All language subtitles for Criss Angel BeLIEve s01e03 Raise the Dead

Warning. 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 Believe.

No! No! No!

No way.

This is nuts.

What happened when you passed on? What
if I was able to bring

somebody back from the dead?

Can I?

Bring back somebody from the other side.

This is where all of us will end up.
Welcome, ladies and gentlemen. This

demonstration is an exercise in what is
possible.

There was some kind of a spirit present.

I have no explanation for that. This is
not magic. This is a real...

Is Jesse meeting us here?

Yes. Oh, my gosh. What? That's
disturbing.

I'm sorry. That just caught me off
guard. Oh, man.

It was, like, still moving. Oh,

he just... Oh, he hit the window.

They do that at my house, but they
usually get up and fly.

Oh, man.

Look at him.

His neck looks like it's severed.
Don't... Chris.

Chris? Seriously, let's not play this.

Look at his head.

Look at his nerve.

Oh my gosh.

Are you...

There are many unexplained cases of
somebody who passed away that was

dead and somehow, someway, an hour
later, were able to be revived.

Very mysterious look.

My goal today is to challenge death for
just one more breath.

You know, I lost my father in 98 in my
hand.

And to this day, I...

I've always said I would give everything
back that I've ever been able to

acquire. I even take years off my life.
I just have one second with him again.

Everybody is fascinated with death.

What happens when you pass on?

Religions are based in that principle.

The principle that either something
happens to your soul, you have a soul,

you just go back to where you come from,
the earth?

My whole belief is on my knuckles and
putting on hold.

What if I was able to bring somebody
back from the dead for one last breath?

How do you bring somebody back from the
dead?

That's what we're going to explore.

Raise the dead is the ultimate morbid
stunt.

Since the beginning of time, man has
been fascinated with raising the dead.

at the biggest story out there. Jesus
Christ came back from the dead. You take

look at the Egyptians always trying to
raise the dead. And even in our popular

culture, we've got vampires,
Frankenstein, and the list goes on and

What if we had a room filled with
witnesses, doctors, paranormalists?

People that would all concur that for a
moment this person reunited with his

body. You want paranormal experts, which
I have contacts with, by the way, who

would be perfect for this. Right.

And maybe medical students?

Medical students would be great. I
welcome everybody. It seems like we have

start from a baseline that this person
is clinically dead. There's a death

certificate. There's documentation.

Do we reveal the secret at the end?
There is no secret.

That's why we need to have experts in
the field concur that this person's

And you can do that by taking a pulse,
by having them hooked up to different

monitor systems. So there has to be a
connection made between this

person's shell and their soul. So you
want to reconnect them for a moment.

Yep.

Seems like one of our biggest challenges
is finding the subject.

Who's going to be responsible for
finding a dead body?

You are, Spiro.

I mean, are we looking at a morgue, at a
funeral parlor? I think we're looking

at all of those options.

Can this be done? Can we get a subject?

Where can we do this? We're in Nevada,
one of the few states that allows...

dead people to be on display in the
bodies museum let's get the instruments

paranormalist witnesses maybe college
students let's get a nice eclectic group

of people in a room together and let's
make people believe all

right i want to watch this one

i know scary

This demonstration features a human
cadaver, the life force of a human

a secret location.

Chris will enlist expert witnesses,
category of magic, superhuman.

You know what? Let's try something.

One of my greatest inspirations in
magic.

is a gentleman by the name of Ricciardi.

He performed the simplest of magic with
ordinary objects and had the most

powerful effect.

I try to do the same thing. The only
difference is I do it on the streets.

Okay.

You have some rims here.

You have a silver rim and you have a
black rim.

Which one do you like, the black rim or
the silver rim?

Black. Black. Goes with your pants.

Check this out. Do you see the axle? Do
you see the axle?

Yeah.

Now, come over here, man.

You're going to put one hand. I want you
to hold this like this with your left

hand, all right? All right.

You're going to hold that when I tell
you, okay? Right now, this is the

on the axle.

Yeah. Okay.

Cool. Now, come over here.

Is that your boy?

Yeah, come over here, man.

What's up? What's your name?

Raymond, nice to meet you. What's your
name?

Coco. Coco.

Is that your real name?

Yes. Hey, turn around. Come over here.

