I have been hearing alot about this guy. Promoters in Vegas are very interested in him. He has been described as the new Houdini and the best Escapologist of this Era.
Shahid Malik is regarded as possibly the finest and most spectacular Escape Artiste in the World !
He holds 2 World Records for escaping from a Strait-Jacket : "The Fastest", and "The Highest" - at 1,800 feet, suspended upside-down beneath a Helicopter !
His talents as a Magician/Illusionist are no less outstanding. In 1985 he was awarded one of British Magic's highest accolades : "The MAGICIAN of the YEAR 85-86" (awarded by the International Brotherhood of Magicians)
His spectacular Escape Stunts have taken him around the world. Specialising in high-level and death-defying Escapology Stunts - Shahid has appeared on countless TV Shows throughout Europe and indeed many parts of the World.
The sensational and dare-devil nature of his Escape Stunts has an almost ‘magnetic attraction’ for Television and media.
Here's what Britain’s top TV Magician, Paul Daniels had to say about Shahid: "Possibly the finest presentation and technique of Escapology I’ve ever seen"
In the world of Magic & Illusion, self-styled Magician & Escapologist Shahid Malik - regarded by many as Britain’s most exciting Magician - commands a huge reputation entertaining and mesmerising audiences all around the globe.
His unique & original style and presentation leave a lasting impression - once you’ve seen him you’ll never forget the experience, a breath-taking performance is always guaranteed!
From Iceland to Bangkok, Egypt to India, Shahid has spent the last 25 years travelling the world and performing his sensational Magic & Escape Stunts; from Night-clubs and Theatres to Exhibitions and Outdoor Spectaculars, Shahid is in constant demand by the top shows, Cabarets, Conferences and major Corporate clients.
Awarded the supreme accolade of "Magician of the Year" (by the International Brotherhood of Magicians), holder of 2 World Records for his death-defying Escape stunts, regular appearances on top TV shows, Royal Command performances both at home and abroad - all this and much more has taken Shahid and his beautiful wife Lisa, to heights rarely achieved in the amazing world of Magic & Illusion. There can be no doubt why Shahid Malik is regarded as Britain's most exciting Magician and possibly the finest Escape Artiste in the World !
He holds 2 World Records for escaping from a Strait-Jacket : "The Fastest" - at 13 seconds, and "The Highest" - at 1,800 feet, suspended from a Helicopter !
His talents as a Magician/Illusionist are no less outstanding.
After being awarded "The MAGICIAN of the YEAR 85-86"and years of hard work in learning his profession Shahid's career has reached heights which are rarely achieved by a Magician or Speciality Act. The award led to the most prestigious invitation to appear in a Royal Command Performance for Prince Rainier in MONTE-CARLO at the luxurious Princess Grace Theatre. Since then Shahid has performed at several other Royal events for a number of prominent dignitaries, including His Highness the Sultan of Oman, Princess Margaret, President Zia of Pakistan, Princess Stephanie of Monaco and most recently "THE CHILDREN'S ROYAL VARIETY PERFORMANCE" at the Dominion Theatre, London, for BBC Television in the presence of Princess Margaret.
In Nov '87 Shahid Malik became the first Magician to appear on "LIVE from the PALLADIUM" (London Weekend Television) in the four years since the series began. And, in Nov '88 Shahid was invited back onto "Live from the Palladium" for the second successive year, and was the only British Magician/Speciality act on the series. Shahid's list of TV appearances reads like a TV Times listing ! - "Wogan", "Live from the Palladium", "Talking telephone Numbers", "Noel’s House Party", "Magic Special" (Paris), his own TV Special "All Tied Up", "The Children's Royal Variety Performance", "Beadles Box of Tricks", "Little & Large Show", "Tricky Business", "Abracadigance", "Wednesday at Eight", "After Ten with Tarbuck" etc. - the list is endless.
Proof enough of the quality, style & presentation that makes Shahid Malik Britain's most exciting Magician.
Shahid's brilliantly inventive mind and talent for creating spectacular Illusions has helped add a 'Magical touch' to some of Europe's (and indeed Worldwide) top Conferences, Trade Shows and Product Launches & Promotions. - e.g. Peugeot, McLaren Formula 1, General Motors, Japan Tobacco, John Player Special, Lancia Cars, Ford, Coca-Cola/Sprite, Philips, IBM, Cadbury's, Allied Dunbar, Crown Paints, Rowntree, Jordan Grand Prix, Bosch, etc.
For the launch of the Peugeot 309 at the prestigious Monte Carlo Sporting Club, Shahid changed a girl into a fully grown Lion (Peugeot's emblem/trade-mark) and then made the Car (the Peugeot 309) appear from no-where in the middle of the stage before an audience of 3,000 ! Recently Shahid launched "Sprite" drink in Ireland by making a giant "Sprite" can surrounded by girls appear from no-where before a specially invited VIP audience. The new Ford MONDEO was also given a magical touch for its recent launch when Shahid devised and presented an illusion whereby the Car appeared on stage 'Magically' for its spectacular Launch.
More recently Shahid has created and presented Magical illusions for the prestigious launch of the new Jordan Formula 1 Racing Car at the London Palladium, and, similarly for the McLaren Formula I Racing Car two years ago at the Alexandra Palace (London) where he appeared alongside the Spice Girls and Jamiroqui. Shahid’s job was of course to make the new Racing Car appear on stage for the first time ever.
When it comes to Magic & Illusion, Shahid has become the professional’s choice to create the Magic and mystery in top Stage and Cabaret Shows world-wide.
From the closest & most intimate Cabarets to the plush sparkling night spots around the World, and from the largest Theatres and outdoor arenas to the top TV Shows of Britain & Europe - Shahid Malik and his beautiful wife, Lisa, have mesmerised & entertained audiences the World over with their spectacular and highly original style of MAGIC & ILLUSION.
