More about our guest, Mahdi:
"Growing up without arms or legs, Mahdi felt like everything was impossible for him. Watching magicians perform the impossible made him feel like he could anything. He believed in magic and he knew that if he became a magician then nothing would be impossible for him.
As a teenager he would study and use magic, psychology, hypnosis, suggestion, and showmanship to create his own brand of unique magical experiences that took place in his audience’s minds. But Mahdi wanted more, he didn’t just want his magic to remain in people’s imaginations, he wanted his magic for be physical, something that they could feel and touch; he needed his magic to be real.
Mahdi was forced to reinvent magic for himself, literally redefining how a deck of cards can be handled. He performs wonders without hands, walks the Earth without feet, is a miracle to everyone he meets and is living proof that nothing is impossible."
