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

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

Masters of Illusion.

Welcome to Masters

of Illusion. I'm Dean Cain. Now, our
brains process information from all of

senses.

something doesn't seem to add up, if it
doesn't seem to make sense, the brain

will reject what our senses are telling
it.

Now, we're going to challenge our brains
to make sense of things that I promise

you will not add up.

Are you up to the challenge?

All right.

Can you imagine playing chess or
checkers on this board?

Well, if you could, would you be playing
on top of the board or under the board?

I can see a castle on both.

Hmm. Well, our Masters of Illusion will
cause you to doubt yourself tonight. I

promise you.

Quick is the best way to describe the
action of our magic ambassador from

Korea. Here is Jackie Yu.

Let's go to our audience camera now and
take a look at some magic money with

Greg Gleason.

Greg, I'll take some of that magic
money, please.

You know, whenever I do a show, I always
ask the audience who they think was the

world's greatest magician. Who do you
guys think was the world's greatest

magician of all time?

Houdini, that's what everybody says.
Houdini. Now, he was actually an escape

artist, but he did some amazing magic.
And, in fact, he invented some of his

magic illusions.

One was called metamorphosis or the sub
-trunk. And I'd like to do that with

you. And I brought along a trunk.

Unfortunately, I don't think we're going
to fit in this trunk. So I did bring

something along that would fit in the
trunk. I brought along two $1 bills. I

went ahead and signed my name across one
of them. And this is Morgan from the

studio audience. Morgan, if you would do
the same thing.

Just take this Sharpie and just write
your name really big across the back of

that.

One dollar bill. Perfect.

And what Houdini would do is he would
take his lovely assistant, in this case

it's Morgan, and he would take Morgan
and he would tie her up in a bag.

And then he would open up his trunk and
he would put her in the trunk and then

lock her down inside of the trunk. Would
you go ahead and hold on to that one?

Now, Houdini would then take himself,
and he would stand on top of the trunk,

and in just a matter of seconds, again,
watch me,

because the $1 bill will never, ever
leave your sight.

However,

the signatures will change from my name
to Morgan's name.

That means, Morgan, you open the trunk,
open up that bill,

and there it is.

And that's consuming genetomorphism.

How about a big hand for Morgan? Thank
you very much, Morgan. Thank you.

You might be able to shuffle cards a
hundred different ways, but to witness

talents of our next performer is
spellbinding.

Do not take your eyes off the hands of
Joshua Jones.

All right.

A blue deck of cards and a red deck of
cards and something that's almost

impossible. What's your name?

Matthew. Matthew. Matthew, you're going
to take this blue deck of cards and

shuffle them up. When you're done
shuffling, give them some cuts, and I

the same with this red deck of cards.

Now, while you're shuffling, I want you
to take note of the fact the amount of

shuffles possible in a deck of cards is
an 8 with 67 zeros after it.

It's almost hard to comprehend, and
we're going to test that out now. So

the cards in your hand and spread
through until you get a feeling on a

don't want you to look at the card. I
just want you to take it and place it

down.

And you don't know what that card is, of
course. And you don't know what that

card is. Good. We're going to look at
these cards, but not yet. Instead, I

you to take that card and place it
inside your breast pocket there, and

the same.

Yeah, and keep shuffling, please.

You've watched me shuffle. You've
watched him shuffle. Now I want all of

watch me cut.

The card, get one final cut.

All of you watched me do it, and I'm not
going to change the order again at all.

Now it's your turn.

Place the cards on the table and give
them one final cut.

And complete.

Perfect. Now we'll check mine first.

For the people in the crowd out there,
would you please verify those cards are

not separated by color or suit? They
really are shopping.

And would you square them up and put
them face down right there? And then

check yours.

Let's see how you did.

Yeah, good work.

Now, the odds of us shuffling these
cards and then cutting to the exact same

card, you know what the odds of that
are?

Oh, big.

Just one in 52, actually, but I
appreciate your enthusiasm.

Check this out. I don't want to touch
those cards. Turn it over.

No. No.

No.

Well, if you think that's weird, if you
think that's improbable, pick up the

cards. I don't even want to touch them.

Deal that five of diamonds right here.
Yeah.

Perfect. And whatever the next card is,
take that card and deal it down.

Deal with me as fast as you can. Look,
four of hearts.

Every single card in this deck matches
perfectly. Look at this.

every single card, the queen, the seven,
the three, the eight, the eight, the

five, the two, the nine, the six, the
three, all the way down here to the

the two, the three, the six, every card
in this deck.

But, but, you were drawn to a card
before we did anything. While you were

shuffling, I was drawn to a card. Take
that card out now.

My friends, this isn't just improbable.
This is impossible.

Bill Cook will make you doubt your
senses when we come back.

One thing we all know is when you pour
liquid into a container, the liquid, it

can't move by itself.

But somehow, our magician from Chicago
does not believe that.

Of course. Here is Bill Cook.

I am fun at parties.

Looks like you agree.

