INTRODUCING: DYNAMO

I’m never usually left speechless. But lets be honest, when a dude turns five lottery tickets into five £20 notes right in front of your eyes, you’ve kinda gotta shut the fudge up.

I’m also not a strong believer in magic, or should I say I wasn’t a strong believer, not until I turned up to a mates party and met Dynamo Magician. Now we’d met before, quite a few times, and I’d seen him perform magic on more than one occasion, but they were alcohol filled occasions so I brushed off the supposed magic and put it down to what my good old mate talktofrank.com said “Alcohol will often exaggerate whatever mood you’re in when you start drinking.” This time though, I was very much so sober.

“Hold out your hands”. said Dynamo. I followed the instruction. He placed a chocolate from the christmas tree in my palm, waved his own hand across mine and the chocolate disappeared. Look, I know what you’re all thinking. “Why has MistaJam give this crazy girl access to his blog”. But seriously. I’m not lying. It definitely happened. Anyway his next comment was “Why have you got chocolate on your shoulder?” I turned – as you do, to find the chocolate perched on my shoulder. As you can imagine. I screamed. Inside I’m still screaming. It was first scary, then amazing, then exciting and now it’s just scary again!

We got chatting a bit more and he revealed he’s filming a new TV show this summer which will feature some well know faces and some incredible brand new magic. I’m petrified already. Seeing it live is one thing but on television is a completely different kettle of fish. (Or whatever the phrase is)

I’m going to admit, by this stage I needed a drink, Sidebar: drink responsibly. So I grabbed a bottle of wine and sat back down. Now the whole room was intrigued. They were all asking to see him make more magic. He casually took five lottery tickets out of his jacket pocket.

PAUSE: This is where, for me, the alarm bells totally started ringing. Who in their right mind walks around with five lottery tickets in their pockets?

He showed us all five, folded them in half and as he turned them, they were suddenly £20 notes. Can I just put it out there again. I AM NOT CRAZY. About 10 other people witnessed this too! Then he put them back in his pocket, casually and leaned back in his chair.

When asked when he thinks of David Blaine, his good friend and comedian Jamie Howard replied, “He put him in a box”. I  swear to you I haven’t laughed that much since John and Edward performed Oops I Did It Again on X Factor.

Have a look at his showreel anyway, he made actress Lindsay Lohan levitate and pulled a chain out of his neck in front of N.E.R.D member Pharrell.

Follow him on Twitter HERE to keep up with the crazy things he does. You will be amazed, honestly, cause I, a former non magic believer, was left stunned!!

Toodles
