Best Magicians on Got Talent 2024..SO FAR!

Thank you so much. You did it very uniquely. The mixture of magic and your performance made it so much more special. You're the best quick change artist we have ever seen. Yes, I agree. Thank you. Professionally it was entertaining. We loved you tonight. I wanna see more. Gracias. Sometimes when we have these acts, you have a lady who does the quick change and then normally an annoying guy who does nothing. And the fact that you were on your own and did it for me made it just so much better. It was so slick and you got two minutes to cram that in. That was amazing. Thank you so much. Well obviously yes. Hello, what's your name? Jack Rhodes. And is what you're going to do today how you make a living or do you have a normal job? I did have a normal job. Which was? Which was a nuclear engineer. Which makes me sound cleverer than I am to be fair. And how did your parents feel when you gave up being a nuclear scientist for being a magician? They weren't impressed. My dad used to call me a part-time wizard. Sorry, full-time moron. He's not my biggest fan. Do you think you could win? I think at the end of this you'll either be going, wow, how did he do that? Or you'll be going, wow, why did he do that? At least he's honest. So you could see yourself in Vegas? Yeah, that would be the dream. I think the go-to guys would be Penn and Teller doing a show like that. Not going to ask any more questions. Good luck. I'm pretty surprised you don't recognize me. I might have been on before. When? You didn't see me. Do you remember the invisible magician, the phantom? Yes. That might have been me. No. You can't see me. You'll never see me again. Oh my God. I'm standing right in front of you. You didn't see me at the time because I'm like a gangly ninja. I can move undetected. I'll show you what I mean using these blank cards. Now Simon, I'm going to have you write down a word for me. What's the first word that comes to mind when you look at me? Remember, it's a family show. Yeah. What have we got? Cucumber. I don't know why. It's the tall, skinny cucumber. Simon, hold out your left hand for me. Put your right hand on top. We're going to sandwich it. Perfect. Cucumber in between. Make sure I don't get to it. I get to get my own back now. When I look at you, the first word that comes to mind is minted. Minted. Bruno, hold out your left hand for me. Perfect. Minted. Put your right hand on top. Make sure no one can get to it. Two different words. Cucumber. Minted. I'm now going to move undetected. That's it. Job done. Simon, show everyone what's now written on your card. No. Bruno, show them. Cucumber. I can't believe this is not real. What the hell? Here's the thing. I'm going to show you exactly what just happened. Simon, cucumber. Put your right hand on top. Sandwich it. Bruno, exact same thing. Minted. Right hand on top. Sandwich it. Here's what you didn't see the first time. I'm going to do action replay, but this time in slow motion to show you how I move undetected. It's like an out-of-body experience. Here we go. What the hell is going on? Job done. Undetected. I'm lying. Really, I'm lying. Simon, show them. The whole time at the start of this, I showed you a video claiming the phantom was me, allegedly, but I posted another video, a prediction, called, What Simon Will Think Of. Uploaded six months ago. You were only ever going to think of one word. Cucumber. Ladies and gentlemen, I've been Jack Rhodes. Thank you very much. What's that about? Thank you. Bruno, it's been so good being here. Thank you. Alicia, it's been amazing. Thank you. Simon, it's been an absolute pleasure. Cheers, guys. Thank you. I'm so confused. Is that the end? Are you done? Yeah, we're doing the judging bit now. We're just slightly distracted by the box and the scuba diver. Scuba diver? The phantom. I loved the way you presented that. I've never seen it done like that before. That felt really fresh. You're very cool with a sick sense of humor as well, which I love. Like a cucumber. See? I cannot get out of my mind because I held this card. How you do it. I'm gobsmacked. That's all I can say. You've got great showmanship. It was funny. You kept us on our toes. And I can't wait to see what you might get up to next. I think you're really smart. And I think to be a great magician, you've got to be really smart. You have massive potential. I genuinely mean that. Something really good about you. Cheers. Thank you. The only thing lacking for me was the ending didn't feel big enough. I liked it because the end was big. Let's take a vote. Bruno. Yes, yes. Alicia. I say yes. Don't think we've ever seen anything like that. 