Quick, quick, quick.

Thanks.

Over this series, I'm going to take you
on a journey into my world.

You can't even speak about it.

How does that happen?

You've got to be kidding me, man.

From deep inside the favelas of Rio de
Janeiro.

To the bright lights of the Vegas Strip.

It was crazy.

I have never seen that before in my
life.

Follow me as I bring a little magic into
people's lives.

How on earth can you do that?

And share with you the art of
astonishment.

My name's Stephen Fern, but most

people call me Dynamo.

It always amazes me how things can
change in an instant.

As my feet touched the cold water of the
Thames last summer, I never could have

dreamt what would happen next.

With fans including Jay -Z, Robbie
Williams, and Will Smith, he's fast

the most talked about magician in the
world.

Shout out to my homeboy Dynamo, the
magician.

Now that's magic.

This guy must be an alien or something.

I was in London's West End. I wanted to
try something with some of the people I

met. All they had to do was shake my
hand.

Hold your hand out like this.

Just tell me if you feel anything, any,
like, sensation.

Yeah, there's some sort of heat coming
out.

There's a thing between the heat and...
Hold onto my hand.

Look at me.

It's hot.

Hot. Yeah.

There's nothing on my hand, nothing
there, right?

You're sure? Nothing there. It was quite
hot.

I felt some heat coming out.

Hold my hand again.

Did it feel hotter?

It's getting hotter, yeah.

It's quite hot, yeah. One last time,
just hold my hand.

There's heat coming out. There's no way
I'm going to shake hands with you, my

friend.

It's too hot.

Thank you very much.

Feel anything?

Yeah, my hand, my hand's getting hot.
Try to take it a step further, yeah?

Can you feel anything, any energy coming
from my hand? Hot.

Is it hot, yeah?

No, no, no way, no way.

Look at me.

One last time for my hand. No, no, no,
no.

When I tried to shake his hand, there
was like an incredible heat coming out,

you know? It was really something
strange.

It's really strange, you know, like a
ball of fire.

It's like a school in park kettle
touching my hand.

It's great.

Me and my mate Jalera were heading down
to Adidas HQ in central London.

Got to be one of the quickest parts of
the job, though. One of the perks.

Yeah, standard.

Come in, kitted out, looking like a
million dollars.

That's you for LA.

Perfect, bro. Let me put it in your
thing, man. Add it to your top three

selection.

I need a ladder.

I need these ones up here. Dynamo City.

What? Why doesn't he levitate?

Why don't you use it when we need it,
man?

Find anything, yeah? Yeah, he wants
these.

They're for me, yeah?

Whilst I was there, I bumped into award
-winning British MC, Wretch32.

They're hooking you guys up today as
well.

Do any of you have any coins, any
change?

Let's need, like, one fine.

Yeah, just one coin will do.

Um, 10p?

Yeah. Yeah? I'm gonna use... Here, go
on.

I'm gonna take the coin.

Watch.

Woah!

Woah! Woah! Woah!

Woah!

Woah! Woah! Woah!

Woah! Woah!

Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah!
Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah! Woah!

Woah!

Woah! Do you know how hot that would
have to be?

Is it hot?

Yeah. If I could not.

It's scientifically possible, man. How
can you do that? How can you do that?

I don't know, man.

Can you undo your shoelace?

I can do mine as well.

And... Can you show us that behind you?

Yeah, can you cross me that?

That's it.

If you want to grab hold of your list
there, yeah?

I've got mine here, yeah?

Just put, make the end touch.

Hold it right there. I'm just going to
tape the end together, yeah?

Can you see that on the top?

Everyone see that?

Yeah. So now our letters are attached,
right? Yeah.

Weird, isn't it?

It's almost like a link if I

take

the end

Honestly, one last thing.

There's hundreds, if not thousands, of
pairs of sneakers in here.

Rich, I want you to have a look around
the display cabinet and just pick a

yeah?

