All language subtitles for Criss Angel BeLIEve s01e02 Blind.eng

Morning. What you're about to witness
can be dangerous.

Attempting it can result in death.

Don't try this at home.

On this episode of Bully.

What the hell is going on?

Now!

I'm going to walk on an ivy and 60 feet
in the air. And I want to do it blind.

I want to actually die. You know that,
right? No!

Isn't it hard enough to be walking
across a beam without there being a gap

the middle?

Falling is not the problem. The bitch is
hitting the ground. That's making me

very nervous.

I'm stressed out.

I'm not using a safety line.

I don't know if I will be able to
accomplish this today.

Chris Angel, Believe.

I got rope.

What am I going to use that for?

Put something on top of this or
underneath.

Oh, I can stand on that. One of the
things I love about what I do is I can

perform anywhere, anytime, with everyday
objects and literally bug people out.

You know how to make a knot, man?

Let me show you.

We're going to do something. We're going
to put my...

My wrist in here. I want you to tie it
tight and make a knot. Just make sure I

can't... Well, check it out, folks. Why
don't you come over here so you can get

a nice close look?

That's definitely tight. That's not
going to... We're going to do the same

on this side, all right?

People think from the back happens.

Stay right over here.

I want you to see this.

Obviously, I could get out, but it would
take me some time. You can see my...

It's tight, man. It's like you can see
my skin right over there. Look at that.

Okay.

Now...

The reason why I asked you to do this is
I'm preparing for something a little

bit bigger than this and crazier, but
this is kind of cool because it involves

little bit of an escape and something
else.

I want you to pull, okay? Pull.

Keep it taut, okay?

Completely impossible conditions.
Nothing below, nothing above, nothing

Watching me back there?

Good.

VG, George, come on in. Grab the cloth.

Keep it about. Bring it up a little bit
more. That's fine. A little bit more.

There you go. Good.

Check it out. It's going to happen right
in front of you. You will not believe

this. Check it out.

Watch.

No matter how you slice it,

success comes from working hard,
challenging yourself.

and having a team second to none.

It's going to be a hard one to pull off,
though. We've got to do it just right.

Banachek is my sounding board, my extra
set of eyes. And as a world -renowned

mentalist, he understands sensibility
and process from my perspective.

We're kind of in like a whole new
territory.

John's job is to take what I create and
lay it out on paper, test the method and

challenge and tweak it until it's
ironclad.

Every night.

Doug's my fabricator. And not only is he
a magician, it's his job to take my

ideas and John's blueprints and build
them into working models.

It's amazing!

Kristen is my apprentice.

There are almost too many variables. One
day she'll get her shot in Whimsical,

my live tour.

But right now, her job is to watch,
learn, and help fill in wherever needed.

He'll kind of stand away from it.

Jesse's my researcher.

And he's responsible for everything from
finding unusual and rare props to

forecasting the weather conditions.

I'll get a permit and we'll lock it
down.

And last but not least, Spiro's my crazy
Greek. And it's his job to find the

right location to accommodate the crowd
and our production rig.

What's

up,

guys? Oftentimes, I'm inspired by
attempts that others have made

history. But for me, it's always about
upping the stakes.

How's everybody doing? Good.

We're in the business of using trickery,
illusions, deception.

And I don't want to use any of that.

Changing careers?

We're going to try something that is
completely real. This is not about

This is about another category.

a category I like to call superhuman,
where it's about really relying on your

own skill, your own athleticism and
training to see can you do something

completely legitimate, noble.

I have been fascinated with high wire
acts. I just saw a wonderful show here

town by Cirque du Soleil, Zircana, and
there was a high wire act in there that

blew my mind.

People that are able to have amazing
balance and be able to navigate

from one end to the other end.

The only difference, if I want to do it,
lie.

High wire acts die, you know that,
right?

The best in the world. In the late 70s,
Carl Walenda passed away.

He'd been doing it his whole life.
Exactly, he was the one who created the

Daredevil Circus Act.

Doesn't necessarily have to be on a
wire.

I was thinking...

about a beam of some kind. Oh, like an I
-beam? Something like that. An I -beam

that would be suspended.

And I want the audience to understand
110 % that I cannot see.

You do know, though, it's sort of a bit
of a myth that when you take one sense

away, your other senses automatically
become enhanced.

