Is Magic Real? | Jibrizy Magic | TEDxUofIChicago

"What is magic? It is the 'art of influencing or predicting events and producing marvels using hidden natural forces.' Magic is influential, Magic can see the hidden potential that is about to unfold in front of your eyes." Chicago native and Hip-Hop illusionist Jibrizy launched his magic career at the age of 7 when he began showcasing his work on KZbin. Due to his diagnosis with Crohn's Disease, Jibrizy was unable to play outside with other kids, leading him to spend most of his time honing in on his magic skills inside alone. To his and his families surprise, his videos began to gain tremendous traction online, garnering hundreds of millions of views and eventually going viral. Jibrizy took this new moniker and ran, branding himself as the new urban magical force to be reckoned with.
Jibrizy’s meteoric social media rise/ presence began to be felt and could no longer be ignored by the magic community. After performing on and winning Penn and Teller’s hit show Fool Us, Jibrizy’s platform began attracting life-changing opportunities. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