Just stand up, have a little walk
around.

When you've got a pair, just point them
out to me.

Okay.

All right, do me a favour. Hold your
hands out like this.

And just tell me if you feel the heat.

Yeah. Yeah, you feel that, yeah?

All right.

to me further just back up a little bit
everyone back up a little bit over there

back up like this

I'm not shaking his hand.

What do you mean? That stained glass was
there. It's engraved.

When you see it in the flesh, it's
unreal.

It's unreal.

It's unreal.

I can't explain it.

I was scared, man. I was like,

whoa, what's he going to do?

It's so crazy.

They say a magician should never reveal
his secret.

But sometimes the secret is where the
magic lies.

Have you seen where I put the phone in
the bottle?

Yeah.

I want to show you how I do it.

Can I try something with yours?

You're not going to break it.

I'm not going to break it, I promise.

Do any of you have a bottle?

No. Is there anything in there? Yeah.
Can you finish it off? I'll just pour it

out.

So you've got a bottle and you've got a
phone.

So this is how I do it, yeah? I take the
phone, and first, I shrink it.

If it's a small phone, then take your
bottle,

so we can put it

inside the bottle.

So that's how you get it into the
bottle, but then you need to take it and

need to...

Make it bigger again.

Now he's got a smasher phone on the
floor to get it out.

That's how I get it inside the bottle.

Now it's up to you on how you get it
out. But actually, just to verify, can

call? You got a number? Can you call the
phone?

How are you going to get it out?

Oh, my God.

Oh my god.

Can I take a picture?

Can I take a picture? Who's weak?

Who's weak?

Thanks.

Where's Dynamite?

Dynamite. When did I get my phone back?

I can't even speak about it.

Oh my word.

He just dived over his head like Batman.
It was weird.

That was incredible.

When I walked through Bradford at night,
I often went into kids from the local

area.

If it wasn't for the people of Bradford,
I wouldn't be the person I am today.

Do any of you guys have any change in
points?

I want a big hand for you. I'll put them
in there, yeah?

Yeah,

this will do.

Watch.

I love

coming

home. My heart will always be in
Bradford.

It was here that I started filming my
adventures with my mate Marker. Got it,

oops. Action!

Yeah, hello everyone. My name's Dynamo.
I'm a magician from Bradford, which is

where we are now.

The camera guy here, that's Marker.
Hello.

For many people, Bradford can seem like
a bleak, run -down place.

But it's the people who live here that
make the city's heart beat.

When I'm in town, I always drop in on my
Nana and Grandpa to see how they're

doing.

The

Greenwood

pub is my family's local.

It's always nice to make a surprise
visit when I'm in town, and it's my

second home.

Are you guys going to come see
something?

What's your name?

Linda. Linda.

Hi, chicken.

Are you doing all right?

Mm -hmm. Are you ready to go to the
dark?

Perfect. You're perfect.

This is going to be exciting. I'm going
to thumb back. All right.

I want you to...

Take the three dots. Mm -hmm. I want you
to... Beware.

..to throw it at the dartboard, yeah?
But don't go for, like, the obvious

numbers. Obviously, everyone goes for
20s. You know, I want you to throw it so

that it hits the board in three random
numbers.

Sorry. That's a practice one. That's a
practice one, yeah?

Sorry.

Right, I'm ready now. Are you ready now?

Sorry. Yeah.

Don't number...

Treble eight, and then 17, and 15.

So you could have thrown it at any
random numbers.

Yeah. That is pretty random, right?

Definitely random.

I threw some darts earlier.

Right. On this dartboard.

I fell in here, and the first dart I got
treble eight. And you propped the two.

Two, and 17.

I finished with a 15.

Oh, my God.

There's one other thing that I forgot to
mention.

I actually... Oh, my God.

I missed it in my first half. Oh, my
word.

Unbelievable. Heck, honestly, seriously.

