How have they created this opportunity , especially during COVID ?
As a magician working on cruise ships Jonathan discovered very quickly that ‘ anything that can go wrong will go wrong ,’ so you spend a lot of your time working out how you are going to deal with that . Flash paper ignites too fast or doesn ’ t ignite at all . Shells fall off coins . Ropes don ’ t cut or you cut them in the wrong place . . . One story he recalls was performing a levitation illusion at sea but the first time they hit rough seas the illusion switched from “ the Floating Lady ” to “ the Crashing Lady .’ From that he realized anything that wasn ’ t bolted to a stage at sea needed to be anchored on that stage . Jonathan believes that if you are any good then you are paranoid and will work out every angle should something go wrong . That thinking translates to a contrarian view in the ‘ what if scenarios .’
