The real thrill of dangerous illusions | 60 Minutes Australia
Jul 25 2023
REWIND BACK TO 2009 when Liz Hayes was asked to set someone on fire. All in the name of magic, for the escape artist Jonathan Goodwin. If David Copperfield is the smooth grand master of illusion, then Jonathan has to be the raw and grungy upstart. Part of a new breed, willing to risk their necks in stunts that really are death-defying. Nothing's too outrageous, too dangerous, or too humiliating. As you'll see, the world of magic has come a long way since the days of Harry Houdini.

For over forty years, 60 Minutes have been telling Australians the world’s greatest stories. Tales that changed history, our nation and our lives. Reporters Liz Hayes, Tom Steinfort, Tara Brown, Nick McKenzie and Amelia Adams look past the headlines because there is always a bigger picture. Sundays are for 60 Minutes.
