ОТВЕТЬТЕ НА ВОПРОСЫ ПО ТЕКСТУ И НАЙДИТЕ ПОДТВЕРЖДЕНИЕ В НЁ He’s the British illusionist who walk on water and has hundreds of celebrit fans and friends. But he started doin tricks to stop his bullies at school Steven ‘Dynamo’ Frayne is no ordinar illusionist. During our interview a pack o cards appears to levitate from the tabl and land in his hand before disappearing He continues talking, stops for a second then takes the cards from his mouth As he explains to me, it’s his job an his life’s mission to amaze people. H believes that, as we get older, we al want to feel young again and that trick and illusions can give us that feeling Dynamo’s shows certainly do that Steven grew up in one of the mos dangerous areas in Bradford. Since hi childhood, he has had a serious stomac illness. That meant that as a child h wasn’t as strong as his classmates. Wea and shy, he was a target for bullies. Whe he was 11, his mum used to send hi to school with two older kids, but the didn’t look after him. One day he told hi great-grandfather about it, who taugh him a few tricks. From then on, Dynamo’ life changed He demonstrates to me one o the tricks he learnt to sto the bullying. He asks m to pick him up, which I d easily. Then he looks a me for less than a secon and tells me to do it again Impossible! I try harder but can no longe lift him! Once he started doing tricks lik this on the bullies, they left him alone But their fear of him meant that nobod wanted to be near him. So he spent hi time in his bedroom practising. Th longer you practise, the better you get Thanks to that dedication and har work, Dynamo is one of the most famou illusionists in the world today, but he’ possibly the most modest, down-to-eart person you’ll ever meet. He remember how his career really started. When h had to spend six months in hospita because of his stomach illness, it was on of the worst times in his life. He starte wondering how people would remembe him if he died. This motivated him t make something of his life. He starte doing tricks in the street. He talked hi way backstage at concerts and did trick for famous artists such as Snoop Dogg One Direction and Coldplay. Soon h had a massive following on social medi networks, with tens of millions of peopl worldwide watching his videos. The came his own TV series which he ha since sold to more than 190 countries attracting 250 million viewers His ability to get attention was evident i 2011 when he amazed people by walkin on the River Thames in London. At first there were just 5 people watching but soon ther were thousands He had walke halfway acros the river when th police stopped him So, how did he do it Was ther transparent plasti under the surface of the water? Eve when you look more closely at th images, it’s impossible to know ‘I can honestly say that if I starte explaining it all,’ Dynamo says, ‘you’d b so bored you’d be begging me to stop afte a minute.’ After all, as he says, intrigue i the most powerful part of it Dynamo’s illness has never gone away But he finds that when he’s working hi stomach hurts him the least. ‘The bes distraction is an audience. My stomac hurts the least when I’m performing Adrenaline stops me feeling any pain. There can’t be many people in th world who are so calm an easygoing about walkin through windows or levitatin above the tallest building i London.
