I was just reading Gift From The Gods by Val Andrews which is a book on the great life of Ching Ling soo, who is my favorite stage illusionist for his amazing skill and his understanding of making a character for the spectators experience, he was an American actually
So I finished the book and well I know most of you know that he died performing the bullet catch, loads of magicians have died from the bullet catch, they all risked it not to just for the spectators but for themselves they risked death.
Maybe not a bullet catch for us modern close up magician but maybe something like Through and Through by Dan Hauss or some of the REAL geek magic which have a great risk behind them, How far would you go to perform?
I mean just risking it so that the audience will have a good time and for you.

EDIT: The title is wrong its supposed to say How far would you go?