I walked in, threw the dart, and he'd
already known what I was throwing before

threw him.

How on earth can you do that? You can't,
can you? You have to see it to believe

it. Yeah, you do.

There's no explanation for it.

I've been trying to impress my nan for
the last 20 years.

You still do it crossword?

You do, yeah? Yeah.

So if you're doing that crossword, nan,
how long do you think it'll take you to

do it?

Oh, if I've got my good glasses.

Ten minutes. Ten minutes? That's pretty
quick.

If I've got my good glasses at home and
my good pen. Your good pen. You think

that's the fastest you could do it,
yeah?

Right, let me have a look at it.

Ten minutes, you're optimistic, aren't
you?

What's this?

That's it, yeah.

Even to this day, she's still not
impressed.

I did it quickly then, didn't I?

I did that in two seconds.

Right, have you done with me now?

My life has changed so much over the

past few years, but it's good to know
that my friends are along for the ride.

Despite crashing my car in Austria,
Jalera somehow managed to blag his way

becoming my driver.

And whenever I come home, I always catch
up with my two oldest mates, Marcus and

Johnny. It's that long ago, I don't
remember when I first, first met him. In

fact, you know what I do? We were
hanging out, just skateboarding, just

fun, you know what I mean? And obviously
he turned up, lived on a stayover at

Rhodes.

On this particular evening, we were on
our way to a nightclub on the outskirts

of Bradford. What is this by?

My friend from London, Mr. Towns.

He's come up and he's DJing there.

I don't really know what it is, but, you
know. You got us some VIP tickets?

Yeah, we'll go up on the stairs and DJ
with him, innit?

On the stairs?

Yeah. This is it, though.

Let's party.

Let's go, Dynamo City.

When we were younger, it was always
tough getting into places.

The bouncers would always hassle us and
I used to perform just to get us through

the door.

Now, things are different.

The problem with nightclubs nowadays
isn't for getting in, it's for getting

But no matter what's in front of me, I
always find a way to leave by the front

door.

I was just on a night out, and all of a
sudden, we saw Dynamo on the stage. I

just knew the DJ and we were getting on
with him. I was like, Stephen, what are

you doing? He flies over everybody. I
was like, oh my God.

He just dived over his head like Batman.
It was weird.

He's got this kind of magnetism to him.

Literally, in seconds, he was closed.

I travel so much nowadays, it seems like
my feet hardly touch the ground.

From city to city,

country to country,

I watch as the world flashes before my
eyes.

Sometimes, It all feels like a dream.

I often fall asleep and when I wake up,
the whole world around me has changed.

Sometimes, I wonder how I ended up here,
at a pool party in the middle of the

desert with all these people.

It all seems like a blur.

But before I know it, I'm back on a
flight to the next destination.

I had arrived in the historic city of
Venice for the start of the World Poker

Tour.

Venice is one of the most beautiful
cities on Earth.

It feels like you've stepped back in
time.

Sometimes it's nice to get out of the
madness of London and visit somewhere

that's a little more... green.

I love

my fans,

but they always seem to turn up when I
least expect it.

Like this group of Welsh students.

Take a pad out Write your name on there,
yeah

Shorty to everybody

And then just come back

there I'm gonna take a different card
out of the pack. That's not your card,

it? No, not the one I can see right now

Cheers. Cheers.

Cheers. Cheers. Cheers. Cheers. Cheers.
Cheers. Cheers.

Cheers.

Cheers. Cheers. Cheers.

Cheers. Cheers. Cheers.

The World Poker Tour was taking place at
the Casino di Venezia, the oldest

casino on the planet.

It's crazy to think people were visiting
this place in the 1600s.

Now it's my pleasure to introduce you...
Dynamo!

As the tournament got underway, you
could feel the electricity and tension

the room.

These were big money games, and it was
just a question of who would pack first.

I was pretty confident I could beat
anyone in the room, but understandably,

wouldn't let me enter.

