The Penn & Teller show is one of my favorites - as are most magic acts. This one? Not so much...

I never understood why they called this stunt "magic". I mean all they are trying to do is escape out of bondage.

If it were a real "magic" act, they'd have it all rigged up where the magician would escape every time.

He said “If I can open it up, then it will be magic, but if I can’t, it will be tragic,”. Tragic it was.