What happens is you become more
enhanced. No, you rely upon them more.

become more focused. You become more in
tuned with them. But when you take your

sight away, that's totally messing with
your vestibular system, which is like

your sense of balance.

It's about getting yourself conditioned
and getting muscle memory and getting

yourself in that environment so it feels
second nature. The blind is a nice

touch. steel walkers high walkers who do
this every day for a living i think

this is what separates you from those
people who do this every day the average

person who's not even afraid of height
30 feet is the breaking point it's your

mind saying what if i fall yeah well
falling is not the problem it's the

is hitting the ground i don't even know
if this is possible i don't even know if

i can do this And you have to look at
locations. What are we looking at here?

Outside, we're looking at buildings,
cranes. I would love to do it at the

between the East and West Tower. I think
that would be epic.

What about an airbag or anything like
that? No safety. At this point, I want

go for it 100%. I want to try to do it.
What about during rehearsals at least?

Yeah, well, for rehearsals, of course.

There's one little caveat.

I want to add a break.

In the middle. So essentially, it's two
independent teams.

And that's really good. The audience
will see me approaching and I'm sure

be able to hear a pin drop.

Hey, mom, you don't want to hear what
I'm about to do.

What are you going to do?

I can't.

No, it's not dangerous.

No, don't worry. I haven't even planned
it yet. Don't worry, Mom.

I love you very much.

I got to run because we got to get
working on this, okay? All right. Okay.

love you, too. Whatever you do, please,
please be careful. Thank you, Mom. I

love you.

I don't envy my mom for having a kid
like me who's always trying to conjure

ways to potentially kill himself.

But my mom knows who I am, what I am,
and she completely supports me.

Chris, what other stuff are you going to
need?

Should I go get some blindfolds and get
some different kinds?

I just need something that people can
put on, see for themselves. It's

completely legit. Something very simple.
Right, right. All right.

John and Doug need to figure it out
while I practice my balance and focus.

All right, guys. Thanks so much. All
right.

I'll see you.

This demonstration features two I -beams
suspended 60 feet off the ground, a two

-foot gap between them.

Chris Angel will be blindfolded.

Category of magic, superhuman.

I got a call from my friend Ludacris.

I'm going to stop by and bug his ass
out.

I know you're making the buck. I see all
the people waiting for you down there

by the pool.

So why don't you just pull out some cash
for me, man? What kind of cash do you

want me to pull out? You know, one of
your bills, you know?

And do me a favor. When I ask you to
grab my wrist, you're just going to grab

wrist like this, okay? Just grab my
wrist, okay? And don't let go of my

okay? Get out.

Honestly, we haven't set this up. Right.
Right.

You don't know what I'm going to do.
Anybody here, right? Okay, check it out.

No leg.

What the hell is going on right now?

Come on.

I definitely, I don't know how he did
it, and I will be trying to figure it

for the rest of my life.

Coming up. The crazy

thing with gymnastics is that so many
skills are blind landing, so I can help

you out a little bit. They want him to
use the safety line too.

He's going to tape your line.

He's going to tape your line.

Kristen, it comes out of the car right
now.

I got to run. Bye.

I'm sorry I'm late. Come on, hey.

This is my table.

This is like kicking it old school when
I used to perform magic on the streets

of New York. Use a trash can, piece of
wood on top. I like it.

Cool, cool.

I need a deck of cards.

Anybody bring me a deck of cards? I have
a deck of cards. You have a deck.

You see, it's fair.

This is what we're going to do.

I'm going to ask you to count how many
red cards you spot as I deal them out.

So women at home that are watching, it's
very important to count how many red

cards you see me deal out.

Guys, you're going to represent the
guys, Ray.

You're going to count how many black
cards you spot.

So women get the red card, and the guys
are going to count the black card.

Now, it's a little windy out here, so
I'm going to ask you to put your hand

right over here for me. Keep it out
there, right? Yeah. I'm going to deal in

your hand. You ready?

All right, let's begin.

a little faster at the end, trying to
see how good you can follow.

Was it a little tricky at the end there?
Yes, it was.

How many red cards did you count?

I believe I counted 14.

Wow, that was close.

You're actually just one off. There were
13 red cards.

Now, Ray, for all the guys, how many
black cards did you count?

I counted 13.

13 is exactly the amount.

There were actually 13 red cards and 13
black cards. But you see, it was never

about the color of the cards at all.

