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. But Dynamo is n
ordinary person