But for those of you that are skeptical,
I will prove it to you.

We'll start with blue, yellow,

and the red.

And the blue.

Now, here's what I know from mixing
colors with my needles. If you mix red

yellow and blue together, you get brown.

Wow.

is red.

That means yellow.

I like looking out into the audience and
seeing adults trying to explain to

themselves how this works, that there's
something.

No. That's why for blue, I pour it out
this way and show that there's

nothing in the bucket at all.

away from Tokyo, Japan, our next master
has a new way to use a punchline.

Let's go to our audience camera and take
a lesson from Shoot Ogawa.

I use a few things here, but first of
all, I have a few business cards.

These days, business cards are not
really important anymore because we can

the internet, but I really like this as
a souvenir for the people. So I use this

card here.

And also I use... card. These are like,
you know, some of cards here.

Could you take one card from here and
put it on the table for me?

Very good. Okay, you can turn over.

Okay, just like that way.

Okay, I have two of the clubs. I use
this card here, and also I use this

Could you hold this for me? Alright,
this is what I'm going to do. Again,

really hard to watch if you can't see
it, so sorry for that. Open your hand.

I make a hole on the playing card, like
this.

Sorry, I hope you can't see well.

So, just keep my heart here, okay, on
your palm, and you can see the hole. Can

you see that? Yes.

It's really tiny.

So and I use the business card here and
I put card here so you can see the hole

here. Can you see that?

Okay. And if you want you can touch
here.

You can feel right? Yes. This is hole.
Real hole. Yes. Okay. You can see that.

All right. So now I have a playing card
here and also business card. Which card

has a hole on? Playing card or business
card?

Playing card. Playing card. Yes. So when
I count three, this hole is going to

jump from playing card to the business
card. Are you ready? I will count three.

One. Two.

It's very clean, okay?

I knew I'd be good, right?

Now I put this heart in a card like this
way, so it fits exactly.

And now this card is a little bit more
special, so you can take my card and my

heart together.

Thank you very much.

Next,

an impossible prediction by Chipper
Lowell.

is your knowledge of geography?

Well, you're about to take a trip with
kind of a wacky tour guide.

Let's see if you can pass his test.

Here is Chipper Lower.

I need the help of somebody.

Let's see.

What is your name? Lauren. Lauren, come
on up. Give Lauren a nice hand. Let's

hear it for Lauren.

Right over here, Lauren.

Very nice to meet you.

I'm going to give you a dry erase board
and a magic marker.

And you may look over here. We have the
United States.

All right? The United States. Now,
there's something very cool about this.

going to have you think of one of the
states. I want you to concentrate on a

place that maybe you've never been but
you'd like to go.

Maybe someplace you've always been.
Maybe a place your parents have gone to

maybe they grew up there and moved.

You got it? Okay.

Hide it from me. Hide it from the
audience and write in big letters

that state is, if you would please.

Are you all set?

I'm going to take the marker. I want you
to hold that against your chest. There

you go. And I want you to come forward.
Stand right about there.

Look right at me. Do not mouth a word,
but concentrate on the name of that

state, okay? Because I have amazing
hearing, and I can hear your thoughts.

Oh, yeah.

Here we go. Are you ready?

Keep concentrating.

Keep concentrating.

It's... It's... Oh!

Okay, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. No, it's
just that one fog.

It's fog.

There we go.

Oh. Oh.

There. Okay. We'll save that for later.

Okay. All right.

We're going to do it again. All right.
Look right at me. I think we're good.

Here we go. Look right at me.

You know what? It's still not working.

I'm going to have to clean it out again.
Sorry.

Okay. I just feel. I feel like there's
this.

Oh, wait. Wait.

Oh,

that is bizarre.

That is bizarre because I've been
missing this particular postcard, I

Do me a favor. What state were you
thinking of?

Ohio. Ohio?

Did she show that to everybody?

Ohio.

No way.

Ladies and gentlemen, greetings from
Ohio.

Yeah!

You did fantastic.

Thank you so much. Take a bow.

Time to go down into the audience for a
very unusual maneuver from the always

unique perspective of Jibrizy.

What's up, guys? This is Jibrizy, the
hip -hop illusionist. Get up.

Let's try something really, really cool.

Now, Kara, I want you to hold your
finger out. Hold it up just like this,

want you to tap it down on one card.
Just one.

That one.

Great. All right, Kara, remember your
card.

Got it?

We'll show it to the camera.

Take the deck.

Kara, here we go. I'm going to tell you
your card.

File a club.

Got a backup plan.

It's all good.

Check this out. Look at my shoes.

I want to tie it, actually. I was just
trying to show off my shoes and how cool

they were.

Let me try this. Look.

I'm going to give them a shake.

Tyler and Phil.

Right?

And if you also notice something about
the shoes, if I take them off,

it's kind of weird.

But can you notice anything?

It's in the shape of an A. And what's
that shape?

Heart. Is that your heart?

Yes.

I'm the reason a hip -hop illusionist,
and I just gave that swag it's never

It's that.
