The World's Most Dangerous Magic was the title of two American television specials showcasing illusion and escapology acts, which were made for the NBC network.
The first was originally broadcast on 27 April 1998[1] and the second, titled The World's Most Dangerous Magic 2, was initially aired on 2 May 1999.
While some stunts clearly involved genuine life-threatening danger should anything have gone wrong, the risk of injury in others was open to question.
The Pendragons' presentation of this illusion is nevertheless rated by many magicians as possibly the best ever version of the trick.
Both specials were scored primarily using production music from the Atmosphere, Kosinus and Opus 1 libraries, and supplemented by material from Gary Ouellet's 'Designer Textures for Magicians'.
