Magician Cyril takes a trip round Asia, including Singapore

Best known for his magic performances around Japan, you may have watched a video of his most popular hamburger trick at one point or another. Walking towards a framed hamburger menu, he then proceeds to (literally) pick out an actual cheeseburger from the picture, taking a mighty chomp out of it. Later he returns the half-eaten burger back into menu - with a big bite mark still on it.

Cyril was recently in Singapore as part of overseas filming. Being his first time performing in Singapore, Cyril confessed that the humidity made things a little trickier than usual. "The biggest challenge would be when we are filming outdoors If I had known that it is so humid in Singapore, I would have practiced in the sauna first before filming here."

He was tightlipped about divulging details of his short stopover in Singapore. "We went to Orchard road and found some passers-by to film some street magic. We were also at Arab Street and the Merlion. I can't reveal too much I'm not sure what footages will appear since the clip has to undergo some editing still."

Besides the entertainment, the show runs on the mantra that nothing is impossible. Watch Cyril globetrot around various locations in Asia as he fascinates unsuspecting passers-by with his many illusions.

Catch Cyril on his debut international TV special, Cyril: Simple Magic on AXN at 9pm on 19 Nov.