While I was asking to count the cards, I
created inattentional blindness.

See, while you were counting the cards,
I had a secret message on the back.

Did you see it?

actually 21 changes that took place
right in front of your eyes.

Did you spot them?

Well, let's do a little rewind.

Anybody bring me a deck of cards? I have
a deck of cards. You have a deck.

Count how many you spot as ideal
amounts.

So women at home represent the guy.

You're going to count how many

That's a little windy.

I believe

I

counted 14.

For all the guys, how many black cards
did you count? I counted 13.

Reality is your perception.

And by the way, if you're thinking to
yourself, where's change number 22?

Right here.

Banachek, you ready?

Is it hard enough to be walking across a
beam without there being a gap in the

middle? Yeah, but close your eyes and
try and do it. So for this

Chris is going to be suspended 60 or 70
feet in the air, blindfolded.

The basic concept is two I -beams
suspended from two cranes.

And for Chris to make it even more
difficult for himself, he wants a two

gap. Now, he has to make it over that
gap without falling to his death.

And you know, I do like cutting stuff.

So the I -beam just arrived.

We've got to measure it, cut it in half
into two pieces so we can suspend it in

the air and see what we're dealing with.

One, two, three.

There we go.

And that's two feet. He was asking for
three feet, I think it was. But I think

we need to get him over here and try
this part out. Because even two feet

We checked one challenge off the list,
but now we have to make rigging plates,

we have to make anchors, and we have an
enormous amount of other stuff that

needs to be built.

Two ends and the center, and we'll be
good to go. Yep. Easy, right?

It's going to be great.

I create illusions, but blind is no
illusion. It's completely real. It's

physical, and it's mental.

I've been training with my friend Pedro,
who's a high -wire act in Zarkana.

But now I got to start training on a
beam. I would recommend practicing on a

beam this height also.

Hi, nice to meet you. We brought in
Olympic gold medalist Jordan Weaver.

Take me through if I was going to start
from there and walk across.

You have to think about your core and
keeping it really stable.

And you just look at the end and just
walk across.

So when you're losing your balance, what
do you do?

If I feel myself lose my balance, I just
kind of pull it back a little bit and

obviously keeping your arms out to the
side.

a good way to kind of feel the balance.

Uh -huh. So, beam is all feeling.

Yeah. I noticed you put your foot to the
side.

What is that about?

If you feel yourself, you're walking and
you start to go like this. Right.

You can grip the beam with your toes.

Oh, okay.

Boom.

Close your eyes. Try to step.

Try to step.

It's a lot more difficult than even
Jordan makes it look.

But I want to test my ability and get on
that tight wire and push myself even

further.

Yeah, that's amazing.

That just shows all the years and
discipline of doing what you do. You

going to be ready for my big blind walk?

No.

Coming up.

Very different up here, buddy.

No.

Despite my studly exterior, I'm really
not a shackles and blindfolds kind of

guy.

Whoa.

But when Chris performs the I -beam
walk, he really wants to make sure that

audience knows he can't see anything.

He's rehearsing it later today, so I'm
here to take one for the team.

Hi. Hi.

How are you?

I'm the one that called about blindfold
and stuff.

You're definitely in the right place.
Yeah?

Can I try one of these on?

Yeah. Do you have a preference?

Maybe this one.

This one? Yeah.

This one's kind of cool.

Put it on in the right direction.

The other way.

Let's look at the tags on your
underwear, too.

Yeah.

They're always backwards. I can't see.

Sometimes I wonder if Chris really knows
what I have to go through to deliver

these requests.

Maybe something less tight. This might
be perfect.

Can I take it down? Yeah. Is that cool?

Well, that would definitely make it so
you can't see anything.

I can't see anything.

This is great.

I'll take it.

We're going to try a little test of the
blind demonstration.

I'm going to keep my eyes closed.

High wire acts have proven themselves
deadly in the past.

In just a few days, I'm going to be more
than six stories above the ground.

Right now, I want to practice with the
beans on the ground.

Here? Yes. My eyes are open now.

Yeah!

Now that I've done it with my eyes
closed, I want to see if it's possible

take it to the next level.

Can I make it from point A to point B
wearing the actual hood that I'll be

wearing during the demonstration?

If you got this the first time, I'd be
shocked.

Is it easier being 100 feet and not
being able to see? I don't know. I

been... 100 feet.

