About
Often referred to as 'Ireland's Houdini' by the European Media & Press, Spade is just as busy behind the camera as a TV & Movie Consultant for actors, with productions and organisations like 'Vikings', 'Cocaine Bear', Universal Pictures, 'The Wonder' (Netflix), and as Magic Teacher for Florence Pugh.
As a Magician & Escape Artist, Spade has been burnt alive, completed underwater escapes, drove classic cars blindfolded, predicted headlines, performed magic in Time Square.
Besides also performing shows in Manhattan and Las Vegas for private celebrities, Spade has even done "the biggest escape stunt to ever happen in Northern Ireland" (QRadio). This stunt was a breathtaking challenge escape where he had to free himself from chains and locks that were supplied by the challenger of the stunt, all while locked inside a mobile home primed with explosives, with a 50 ton shipping container hang above.
