because all the cards back

look the same. All the cards back look
the same. So I attest a sticker at the

back of the signed card.

My favorite sticker is here.

Okay, I attach on the center.

See? And now, I'll tell you the secret.

Actually, my hand is so fast. I just did
like this.

You see that?

Yeah, card is here. Okay, I'll show you
once again. Look carefully. I put the

card in the middle like this and shuffle
them. Like this, but there it is under

the photo game. Yeah, it's an amazing
signed card.

Okay, I'll do it again. I'll do it
again. I put the card in the middle of

deck like this and shuffle them like
this. But there it is under the board

again. It's awesome. Okay, I'll do it
again. I put the card in the middle.

you see the sticker, right?

Okay, and shuffle them again like this
and shuffle, shuffle, shuffle, shuffle,

shuffle them again. But there it is
under the board again. It's amazing.

Sign the card, ladies and gentlemen.

Okay, I put it in the last time. I put
it in the last time. I put the card in

the middle.

And the deck is gone.

Yeah, there's only card left. And he
changed it to sign the card.

Oh, my God. The last card is under the
board.

Thank you.

Okay, you like it? Yeah.

You like it?

I put it back in one last time. I put it
back in one last time. This really is

the last, okay?

I put the card in the middle of the deck
like... Okay, I put the card in the

middle of the deck... Okay, I put the
card in the middle of the deck like

See?

Oh, what did I tell you guys I wasn't
going to use before?

Remember? Yeah.

It's your act.

It has been here since the beginning.

You all saw it, but in the egg, in the
egg, I see there is a 40, the card, and

it is signed the card, ladies and
gentlemen.

Thank you.

Amazing is the only way to describe the
surrealist.

Once in a while, I caution you with the
warning, do not try this at home. Well,

now is the time for that warning with
this most unusual experience.

They call themselves the Surrealists.

What's going on?

What's up,

guys? I'm Joel. My name is Spidey. And,
uh...

That's Joseph. Everybody give Joseph a
big hand, guys. Come on, buddy. It's

okay. Come on. It's okay.

Let me tell you what Joseph is
experiencing. This is called

fear of public speaking.

Believe it or not, the most common
phobia on the planet. More people are

of speaking in front of an audience than
any other thing in the world. Another

really common fear, the fear of the
unknown.

You're missing the black shirt here,
second row. Yes, hi.

What's your name?

Katie, everybody, Katie, big hand as she
joins us on stage. Come on. Come on,

Katie.

Watch your step, Katie. Thank you so
much, Katie.

Come right up here. So, Katie, here's
the deal.

I placed something in this brown paper
lunch bag, like a bouncy ball or a set

keys, something pretty common. I want
you to reach your hand in here and just

feel what's in there. And just by
touching it, try and figure out what you

is in there. Go ahead. Just reach in and
just tell me what it feels like. That's

all you got to do.

It's fine.

Trust me. Go ahead. Without looking,
what does it feel like, Katie?

A rope.

But it's like a cord, right? That's what
it feels like. See, but that's why so

many people have a fear of the unknown,
because all you can really do is take a

guess, but you never actually know.

Let me show you a stack of index cards
with the 30 most common

phobias in the world. Things like
snakes, heights, sharks, flying,

you say these are all 100 % different?

Good. I'm going to give these a mix so
that nobody can know the order. And as I

go through them, you're just going to
choose anyone. Just touch anyone.

Don't take it out. Just touch that one
right there.

Keep your eyes on it. Are you right
-handed?

Yeah. Open your right hand. We're going
to place it right there. Do you want to

change your mind or that's good?

That's good.

What if I told you guys, we predicted
she's going to pick that and put that

prediction right in front of your face?

That's right. You see, we actually told
you guys a lie earlier.

You see, Joseph here doesn't really have
a fear of public speaking at all.

There's a very different reason he
hasn't said anything this entire time.

Katie, for the first time in a loud,
clear voice, tell everyone of all the

different phobias which one you chose.
Go ahead. Take a look.

Spiders.

Spiders.

Spiders.

Katie, thank you so much. You've all
been back here, so thank you.

The impossible is easy to the masterful
manipulations of Hanak Nagash.

If you want to be a hit at the next
party you go to, try to follow the quick

hands of Hanak Nagash.

Folks, there's an old saying in magic
that the hand is quicker than the eye.

Tonight we put that to the test with my
very new friend right here, Hector,

correct? Hector, if you wouldn't hold
the glass for me.

