At No. 5 would be Angel’s “Walking on Water” which has gone viral, becoming one of the best-viewed magic tricks of all-time on cyberspace.
His “100 Disappear” illusion would come in at No. 4, which earned him a Guinness World Record, for most people to vanish in a single illusion. This happened on May 26, 2010, in Las Vegas, where he had 10 rows of 10 people that were handcuffed together, and those in the outer rows raised the curtain, and they were able to disappear afterwards.
“Enigma” comes in at No. 3, which he regularly performs in his “Believe” and “Mindfreak” live shows, and he is able to defy impossible conditions and emerge in the other side of the theater, reigning triumphant. It is no wonder that he saves this demonstration for last.
At No. 2 would be his levitation at the top of the Luxor Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, which left people from all over the world in total awe of his talent and craft.
When all is said and done, at No. 1, Angel’s greatest magic trick, in this journalist’s humble opinion, is his “metamorphosis.” He accomplishes this illusion faster than any other magician out there, and he does it without any drapes or covers. Just pyrotechnics, sheer talent, and the result is explosive.