Take your time. Take your time.

Whoa.

Whoa.

I made it?

Yep, yep, yep, yep.

All people that see it at home,
seriously, I want you to see it

Inside, you can't see anything.

And I would love to not have anything on
me, just literally just have my eyes

closed, but you won't be able to see
that from down there. I don't know how

people. Is there a way to get my eyes
sewn shut? Just like, no, no, I'm

Like, like literally sewn my eyelids
together. I think you keep it simple

because you've got everything else going
on.

Okay. I'm going to split.

I'm going to come back tomorrow.

All right, buddy. Awesome.

Thank you.

52 cards.

I want you to see one card and burn it
in your mind.

Get one card in your mind. Don't tell me
what it is. You have it? Yep. Good.

I want you to take your hands and put
them over my eyes so I can't see. I'll

keep my eyes closed.

Just cover.

There you go. I'm going to put the cards
in the air. Just think of your card.

Burn it in your mind. And I want you to
see. See it and I want you to feel it

and almost send me what that would feel
like. Send it to my hands, to my

fingertips. Just send it to me. Just
send it to me. Send it to me.

Send it to me, okay?

I want you to tell me what your card is
right now. Tell me.

Two red diamonds.

What the hell?

How did you do that?

Oh, my God.

I've been bucked in my ass training on
the ground, and now it's all going to be

tested as I go up 30 feet.

The mind starts playing tricks on you
when you're up this high.

Very different up here, buddy.

Very different. I got you. You ain't
going to fall.

There's no falling, man.

Do me a favor, okay? I know he's going
to have to wear a harness.

He's fighting and he doesn't want to
wear a harness.

And every time you bring it up, all he
does is get upset.

Just wait until we get a lot closer to
it.

Forget about grabbing back, okay? Fight.

Now you're on your own. I want you to
fight it.

Grab that cable, grab it.

Good, good.

Thanks for helping.

Chris has performed a lot of life
-threatening demonstrations,

but this is the first time that things
have been so completely dependent on

It's not like he's going in a bog.

He's not lying on a table.

It's all up to him.

No.

Motherfucker. That was great, man.

You were doing good, bro. You did good.

So fun.

Coming up.

I honestly don't know if I will be able
to accomplish it today.

Tomorrow, I'm going to attempt to cross
two I -beams more than six stories above

the ground.

But this will be the very first time
rehearsing on the suspended I -beams.

We're at about 10 miles an hour right
now.

It just went from zero to 10 in a gust,
and that's all you need to start shoving

this around. But you'll watch this.
We'll be fine, and then it just takes

And see, that's worse than a steady
wind.

28 miles an hour, 75 feet up is very
dangerous. You understand that, right?

Yeah, it makes sense. It makes sense. So
he's going to be pissed. We're looking

at Chris's safety here. That's very
important.

This is going to be hard enough to do
even without a blunt.

Freaking I -beam is moving around, you
know, not an inch or two, like feet.

There's nothing supporting it. So those
two are just going like this, literally

like this.

Let it go, let it go.

It's moving like crazy.

The wind's crazy.

Holy.

It's really wiggly.

Wind.

I want to be able to do it seeing.

I can't even do it seeing right now.

Wendy. I wanted

to train outside, but Mother Nature has
been a bitch.

You always have to have a plan B, so
Spiro better come up with something

The good news is, I found a mall that's
willing to let us stage this

demonstration tomorrow.

The bad news is, Chris is not going to
like one of their conditions.

I know we promoted the hell out of this,
and... They want him to use the safety

line, too.

I'm not doing a safety line. You already
know that. I know you don't want to do

it. I am not doing a safety line.
They're going to shut you down if you do

am not doing a safety line.

No,

I'm not doing that. No, I don't give
a... Here.

I'm not using a safety line.

Get him.

To me, the most powerful kind of magic
is the magic that can have a meaningful

effect on somebody's life.

Trust me. It's all right.

Trust me.

Freaking hot out, man. You got all this
heavy stuff.

It's my life, bro.

Yeah.

What's this? Oh, you just bought it. Got
a jacket. It's a nice jacket.

This is like a winter jacket, though,
man, huh?

It's like a winter.

It's like a winter jacket, huh? Yeah.
Here, check it out.

Now!

Okay.

Here you go.

Thank you. No problem. Thank you.