100% yes. Simon. That's as good as you're gonna get. You got four yeses. Dad's got it wrong, I think. Oh, yes. Thank you. Thank you. Cheers. Wicked. Come on, Dad. That was amazing. Good performer. That was hilarious. I'm gonna show you how I did it. He's good, isn't he? Now you want to speak to him, don't you, Dad? The two dads here are very proud of you. Off you go into the world. Hello, hello, hello. Hello. What's your name? I'm Mark Clearview. What are you gonna do for us today? I'm gonna do magic like you've never seen it before. Oh. You know, we do get quite a few magicians on this stage. Yes. What makes you stand out? I'm the only one here. Okay. That's fair. How did you get into magic? I got into magic when I was three years old and the witch put the curse on me. And then my father decided to continue to help me. He built props for me. He drove me to my shows. And I wouldn't be here today without him. So on a serious note, thank you, Dad, for helping out. Is your dad no longer with us? Yeah, I lost my father to cancer last year, so I'm still kind of getting used to that being real. But if he was here today, it was one of his dreams to see me on a show like this. He is here. Thank you. Let's do it, baby. The stage is yours. Nothing in my hands. Nothing in my sleeves. And yet, magic. Magic. And as the eggs continue to appear at my fingertips, another egg. Another egg. Another egg. Another egg! Now that you have a bowl that's filled to the brim with eggs. I will not be doing any egg tricks. Or will I? Get it? What is this chicken? It's a whole chicken? Wow. To go. You're so weird. My name is Mark Clearview, obviously. I've been doing magic since I was six years old. But most six-year-olds would rather be firefighters and protect the public, and I was like, I'll be a magician and protect my virginity. The jokes are out of the way. It's time for the miracles. Howie, think of a word. Any word. You know what? Not something too long. A five-letter word. I'm not that good, clearly. Yeah, send it to me. Five-letter word. Send it to me. Don't say it out loud. Howie, out of curiosity, is the first letter of your word an H? Yes. Wow. Don't clap. It wastes time. K. K is not in your word. I wasn't finished with my sentence. K is not in your word, correct? Correct. Brilliant. How does he do it? L? There's no L. I'm losing. Let's try a card trick. Those are easier. An ordinary deck of cards. You know what? Think of a card. Any card. It's time for the magic. One card in my hand. I'm locked in, Lily. Okay. What card are you thinking of? Five of hearts. The five of hearts? Yes. I lost again, okay? Lost again. Look. We've got a long way to go. Oh, God. Oh, no. Hit it. Here we go. This is a rollercoaster. I know. I fell. The end. What's going on? Are you all right? Yeah. I fell. What was the card that you said? Five of hearts. There's a chicken there. Yes. No. Yeah. Can you open it? Open the chicken? Open that chicken. There's a card in the chicken. Could you get the card? Howie, spread your legs. Stick your finger in there. Get it. Can you unfold that and see if that's the five of hearts? Oh, my goodness. What in the actual... Wait. Okay, wait. Okay, yes, yes. I'm great, but wait. You thought of a five-letter word. I did. What is your word? Would you tell all of us? I thought of Howie. I don't know why that came to me, but it did. That's amazing because... I mean, it's kind of amazing because I have an... I have an owie here, so... Actually... I think it's bruising, actually. Whoa. You're on that man. I know. That's Howie's word. I've been Mark Clearview my whole life, and you know what? Cheers. To Dad! Thank you very much! It's amazing. That was, like, the best two hours of my life. You're equal parts good at magic as you are being funny. I can't believe you got me to put my hand in a chicken. Like, that was incredible. Thank you. You have a natural gift. Everything that you have delivered to us today shows a star, and that's what it's all about in this million-dollar season right here on Canada's Got Talent. Thank you. You have so much to offer. I agree. And you're witty and funny. I think you're a star. I really believe tonight your father is just glowing with pride. Me too. Should we start the voting, Howie? Oh, there's no question about this yes. It's a thousand yeses from me. I cannot wait to see how much weirder you get. Yes! Thank you. It's a yes from me. And last but not least, it's a yes! Four yeses! Thank you. Oh! Are you sure? Oh! I can't believe it. Oh! Yeah. Hi. Yes. Whatever happens, don't move. It's yours. Now, Curry really wants each one of you to think about something you're scared about. Write it down, and then