For years, I've had this idea in my head of jumping from a bridge on fire. Wow! I've always loved things that look like magic but are actually real.

So, I'm traveling around the world to find the most incredible people that have the most incredible talent that have been passed down for generations. Many of the things I'm seeing, I didn't even know were possible.

This is the one Rob said he's most concerned with. Rob, why didn't you like this? He's setting his head on fire. Can't make it simpler than that!

This is giving me a new perspective on what I think of as magic. I'm going into the hidden parts of all these places. I'm learning the history of what they do, and they're giving me a crash course and letting me into their world.

And every episode culminates in me taking these skills that I've learned, and I'm trying something that I've never done and never could have imagined.

I will see you guys in a little bit, okay? You? I'm meeting the most unbelievable people, understanding why they do it, and sometimes the method.

It's okay. Uhoh, are we safe to come out? This is the whole secret of everything in magic that looks so good. It's kind of the dream show. [Music]