My pleasure. God bless you, my friend.

Cool, man. That's it.

The main thing is just make sure it's

safe.

Get it up.

You just don't take and pick up a 2 ,400
-pound thing and fly it in the air and

say, okay, let's go. It's very complex.
We have a lot of people, and we're

pushing and pushing against the clock.

Did you climb up on that? No, no.

Keep your body this way. And if you
start shaking like that, just kind

of stop. Try it. Go on it. Bend your
knees. You know what I mean? Go on.

Wow, it shakes a lot.

Here's the guy that's been doing it for
how many years?

I'm not used to having a conversation
with him. How many years have you been

doing it?

Look at how crazy that side's going.
It's moving nine inches. That's moving

probably a foot.

This is making me very nervous.

I know that, but it's got to be a hell
of a lot more stable if I'm going to be

blind. We're almost ready.

So, Chris, we got your harness yet?

Huh? Got your harness yet?

Or this run?

For rehearsal?

I want a harness, but not tomorrow.

We have no wind in here right now. It's
still 50 feet.

How high did you walk your high wire?
You didn't have no harness on, did you?

Yeah, you have a harness? No. Exactly.

How many years you been doing it?

25. Yes, but... How many years you been
doing it? Well, he walked on a high

wire. This is a four -inch beam.

It doesn't matter. I personally think
he's ready.

I'm not going to allow it to go forward.
Dude, don't piss me off right now. I

don't need this.

Whenever we do this kind of stuff with
Chris, he's always very resistant about

wearing a safety line.

And I think it is imperative that he
does.

Today, I'll be attempting my blind eye
bimoire, more than six stories off the

ground.

Right now, I'm proving to myself that
what I learned training with Cirque and

Jordan Weaver has prepared me for the
challenge I'll face in a matter of hours

in front of thousands of fans.

and show them all welcome to blind.

I honestly don't know if I will be able
to accomplish this today. I just got to

remain focused so I can attempt and
execute and complete for all

of you what I call blind.

Down here it's wobbling, but up there it
keeps saying that.

You can see it just vibrating.

This safety harness is a huge
distraction for me. If I do fall, I

crack my head open on the side of the I
-beam.

For me, I'd much rather rely on my
training.

But unfortunately, they're not giving me
that as an option.

All right, ladies and gentlemen, you
want to see this?

I have a wristband that I'm going to
toss out there. Here we go.

You got it, brother.

Give him a nice round of applause.

Nice to meet you. What's your first
name? Chris.

Chris, ladies and gentlemen.

He will be your eyes. He will be the
truth for you. Over here, we have a

blindfold. I want you to put your head
in here.

Tell us if you can see anything.

No, I can't see anything.

Absolutely nothing?

Nothing.

Is that legitimate?

That is legitimate. I can't see
anything.

Now, to make this even fairer, I want
you to pick anybody at random and let me

put the bag over their head.

Right here. Okay.

Can you see anything?

No. Watch.

You can't see what I'm doing?

No. I'm punching you in the face right
now. You can't even see it.

I'm just teasing you.

Actually, I was just going like this to
see if you saw my hand. But you can't

see through it. Is that true?

No, I can't see through it. All right,
so have we established it's fair, ladies

and gentlemen?

One other thing, ladies and gentlemen.

I'm going to put, I have a drawstring on
there. I'm going to pull that so you

can't, I can't see down. And to further
prove that.

I'm going to be wrapping duct tape
around me all the way down to my neck

chin so I can't peek down. I just don't
want anybody thinking I'm really doing

it. I'm not bullshitting you.

So here we go.

Are you good? Are you good?

Let's go.

It's hot.

I want to get going, guys. Okay.

All right, stand by. Let's just get
ready to go up. Clear the ropes. Watch

ropes. Guys, stand back.

We're going to be going up.

Palms are good. Thank you.

Deep breaths.

Deep breaths.

God bless you all. Live your dreams.
Believe.

Chris has genuinely done what no one has
ever accomplished, or even extended to

that matter.

He's living history.

Thank you very much.

I didn't think I was going to be able to
do it. My legs are shaking.

I'm so overwhelmed with emotion.

No kidding.

I can understand that.

Nobody in the world would have done
this.

So, I mean, my hat's off to you. You are
a legend. Did you get a good picture?

Yeah. You're crazy.

You are crazy. I'm going to...
