If you love magic, pranks and stunts, you're in the right place.

0:00:020:00:04

We've got things that will dazzle you, trip you up...

0:00:040:00:07

and grab you.

0:00:070:00:09

Welcome to Now You See It.

0:00:110:00:12

Now, here's some footage of a young Eddie The Eagle.

0:00:230:00:27

"Oops. I hadn't quite nailed it."

0:00:270:00:29

Still, lovely guy, he'd bend over backwards for you...

0:00:290:00:31

..or indeed forwards.

0:00:330:00:34

LAUGHTER

0:00:360:00:38

What's going on? Justin Flom here.

0:00:420:00:45

I'm out. Um...

0:00:450:00:49

Ah. The guy in the Batman sweatshirt.

0:00:490:00:52

He's syphoning off that man's drink, instead of buying one...

0:00:570:01:00

saving himself about 20 quid in the process.

0:01:000:01:03

HE LAUGHS

0:01:080:01:11

Ooh! The man's noticed.

0:01:110:01:12

I like the way he thinks his drink may have slipped

0:01:120:01:14

onto the floor, somehow.

0:01:140:01:16

After a hard day stealing someone's mango Frappuccino,

0:01:170:01:20

there's nothing a magician likes more than to put his feet up...

0:01:200:01:23

a tree.

0:01:230:01:25

Keep it to yourself, but the secret is to tie a squirrel to each ankle.

0:01:250:01:29

I wonder what he's reading.

0:01:400:01:41

Probably an article about how expensive hammocks are.

0:01:410:01:45

Sadly, he had to stop doing this when he caught Dutch elm disease.

0:01:490:01:53

And now it's Andrew Mayne,

0:01:550:01:57

who's "Mayne" objective seems to be bothering people in restaurants.

0:01:570:02:01

What we're doing is, I'm going to try to send my presence

0:02:010:02:04

through my video here, and move the napkin.

0:02:040:02:07

-BOTH:

-Ohhh!

-THEY LAUGH

0:02:090:02:11

-Isn't that cool?

-Come on.

-I like that.

-You ready? All right.

0:02:110:02:14

Andrew's a great magician. You could call him a safe pair of hands...

0:02:140:02:18

Check this out.

0:02:180:02:19

THEY SCREAM

0:02:190:02:20

..except that one, which is terrifying.

0:02:200:02:23

OK... OK...

0:02:230:02:25

Ahhhh.

0:02:260:02:28

-Wave your hand under there. Everything's fine.

-OK.

0:02:280:02:32

Wait up.

0:02:320:02:33

-OK.

-And we all believe, maybe there's something to that.

-Awesome.

0:02:330:02:36

Want to see that again? Check it out.

0:02:360:02:38

-Oh, gosh!

-Oh-ho!

0:02:380:02:40

THEY SCREAM

0:02:420:02:45

Are you serious? What?!

0:02:450:02:47

-Is that cool?

-There's nobody under there.

-How you doing?

0:02:480:02:52

-Is there people under there?

-How did you do that?

0:02:520:02:54

-Some kind of connection, right?

-Oh!

-Absolutely!

0:02:540:02:57

SHE SCREAMS

0:02:570:02:58

Let's give him a big hand!

0:02:580:02:59

Or we could just e-mail it to him.

0:02:590:03:01

I can't believe that happened!

0:03:010:03:04

Don't pay for your school dinner this way - it could take ages.

0:03:040:03:07

You feel naked without your phone, these days, don't you?

0:03:100:03:13

Huh?

0:03:130:03:14

Phew!

0:03:140:03:16

Ooh, great, it's one of those sofa summer sales.

0:03:160:03:19

50% off everything.

0:03:190:03:21

Don't worry, he was taken to hospital,

0:03:210:03:22

where doctors described his condition as "comfortable."

0:03:220:03:26

Time now to meet an Irish mentalist.

0:03:260:03:28

I'm not being rude, by the way - that's his actual job title.

0:03:280:03:30

Here's the magic of Keith Barry.

