I have been expelled from five different schools when I was a kid. And I learned basically all what I do by myself.

I didn't go to school much. I was thrown out of different schools, and my university is the street.

I was thrown out of different schools because I was practicing my arts - magic, juggling, and the high wire.

I have been performing in the street for more than 50 years: magic for basically 60 years, and the high wire 45 years. The beauty of it is that it's never the same. It's never easy. And yet, part of my art is to make it look easy.

As a high wire walker, I do not allow myself to 'leave the wire' during a performance.

My journey has always been the balance between chaos and order.
