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 goal
tonight is to confuse you. What you see

not really what you see.

Our brain says this cannot be true.

But your eyes, our eyes, we witness the
facts.

Now, are you ready to be confused?

Because I just totally confused myself,
so.

Okay, so what do you see here?

Do you see a pole surrounded by a whole
bunch of circles?

Well, that pole does not exist. It is
the total creation of your brain.

And the goal of our Masters of Illusion
is to make you see what is not there.

There is no spoon.

They will make you believe their
reality.

Combining illusion and mystery with a
touch of comedy is one of Canada's most

popular magicians. Here is Chris Bum.

Well, It's card trick time, but not for
our live audience. No, it's card trick

time for the people at home.

That's right. We're going to do a card
trick. So I want you to get up out of

your chair, get a little bit closer to
the TV and check this out. We've got

playing cards, five of them actually.
What I want you to do is memorize one of

these five playing cards. Keep it locked
in your brain.

Don't forget it.

I'm going to read your mind through the
screen. I'll tell you exactly which card

you picked.

I think it's that one.

Check it out.

Your card's gone, isn't it?

Yeah. I knew I'd get it. That's a big
mind blow.

From Tokyo, Japan, our next performer
will never leave you hungry.

You'll see what I mean in just a second.
Here is the very charming and very

intriguing Shoot Ogawa.

I would like to show you some magic, but
I need a lady to help me from the

audience.

Could you help me, lady?

Yes, yes, me, yes.

Please give a big round of applause.

Please be careful upstairs.

Nice to meet you. Thank you very much.
So now, I want you to check my sleep,

because sometimes people think I'm
hiding something here. Could you check

sleep?

Okay.

You're so happy.

That's good.

I chose the right person.

I'm not hiding anything, right? If you
want, you can check out of that.

Great.

You're happy. If you want, you can check
everything.

Okay. Like, you know, Los Angeles.

Like, New York.

All right. Okay.

That's different entertainment.

She said, I'm not hiding anything.

But of course, sometimes I hide
something, but she doesn't know. That's

whole point. It's too many for my
friend, okay?

All right. So now you can tell she
didn't check anything, but we're going

magic together, okay?

Okay, I chose the right person.

Okay. So now we're going to do some of
the card trick. But before we start, I

need just your help. Stay there. I just
drop card like this. So face up anywhere

you like.

Start.

Here. Okay, that's good.

All right. So I don't care, but thank
you for your help.

Patience. I keep this card in my pocket.
I'm going to use this card later.

But please forget about this. That's a
teamwork, okay?

Could you take a card, Maria?

Okay? Don't show it to me. And I want
you to sign maybe like a smiley face,

you just smile. Okay? Just big circle
and smile, okay?

You finished?

Okay, good. Okay, can I have a pen?

You need a pen?

Large one? Okay, show it to everyone.

Okay, good.

All right.

So now, I want you to put it back in the
middle of the card.

Put it back in the middle.

You're aggressive.

Okay.

So sometimes people check my sleeve, but
you didn't check right because, you

know, actually, believe it or not, it's
a thin, you know, plain card.

Wow. Okay. Is this your card?

No. Why are you so happy?

No.

Okay. Yeah, it's the wrong card. I know,
I know. It's no signature. But a

magician always has an extra card just
in case, you know, we prepared.

So this is a six of hearts.

No. It is six cards. Yes, okay, yeah,
just like that.

All right, so give me a second. I have
more cards here, just in case I have

cards here. So is this including your
card?

No? Okay, all right, sorry.

It's going to be long, though. Let me
see. I have another thing in my pocket.

Sorry, I forgot another one. Sorry.

Okay, there's too many here. All right,
so...

Sorry, yeah, I was hungry.

You know, sometimes people think I'm
hiding stuff everywhere, and that's

correct. Could you open your hand? Okay,
just I use your hand, and just grab the

card like this way, like that. Okay,
very good. Don't lose, don't lose. Okay,

just like that way. Hold it.

Okay, I have more stuff in my... I have
an extra card just in case. Yeah.

Okay, you don't like that. Okay, let's
try it again.

So people ask me, how many cards do I
have? And of course, I have two deck of

cards almost, like this.

Of course, one deck of cards.

Before you choose cards, actually, he
says, stop, I put one card in my pocket.

If that card is your chosen card, it's
great, right? My hand is empty. My

is empty. Watch carefully right here.

I have a deck of cards.

Yes, yes, mighty face. Yes.

Thank you very much. I love you. Thank
you so much.

Well,

you've heard the saying, put your money
where your mouth is.

Well, that's no challenge for the
lightning fast magician that you're

meet. Here is Chris Korn.

Cheers. Thank you.

When I first got into magic, I was age
14, and my best friend, Sid, got a magic

kit for Christmas.

And people always ask how I got started.
That was it. We sat up all night, read

tricks from the magic kit, and did a
little show for his mom in the morning.

this is one of the first tricks I
learned. Not all that amazing, but I'll

it to you.

That's it.

Not all that impressive.

No, here's the magic part.

I know.