During a break, I caught up with one of
poker's newest stars, Giovanni Rizzo.

Although I wasn't allowed to play, I
still wanted to put my skills to the

You playing in the tournament today?

I am playing in the tournament, yeah.
I'm still in right now. Still in right

now? You must be feeling confident. If
you can walk away for a little while,

come in here. I mean, it's a big
occasion to see the magic here, so I'm a

fan. They say you have to have a good
poker face, right? Absolutely.

Do you have a good poker face? I hope I
do.

Do you think you've got any tells?

Although, to be honest, if you had a
tell, you probably wouldn't tell. I

shouldn't tell. You shouldn't tell,
yeah? Yeah. All right. I should keep it

secret. I want to see how good your
poker face is.

Okay. Because I don't really play poker,
but I'm quite good at reading people.

Yeah. Do you want to give the cards a
shuffle?

Oh, sure.

Here you go.

Just choose a pile.

This one. This one? Yeah.

What I want you to do is slide a card
off the top, peek at the top card, and

just focus on the color, whether it's a
black card or a red card.

Okay. Yeah, I'll do that.

Got it. Got it? Yep.

Don't give it away.

Look at me.

It's a red card.

It is a red card. Turn it over.

Look at the next one. I'm going to go
and look.

You got it?

Yep.

You blinked that time, so I'm going to
say it's a black card.

It is a black card.

Look at the next one.

I will never play poker with you, by the
way.

It's a black card. You're trying to hold
it this time, but you're trying not to

blink on it and give it away. Turn that
one over. It is a black card.

Yeah. Look at the next one.

That's a red one.

I don't know.

And the next one, we'll go quickly on
this one.

Red. It is. That's amazing.

That's black.

Red. What?

Black one.

Red.

Red.

Alright. That one's black.

And you shuffled these at the beginning.
I did. You picked the pile. I did.

I did.

That one's red.

The last one. Peek at it.

I got it.

Yeah? I'm not just gonna go for the
colour.

I'm also gonna go...

To the whole suit and the name of the
character. No way. All right.

Okay.

To a space.

To a space.

Wow, that's impressive.

I was always skeptic about this kind of
tricks, but when you actually think

what's really happening, it's
impressive.

He's got this kind of magnetism to him,
you know, the way he looks at you. It's

a little bit hard trying to concentrate
and not give it away, but I guess he did

it.

Venice was great fun, but as the World
Poker Talk came to an end, it was time

head back home.

Nowadays, my life seems to move at the
speed of light with every movement

on camera it's funny we live so much of
our life through the screen of a mobile

phone or a computer it's easy to forget
how amazing the real thing is

i want to try something using my phone
you can actually

find the balancing point on a phone
right there you can actually balance it

which that's pretty cool right yeah

If you practice, you can take it a step
further and you can...

So,

that's what I can do with my phone, but
let me try something with your phones.

Let's see. I only need a few.

One, two. Can I use this one?

Three. Can I use yours?

Oh yeah, these are perfect.

So, let's try this.

Tough crowd.

That is...

I've no idea how he did it. Especially
this one. I know.

Because they were our phones as well. It
was just so outrageous.

You just can't understand how it managed
to do that.

That kind of caught there? It is. I'll
try to pull it out here. Just keep hold

of it tight, yeah? Yeah. Don't take it
out of your sight.

Is this your daughter? Yeah.

Can I take you on a trip? Sure.

Alright. So, I've got... What's your
name, sir?

Ivis. I've got Ivis Tango.

Alright, let's try this.

I've got Tango.

Oh,

God.

We've got some of the cork there.

What's this thing?

I don't know.

Oh, my God. What happened?

Oh. No.

No way. No way. Oh, my God. If this is
the cork, you must have the time. No

No, no, no.

No, no, no, no.

Oh,

I'm freaking out here.

Is this orange, yeah? Is that tango?