0:03:300:03:33

I've invited Nicole from The Pussycat Dolls

0:03:330:03:35

and the musical artist Eve out here today

0:03:350:03:38

for a drive which, believe me,

0:03:380:03:40

they're never going to forget.

0:03:400:03:41

-Oh!

-I've got a metal blindfold here which you need to slip on.

0:03:410:03:44

I'm going to say that blindfolded driving is not cool. Don't do it.

0:03:440:03:47

-Like you would.

-You can't see anything through that metal?

0:03:470:03:50

-I cannot see anything.

-OK, I'm going to put the bag on.

0:03:500:03:52

Can you see anything at all through those bags and blindfolds?

0:03:520:03:55

-No.

-There's no way you can see, correct?

-Mm-hmm.

-OK.

0:03:550:03:57

Nicole is going to extreme lengths here to hide from the paparazzi.

0:03:570:04:01

-Oh, no.

-OK, keep your hands there.

0:04:010:04:02

There's no way to see through that blindfold at all, correct?

0:04:020:04:05

-No, I can't see.

-OK. Let's take off the bag.

0:04:050:04:07

You take off the metal part yourself.

0:04:070:04:10

-Can I open my eyes?

-Yeah, open your eyes.

0:04:100:04:12

-Have you ever heard of second sight?

-No.

0:04:120:04:15

Second sight is whereby, basically, a mind control specialist

0:04:150:04:17

can see through somebody else's eyes.

0:04:170:04:19

Now, first of all, I want you to make sure...

0:04:190:04:21

there's no mirrors on me or anything. Have a look.

0:04:210:04:24

Genuinely, look down here. Cos I'm going to...

0:04:240:04:26

-No.

-Happy?

0:04:260:04:27

OK, the reason I got you to check... I'm going to try this right now.

0:04:270:04:30

And you say you've done this trick before, Keith?

0:04:300:04:33

I'm going to tuck this in.

0:04:360:04:38

-And you're going to drive?

-OK, I'm going to try and drive.

0:04:400:04:43

EVE AND NICOLE SHRIEK

0:04:450:04:47

Listen to that shrieking! It's like a Pussycats Dolls concert.

0:04:470:04:51

I... I meant the audience.

0:04:510:04:53

-NICOLE SHRIEKS

-I'm looking, I'm looking, I'm looking!

0:04:530:04:55

Look at the speed Keith's going!

0:04:550:04:57

Left, to the left, to the left.

0:04:580:05:00

EVE SCREAMS

0:05:000:05:01

OK, OK, OK, OK!

0:05:010:05:03

To the right, to the left, to the left!

0:05:030:05:05

I'm shaking right now!

0:05:070:05:09

Did I do OK?

0:05:110:05:12

No, I'm afraid to say you failed your driving test, Mr Barry.

0:05:120:05:15

Now, please let me out of the car!

0:05:150:05:16

It was the coolest, scariest thing I've ever done in my whole life.

0:05:160:05:19

-Like, nobody else can say they've ever done that!

-Right. Exactly.

0:05:190:05:22

All those other celebrities out there in Hollywood,

0:05:220:05:25

be afraid, because Keith is in town.

0:05:250:05:28

Still in the USA, with Roman Atwood's bewildering prank

0:05:280:05:31

in sunny California. Surely the last place you'd expect to get a cold.

0:05:310:05:35

HE SNEEZES VIOLENTLY

0:05:350:05:36

He's got a serious case of man flu.

0:05:360:05:39

HE SNEEZES

0:05:390:05:40

Unfortunately, he's got nowhere to throw his tissues.

0:05:400:05:43

HE SNEEZES

0:05:430:05:45

Well, you shouldn't have put all that pepper on his spag bol!

0:05:450:05:48

HE SNEEZES

0:05:480:05:50

On the plus side, he could use that sneeze

0:05:500:05:52

to clear the leaves off his lawn.

0:05:520:05:54

What was that? Was that you?!

0:05:560:05:58

That wasn't me, that was you.

0:05:590:06:01

Did you just sneeze the trash cans over?!

0:06:010:06:03

-Did you see that?

-What did you just do there?

0:06:030:06:06

-HE SNEEZES

-"Bless you" is what you should say.