Well, you heard the expression, put your
money where your mouth is. We'll do

that.

For you. Yeah.

Laugh at the unbelievable talent of
Chipper Bowen.

the dynamic energy of America's
professor of magic. He knows whether or

are a success with his very special
formula.

Here is Chipper Lowell.

Thank you, guys.

Big round of applause for our audience
volunteer, Jacqueline.

Jacqueline, take the cards. I'm not
going to play with them. I want you to

through them. You'll see that they're
all mixed up. They're all shuffled up.

that correct?

Yes. Yes? Excellent. I want you to take
half the cards and turn them the other

way, upside down, and I'm going to have
you shuffle them together, okay? So some

are upside down, some are right side up.
However you want to do it, you can mush

them together.

You can take your time.

There you go.

Is that good?

All right, you want to do it a couple,
just take it up a couple more times. I

really want to make sure that they're
completely shuffled up. And again, some

are up, some are down. Don't be worried
because they have to be mixed up. Are

you good, Jacqueline? Okay, now I'm
going to have you spread the cards in

hands. And I'm going to get out of the
way because you're going to take the

card, throw them right up in the air.
You're going to be raining cards. You

ready? Go for it.

And there we go. Okay.

Excellent. Okay. Now, some of them are
face down.

So I'd like you to go grab three of the
face down cards. One over there, one

over here, wherever you want to do. But
grab three of them and put them

together. There you go. Another one.

Excellent. One more.

You got it.

Very good.

Mix them up a little bit. Shuffle them
up, if you would please.

Are you good?

Excellent. Let me take one of those. One
of those. We're going to throw this one

away, whatever it is. Okay?

Five of diamonds.

Five of diamonds. We are throwing it
away.

Okay? Next one. Whichever one you want.
All right? That one. Okay. The four of

spades. Four of spades. Guess what?

It's out of here.

Yes. We have one card left. What is it?
Hold it up so everyone can see it. It is

the king of hearts.

King of hearts. King of hearts. King of
hearts. Where is it here on the board?

King of hearts. Oh, right here. King of
hearts. Now, you just as easily could

have had this card. You could have
easily taken this one. You could have

say, this one over here. You could have
chosen this one here. You could have had

this one. But you went with the king of
hearts.

Completely random.

But this is so cool. Do me a favor, if
you would. I want you to hold onto this

card. Put that one on the floor.

And I want you to hold it against
yourself. Don't look at it. Just stay

there. Here's the reasons why you didn't
pick these. You may not realize this,

but for instance, if you had picked the
two of hearts, you would have been a

loser, but you're not a loser.

No, no. If you had picked the eight of
clubs, you would have been a loser, but

you're not a loser. As a matter of fact,
if you had picked the queen of hearts,

loser. Or if you had picked the king,
king of fate, loser.

As a matter of fact, if you had picked
any of these, you would have been a

loser.

But you picked one card, one card out of
52, and I think you're a winner. Would

you very slowly turn that card around
with me, ladies and gentlemen?

Winner!

Thank you so much. Think about it.

Next,

an impossible prediction by the
Eversons.

Here are two people who have mastered
the ability to astound their audiences

with their mind manipulations.

Open your own mind as you meet the
Evisons.

Thank you.

Thank you.

How many of you have ever had the
experience where the phone rings and

you answer it, you know who's calling?

It's amazing when that happens.

I think that's caller ID.

You could be right.

I need somebody who has a smartphone.

Show me if you have a smartphone.

Perfect. Somebody totally at random. I'm
going to toss this ball out into the

audience behind my back.

If you catch the ball and you don't have
a phone, hand it to the person nearest

you who does. Get ready. Here we go. At
random.

All right. Pick it up. Did we get out
there? Perfect.

Okay. Do you have a phone?

Have we ever met you before?

Perfect. Could you come over here? Meet
me right in the front. Bring your phone

with you. We need to have the phone.

Give her a big round of applause,
everybody.

This is great.

Hi, hi. Just drop the ball.

That's perfect.

And this is your phone. What's your
first name?

Zoe. Zoe. Perfect. Could you open your
phone, please? Just do the password.

Let's unlock it. That's 3271.

Thank you so much. Really appreciate
that. Open up your contact. Do you have

lot of contacts in your phone?

No, not too many. Do you have any idea
how many contacts in your phone?

No. Have a go, Tess. How many contacts?
You're just getting started, Zoe, and

I've turned away so I can't see anything
on your phone. I think it's just 87.

So you have no idea. You've got to go
way to the end below this letter C. How

many contacts?

87. 87. She was right.

So let's choose somebody totally at
random.

Right? So just go through your phone.
Here's what we want to do. Nobody in

area code. Is this a friend or family?

That's a friend. Okay.

Go ahead and hold it here.

And by the way, what about this number?
This is a friend's number, Ted.

And I want you to ignore the area code,
Zoe. Don't say it out loud. Don't even

think of it. Right now I'm thinking of a
four, and I think that's the first

number after the area code.

Yes. Good. We're connecting.

Up to the four, I believe that's a
seven.