What I'm going to do is I want you to
take her feet, okay? And, Ray, since

you're my boy, you're going to take her
head. You're just going to completely

trust me and relax, okay?

Completely relax. When I tell you to
grab onto that, you do that, okay?

All right, here we go.

Just completely relax. Forget about
everything. Forget about where you are.

at me, Coco. Look at me.

Completely relax.

Completely.

Relax this hand completely.

Relax completely.

Oh, get her feet, guys. We're going to
balance her. Now, you've got to get,

you've got to hold this.

You've got to hold it like this for me.
Okay?

You got it? Yeah. Okay. Now, just
balance her just like that, guys. Just

her just like that. Now, watch.

Watch. Let go. Let go of your feet.
Slowly.

Slowly. Good right. Slowly.

Oh, my God.

Check this out.

Hey Chris.

Yeah. I know you want to take mentalism
to a whole new level.

Yeah. But this raise the dead thing,
which I think is a great concept, except

the whole idea of using your real body,
that's what I'm having an issue with.

No, I mean it. How do you raise the dead
if you don't have a real body?

I mean, then it's just bullshit. It's
just the freaking... But that's the

point. You're a magician. You're an
illusionist. I mean, now you want to get

real body and bring it back to life? Do
I or do I not? Yes, and I'll do things

that are real that blur the line between
reality and illusion. Do I do some

stuff that's real? You do. Okay, and I
do stuff that's illusion.

Do we blur that line and allow people to
determine... You can't just blur the

line without getting a real dead body.

Real dead body? People are going to say,
oh, that's not a real dead body. We're

trying a scientific experiment.

Can I bring back somebody from the other
side? As long as we're going to treat

them with respect. That's the main
thing. Of course.

This is respecting the dead and
appreciating and valuing life and

understanding by looking at death in the
face.

how beautiful life is and how we should
all appreciate it and how we all would

love to be able to have one more moment.
I'd love to have one more moment with

my father. I'd love to have one more
moment with my uncle or my grandparents.

never even met my grandfather.

And so this is all about having the
opportunity to respect the dead, but

also value and appreciate life. Life is
death without change.

And that change is what I'm interested
in. This isn't the tough one, man. It's

not like usual stuff. No, this is not
magic, dude. This is the real, you know,

it's the real.

We'll do it.

Welcome,

ladies and gentlemen. This demonstration
is an exercise in what is possible.

I'm really not. I'm kind of at a loss of
what there is for me to do.

It's not your typical illusion.

There's nothing really fabricated or
anything like that. I mean, we've got to

create an atmosphere where people truly
believe. And I'm talking about

professionals believe that a dead body
is coming to life.

This is crazy. You're going to love
this. You know Mark?

I know. Hey. I have a crazy idea. I was
just telling Doug, and I wanted to show

you. Give me your honest opinion. Okay,
for sure. Stand over here for a second,

all right? Now, look, Mark is just an
ordinary kid, right?

Nothing unusual about him.

Okay.

Just a board.

Nothing unusual about the board. Okay.
I'm going to take it, place it just like

this.

Now watch.

Now! Whoa.

That looks great.

Completely nothing.

Headless, right?

Now this is the hard part. The hard part
is actually getting his head to come

back. Now! Right there. You see that?

Since I was a kid, I've always focused
on keeping my magic simple, big, and

powerful. This next reveal is exactly
that.

But check it out.

Place this on his shoulders like this.

And watch.

Now! Boom.

Gone. Check it out. That's great.

Isn't that crazy?

Isn't that great?

And then you just pop it back up there.

Blitz his head up.

Bam. Whoa.

I mean, it's a physical perspective
illusion.

All right, guys. Thanks so much, man.
I'll see you, man. Take care. That was

cool. That was cool.

That looked great. It looks like they
have those horsemen.

Hello. How you doing?

We knew at the beginning the two big X
factors were finding a location and

finding a dead body. This is kind of
funny for me. I guess this is something

for me that I've been, you know, I'm
trying to locate a cadaver. Is there any

way we can?

Just a moment. I'll text her. Okay.

Thank you. I appreciate that.

You can just imagine how difficult this
is. I mean, they don't hear this kind of

request every day.

You're still my bad chick, too.

I'm just glad it's him out there and not
me.

Thank you. Thank you.

Yeah, how you doing? My name is Spiro.
I'm with Criss Angel Productions.

And Criss Angel is doing a major
demonstration.

