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 when you see magic
performed by a master, you might wonder

whether the magician...

has the ability to alter reality, or
maybe just your perception of it.

Could either of these be possible?

Well, you want to find out?

We're going to find out.

This looks like a Japanese classic
painting of a cat, right?

But let's take a closer look.

It's actually many cats.

A cat lover's delight.

They're everywhere.

Watch the composition of tonight's
illusions because our masters have many,

surprises in store for you.

He has been called unique and
mesmerizing and has performed all over

Here is Ted Trent.

And now, let's go down into the audience
for the quick manipulations of

Chicago's Bill Cook.

Hi,

I'm Bill.

Sierra, nice to meet you. Everyone, this
is Sierra.

She's going to help me with this. Now,
Sierra, did you know that magicians have

conventions and gatherings where we get
together and meet with each other?

No. No.

Fascinating, right? Well, at a recent
convention, a magician told me about a

ritualistic card trick, a way a magician
can test another magician, and if the

test goes wrong...

Something gets lit on fire.

I'll show you what happened.

First, we need this.

And we'll come back to that in a minute.

And a deck of cards.

Deck of cards are all completely
different.

I can show you.

I can show the camera.

As I go through the cards, just reach
out and touch one.

That one. Are you sure? Look at it.
Don't say it. Audience.

Camera.

Audience. In the middle of the deck of
cards, it goes.

Now, here's the ritual part. You take a
piece of tissue paper and you wrap the

deck of cards in the tissue paper.

The goal is to get the card to jump to
the top.

I get three chances. If I'm wrong,
something gets lit on fire.

Oh, fun!

Watch.

First roll up the back.

King of clubs, is that your card? No.
No, that's not good. Okay, one down, two

to go.

Three of hearts.

We'll get there.

Eight of spades.

Oh, well, something gets lit on fire.

No, it's not going to be you. It's not
going to be me.

It's actually going to be this stick.

And this stick is going to light the
tissue paper.

I'll show you. What was your card?

It was four of diamonds. The four of
diamonds.

Watch this.

The paper begins to burn in the shape

of a four and a

diamond.

Now it is time for a charming young lady
with a particular ability of placing

mind over matter.

Here. is Ana de Guzman.

Hi, everyone.

Who's comfortable with me hypnotizing
them?

You, sir. I saw your hand come up.

Give a round of applause for him.

Hi. What's your name?

Wes. Nice to meet you.

You were pretty fast when raising your
hand. You're comfortable with me getting

in your head?

I'm comfortable with you trying to get
in my head. Okay. Oh, so you think

strong enough to fight it. We'll see
about that. Come step a little closer.

You have mental strength.

Yes. We're going to actually test out
your physical strength. So you think you

can lift me, right?

Probably. Go ahead. Try.

We get it.

Okay. In a moment, you will not be able
to lift me. Understand?

All your strength is gone. Just relax.
Listen to the sound of my voice. You

not be able to lift me, okay?

All your strength is gone. Go ahead. Try
to lift me.

Are you really trying? Really try.

Really try.

You're embarrassing yourself right now.

Really try. Are you sure? Okay, go
ahead.

I feel like they think you're in on it.

So, let's see. Who else thinks they can
lift me? Someone random. You might have

thought we set this up.

You, sir.

Come on, join me.

What's your name?

Fabian.

Fabian. Nice to meet you.

Give it up for Fabian.

Ready?

Your strength is gone, too. Go ahead.
Try to lift me.

You're really trying. You're really
trying.

Try again.

Again.

You suck.

You thought you could lift me? No, you
couldn't lift me? No, no. I couldn't. I

don't know why.

It's okay. Next time. All right. Thank
you. Thank you.

I can't leave you like this. Here's your
strength, Zach. Go ahead. I believe in

you. Go. Oh, okay. There you go.

Woo.

Oh, my gosh. Look at that right there.

Wow. So strong.

Thank you so much.

The always amazing sleight of hand of
Andy Gladwin.

Our next performer is ready to challenge
you, but not without the offer of some

special prizes.

Pay attention to the directions of Andy
Gladwin.

Thank you.

We're here with Lisa, who's going to
pick a card. So, Lisa, just touch any

you like and keep me as fair as you can.

So just touch any card. This one here.

I'm going to let everybody in the
audience see it, and you'll get to see

And Lisa, there's a pen there. I'd like
you to take the pen, and I'd like you to

write your name in big, bold letters
across the front of the stick of

But you can place the pen back down. In
a second, I'm going to have you shuffle

these cards, and then you can just place
them down on the table.

All right? While you do that, I want to
tell everybody else. You can shuffle

them. I want to tell everybody else
about this man.

This is a picture of a man named Chip.

Now Chip Robinson is one of the most
notorious card cheats of all time.