Yeah. Isn't that a nine?

Yeah. Zoe, in mind, I have a one.

Yeah.

Six. Yeah.

I think the last one's a four.

Yeah. She got the entire number. Okay,
that's right. See?

Now, repeat this. Describe it. Go ahead.
Is it a man? A woman?

I was thinking it was a woman. Is it a
woman?

Yes. It is.

Pretend you're dialing your friend's
number.

457 -9164. Pretend she answers the
phone. She picks it up. She says hello.

You say, hi, is this... Dominique? Is
it... Yeah, it is.

Thank you very much.

That goes beyond caller ID, right?

Thank you.

Magicians the world over seek to defy
gravity.

What's clearly impossible just might
prove to be an easy task for this next

performer. Here is Joseph Gabriel.

Magic has a wonderful history. It goes
all the way back to the pyramids. What

I'm going to show you today is a
wonderful illusion that was invented

years ago.

What I love about it is because it's so
simple. It uses a wooden plank, a chair,

a ring, and a person from the audience.

Let me see here. Hi, what is your name?

Ashley. Ashley. Give Ashley a nice round
of applause. Come on. Thank you, my

dear.

If you would, Ashley, just sit right in
this chair right over here.

Great. And you get to have a little
closer view of what's going to happen,

And Ashley, this is where the magic
happens.

Are you going to help me?

Stand right over here and look at the
ball.

I think it's coming.

I think it's following you, Ashley.

I'm only on the end here.

Now, Ashley, what I'd like you to do is
point at the ball, wiggle your finger,

and your job is to get that ball all the
way to the top of the plank. And if you

can do that...

I know they're going to give you a great
response, okay?

Ashley, go for it.

Up and down.

You got it going, Ashley.

You got it.

Give Ashley a nice round of applause,
everyone.

Thank you, my dear.

Let her hear you.

Thank you so much.

will make you doubt your senses when we
come back.

He is considered one of the world's
foremost illusionists.

Behold, the beguiling deception of Greg
Ruin.

Thank you very much.

How's everyone doing tonight?

I need to give a bit of help tonight, so
I'm going to come out here to the

crowd. I need a gentleman, and I can see
this guy right here. I need someone

with a jacket. What is your name, sir?
Jonathan.

Jonathan, let's give Jonathan a big
round of applause.

We're going to make his way up on the
stage.

Thank you for joining us, Jonathan,
tonight.

We are going to do an escape. Have you
ever done an escape in your life before?

Not that I care to talk about it. Not
that you want to talk about it, okay.

We've got a bag, and you're going to
help me be the eyes and the ears for the

audience. We're going to check
everything out tonight. Check the bottom

bag. Make sure there's no buttons, no
seams that are unopened or opened.

Make sure there's no Velcro.

It's good. It's solid. That is
important.

Jonathan, this is going to go down
inside of this black set of material,

someone has to get into the bag tonight.

You got it. No, it's not you, Jonathan,
but thank you.

Ladies and gentlemen, bring to the stage
my lovely assistant, Alex. Give her a

big round of applause.

Thank you, Alex.

Now, to make sure, Jonathan, that we're
not using a twin, do take your jacket

off, if you don't mind. And we're going
to take this jacket, and I want you to

place it onto Alex. That way, you'll
know down the road, there is only one

that looks like her.

With one jacket.

All right, Jonathan, now we're going to
bring this up to here.

I'm going to get it all the way up here.
Make sure it's good and solid. Make

sure there's no buttons.

No, once again, the seams are good and
solid. Make sure it's all good. Is it

good? Now we're going to get to the fun.
She's going to go down inside this bag.

Very good.

And we're going to actually take this
piece of leather.

We're going to go all the way around the
outside of the bag.

Nice and tight. Now, when your job comes
in, could you hold the top of this bag?

Right up here, right at the very top.
We're going to do one more thing to

Jonathan, that this is secure. I'm going
to tie this rope to your arm.

Then we're going to tie this to the bag
itself, Jonathan. That way, there's no

way she can escape. You would think
that's fair, Jonathan. Is that correct?

That's pretty fair. Fair.

Jonathan, you ready for this? I'm going
to take this cloth. We're going to come

up and one, two, three.

Alex has made it out. Ladies and
gentlemen, fair play.

Ladies and gentlemen, give Alice a big
round of applause. She did fantastic.

Jonathan, the bag is still in your hand.
It's tied with the leather around the

top. Check to make sure that's a solid
bag still. There's no seams, no Velcro,

no buttons. And you feel there's
something inside that bag. Jacket. You

so? I'll tell you what. I'll help you
undo this.

Take this off here.

Very good, Jonathan.

Excellent. Jonathan, the strap will come
off.

Take the top of that bag, reach down
inside, and Jonathan in the bag.

Jonathan's jacket, ladies and gentlemen.

Thank you very much, Jonathan.

Let's give him a big round of applause.
He did fantastic.

Well,

that's it for tonight's Masters of
Illusion.

I'm Dean Cain. Thank you so much for
watching.

All right.

Thank you guys

very much. Well done.
