This is the historic city of Edinburgh.

Scotland's capital for more than 600 years,

with cobbled streets,

steep hills and ancient castles that dominate the skyline.

Any city so old

You must have some interesting stories, including some related to magic.

I am here to search for magic

this city...

Take corner.

Break it. Hold this.

Look at corner. So.

- Oh my! - What the?

Match.

And to investigate the death of one of the most famous

IN MEMORY OF GREAT LAFAYETTE

Light the fuse.

Before face fate

in their attempt to fire.

On May 9, 1911,

a magician called The Great Lafayette went on stage in Edinburgh

the most famous illusion of extinction.

But a light went off in the middle act

and set fire to the stage.

The whole building was on fire and most of the artists have died.

Authorities recovered the burned body of magician.

Just... not him.

Great Lafayette... gone.

THEATER FESTIVAL

The last and fatal number of Lafayette

It held at the Imperial Theater Vaudeville

which is right here. Obviously, there's imperial

but it's a theater that continued to exist until today.

I think if I want to give end

the mystery of that night should start here.

I want to know exactly what happened

in deadly fire

and where he went Lafayette.

- Hello, Catherine. - Hi.

- How are you? - Good.

Current release coordinator Theater Festival

He agreed to do a tour.

I'm interested Lafayette.

There were about 3,000 people in the building.

The fire started.

The public has realized that this is real,

although initially they believed otherwise.

Curtain fell, then a flash fire.

The fire swept scene?

Fully.

The audience was evacuated.

Only those on stage were in danger of death.

Even in death, Lafayette fooled people.

Body found of belonging

It was the lookalike.

Lafayette real change places in the middle act

and found under the stage after a few days,

where he had been killed by fire.

LAST NUMBER

He had to perform one last trick of disappearing.

IN MEMORY OF GREAT LAFAYETTE, DEAD

With the body in 1911.

Come here. I have something better for you.

Catherine convinced her to let me do a magic number

just above the place where it was found Lafayette.

In 1911

the most famous magician of the time was called "The Great Lafayette '.

Play in a theater located right on this place.

The scene on fire

11 people, including the Grand Lafayette

died.

They died right here.

Lord!

Let me show you something.

It's a very sad event.

Impressive fire is not necessarily heat or flame,

but that smoke appeared,

oxygen is burned and lives...

is off.

So. Very slow.

Malaika, take this.

You rekindle the candle.

I leave here.

I want to ask

try to make a connection with the flame,

in fact, by flame...

Grand Lafayette.

Lean and catch corner. Hold it in your hand.

Take the other corner.

And focus on the flame.

Doing so,

You say "Lafayette, are you there?"

Lafayette, are you there?

It seems not.

Try with his real name, Sigmund.

Please say "Sigmund, are you there?"

Sigmund, are you there? Oh God.

Look below. Nothing.

- Nothing. - God!

Malaika come, seize and make

anything that does not support mass.

- Nothing. - That's right, nothing!

And below. Underfoot nothing.

- Nothing. - Nothing.

I get scared.

What crazy!

Turn to your right. Rotate table.

360 degrees.

So. Leave your corners down. Let them go.

And blew out the candle.

See? Starts to leave.

It is placed.

Is that so.

- Crazy. - Super!

Now I want you all

to stretch hands so

and invoke the Great Lafayette last time.

Focus at the table and invoke it.

Lord!

- Amazing. - There's nothing there.

- Magic. - spirits there.

- Thank you. - We too.

Lord!

There was nothing there, he came out of nowhere.

Normally I try to recreate a magic number,

but if all I have is Lafayette's fire and disappeared.

So, I want to inspire even his life.

Born Sigmund Neuberger died as one of the greatest magicians.

This is the stone of the tomb. Free...

names or other personal items.

It's like there would still be a poster

from one of his shows: "Great Lafayette '.

Obviously he did not leave never

magician mask to fall, even after death.

But Lafayette is not alone in stone tomb.