pass all the papers to Simon. And, Curry, don't look. Please give them to Simon, and he will mix them up. Right. I've got it. Thank you. Simon, think about your fear, and then look... Wow, Simon, Simon. Think less about your fear, a bit less. Okay, I'm not thinking. I'm not thinking. I think the chicken's scared of Simon. Curry can feel the fear. Simon, please. Think about your fear, not too strongly, and then look into her eyes. Okay. Thank you. Curry, she cannot talk, so she will show us. If, Simon, you thought about dark oceans, a fear for flying, a fear for drawing, or a fear for giant spiders. Curry, what is Simon thinking about? She's pointing to giant spiders. Was this your fear, Simon? Yes. Thank you. It really was. Curry got it right. Now, Sophia, can you please channel all the energy of your fear towards your hands, and then pet her gently. Curry likes you to make it even harder. You can turn over the papers and mix them up as much as you like. She picked on one paper. What was your fear? Dark oceans. Oh, my goodness. What? Curry does not need to read any more minds, because Howie... Why? She's been thinking about you all day long. She knew which fear you would pick before you even thought about it. Howie, can you please open up her egg? Open an egg? What's it say? It says drowning. Was this your fear? This was my fear. Check my card. Yes. Thank you. Thank you so much. That's amazing. Curry. This chicken needs to be famous. I loved how the chicken knew everything except mine, but I loved it. She has something special for you in the next round. She does? Yes. Sophia. I love the chicken. Simon. Well, I like you, and I think what you did was very original. I mean, that was magic. Impossible to do what you just did without having magic powers. Seriously. I agree with what everybody's saying, and I think young and old alike will like this, so let's vote. I'll give you your first yes. To the chicken and you. Make that four yeses. Hype me up. Hype me up. How's everyone doing? All right, cool. Let's go. Today, I'm going to be creating a magical moment in time. I cannot do that alone. I'm going to need the help of the four lovely judges. Bruno. Yeah? Can I borrow your watch, please? Okay, here we go. Show everyone. Hold it up. Hold it up high. Can you all see the watch? Oh, that's a nice piece, isn't it? He's doing well for himself. What I'm going to do, I'm going to put your watch in my handkerchief. Can you feel it? Just make sure it's still there. Yeah, it's still there. Rule number one. Never trust a magician. Poof. In this bag, I've got 50 photos of Simon Cowell's memories. To show you they're all different, I need you to select a random photo. Bruno, can you close your eyes and take a random photo? Take one, just one, reveal it, and show Simon. I remember that. That is the premiere of the One Direction movie. I've got a great tan. Okay. Oh, look at that. It's you and King Charles. Looks like I'm being told off. Now, Simon, we're going to do this slightly different. With your right hand, I need you to pick a random photo. Close your eyes. Pick a random one, any one you want. Do not open it. Same thing with your left hand. You can open your eyes. Hang on to that and follow me. I'm kind of scared. What's going to happen? What about my watch? Now, Simon, about a month ago, I had a dream about two memories. In fact, it wasn't my memories. These were, in fact, your memories. The first dream that I had was a memory about unconditional love. There was a lot of barking by dogs and it woke me up. Do me a favour, Simon. The first photo with your right hand, can you please reveal that photo, please? Show the camera, please. It's Pebbles. It's the new one. After my dream, I had this made. It's a custom dog tag with the name Pebbles. Have a look. Are you serious? What? That's unbelievable. So now, the second dream I had, you made a purchase for £10,500 on the 21st of March, 1994. I want to show you something, Simon. Do you recognise this? Yeah. That's a TR6. Oh, my gosh. Have a look at your photo. What? That's my car. I remember that car. That was one of my favourite ever cars. Now, Simon, I am about to reunite you with someone special. Simon Cowell, let me reunite you with the blast from apart. The car. Simon, this is your exact car from 30 years ago. Exactly the same one. It's not a duplicate. Come round here, Simon. Come round. Do me a favour. Go inside the glovebox. There's a gift inside there, Simon. Do not open it, but take it out. Let's go back and stay. Give it up for Simon one more time. This is, like, unreal. Smashed it. Simon, give that box to Bruno, but do not open it. Bruno, one more time for Simon Cowell and