He's definately very talented at what he does! He was a pitcher on Cleveland State's baseball team and he threw in the 90s... so he has a great arm. His career is being a magician, so he's always doing something with cards. He broke the world record for throwing the card the farthest back in 2002. He threw it 216 feet and 4 inches. Since then, he's been on quite a few shows including Ripley's Believe it or not, The Wayne Brady Show, Steve Harvey's Big Time, Last Call with Carson Daly, Attack of the Show, I've got a secret, and all of the local TV channels here in Cleveland.