He was buried with the love of his life, his dog.

Lafayette is buried right here with "Beautiful" dog offered

Harry Houdini, who quickly became the most popular company in the world.

He was treated like a princess, get five-star meals and have

a collar encrusted with gold and diamonds.

When Lafayette toured here in 1911, the dog died suddenly

what broke his heart. Took care to be buried in a cemetery human

very unusual

but he said he will not live long

and he would soon follow.

And so it was. After two weeks died burned.

Are together here, and sleep next to each other since.

While I am here, I wanted to visit a dog and famous.

To this end, I need it.

When you visit the tomb of Greyfriars Bobby,

I have to go in but a stick.

Greyfriars Bobby died at age 16

Edinburgh Anyone can tell the story of Bobby.

It even has a statue, about my family somehow.

This is Bobby. According to legend,

Bobby belonged to a night watchman named John Gray.

When John Gray died, Bobby came to stand at his grave every day

for 14 years. When he died, he was buried in the same place.

Another touching story about a man and his dog

and the reason they know it

It is the great-great-great-great-my strămătuşa

who heard the story of 150 years ago,

is arranged to build a statue of Bobby.

The temperature decreases,

so let inside to raise a glass in honor of his best friend.

Ladies,

when someone dies, often whiskey

flowing, so I thought to show you something using whiskey

in honor Beautiful dog Lafayette.

I want to use these six bottles.

I come up with all sorts of magical ideas.

Using alcohol around,

I want to compose a message. Or better you create one

glass. First, think about who you want to share.

Choose someone in mind. Friend, relative,

Then think about the message.

Winter steps up its grip on the city,

and I have yet to find

Who was really Lafayette.

What better way to get

in his head than to do a trick

inspired by one of his famous illusions?

FABHATRIX

It's an old trick.

He was a magician here in Edinburgh

called Lafayette, famous for this trick.

He needed a nurse magical as Violet.

Special assistance. And a cage.

Girl in cage

and, in accordance with the story,

it turns into a lion.

Do you want to try?

- You wanna cuddle? - it's so cute!

More friendly than a lion.

Super!

It's yours, you can take it. Kidding.

Only in Canada.

How cute!

Looking for an unusual twist my final act.

I think the dark past of Edinburgh

It can provide inspiration.

That's shaft Witches epicenter horrible

witch-hunt that took place all over Scotland

in the XVI and XVII.

More than 300 women were burned alive here

and if you were present, you would have seen a woman

tied to a pole, taking fire and screaming while burning to death.

There were people who roamed the cities,

hunting which claimed to be witches.

It was believed that if you made a pact with the devil,

he let you make and that you sign witch.

So witch hunt

they sought, often stripped people

and trying to find their bodies evidence

of that sign. I thought that today, together, to go to our little...

witch hunt. Agree?

- Yes. - So...

For this we have people, but coins.

I will put on the table.

Take your drinks here.

Put them here

Now we can focus on our hunt.

They all look the same.

Just to go back on the same side.

Scatter them

and return all currencies

face-down.

Now they are all identical.

Let's say that this is a city. Lily, you're

the hunting witches, right?

- Good? - Yes.

First, Lucy, designate a witch.

Select the currency you want.

Start. An up a bit? I ask you

witch put the currency sign, that we may know

because of all these people innocent

Scottish imaginary in our city, that's the witch.

Write face currency

Lucy chose witch mark.

Now we need a name.

I gave him a name. Do I tell him?

- Yes, tell me it. - Margaret.

Now must we lost.

Put it face down and mix them.

Lily, look elsewhere

- for a moment. - Sure.

Let the devil to work.

Perfect. Now look

this city and start hunting.

Use pint to take coins

and remove all innocent.

Get rid of all these people.

Our hunter makes his round.

Save coins.

Keep going.

These remain new. Align them.

These are your suspects.

Take six leaves only three.

Three suspects.

I was three.

Grab judgment

over two currencies.

Currency that's... innocent.

On this we leave here.