0:06:060:06:08

Those bins will be left like that, now,

0:06:080:06:10

-until the second Tuesday of the month.

-Bless you.

0:06:100:06:13

HE LAUGHS

0:06:130:06:14

What's worse than one precocious teenage boy?

0:06:140:06:18

Three - no - four teenage boys.

0:06:180:06:20

And here's a VERY heavy sleeper.

0:06:230:06:25

Oh, it's sad to see Teletubbyland has gone to seed.

0:06:270:06:30

Or maybe this is just the worst Center Parcs ever.

0:06:300:06:32

Anyway, time for a motorbike stunt.

0:06:320:06:34

He'll be fine - he had his helmet on.

0:06:360:06:38

Well, as any self-respecting coward would do, the guy in headphones

0:06:380:06:42

elects to run away very quickly, and pretend it never happened.

0:06:420:06:44

Quite how he'll explain it to his friend's mum is beyond me, too.

0:06:460:06:49

Ha-ha! He's back. Now, that really was a Triumph.

0:06:500:06:54

Or was it a Kawasaki?

0:06:540:06:56

The subject of this Three Is The Magic Number is two,

0:06:570:07:01

and by that I mean twins.

0:07:010:07:02

Magic twins.

0:07:020:07:04

Yeah, I know what you're thinking -

0:07:070:07:08

"They're not twins - their jackets are different colours."

0:07:080:07:11

Well, it's the only way their mum can keep track

0:07:110:07:13

of the twin she likes.

0:07:130:07:14

Clearly, she prefers the one in the red, who responsibly

0:07:160:07:18

stops his sibling from messing about with giant matches.

0:07:180:07:22

Nice dramatic door-shutting, there.

0:07:240:07:26

But where's Mum?

0:07:260:07:28

Ah, here she is, looking great for 86.

0:07:280:07:30

Ooh - bit doddery, though.

0:07:300:07:32

Now, set cabin doors to manual - it's time for our Big Finish.

0:07:320:07:35

And this is what I call in-flight entertainment.

0:07:350:07:39

Extreme escape artist Robert Gallup performing his legendary

0:07:390:07:42

The Challenge Of The Death Dive, in which he risks certain death.

0:07:420:07:47

Not just any old death - certain death, which is much, much worse.

0:07:470:07:51

Robert is handcuffed and tied inside a mailbag.

0:07:530:07:55

At least if he doesn't get out in time,

0:07:570:07:58

he'll get posted back to his house.

0:07:580:08:00

Presumably in a package marked "Fragile."

0:08:000:08:02

Chucked out of the plane at 18,000ft,

0:08:060:08:09

he has just 50 seconds to escape and put on his parachute.

0:08:090:08:12

It's at about this stage of Robert's stunt

0:08:160:08:18

that the mailbag can never be used again.

0:08:180:08:21

He's out of the mail bag, but he's still inside a locked cage,

0:08:310:08:34

and falling fast.

0:08:340:08:36

It's a once-in-a-lifetime experience...

0:08:380:08:40

particularly if it goes wrong.

0:08:400:08:43

Of course, he's Robert Gallup...

0:08:430:08:44

it won't go wrong.

0:08:440:08:46

Yes! He's got the door open.

0:08:480:08:49

He straps on his parachute.

0:08:490:08:51

Yeah, you'd feel a fool if you forgot THAT. And...

0:08:510:08:54

# I believe I can fly

0:08:540:08:58

# I believe I can touch the sky

0:08:580:09:02

# I think about it every night and day... #

0:09:020:09:06

It was a good day. Nobody died.

0:09:060:09:09

That DOES sound like a good day.

0:09:090:09:10

Although a good day for me is usually just having a bit of lunch

0:09:100:09:13

and going to the park.

0:09:130:09:14

You should try it, Robert.

0:09:140:09:15

I'm looking, I'm looking, I'm looking!

0:09:180:09:20

That's it for this journey into the world of mystery and magic.

0:09:200:09:24

A world in which nothing is quite what it seems.

0:09:240:09:27

At least I hope not, for his sake.