Is that tango?

Yeah.

Check. Is that caught? Open that up,
test it. Is that caught?

Tired as well.

Oh, wow.

That's so good.

Walking past, wife says, that's dynamo.
We

walk over and...

Next thing we know, he's turned coke
into tango and tango into coke.

That's unbelievable.

That's freaky.

I mean, really freaky.

I was visiting a studio in North London
to meet one of my favourite recording

artists, Lobby. Candyman, Candyman,
Candyman, Candyman.

Thank you. Yep.

Disappear.

Your first album just dropped, yeah?

I want you to think of a song from the
first album.

From Electronica, yeah? Yeah, think of
any song from Electronica.

Got it? Okay, got it in mind.

It begins with F, right?

There's a couple of songs on the album
that begin with F.

Yeah.

You know what, actually?

It's not one word, it's two.

You alright?

Sweet, right?

I thought I could get you to sign this
for me, because you've got my album, so

I've got yours.

Or your DVD, anyway.

I'm going to do it. I might as well do
it, you know, in my typical style.

Right, watch.

This guy's insane.

He's still in the wrap -up.

I don't know what to say, bro. I really
don't. This guy's next level. He just

signed my DVD with the rapper on.

It is pen, because I can see.

But he's done it with his mind in some
way.

What's wrong with this guy? I'm still
scratching my head.

I'm trying to work it out. I'm a
skeptic, I've got to tell you. I'm

skeptic. But today, he's made me a
believer, man. No strings attached.

It's literally magic.

I had the world at my feet, I was living
the dream, and it seemed like nothing

could stop me.

But suddenly everything changed, and my
life was turned upside down.

My grandpa, who had raised me and given
me the belief to follow my dreams,

became extremely sick overnight and was
given days to live by the doctors.

As soon as he found out he was up north,
at his side, I didn't hesitate to get

back up.

I just came home and just spent time
with him, to be honest, just to say

goodbye.

Ken brought him up from quite a young
age, taught him everything he knew.

He got him into magic.

He even taught him how to swim, ride a
bike, everything, you know what I mean?

He liked life himself a lot. Always
smiling, always laughing, joking,

On Wednesday 29th February 2012, my
grandpa, Kenneth Walsh, passed away.

You can tell when you speak to him, he's
a bit more subdued and a bit more

thoughtful.

It's a brave face, I think. I think it's
affecting him more than he likes to

admit.

It's been hard to know that someone that
he's cared about so much is gone and

he's got to fill that void.

It's just trying to help him, really.

I think Canada wanted him to have a bit
of a cry.

Get over it sooner rather than later.
Don't drag it out and then obviously get

back to what he's doing because it's all
thanks to him why he's doing it.

After my grandpa passed, I locked myself
away in Bradford for weeks.

I didn't want to see anybody or hear
from anyone.

It was like the magic had died with him.

It was a long time before I performed
any magic again, but slowly I started to

venture out and let the cameras back
into my life.

There are still parts of Bradford where
I'm not recognised and people don't know

my name.

It allowed me to get back to the roots
of my magic.

A month later, I finally headed back
down to London, where Labyrinth had

me to his acoustic show at London's
biggest music store, HMB.

When I'm there right in front of you,
look in your eyes.

Kiss me like you used to.

Back then when I was a man, no.

Kiss me like you used to.

Let me get your body going.

Let me get your body.

For some reason, being back in London
didn't feel right.

Something had changed.

Have you ever had a time in your life
when things get on top of you, where it

feels like there's no escape, and all
you want to do is vanish into thin air?

I think it's affecting more than I like
to admit.

I don't know where he went. I don't know
what happened.

That was incredible.

Literally in seconds he was closed.

That's it.

That's what I'm explaining like that.

Dynamo is closed.

He walked around the corner. We followed
him to try and get a couple more and

that's it. He's gone. In front of me.
Where is he?

He's gone.
