- I'm Collins Key, I am 16 years old, and I love magic.
I'm a little bit of a loner, its
always been really difficult for me
to connect with people my own age.
As all my friends were out like partying,
or whatever they were doing, I was sitting
in my room reading all the books and
just learning as much as I possibly could.
And then I'd go out and try it out on people.
(pop)
Did you feel that?
- Yeah!
- Check it out, check it out.
(laughs)
- Oh my world, okay.
(laughs)
- I could just go anywhere and
people were like, oh my gosh you're a
magician, that's so awesome, that's what really
I was like, oh there might be something to this.
My mom and my dad are my biggest supporters.
- You feelin' ready?
_ Yeah, I just want to like,
yeah I just want to go out there.
- I'm so proud of you, I'm like so happy man.
(crying)
- My magic has really helped me to feel like,
this is me, this is who I am!
- You're about to step on stage, for a million dollars!
- A million dollars!
- [Host] Stand by guys, take your seats
please, take your seats!
- Go out there and get 'em Collins!
(cheering)
♫ All my secrets away.
- Who are you, what's your name?
- I'm Collins Key.
- Collins Key?
- Collins Key, yeah.
- How old today are you?
- I'm 16 years young.
- 16 years old, what are you going
to be doing for us today?
- I'm going to be doing, actually, some close-up magic.
(audience gasps)
- To do so, I wish you the best of luck and.
- Awesome!
- Go ahead!
- So before I start, actually I got
something to make this even more awesome.
Be right back.
- First time anybody's ever left the stage.
(laughs)
- Let's see if I got something,
yeah that should be.
- You gonna take my popcorn?
- Yeah.
- Wow.
- I'm actually gonna steal some
of this food, to bring to you guys, here we go.
(laughs)
- Taking my snacks.
(cheering)
- Hello, so I've got some snack-a-lackage, right there.
And to do this, I need to borrow a dollar bill.
So does someone have?
I didn't say it was free,
I didn't say it was free, oh Howie
got one, awesome, great, thank you!
(laughs)
Everyone here has a unique finger print,
which basically means, that out
of all the seven billion people in the world
you are the only person with that finger print.
Same thing with a bill, only the serial
number acts, as the bills fingerprint.
So to do this actually, Howard, I
would love for you to help me out with this.
What I want you to do.
- I hate helping.
- You hate?
- Yeah, but I'll do it.
- I'll make this easy for ya, I want you
to just read off that serial number for us.
- Alright, here we go, L, 0, 8,
7, 3, 0, 4, 3, 2, M as in Mary.
- Alright, awesome, here we go, great, thank you.
And now, Mel B, just take that bag for me.
Yeah, and just grab it by the bottom,
hold it above your head.
Now what I'm about to do, most people
say this is absolutely impossible.
I'm gonna get this bill to actually
teleport from my hand, to that bag.
Now to do this, I actually, need to use the power of fire.
(dramatic music)
(blowing)
- That's right, you take the sealed
bag of popcorn and just tear it open.
(ripping)
- Now open it up, you see something inside the bag?
- Yes!
- Yes, show it to Howard, show it to Howard.
You see something inside, pull it out and actually, yeah.
Heidi what I'd love for you to do,
is just please, read off the serial number on that
bill, let's see if it matches Howie's.
- L, 0, 8, 7, 3, 0, 4, 3, 2, M as in Magic.
- Wow!
- Let's make some noise!
(loud cheering)
(screaming)
- Thank you.
- I have no idea how he did that.
- Great.
- That was really good.
- How do you do that?
- Alright, you know, when I judge an act,
I put a lot of credibility into
what this crowd feels and how they react.
And that reaction was genuine,
you had people up on their feet.
Your trick was flawless, you're
gettin' emotional aren't you?
- Yeah, this is really, this means so much to me.
Yeah.
(cheering)
- Good for you.
(cheering)
- You weren't expecting that?
- No, not at all.
- Have you suffered a lot of rejection with your act?
Yeah.
- A lot, yeah.
- Today, you proved something, you
got the goods, you've got charisma,
you know how to handle yourself
for 16 years old, it's quite remarkable.
Good for you, I loved it.
- Thank you so much Howard.
(cheering)
- I liked it, I want to see more.
I love that you bring snacks.
(laughs)
I liked you.
- Thank you so much.
- Mel.
- I don't know how you did it, and
I want to see you do more stuff.
You, my friend, are great!
- Thank you.
(cheering)
- Howie
- Here's what's amazing to me.
I believe at 16 years old, you
have just stepped, sir, into your future.
- Thank you.
(cheering)
- Okay, alright.
So here we go.
- Yes for me.
- It's a yes.
- Yes.
- We are gonna see you, in Las Vegas!
(cheering)
♫ What you want to hear, something
♫ That will light those ears, sick
♫ Of all the insincere, so I'm
♫ Gonna give all my secrets away.
- Did you see that?
- That means a lot to him.
(laughs)
- Thank you.
- Congratulations, man!
- So much.
- He did an illusion, that I think
none of us could figure out.
- No!
- Nothing like we ever saw before.