Confirm that that is correct. That right
there is an empty glass for a box.

For the time being, I'm going to have
you select out one of these playing

And since your hands are a bit full
right there, I'm going to spread through

rather slowly. And I want you to just
touch a playing card as one goes by,

anyone you want.

This one, you're happy with this one?
Folks, take a look at Hector's playing

card. Lock it in. Everyone gets a look
at it, even those in the balcony

And Hector, you get a look as well. You
got it? Yep. Hector, for the time being,

your card begins at the bottom of the
pack, but in a moment will vanish from

bottom, travel into the pants pocket.

Hector, the best thing about this, I've
already told you what to look for.

Your card traveling to the pocket takes
about two seconds, and those two seconds

have happened.

Hector, I'm dying to know, what was your
card?

The five.

Kind of like this one right there, the
five of diamonds.

But, Hector, you know what? I'm looking
at the crowd and there's a few skeptics

here. Many of them are thinking that
maybe I have 35 of diamonds in the

And that is the way I used to do the
trick when I was a young man.

To do away with that theory tonight,
we'll make this card one of a kind with

Hector's name written across it in
permanent ink. You know what to look for

your five of diamonds child in the
pocket? I merely cast the shadow over

pack and immediately it vanishes into
the pocket.

Wait for the right theatrical moment.

There it was.

And just like that, it vanishes
completely, and we all know where it's

now. It's traveled deep down inside of
Hector's box. Hector, lift the box out

the glass. Lift the whole box. Hector,
shake the box a little bit. Listen to

sound.

Folks, only one playing card inside of
the box, no more, no less. Hector, have

look. It should be a five of diamonds
with your name written across it. Show

to the crowd if you would.

Impossible is what he does. And the
closer you watch, the more likely he is

amaze you.

He is true art in motion. Here is Eric
Jones.

I need a volunteer. Someone to come up
and help me to make sure what everyone

else sees looks completely fair. But it
won't be, but it'll look completely

fair, right?

What's your name, bro?

Brendan. Brendan, good to meet you. I'm
Eric.

Guys, give Brendan a round of applause.

I've got a gift for you, sir.

Do me a favor. Take your index finger
and I want you to touch the back of any

playing card in the pack.

That one. If you could, go ahead and
take a look at it.

And go ahead and sign your name right on
the face of the card.

It's like your first time signing an
autograph, right?

Okay, I'll take the pen back.

Now, here, do me a favor and go ahead
and show the card to the camera. Make

everyone at home gets to see it.

Awesome. Drop your card back anywhere
into the pack that you want.

Push it all the way in. And if you
could, join me on stage and give Brendan

round of applause. A bit of
encouragement as you make it.

Awesome. While you're shuffling those
cards, losing your card deeper into the

pack, I want you to take a look at this
glass. If you could, step up here.

You'll notice that this is an 8 by 10
solid piece of glass. Please examine it.

You can touch it anywhere.

Everything looks completely cool,
copacetic.

Come on down.

Here's what I'm going to have you do.
Turn your cards face up as they are, and

want you to make a huge mess. Spread
them out so that you can make sure that

can see all of the cards, yeah?

You might even see your card in there,
do you? Yeah, perfect. It's right there.

That's even better. Let's put it right
about there in the middle.

Awesome.

I'm going to give you this.

You've got a really cool job. I want you
to bring the cards up here, and I want

you to smash them flat against the glass
right about there.

That's perfect. Hold them with both
hands.

Excellent.

Watch closely.

You'll notice a solid passes straight
through solid. You

can go ahead and slowly allow those
cards to fall. Allow the glass to fall

well. And I've got one question for you,
sir.

Is this your part?

Yeah? You can go ahead and take that.
That's a gift.

But before you go, I said I had a big
finish for you.

If you could hand me that cloth that's
right there. Grab it by the hole.

Perfect. Be careful. And take a couple
of steps back.

Excellent. Excellent.

Now, this, again, is a solid piece of
glass. And there's only one way that I

get through.

Because you can't go around.

And you can't go under.

You really have to go through.

Keep bringing a round of applause.

Thank you so much.

That's NASA's Illusion for tonight. I
hope everyone enjoyed the world of the

impossible. Until next time, I'm Dean
Cain. Good night.

All right.

I have to get to your side.

All right.

No,

no.

Well done, you guys.

That's it.

Thank you.