It's huge.

And I need to locate a cadaver for him.

Is there any way you can help us out
with that?

You know, this is an area where families
of the decedent come. So if we could

remove it. Sure.

Absolutely. Yeah, absolutely.

Absolutely. Absolutely.

I apologize, guys. Kill the camera.

I tried something

I want to do.

Who can I try it with?

Do you believe in the voodoo shit?

I'm not really, but kind of saw it. I'm
not sure.

All right.

I want you to turn around.

Don't face me. Face your back to me.
Perfect.

I need to rub your skin for a second,
all right? You're not going to hurt.

I'm going to rub. Okay.

Do you feel this?

Yes! Yes!

Yes, I do! Yes!

Watch your head.

Take that pin. You can put it anywhere
you like.

Face it. Whatever you want. I want you
to poke it, okay?

Stand tall and you can poke it wherever
you want.

You too. Where'd you poke it?

Oh, my God.

Is it real? Yes.

It's real.

If you feel something, I want you to let
me know, okay?

Okay.

Just wait, no, come here, see this, I
want you to see.

Oh my God.

Hold on, I'll tell you.

Just, just one more time, do it again.

Spiro's out there trying to find a dead
body, and it's becoming very difficult,

a lot more difficult than we thought.

I'm Spiro with Crisp Angel Productions.
I'm the location manager.

I spoke with you about a week ago or so,
and my request is a little out of the

ordinary.

Crisp is doing a major demonstration
that's going to require a cadaver.

He wants to bring the cadaver back from
the dead.

And I couldn't tell you this over the
phone. I don't think that would have

I don't think you would have fulfilled
my request in terms of meeting with you.

But I was thinking, can you provide us
with a cadaver?

Would that be possible at all?

You know, we're very respectful of our
family's privacy.

We don't get involved in anything of
that nature.

However, there are other medical
institutes here in Las Vegas where

sometimes donate their loved ones'
remains.

Okay. That would be really helpful. Can
you put me in touch with the right

people?

Great. Appreciate that. Thank you so
much.

Coming up.

This is where all of us will end up.

What is this, a vampire book?

Yes. Has anybody read this yet? Are you
buying that? No, it's not for me. This

is for my sister. It's her birthday.

Well, I want to give you something that
when she looks at this book, she'll

remember the story you tell her about
how you got the book.

Okay. What's your name?

Eli. Eli. Have we ever met before,
honestly?

No. I want you to go through the book. I
want you to stop at any page you'd

like. Do you have a page? I want you to
rip out either page out of the book.

Good.

I'll put the book right over here.

I want you to look at all the words on
the page.

And what you're going to do for me right
now, Eli, is I want you to go through

and scan through the different words.
And I want you to pull a letter from

whatever word you want and create a new
word. You can use both sides. It's

whatever you want, man.

All right. I got one. Yeah.

Okay. This is what I want you to do.

I want you to turn around. We're going
to go back to back, okay? I'm going to

take the page from your book, and it's
about vampires.

Right.

Let me see what we're going to do.

I want you to turn for me just like
this, back to back. I'm going to reach

pocket over here, and I'm going to grab
a lighter out. And check it out. I'm

going to light this up just like this. I
want you

to

let that word that you formed, that new
word, I want you to let it burn.

In your mind. Just let it burn in your
mind.

Not a lot.

You're burning it in your mind, right?
It's burning.

Turn to me. What is the word you're
thinking of?

Crop.

No way. You see it's burned in my
stomach.

Are you kidding me?

Now a vampire cannot see the

reflection.

Can he see a reflection?

No way.

That's... Oh, my goodness.

This is nuts. This is nuts.

That was unreal.

That was just crazy. Out of this world.
Turns around, has it on his freaking

stomach. I turn around, look in the
mirror, and there's a mark on my

and I'm still shaking a little bit. That
was just unreal. I don't even know how

that happened.

Sign that book for him, okay?

And I'll have somebody pay for it up
front.

The very best of yourself.

I want

to explore, is it possible

to reunite A cadaver with life just for
one more breath?

Well, medically, that's not possible.

I've read about people that have drowned
being able to be brought back.

Those are very rare, and it's not
medically explainable. It kind of goes

the paranormal and away from medicine
when it's completely unexpected.

Well, one of the things that we're going
to do is we're going to bring in

paranormal experts to witness this
demonstration.

