Apollo Robbins

On our stage at:

2014

Apollo Robbins is a performer, speaker and consultant, and one of the world's leading experts in pickpocketing, sleight of hand, misdirection and deception. Forbes called him a skilled manipulator of awareness: a pioneer in the art of deception whose work has become a reference for the scientific community, law enforcement and government agencies studying human behaviour.

He has been featured in the New Yorker, the New York Times, the Los Angeles Times and Wired. His appearances on "The Today Show" are among the most watched videos on YouTube, with more than 7 million views, and TED editors described his talk at TED Global 2013 as a revelation about the flaws of human perception. He also worked on a Warner Bros. film starring Will Smith.

He was our guest at the 2014 Masters of Magic Convention.
