Criss Angel Mindfreak

- Season 5

(2009)

Criss takes the "Buried Alive" escape attempt to an unprecedented level, adding the extra weight and freezing temperatures of snow and ice.

Criss and his team head to Edwards Air Force Base in California where they take "Mindfreak" to an explosive new level. Criss first learns about the dangers of mines and Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDS) and works with the K-9 bomb detection unit to learn about their remarkable abilities.

Criss Angel has demonstrated he can levitate anywhere: he has levitated more than 500 feet above Las Vegas Boulevard in the light of the Luxor Hotel and Casino; he has floated from one building to another; and he has shown the ability up close and in person on public sidewalks and streets. Now, he takes levitation to new heights by levitating an entire Las Vegas crowd.

Criss will attempt to accomplish the most impossible and mind-boggling transposition in "Mindfreak" history and perhaps magic history by teleporting himself--in one continuous camera shot--from one location to another. Defying Newton's Law of Gravity, Criss will stand more than 250 feet above the Las Vegas strip, drop an object and be at the bottom in time to catch it.

Surrounded by cameras at every angle and thousands of spectators on the Las Vegas Strip, Criss Angel will attempt his most death-defying illusion ever with "Death Crash." Five upright coffins--all equipped with interior cameras--will be placed on the Las Vegas Strip and one merciless, speeding car will be employed to smash them to splinters.