the judges. Bruno, open that box. Oh, my God. How did you do? Bruno, watch, guys. Thank you, guys. Glad you enjoyed. Magician tricks, you guys. I was very engaged in the storytelling, you know? I was totally taken by your magic. Thank you. What I think I loved most about it all was that it was proper magic, but it was big magic. That time of my life, I was literally broke. I borrowed some money and I bought that car, and it was, like, a turning point in my life. Just seeing how much, obviously, this means to you, I had no idea what was going to happen next. Were you really nervous at the beginning? Because I felt it. Slightly. You've got to start believing in yourself more, because you're so talented. If this is an indication of what you can do going forward, I really believe great things are going to happen. Take a vote. Bruno. Oh, definitely yes. Thank you. Nicely done. It's a yes from me. It's a yes from me. Thank you. Four million yeses. Yes, Trixie! Hello. Oh. Hello. Oh, there's a lot of people here. My God, I think I'll go home. Welcome to Canada's Got Talent. I have no idea what brought me here. I've got a... What question are you answering? I'm sorry? You're answering questions no one has asked you, sir. What is your name? Mark Lewis is my name. What are you going to do for us tonight? I'm going to do some card tricks. How old are you? I'm 79 years old. Are you having a good day? Pardon? Are you having a good day? Not really, no, but... Do you think that what you have for us today is worthy of a million dollars? What am I going to do with a million dollars at my age? I'll be dead. How bloody good is that? God almighty. If you win this... If I win a million dollars... And if you get a golden buzzer, $25,000 from CIBC. Oh, I don't mind that. I'll take the $25,000 right now. But you want to win the contest, right? There's more chance of being struck by lightning than that happening. I love it. Are you ready? I'm ready. Can I help you on that? You have people doing things on trapezes and going on fire and everything, and they're worried about me coming down a few bloody stairs. That's an act. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven. Amazing. All right. Don't get too excited. You haven't seen the card trick yet. Gentlemen there, have you ever met me before? You seem happy about that. When I snap my fingers, I'd like you to think of any card in the pack now. Do you have a card in your mind? Don't tell me. Got one in your mind? I have a card here in my hand. Out loud, what card are you thinking of? Ace of spades. The ace of spades. Ace of spades. You stunned me. That shot you all up for a minute, didn't it? All right, let's try this now. Would you help me, my dear? Would you take any card you like, but remember you have a free choice. Take any one you like. Show it to them. Don't let me see it. Show it to the audience. I'll take my glasses off so I can't see it by accident. All right, put the card back in the pack anywhere you want. Now the idea of the trick is, ladies and gentlemen, I'm going to make your card come to the top of the pack, okay? May I know your name? Lily. This card here should be your card. It might not be. I don't know, but we'll see. We all make mistakes. My mother made one. Let's try it. Was that your card? No. Take the eight with your thumb on top. Thumb on top. Push it in the middle anywhere you like. Hold on to the eight very tightly. The card above the eight should be your card. Was it this one? No. What was the name of your card? Six of diamonds. Turn that one over. No! What? Wow! I'm going to run the cards from one hand to the other like that. I'd like all four of you to call out stop any time you like, or use the card you stopped me at. Are you ready? Say stop quickly. Too slow. You've got to be quick. Say stop quickly. Too slow. You've got to be quick. Say stop quickly. I haven't started yet. I will slow down. You speed up. We'll meet in the middle. That's the best way to do it. Say stop any time you like. Have a look at that card. Short to them. Don't let me see it. Put the card back somewhere. That's very good. Will you give me five guesses, five chances to find your card? Say yes. If you say no, it's not much of a trick. This might be your card. It might be this one. It might be that one there. Two more guesses. It might be that one. It might be this one. I don't know. I think. I hope. I pray that one of these five cards is the chosen card. Tell me, was that the card? No. It doesn't matter. I've still got four cards left. It's probably one of these four. Was this the card? No. Third time's a charm, although I'm not that charming. Was it there? It is not. Is it either