From the June 6th Instagram post by Mind Bender:

I’m so excited to be finally able to share this announcement with you all and take you guys on this journey as I start something new in my career! This Wednesday we start filming my first ever TV show, ‘Mind Bender’s Great Escape’

‘Mind Bender’s Great Escape’ will follow Mind Bender's journey as he attempts Houdini's famous deathly suspension straitjacket escape. This time, Mind Bender will put an original spin on the stunt that has never been done before.

‘Mind Bender’s Great Escape’ is a reality-based show that teeters on the line of escape artists and the history behind their escapes. The show will take a peek into the magic industry as Mind Bender dives into the different ways of how he’s been able to turn magic into a profitable business since the age of 10. The first season will consist of 8 episodes, running 30-35 minutes each. Mind Bender will also take his viewers to the beautiful city of Toronto as he performs some of his most insane street magic yet.

The process of performing any death defying stunt can take a toll on you, both mentally and physically. For over a decade now, Mind Bender has been putting his life on the line for entertainment, so being able to top his last stunt has been one of his biggest roadblocks yet. Despite his loved ones being unhappy with his choice to pursue a dangerous career path, Mind Bender is determined to make this show one that his audience has never witnessed before.

‘Mind Bender’s Great Escape’ will air exclusively on @buzztv.live late October
