VIDEO: World renowned illusionist Shimi Illuzini, who moved from Lakewood several years ago, caused hysteria during a live radio show, at which he made himself clinically dead.
Illuzini was flanked by two EMTs at the show, in case something went wrong – which nearly did.
The show was done for Adar.

Purim prank…
Wow! I am blown by how people can do something so dangerous. Is this guy unfamiliar with מנקים לו מזכיותיו. How can a stunt like this be enjoyed by bnei Torah at large. Utterly shocked. The amount of bitul zman that is blatant in this production is hopefully a ונהפוך thing
Top 5 dumbest things I’ve seen in my “life”time. And that’s being very generous.
Horrible taste in stunt and headline just as bad. Based on headline, it sounded like he died.
DON’T WATCH
thank you tls for giving me nightmares!! seriously pull it down I cant believe your showing this!!
I agree with Stupidity. It disgusts me how people can be fascinated by this.
#5- I understand your outrage at someone who could have such a disregard for life because by any measure this was dangerous and most people including myself are of the same opinion. Just I don’t think it’s fair to be critical of TLS for posting it. This posted video is in of itself a story for TLS to gauge people’s reaction and to hear people’s viewpoint which is in part of what this website is all about. I don’t believe that by the fact that TLS is posting this video implies that they condone this kind of foolishness but rather to get the reaction from the oilam, so please.
And if you believe this is real i have a bridge to sell you. he makes a living on fooling people oh and the machines? yes they were in on it
To all you that think its dangerous, Its not. Its a pure act. He put something in his armpit and therefore stopping his radial pulse which makes the machine beep. I except better from Shimmy!!!
Just watched. Please remove this post. The video is very graphic.
If TLS viewers would like to see dead people, just go on YouTube, and you can see hundreds of videos.
I’m an EMT. That video is way too much for the average person.
sheer stupidity
Remove this post. It’s in bad taste.
Please remove this post. It is in very poor taste and the headline is highly disturbing and frightening.
I don’t understand why this hasn’t been removed. It is in terrible taste and does not reflect our values. This is a very poor editorial choice.
