Simon, do you remember me?
- Of course I remember you.
Forget you and I have met.
Tell us who you are. What's the dream?
- Okay, my name is Keiichi Iwasaki,
and I have been traveling with bicycle.
Yeah, I'm very happy to be here.
- Okay, so why are you here?
- No. Because it's a big, big opportunity to show my magic
all over the world.
- All right. Good luck, Keiichi.
- Yeah, thank you. Arigato gozaimas.
- Arigato.
- Yeah.

- Hello. - Yep.
I have two handkerchiefs here.
Okay, please? Okay.
- Okay. - Could you make a knot?
Is it possible? - It is possible.
- Here, yes, please, make a knot.
- What you're doing? - Yes.
Very tight, please. - Okay.
- Very tight, please. - All right.
- [vocalizing] Okay. - Okay.
- Okay, one more time, please. - Another knot?

- And you dance, too. - Yeah.
Very tight, please. - I know.
- Very tight, Howie! - I'm doing it tight!
- Simon, do you want to check it?
- Yeah. - Check it.
- Check it.
- We do.
Yes, two parts.
[straining] And it's very tight.
- That's a knot. - Okay. That's a knot.
Now, usually, Howie, how long does it take to untie it?
- Two minutes, three minutes.
- No, maybe three days, but give me your hand like this.
- What? - Open like this.
- It is.
- Hold here. Hold it, hold it, yes.
But don't move. It's very dangerous, okay?
- Okay. Okay. - Don't move.
[exhales sharply, grunts goofily]
Open your hand.
- What happened? - Open your hand.
[vocalizing]
Next magic is this one.
[buzzer sounds]
- Whoa. - Oh.
I need a little light from here.
- What? - [grunting goofily]
Sorry. Here.
No!
Heidi! In hair.
Sorry, excuse me.
No, Simon!
Open your mouth. [grunting goofily]
[grunting, shouting]
Your ear. - It's in my ear?
- Do a little bit like this. Okay, no.
Oh, again!
[grunting goofily]
- I love this guy.
- Heidi, could you come join me to the stage?
- Yes. - Thank you.
[cheers and applause]
You're tall. - Yes.
- Sorry.
Yes, my last trick is this.
And this is what? Blindfold.
So can you see anything?
- Well, now I can. You want me to put it on?
- No, no, I can't see it.
- No, I can't see through it. both: Okay.
- Now I put this like this.
- Oh, you want it? - Yes.
Now I make like this, tighten.
Give me a finger like this.
Is it okay? Can I touch this?
- You can touch it. - Yes.
- I'm not like Howie. - Okay.
Then I have a...
[humming]
A ring, okay?
Can I put on this here? Okay.
Please, don't move.
It's a very difficult magic trick.
- I won't move. both: Okay.
- Give me your ring.
Okay.
Please don't move. - I'm not moving.
- It's incredibly difficult.
This ring from here, without watching--
One, two, three.
Oh!
Is it flying?
I can't see it. - It's spinning!
- Okay. Now it's just like this, okay?
Also like this. - Wow.
- Okay? Now it's passing.
- Whoa.
- That is weird.
- Heidi, don't move! - I'm not moving!
- Hep!
[grunting goofily]
- Oh, my goodness.
- Oh. - Ah!
- Yo!
[cheers and applause] Whoa!
- [laughs] Wow!
Thank you.
- Listen, I'm up here looking as close as I can,
and I can't see how he did that.
- Howie?
- You are amazing.
How far did you go on "BGT"?
- Semifinal.
But the judges' choice was not me.
- Right. They didn't-- - Oh!
I remember! - Oh.
I'm sorry. - Simon was there.
- Is the idea that you want to redeem yourself?
- Yes, of course.
- Because I think the Superfans are going to love you.
I love you. - Thank you!
[cheers and applause]
- Yeah, I loved you already when you came on to the stage.
You're super excited, which is getting me excited, too,
because you're, like, high speed
and you're moving things around.
Then I was right there with this ring--was amazing.
- Yeah. - I love you.
- I love you, too.
[cheers and applause]
- But, yeah, I mean, look,
I've always liked you because a lot of magicians
do take themselves very seriously on this show,
and they are quite boring with their little card tricks
and stuff like that.
You, however, have a personality.
- Yes.
- People are going to like you.
Let's see what happens.
[cheers and applause]