What would you need as a medical
professional, as a surgeon, the best in

the world?

What would you need to prove that?

To prove that, you would have to have
some signs of life. Those would include

respiration.

You'd want to have a pulse, a heartbeat
or an EKG that demonstrated heart

rhythm.

Those would be signs of life.

Would you be open -minded to come?

and lend your expertise, your
credibility to the demonstration I'd

attempt and let the public know whether
or not what is seen is real

or not real. Would you do that? Sure, I
would do that. This is exactly what we

need. Somebody that has the credentials
and the qualifications to verify this

demonstration.

Houdini spent more than half of his life
debunking spiritualists, psychics, and

supernaturalists. I think it's kind of
poetic that I'm going to hit the streets

and perform one of his classic routines
in my own twisted way.

This could come in handy. This is
something that I want to show you.

something with it.

I'm going to try to show you something
with it. And look at that. We have

thread. An obvious choice to go with the
needle.

That could be this.

Can you open that up for me?

First time in Vegas, so we're making
Vegas version t -shirts. So we went and

some stuff to make it.

And we were just walking down Fremont
Street, checking everything out. And he

asked for my bag, took some needles and
thread out, and swallowed them.

When he swallowed those needles, I think
he was about to choke himself.

Then when he did choke himself, he got
to...

I thought he was going to go on
convulsions or something. Then next

know, he got some vibrate.

I'm cool.

I want to know, do we locate a body yet?

Really?

No,

that's

no problem.

But he's willing to do it? He's ready to
go.

That's unbelievable, dude.

So we got a body and we got a location?

We got both.

It's ready to go. It's a done deal.

Coming up.

We're going to try to reunite that body
with its soul.

I'd like to introduce you to Robert
Michael.

For tonight's demonstration, Chris is
attempting to raise someone from the

We've already got our body, we've got
our doctors and our nurses, and

Group is going to be a great addition.

I've investigated 75 plus sites, so I've
seen and heard it all.

But we still need a group of spectators,
and we would like to have some skeptics

and believers in the crowd. It should be
interesting.

You guys are checking in, so you should
have, let's ask them.

Hey, excuse me, guys. My name's Jesse.
This is Spiro. We work for Criss Angel.

And we're going to be doing, it's like
an experiment tonight.

And we need to find people that are
brave enough to come with us.

Do you guys believe in the paranormal or
ghosts?

Are you keeping around the seas?

Like in the same room.

Dead people?

Tonight, we're actually going to take
you to a secret location.

We've got our audience.

Now, we just need to get them to the
secret location.

We need everybody to put their
blindfolds on. Can't know where we're

Tonight, I'll attempt to prove to
strangers and myself that death is not

I brought them to this funeral home to
attempt to transfer life from a witness

to a dead body.

Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the
cremation area.

I want the audience to understand the
gravity of this demonstration.

I want them to see and smell death.

This facility is utilized for embalming,

for burials.

And from medical science, the bones and
remains will be gathered and brought

over here, where they'll take all of the
bones, dentures and teeth,

shoulders, plates, screws into this
device, which creates the ashes

in the urn, a process that we know as
cremation.

I'd like to show you some of the 81
bodies that are here right now.

Come with me.

What you're looking at are freezers,
freezers that are keeping the deceased

until they enter the next phase.

I'd like you to come over here.

These are loved ones.

If you look up top, you can actually see
a hand and a leg.

This is where all of us will end up.

We're going to enter our final phase of
utilizing one of the bodies.

We're going to try to reunite that body
with its soul.

Now, come with me.

Step right over here, please.

Just move a little to your left.
Welcome, ladies and gentlemen.

Take a seat.

This demonstration.

is an exercise in what is possible we
have not met prior to meeting

you in here isn't that true folks you're
probably students nursing students okay

perfect and uh i think we have some
paranormal investigators here you and

you i want you to visualize letters of a
name

From my right to my left, as if you were
reading, do you see a name?

Yes. What name do you see?

Michael.

Do you know this man?

I don't think so.

His last name is Michael.

Do you see a first name?

What name do you see?

Paul. His name is Robert Michael.

Now, what I'm going to ask you all to do
right now, you had your choice to sit

wherever you wanted. Isn't that true?

I want you to reach under your seat
right now.