But what this photo doesn't show is that
Chip Robinson was completely blind.

He couldn't even see the cards that he
used to cheat with.

Other card cheats wanted to know how he
did it, and he would always say the same

thing. The secret is right in front of
your eyes when you least expect it.

you are going to blindfold me, and I'm
going to try and find your sign six of

diamonds. So you can place the cards on
the table.

Over there we have some duct tape. I'd
like you to take one of those pieces,

And you are going to tape up my eyes.
But because this is a trick inspired by

Chip Robinson, I'm going to take half of
the photo over each eye. So we'll start

with my left eye. Just tape it downward.

Downward? Downward. Perfect.

Yep, go for it.

It's fine.

Fantastic. Clearly you don't care about
my hair there, Lisa. Okay, that's fine.

The next one will go down this way.

And you know what Lisa, push as hard as
you like. Okay, apparently you did.

That's fine. I just move it from my
mouth and then the last one can go

eyes.

Fantastic. Perfect.

Okay. And yeah, just probe my eyes for
extra effects. Okay.

Lisa, you may return to your seat, but
one, before you do, please hand me the

deck of cards, making sure they are face
down to the back, outward.

Perfect. And you may return to your seat
to a thunderous round of applause.

Even though I cannot see a thing I will
now attempt to find Lisa find six of

diamonds, but you know what? We'll work
up to it instead of just finding the six

We'll start by finding the eighth then
the two the three the four the five and

then the six So I can't see but tell me
is this the eighth of diamonds Yes,

perfect. All right. Let's try to find
the truth this one. I will make it even

harder on myself I will put the card
behind my back.

I should get it

Is this the two of diamonds?

Yes, perfect.

All right, let's keep going. Let's try
to find the three of diamonds. We'll

it even harder again. This time I will
place the cards in my pocket,

my movement completely, but hopefully...
Is this the three of diamonds?

Yes, perfect.

Let's go for... In fact, the four we
will do differently. This one, I won't

the four of diamonds.

Instead... Let's try and find it in a
different way. Here we go. This is not

four of diamonds.

Am I correct? This is not the four of
diamonds.

But this will allow me to show you Chip
Robinson's famous switch. The chip

switch happens like this. Is this the
four of diamonds?

Yes, perfect.

Let's try and find the five of diamonds.
This one I will find with one cut. Is

this the five of diamonds?

Yes, perfect. Let's now try and find
Lisa's sign six.

Of diamonds. To do this, I will fire the
cards into the air. I will reach in and

pull out Lisa's signed card. Here we go.

Sorry. I just remembered something.

Chip Robinson's famous saying.

The secret is right in front of your
eyes when you least expect it.

But I want to show you my secret.

Lisa, is that your signed six of
diamonds? Your card, the six.

Of diamonds.

Thank you very much.

Up next,

The Impossible is Made Possible by Steve
Bundy.

The Rubik's Cube. I have spent hours
trying to master it, and the only result

has been frustration.

But not for our next magician.

You'll see what I mean.

Here is Steve Brundage.

Can you help me out? Your name?

Steven. Jenny, can you hold out your
left hand flat?

So, Jenny, your job is to guard the
Rubik's Cube.

Okay.

Very important. If I reach for it,
you're going to have to slap my hand.

hesitate. Slap as hard as you want.

Perfect. Now, you're guarding it pretty
well. Your job is now to select a card.

In a deck of cards, we have 52 different
cards that you get to choose from. I'm

going to shuffle the cards.

Your job is to name any card you want as
they go by. So we're going to go

through. Anytime you see a card that you
want to use, I want you to name it out

loud. Ten of spades.

The ten of spades. Very important
question. Have I touched that Rubik's

since I gave it to you?

Yes or no? No. And then out of all 52
cards, what card did you say?

Ten of spades. Watch the ten of spades.

Watch.

I'm going to get that tiny little corner
piece to completely disappear from my

hand.

travel in the air, land inside the
Rubik's Cube.

Can you pinch it just like that for me?
I'm going to take it back as slowly as

possible. Check it out. If I actually
take off a little piece, inside the tiny

little piece, you should notice.

Do you want to take it, unfold it for
me?

And a loud, clear voice. Is that the
kind of space?

No, best part, I want you to line it up.
Is that the same exact corner we just

took off?

Yes.

Now, every time I put it back together,
right?

See, I would do that, but since I ripped
it, it's not as impressive as if you do

it. So we're going to switch sides for
me.

We'll set it down.

Okay, hold out your right hand for me.

We're going to start the rip with the
tennis page. You want to grab the tennis

page corner, and you want to rip it off
for me and put it on your tongue.

And chew and swallow.

You want some water?

Swallow it? Yes, please.

Am I going to die later? You'll be fine.
You'll be fine.

