🚨PICKPOCKET A POLICE OFFICER IN FRONT OF 1,200 OTHER POLICE OFFICERS (without getting arrested)🚨 That was the request. To see the full video, visit: Facebook: https://bit.ly/2sthCZG YouTube: https://bit.ly/2HfTmVn As you can imagine, my mind immediately started racing. It was not only a unique request (and a rather daunting challenge), but it would be to benefit an incredible cause. So, I jumped at the chance. On November 08, 2018, I had the privilege of performing for the 2018 International delegation of @letrforso welcome ceremony. The event, which hosted some of our finest men and women in law enforcement, as well as @specialolympics athletes from all over the world, took place at @ballysvegas and celebrated not only the fantastic achievements and hard work of the competitors but also the kindness and generosity of the LETR volunteers. LETR began in 1981 when Wichita, Kansas Police Chief Richard LaMunyon created the Torch Run. He thought the Torch Run would help law enforcement be active in the community and support Special Olympics Kansas. In 1983, Chief LaMunyon presented the program to the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP). They decided to endorse Torch Run and became the “Founding Law Enforcement Organization.” With the IACP’s support, LETR became the movement's largest public awareness and fundraising group for Special Olympics. Since its inception over thirty years ago, LETR has raised over $600 million for Special Olympics programs and now includes many fundraising platforms, including Plane Pulls, Polar Plunges, and Tip-A-Cops, just to name a few. A huge thanks is owed to all of the participants, as well as all of the folks in their respective communities who take part in this and all of the Special Olympics activities around the world for their efforts, @caesarsentertainment for inviting myself and @jeffcivillico to take part in the festivities and all of the staff and volunteers behind the scenes that made this event and all of the others happen. This was entirely too much fun and will be something I'll remember for a lifetime! #JohnOnStage #Pickpocket #Quickpocket #Police #LawEnforcement #LasVegas #Magic

It's not every day that I get asked to dangle over 350 feet above the Las Vegas Strip, so when I was asked to take part in @olive.crest ’s #DropToStopChildAbuse event @caesarspalace on 11/03/2018, I was 1.) EXCITED BEYOND WORDS and 2.) TERRIFIED. I immediately replied YES to the e-mail I received and instantly felt a strong sense of panic. To see the full video, visit: Facebook: https://bit.ly/2STWUOw YouTube: https://bit.ly/2TGaftx The event was a massive success and helped raise awareness and funds to help Olive Crest continue their mission to making child abuse disappear in the state of Nevada. Now, with that in mind, heights and I have had a pretty weird relationship - I love flying and have had a blast cliff diving in the past but also have had a healthy fear of it too. However, the opportunity to go full @tomcruise and do some @missionimpossible stuff totally outweighed the deep-seated self preservation instinct that typically would’ve render me a jelly-legged pile of goo looking for something to anchor to. Thankfully, like most fears, it was a mental game and, with a couple weeks of mental prep and some great help, the experience ended up being A BLAST. Literally one of the most fun things I've gotten to do in awhile (and the second fastest time of the day, might I add). Maybe I'll have to find some more fun things to do on the off days 😉😁 Huge shoutout to @jeffcivillico for keeping me calm, the team from @ktnv for joining Jeff and I as we prepped for and made our descents, the great folks from #CaesarsEntertainment for opening their doors (and windows) to us, all of the folks from Olive Crest for inviting me and putting this on (as well as all that they do) and last but certainly not least, the incredible crew @overtheedgeglobal for making this a ridiculously fun (and safe) experience. #JohnOnStage #MagicMan #JeffCivillico #JuggleBoy #Charity #Rappelling #Building #Impossible #Fear #Heights #Resort #Hotel #Casino #LasVegas #Extreme #Fundraiser #Entertainer @caesarsentertainment

Flashback to my first @wnba halftime appearance with the @lvaces at #TheHouse @mandalaybay back on 06/27/2018. Everyone, from the players, coaches and fans to the #WildcardCrew and the folks behind the scenes were super welcoming. I had a great time getting to hang with @chetbuchanan and @bigdradio. Maybe we will again in Season 2?!

I was nervous that night as there was a lot to go right in order to make everything work and thousands of eyes watching should anything go wrong. Thankfully, I had a great team behind me that made sure we came up with something special and unique and helped see to it that everything ran like clockwork. Four fans were selected at random and were asked to think of four different things - a playing card, a place, a person and finally a four digit number. None of them were allowed to meet me and were instructed not to tell anyone what they had chosen. Earlier in the day, I took a few photos with my prediction for the evening, long before the fans began to make their way into the arena. Fans in the crowd were able to take part in the routine once halftime started by checking out my prediction on their smartphones so that the four fans taking part with me would never see my prediction until I showed it live. Huge thanks to the fans, everyone involved on the Aces side as well as my onsite team, @stevedesantis and @vinnygrosso for not only helping make this a success on the night but for the prep in the days prior as well. A big shoutout and thank you as well to @tyasfrantz and @banachekx for letting me bounce ideas off of them and being kind enough to lend their expertise. It is very appreciated. #AllIn #DoubleDown #Season2 #JohnOnStage #Magic #Mentalism #Arena #WNBA #Basketball #LasVegas #Halftime #ProSports #HalftimeEntertainment #Prediction #Prize #Mascot #FBF #FlashbackFriday @dallaswings

Of course, if you happen to be dressed in your #Halloween best AND be on a mission to spread goodwill, a well placed @bird will make that much quicker. #JohnOnStage #ComedicallyLateSocialMediaPost #Denver #DavidSPumpkins #AnyQuestions @educause