And if you have a folder taped under
there, I want you to pull it out for me

right now. Whoever has it, you have it
over there.

Okay.

Would you just open up the folder and
read?

I believe it's the death certificate
there. Yes.

Robert Michael.

Hold it, please.

Now, before I show you, Robert, I want
to introduce you a very distinguished

surgeon, Dr. Derek Duke.

He's from the SBI Institute, and you've
done how many surgeries in your career?

Over the last 20 years, about 10 ,000
operations.

10 ,000? Yes.

I want you to verify this indeed is a
death certificate.

Yes, he appears to have died a couple
weeks ago, and it's signed by a

Okay.

We're going to be doing a lot of
provocative experiments in just a couple

moments, folks.

If you're not comfortable being here, or
you feel uneasy, now is the time to

exit.

I just don't want to take part in any
kind of sacrilegious...

event like that. It's just not something
I feel comfortable with. It's well with

me. So I wanted to leave.

Anybody else?

I'd like to introduce you to Robert
Mike.

At the beginning of time, man has
questioned whether there's life after

I'm here to challenge that theory.

I've invited an audience of skeptics,
paranormal experts, and medical experts

to prove beyond any doubt that what
they're about to experience is real.

This gentleman, he's in his early 50s.

You can tell that he's had an autopsy
performed, obviously a deceased

individual. Anybody here believe in
fate?

You all reached under your seat and just
one of you had the folder.

You have it over there.

Would you mind coming up here, please?

Thank you. Right here, please.

In order to give life, you have to take
a life just for a moment.

Would you be willing to try and
experiment if I give you my word that...

The way that you came here tonight will
be exactly how you will leave.

I ask you just to lay down on the gurney
here.

Okay. Just relax yourself. Just become
at peace.

investigators, which I believe both of
you are, and would you be kind enough to

tell us a little bit about what you do?
We investigate paranormal activity that

people may be having inside of their
homes, places of business.

The devices we brought today, a K2 EMF
meter, it reads the electromagnetic

field. Will it be very apparent in those
meters that something has manifested

itself in our presence?

Okay, would you turn on your devices,
please?

And may I take them, and I just would
like to arrest them.

Mr. Michael.

Okay.

Completely allow yourself to be relaxed.

You're listening to my voice, and you
can speak, but you're completely

yourself.

Feel all of your body weight.

Escape your body so you have no more
sense of physicality.

The body won't function. Even if you try
to raise your hand right now, you will

not be able to raise your hand. Raise
your hand right now. You can't raise

hand. Try to raise your left foot. You
will not be able to raise your left foot

as if rigor mortis is setting in.

But yet you can still speak to me. Am I
right? Yes.

Yes.

Did you feel something?

Yeah.

And what

did you feel now?

It happened.

Where are you right now? Where are you?

At a park.

And it's sunny, isn't it?

And you see a bench in the distance,
don't you?

And there's a tree, a big oak tree
behind it. It's blowing in the wind

now. Do you feel that?

And you see a man sitting on the bench,
yes?

I want you to approach that man and you
will discover that man is Robert

Michaels.

I would like to hear that.

You're going to take the glove and place
it onto your right hand, please.

You're going to take this glass, and I
want you to tap the glass in a couple of

moments in the rhythm of her pulse. As
you feel her pulse, I want you to tap

glass. Put your hand on his neck.

If you feel a pulse begin, I want you to
just interrupt me and tell me. Okay.

What? Turn on the EKG.

a pulse.

Talk to him.

It's inexplicable. I saw the chest rise
and I have no explanation.

And your meters, did they indicate
anything?

Yes, there was a definite break in the
electromagnetic field. There was some

kind of a spirit presence.

What did you feel?

The air getting sucked out of the room.

I noticed tears in your eyes. Tell me
what that's about.

Uh, I...

I've seen anything like it.

I notice that you're holding him.

Love is so strong, isn't it?

It's what we all need to function.

What did you feel?

I felt out of breath.

I felt this way.

It's very sweaty.

Like my heart was slowing down.

Julia, how are you?

Tell us about your experience.

I felt like glued.

To the table. It was almost like your
body was dead.

Yeah. People might be upset or
disappointed in me going down this road.

But for me, I think of life as a gift.

Every moment that we all have is a gift.

It's very easy to take that for granted
and get caught up in the small things.

I thank you so much.

And God bless you all.