We have two.

Very simple. Push one for me.

That's innocent.

Put your finger on it. Perfect. As before, take.

Three, I got one.

You feel that's the witch?

Gives.

Slowly return suspect.

Lord!

What do you think?

- It's not possible. - It's crazy.

He certainly mine, because it's Maggie.

E Margaret.

The choice of name

Any particular reason?

So it came.

- Yes? - Yes.

Let's see.

Candle hold...

And you, keep an eye on napkin.

Think of Margaret.

Take the cup

and I want to crumples Margaret and throw

fire, executing it.

- Amazing! - Thank you.

All good.

THEATER ROYAL BAR

I decided on the final number. It will be a test of fire.

Something that combines death scene Lafayette

the dark history of Edinburgh.

But it started to snow very hard

and all my plans were ruined...

or not.

A warning was issued today a code red

wide area, and problems with loss of power.

The risk is high.

The weather is growing worse and the temperature

decreases rapidly. For the first time

in Scottish history, code red blocked nationwide.

Will not work here.

We need a warmer place.

Three weeks later

SIMI VALLEY, CALIFORNIA

I had to abandon achieve final number in Edinburgh

so I came in his adopted country of Lafayette,

United States of America,

homage to my great magician burner.

Ladies and gentlemen, good evening.

You can leave candles.

It says that you come to my funeral.

Do not say that!

Approximately 100 years ago, there was a man

which was presented to the world as "The Great Lafayette '.

Great Lafayette,

in its time, it was perhaps the most famous illusionist in the world.

His life ended when, in a horrible accident,

scene caught fire and burned him alive.

As part of my trip, I went to Edinburgh

and I realized that the city has its own dark history of executions by fire.

Hundreds of people were burned at the stake,

accused of witchcraft.

Tonight,

I want to give a tribute not only to Lafayette

and hundreds of souls burned at the stake.

It is my own attempt to fire.

Oh my God!

In a moment,

I have wrists and neck related to this post.

After that, I will ask someone to light the fuse.

A spiral light a fire.

The flames will reach me within 60 seconds.

I long to open the locks and escape.

And if I can not get...

You'll see...

burning to death.

I want to show links.

Two chains and two padlocks.

Take, please lock.

And chain.

The other lock

and chain.

Look at them. You can close the locks,

I want to be sure there's no trick.

Nothing gives chains are very strong, right?

And very heavy.

All I have

It is one...

pin

to open locks.

Give them back.

Two chains and locks.

And just a needle.

But there is a necessary element. One of you must...

to light the wick.

Man with outstretched hand. You are too eager.

At this time I can not trust anyone offering.

So... Mrs.

- What is your name? - Sarah.

- Do you consider yourself trustworthy? - Yes.

When the time comes, you receive a torch

that a touch of gunpowder.

Agree?

If you promise to release.

- I will do my best. - Good.

- Are you ready? - Yes!

Start.

Y Srh.

- God... - Thanks.

Oh my God!

Oh, no!

Another element.

Bring gasoline.

- God! - Not!

- Why not.

I can not...

That's suicide.

Not.

- Brother! - Horrible.

Are you ready?

Gives.

Sarah, light the fuse.

Lord!

Out of there!

Run!

- Run! - God!

You must exit.

Come on.

Get out!

Quick!

Come out!

- Come on, man! - Come on!

Hurry up!

Run!

Where is it?

Lord!

Where is it?

Of...

- It disappeared. - Not.

- Really? - Not.

- Oh my God! - Where is it?

Not! What's going on?

How?

Where?

What's going on?

What?

Gives!

Gives.

- Where is it? - It's good?

Good, eh?

Pure madness.

To see a man taking fire, then a cloud of smoke and then nothing,

- is beyond me. - I can not even think...

as out.

- Nothing, just... - He's gone.

What's going on?

Where is it?

As a ghost,

He disappeared into thin air.

Where is it?

- Yes, I know, please. - You know?

Please tell us.
