Recently, on the 17th Annual Hooters International Swimsuit Pageant, Steve created an original multimedia illusion in which he took “sawing a woman in half” to new technological levels. For the first time in the history of magic, the separated body parts (head and torso and legs and feet) could be examined up close by an audience member. Audrina Patridge, star of MTV’s The Hills and NBC’s First Look, checked out the body parts and could not believe what she was seeing. For the ultimate finale to the illusion, Steve reassembled the girl and virtually morphed her clothing into the Hooters iconic uniform.

Marc inspected a crate after which Steve stepped into it and levitated himself and the crate a few feet off the ground.

SteveonBikeAngled-SmallSteve Wyrick was able to accomplish what no other magician in Las Vegas history had been able to achieve – he closed down the world-famous Las Vegas Strip not once but twice, on two separate occasions, for illusions filmed for television. The first was for American Chopper on the TLC network. The Teutuls of Orange County Choppers built Steve a new bike to commemorate his 1,000th show at Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino and it was presented to him on the Las Vegas Strip in the largest and most creative bike reveal ever for their show.

The second illusion was filmed for Ford Motor Company. Steve partnered with world-famous drifter Vaughn Gittin, Jr. and created a stunt that shut down The Strip entirely in both directions for a mile. Thousands of Las Vegas tourists watched from behind sidewalk barricades as Steve performed one of the most dangerous challenges ever staged in the history of Las Vegas. The stunt was broadcast on Ford.com , Spike Tv.com and aired on “The 10 Unleashed” series of webisodes that also featured Queen Latifah.