of those two cards? No. Just touch one of the five cards now. Keep your finger on it. I could not possibly have known beforehand which of the five you'd touch. Is that correct? Correct. Tell me the name of the card. Ace of Spades. I saw the same one you thought of. The Ace of Spades again. Coincidence. Turn that one over slowly. What have you got? There we are, ladies and gentlemen. The Ace of Spades. Thank you very much, everybody. Good luck. Bye-bye. Thank you very much. Here we are. Wait. Watch behind you. There we go. You good on this? Thank you, Harvey. Bye-bye. Cheerio. I'll start. I just think that you are not only magical, you are such a great, lovable character. For a guy that comes out and doesn't even know where he is, you are the sharpest person I have met so far this season. You're born to do magic and comedy. Thank you for coming. You're welcome. Thank you very much. Chris. Yeah, an absolute delight. I would like to take you home with me. Oh, that's very nice. The offers I get coming here. I was literally flabbergasted. That magic was so good, and I just loved your personality, and this is the type of talent that could possibly win a million dollars. Okay. Am I supposed to go now? No, no. Here's how it goes. I'm going to give you a yes. Thank you. You're welcome. Lily? I'm also going to give you a yes. That's two yeses. Trish? I'm going to give you your third yes. Cardi? And this is only for reference. I'm Cardinal, giving you a yeses! Two yeses. Okay. Bye-bye, everybody. Bye-bye. I don't know where I'm going. Oh, it's this way, is it? Oh, thank you very much. Howie's requesting a producer to the judges' desk, please. Thank you, Mark. He just sent that? Howie needs us to hold the set. So I'm going to have to be stuck in a holding. Something's happening here. Stand by. I'm just thinking, we just let them do like everybody, young and old. I'm down. Okay. Lindsay? Yeah? Are you still back there with our buddy? I am, yeah. Can we talk to Mark for one more second? But here we go. You can just go right on stage there. Mark Lewis! I want to ask you something. I've just been apprised of some stuff. You emailed our producers, didn't you? I did, yeah. And I'll just read a line. It said, uh, Am I going to have to be stuck in a holding room for hours with hundreds of eager contestants? I would regard this possibility with abject horror and you wouldn't see me near the place. Like, you're not happy to be here. I'm happy now. Do you love this guy? Okay. Lindsay, come here. Lindsay, come here for a minute. You want to give him $25,000? Well, Mark, as a group, let's put our hands together. Here's $25,000. Even that. $25,000! Do you understand what just happened? Mark Lewis, you are the group golden buzzer, which means you are going straight through to the next round. And you have just won $25,000! But this does mean for the semifinals, you will be in another holding room with eager talent. Holy mother of God. Let's just say thank you to CIBC. Thank you, CIBC. There you go. Thank you very much. One more time. Impressive. Impressive. This is a mix of quick change with straps. Impressive what Diego and Elena So, who are you? We are Diego and Elena, and we come from Madrid. How did you come up with this number? We are an artistic duo since 17 years ago. We started doing straps and suddenly we got in touch with a lot of magicians. We coincided with Sosy Victoria, Guinness, the quick change. And suddenly one day we were looking at the stage and we said this would be great. How is it done? I don't know, but I don't want to explain it. I just love it. Thank you. Magic. It's magic. What a surprise you got in these auditions. It's so surprising, especially you, that suddenly you were caught up. I was about to call 112. Really, this season of Got Talent is amazing. I'm freaking out. Congratulations. 10th anniversary deserves the best. I'm still dreaming about your show. Magic with acrobatics with a love story. Unbeatable. What else can you ask for? Let's see, guys. I have nothing against being cheesy. Wow. The problem is when you mix too many things in the cocktail. For me, quick change, aerial, I didn't care because one of them covers the other. If you look at quick change, you're not looking at the air. If you look at the air, you're not looking at the change of clothes. For me, it's a no. You're a bunch of artists. For me, it's a yes. It's another yes. You know what? When you finished, we were waiting for you to say Hello, my name is Frenik Farkas. It's true. I totally agree. And suddenly, they said Hello, we're Elena and Diego. And I said, how? We're from Madrid. How? They said honey on eyelashes. It's a super yes. 3 yeses.
