​@@PrayingToTheAlien Depends there are illusions and there are dark art spell casting which are the lies of superstition and curses . I think entertainer magicians , illusionists , the magic they cast is the wonder of inquiry , how has this individual manged to trick my senses into seeing something i know can't be real but their methods provide me with a questioning of my own judgement and such tricks are for entertainment only . A good magician provides surprise and astonishment and may use magical spell casting words such as abracadabra to add to the entailment an mystery aspect of the shows that they put on . Most people can tell there is sleight of hand , collaboration of many to make the largest tricks work, the physical conditioning of the individual to pull stunts a normal person wouldn't attempt, the court jester has long been part of human culture to distract us from the more mundane and taxing parts of the populations daily chores. As such these Las Vegas "super magicians" put on shows that have such great pull and attraction for our entertainment, with the hope one day their name will join the list of the great illusionists of popular culture.
