Ryan Brown making a hearse appear at Haunted Hollows Scream Park

From the October 28th post "Internationally Celebrated Magician to Make Hearse appear LIVE on Halloween at Ontario Haunted Hollows Scream Park" at 21WFMJ:

And just how, exactly, will this be done?

Internationally renowned magician, Ryan Brown, isn’t telling - but he says you can see it all on his Youtube series, Reality Magic. Brown has had a lot more time than usual to put into the series - waiting out COVID-19 at home back in Canada after wowing audiences in Las Vegas in three successful tours of the American entertainment capital.

Brown, who has developed an impressive reputation on the global magic scene, is on a first name basis with some of the world’s biggest names in magic. In 2011, he attended the acclaimed McBride's Magic and Mystery school in Las Vegas. In 2017 he returned for some performances including this one at the prestigious Wonder Ground owned by Jeff McBride.

“On my third time going to Vegas, the dream of doing this became surreal,” says the celebrated young magician. “I was given tours of legendary show rooms, I met David Copperfield, I spent time learning from the masters and performed again on stage at Jeff McBride's Wonder Ground.”

Big Trick Energy with Alex Boyer, Chris Ramsay, Eric Leclerc, and Wes Barker

Congratulations Alex, Chris, Eric, and Wes!

 

From the October 27th article "TruTV Orders Comedic Illusionist Stunt Series ‘Big Trick Energy’ From DIGA Studios" by Denise Petski at Deadline:

Per the network, “from shock collar card tricks to mind bending one of their own cars in broad daylight, no stunt is off limits and no line is uncrossable to these self-proclaimed “Abracadipshits.” Viewers will also get a peek behind the curtain when they reveal how some of these unforgettable experiences were created.”

“They’re more magical Jackasses than self-proclaimed Abracadipshits, but it goes without saying that Chris, Eric, Wes and Alex are making magic cool again,” says Corie Henson, EVP, head of unscripted programming for TBS, TNT, and truTV. “They’re charming, dangerous and hilarious. You’ll definitely want to spend the night with them.”

Said Tony DiSanto, CEO of DIGA Studios: “These guys are the real deal, as hilarious as they are amazing, sharing a bond of friendship and camaraderie that is at the heart of the show’s creative DNA. As a lifelong magic fan (and a spectacularly unaccomplished amateur magician), I personally couldn’t be more excited to unleash Big Trick Energy onto the world.”

Ryan Pilling interviewed on "The Best Magicians You've Never Heard Of"

From the September 29th Facebook post by Tips & Tricks for Magicians:

Catch 22: If I tell you I'm the guest on "The Best Magicians You've Never Heard Of" this week then I should NOT be the guest because in order to hear this from me you must have heard of me, thus making me ineligible to be on the show.
