    "When the mind, body, and spirit work together, I believe anything is possible."
    —Criss Angel

    Christopher Nicholas Sarantakos (born December 19, 1967), better known by the stage name , is an American magician and illusionist who performs on the street. Close up. In impossible conditions. Anything that a normal magician can do on a stage with props, Criss Angel can do live without.

    He has appeared in several TV series, including

    Criss Angel provides examples of the following tropes:
    • Beyond the Impossible: Being a magician he invokes this trope for 'awe' factor. Find one stunt in the "magic" category that doesn't fit this trope. I dare you.
    • Forklift Fu: Performed a trick on Mindfreak where he appeared to get impaled by a forklift.
    • Hi, Mom!: Has been known to say this when demonstrating a Spectator's-Point of View Camera.
    • Saw a Woman In Half: Has done a variant of this trick with a legless woman and himself providing the two post-saw "pieces".
