Who is Stephen Frain? How is this name known in Russia? After all, even by pronunciation it is clear that this person comes from Britain! Perhaps this is the person with the most controversial reviews. Part of the audience is confident in his skill as an illusionist, but the other part is negative and considers Stephen's tricks to be a scam and a TV game. Is it so? Can any point of view be confirmed? Let's try to figure it out and clean up Frain's reputation.
The guy with wild dynamics
In 1982, a very active and intelligent boy was born, it was Stephen Frain. Stephen spent his childhood in one of the districts of Bradford with a very unpleasant reputation. It would not be an exaggeration to say that the boy's childhood was extremely difficult; Stephen Frain of those times was an outcast and often found himself in the center of fights. To save himself from the attacks of teenagers, he decided to switch their attention and began to showtricks. Surprisingly, the trick worked, because at the age of 11 the boy became very skilled in art. Stephen Frain received his first lessons from his grandfather, who showed him the basic techniques and tricks. The grandfather was and remains a source of inspiration for the guy.
Hocus Pocus
Is the illusionist Stephen Frain really that strong? What is the reason for the popularity of this name? It seems that he demonstrates magic. The guy breaks all the laws of physics, moreover, he is not interested in classical tricks. He approaches his program with imagination, because he burns with the desire to surprise others. The guy pulls money out of thin air, reads minds and puts things through glass. He makes diamonds out of snow, and if he wants, he can easily pass through a shop window. Stephen Frain's tricks are so diverse that you can't take your eyes off during the show. Without much difficulty, he pushes a mobile phone into a bottle with a narrow neck, and the phone does not deform in any way. If this enthralls the audience, then what about the way Steven effortlessly extracts candy from his own throat with the help of a chain?! The sight is amazing, albeit a little strange. What can we say about the numerous tricks with cards! It was the virtuoso performance of those that made the guy an undesirable person in most gambling establishments.
Talent or deceit?
The incredible illusionist Stephen Frain is distinguished by his originality. He invents all his tricks on his own, and therefore style is felt in them. His program is constantlyimproved, and this attracts the attention of the stars. Natalie Imbruglia, Lindsay Lohan and many others took part in Stephen's numbers. Even being nearby, they cannot understand how he manages to stop the work of the heart, lift a barbell weighing 155 kilograms. Maybe it's magic? Indeed, quite recently, Stephen demonstrated the truly impossible - he walked on water. Many people around the world are trying to recognize the secrets of Dynamo's skill, looking for videos with revelations. Of course, some of his tricks are quite transparent, but most of the illusions seem impossible. This is how people begin to believe in miracles. Is it possible to call deception something that causes so many emotions in the audience? After all, Stephen does not declare his magical powers, but calls himself a magician.
Like God…
The trick with walking on water really caused a sensation. British illusionist Stephen Frain realized it on the River Thames right in front of the Palace of Westminster in London. The amazed passers-by could not believe their eyes, because the guy calmly walked on the water to the middle of the river, and then climbed onto the boat that arrived. Immediately after the demonstration of the trick, the illusionist's fans analyzed the shooting in detail. But it's the focus! So what is its s alt? Stephen himself, of course, kept silent about this. Soon the audience figured it out and realized that it was all about a massive, non-sinking platform made of a transparent material - plexiglass. She was previously anchored at the embankment. If such a trick were shown in a pool, then everything would be obvious, but the water in the Thames is very dark and muddy, sothe platform has been hidden.
Fan Squad
Steve has a lot of fans, including famous people. This includes both Will Smith and P Diddy. These ranks were joined by Jay Z, Gwyneth P altrow, Paris Hilton and many others. Performer and musician Tiny Tempo was impressed by Dynamo by passing a chain through his own neck, and for Demi Moore, a magician pulled a swallowed thread from his stomach. Frain's tricks impressed billionaire Richard Branson so much that he knelt before the illusionist. And Lindsay Lohan was shocked when only the power of thought Dynamo made her rise into the air.
Working technique
Why was it called Dynamo? It was at a celebration in honor of the anniversary of Houdini, which was held at the Hilton Hotel. Frain performed for illusionists Aaron Fisher and David Blaine. The fellows in the workshop appreciated the work of the young guy, and someone from the audience shouted out in a fit of emotion that this was not a man, but a dynamo! And so the nickname grew. A very young Dynamo was impressed by hip-hop culture and street dancing. He applied a similar approach to work in his tricks, adding an element of surprise, proximity to the people. He began to implement his plan in 2004, when he moved to London. Here Stephen performed right on the street, went backstage and worked for the attendants. Gradually, he came out from behind the scenes onto the stage, he was often invited by performers to their concerts. In 2007, he received an award in the field of charity and at the same time shocked Will Smith with a trick withcandy. In 2011, Dynamo joined the "Magic Circle". This is a respected community of British illusionists. In addition, Dynamo continues to write, and in 2013 he released an autobiography, which he called "Nothing is Impossible".
No restrictions
Even after becoming popular, Frain continues to go out into public places and perform tricks on ordinary citizens. On the beach in Miami, Dynamo was able to physically move the tan line on the girl's hand. The magician admits that life seems to him an illusion, and this allows him to come to the conclusion that each person can create his own reality. That's the kind of person Stephen Frain is. Exposing tricks does not bother him. After all, this is primarily work, so there is nothing to worry about if the viewer guesses the old trick. The media talked for a long time about one of the last tricks of the master - levitation next to a double-decker bus. Frain drove through the city, being outside the bus and holding his hand on its roof. At the same time, he casually dangled his legs and free hand. Spectators had the opportunity to make sure that not a doll, but a real living person hung next to the buses. What is the focus? It turned out that Frain was not the inventor of this trick. He "borrowed" it from the German illusionist Johan Lorbier, who, however, did not ride around the city, but simply hung at a height. The secret of the focus is in a special design made to fit the human hand. A frame-saddle in the form of pants is attached to the arm. So the magician could feel absolutely comfortable inthis position. Well, the trick is out, but does that make it any less impressive?
