MAGIE von Alexander Krist trifft Legenden – mein Auftritt bei Penn & Teller!

0:05 [applause] Welcome back. Let's keep the show rolling and bring out our next incredible act. When people say something is impossible, I see it as a challenge. My charian magic started when I was 24 performing on the street out of my fox wagon. I fought for the attention of my audience and I fought for tips and in the process I fell in love with magic. In 2007, I opened Europe's first close-up theater in Munich. They told me it was a crazy idea, but I did it anyway. It's now become a sanctuary for people who loves magic. Once during a rehearsal, I fell 5 m smashing my elbow. Doctors said I'd never perform again. But with surgery

0:53 and therapy, I made it impossible possible and regained the use of my arm. Performing in America for the first time makes me nervous. The language barrier, the pressure, but I love it. [music] Will I fool Penella tonight? Remember, nothing is impossible. [music] You just have to find the right solution. [applause] all the way from Germany. Give it up for Alexander Crease.