Don't give me that look. It's all wrong.

Perfect. Open up your mouth wide.

All the way.

We're going to take the pen inside your
mouth. I want you to take your tongue.

Can you press up? Press up. Lift down.
Lift down.

Lift slowly all the way.

All the way up.

Wait, take your finger.

Is that reattached to the card? Yes.

That is for you to keep. Thank you so
much.

Next, amazing is the only way to
describe Greg Bruin.

He's a world... champion of magic, who
comes to us from Ontario, Canada, and he

never fails to amaze.

Here is Greg Fruin.

How's everyone doing?

Wow.

All right, I need to get three
volunteers tonight, but they're going to

random, so put your hands down.

I've got three balls here. They're
colored, they're numbered. I'm going to

them out into the crowd.

Make sure you catch the ball, and let's
not fight for the ball. I'm going to

start over here. There goes number one.

Looks like we've got a young man. Stand
up if you don't mind. Over here, number

two, coming in the center.

Looks like a lady. Stand up. Very good.
And over on this side, number three,

coming that way.

Excellent. The gentleman. Stand up, and
would you all please come to the stage,

give him a well -deserved round of
applause.

Let's hear it for them.

Very nice.

Your name is? Daryl. Daryl, nice to meet
you, Daryl. And you are?

Cindy. Nice to meet you. Get you over
here. And young man?

Alex. Alex, come on over and join us on
stage.

So we're going to try an experiment
tonight. I have an envelope here.

And since you're the youngest, I'm going
to have you hold on to the envelope.

Now here's what's going to happen. There
are three stools sitting behind you.

I'm going to let you guys get in a
little circle and discuss which stool

you like to sit in. It's up to you guys.

So go together and talk about it and
figure out which stool you guys want to

in. So don't just sit where you are now.

Making decisions here.

So you're going to go here. Okay. Have a
seat there, young man.

Young lady there. And very good.
Excellent.

So they all got to be chosen randomly.
They chose their seat randomly.

You've got an envelope. I want you to
hold on to that.

Keep it in your hand for now.

Because I've got a bag.

I've got over 80 different colors inside
this bag.

I want you to reach into the bag. Take a
color.

Make sure it's random, whichever one.
And hold it. Don't look at it. Okay, you

got it?

Excellent. You're going to do the same
thing. Reach down deep in the bag.

Excellent. You got one?

Perfect. And young man, you're going to
be the last one. Reach down inside, grab

a color, you've got it, and hold it like
that.

They could have chosen any color. They
chose the seat they sat in, and they

randomly selected tonight.

So we're going to try something really
cool.

Young man, you've been holding that
envelope the entire time, correct?

Let me take that envelope back.

Inside the envelope, I have one piece of
paper. I made a prediction in this

paper before we started.

You guys could have sat where you want.
It was a free choice, correct?

Ladies and gentlemen, I selected one,
two, three.

Look at that. Yellow, orange, blue. They
chose their seat, and I knew they were

going to sit.

But once again, I mentioned there was
over 80 different colors inside that

You all got to choose one. So I'm going
to come down and find out the first

selection that was made. What color did
you pick?

Let's see, can you read it out loud
there?

Purple pizzazz. Purple pizzazz.

That's your favorite color?

Well, you know what? You could have sat
anywhere. You don't even know you're

going to be a part of this trick
tonight.

Do you mind just standing up? Because
not only today did I buy these little

chips, I actually bought the paint that
went with it. Can you just move out of

the way just slightly here? Hold on to
that chip.

Underneath this cloth, you're going to
see this stool is purple pizzazz.

You've selected a color as well.

And once again, random. You didn't know
where you were going to sit. You didn't

know you were a part of this routine
tonight.

Let's see what color you picked tonight.

Magic mint green.

Magic mint green. Isn't that amazing? It
actually has the word magic in it.

Would you mind standing up?

Hold on to this color.

Check this out.

Underneath your stool, we have magic
mint green.

Thank you.

Well, you're the last one, young man.
You selected a color?

Let's see what your color is. Read it
out loud.

Premium clear coat.

Premium clear coat.

I didn't know that got in there.

So let me ask you an interesting
question. What color is premium clear

That's like a gloss, right? Like a clear
coat, a clear finish.

All right, do me a favor. Take this
little piece here, the clear coat. Stand

right over here. You're not going to
believe this.

We could have chose any color tonight.
You chose this one color here, and I

actually have one clear invisible chair.

It's actually 100 % invisible that you
were sitting on the entire time.

Well, that's it for tonight's Masters of
Illusion. I'm Dean Cain. Thank you so

much for watching.

High five?

Yes. All right.

All right. Thank you.

High five. Give me a high five.

Thanks, guys.

I'll take this off.

Thank you, guys, very much.

Bye -bye.
