He is able to read the thoughts of any person and guess his most secret desires. His triumphant performances make viewers believe the inexplicable. Bill Gates, Donald Trump and other billionaires, investors and bankers consult him. He calls himself a mentalist and deciphers this term as follows: "A mentalist is one who is able to manipulate the minds of other people without malicious intent, but for the sake of a beautiful show."
April Fools' miracles
A psychic, a telepath, a mysterious magician, a world celebrity and just a charming guy from Israel, Lior Suchard swept through Russian TV channels with a meteor, striking the audience with his phenomenal abilities.
Ironically, it was on April 1, 2014 that he became a guest of Andrey Malakhov, the host of the popular show. The entire broadcast was devoted to various tricks performed by a unique. To warm up, Lior bent spoons and coins with the power of his thoughts, guessed (blindfolded) which items were taken from the guests of the program. One of the tricks involved Andrei Malakhov's own credit card.
Lior said he would be able to guess the TV presenter's PIN number. But for everyone, Suchard wrote only the first two numbers on a piece of paper; the rest were shown to the TV presenter in person. To everyone's surprise, he guessed the code with absolute precision. After a successful trick, Lior handed Andrei a crumpled piece of paper with numbers, and the shocked Malakhov ate it.
Participants of the show “Voice. Children”- the charming Arina Danilova and the ambitious Irakli Intskirveli. They were also impressed by Sushard's talent. He was able to direct the girl's thoughts so that she chose from the entire newspaper exactly the word (and voiced it) that Lior had previously written on a sheet of paper.
As a guest of the White Studio program hosted by Daria Spiridonova, Suchard struck the presenter by guessing the name of her first teacher without much difficulty. He asked Daria to mentally imagine the lady's name in English transcription, concentrated, pierced the presenter with a sizzling look and uttered:
Promotional video:
- Her name was Jeanne!
“Before my performance, I always carefully study the audience from behind the curtains,” Lior admitted, “it doesn't matter if there are 200 of them or two thousand. Intuition helps me choose those viewers with whom it will be easy for me to communicate and work, who will not resist my attempts to penetrate into the world of their thoughts and desires. I scan them with my eyes, observe their sign language. If some viewer of the show has a negative attitude, then nothing will work out with him, he must be open to miracles, only then he will receive this miracle. I believe in reason and do not like skeptics. With increased sensitivity, I understand that this imposes certain obligations on me. The fact is that I can easily recognize a lie in a person's words, but I often hide it so as not to put the interlocutor in a difficult position.
Suchard admits that on one of his first shows, he tried to make the audience smile and joked, saying that the viewer sitting in the hall next to his wife was cheating on her, and his mistress was sitting in the same hall nearby. After the concert, the voluptuous came to the dressing room of the young showman and almost beat him.
- After this incident, I didn't joke like that anymore, because I understood the immutable truth: you need to be delicate and not put the audience in an uncomfortable position! - says Suchard.
Lior is traditionally open to communication. He told reporters that he was born 33 years ago and lives in Tel Aviv. He met his future wife, again, with the help of his unusual abilities. He got the girl interested by guessing her phone number. The candy-bouquet stage ended with a modest wedding in 2012.
When the wife was expecting an heir, Lior easily predicted the sex of the child, and an ultrasound scan only confirmed his prophecy. In recognition of his talent, his wife presented him with a ring on which is engraved: "You are my superhero."
Hidden opportunities
- I cannot explain how and why I can read the thoughts of other people. This gift manifested itself in my early childhood. As soon as, for example, my mother thought about something, and I already fulfilled her wish. When I felt that punishment awaited me, I safely hid and waited out the family storm! Already at ten years old I could move toys with the power of thought. The parents were asked to perform these tricks in front of the assembled relatives and guests. Even then I liked their enthusiastic applause! - Lior said in an interview.
In 2007, 11 months before the US elections, the famous mentalist George Kreskin predicted that the presidents would become a "dark horse." At that time, Barack Obama was not among the favorites.
Suchard is sure that there are hidden possibilities in every person. If you constantly develop intuition, use meditation, imagination, acquire new knowledge in the field of psychology, then you can easily move to a new level of perception. Lior's motto is: "You need to be the master of your mind every day!"
In doing so, he adds:
- I have made great efforts to develop my abilities inherent in my DNA. How did I do it? I read a lot, studied the experience of psychics of previous years, listened to music and watched films. By the way, I often watch the film "Ghost" with Patrick Swayze in the title role. This painting also taught me a lot!
Suchard's amazing shows are filled with music. It helps him to tune in to communicate with the audience and increases his concentration. It is no coincidence that Lior's favorite composition is John Lennon's Imagine. According to Suchard, imagination is the key that helps to go into the past or penetrate into the future.
- Imagination forms my positive attitude, - Lior admits, and in his book, which has become a bestseller in many countries, writes that human thought, the mind can be compared with a flashlight or a laser. The light of the flashlight is diffused and weak, and the laser beam is concentrated and is capable of not only moving objects, but also, for example, cutting diamonds. And a person (of course, with certain natural abilities) is able to turn this very flashlight of the mind into a wonderful laser. And then he will be able to bend coins with his gaze and do other, most diverse miracles.
Good magic
- To hear a person's thoughts, I need a clear concentration, besides, the object must be nearby. I need to feel him, feel his breath and aura! - says Lior and immediately admits that he tries not to use his gift in communicating with loved ones and behaves like an ordinary person at home.
American journalist Harry Black described Sushard's abilities after visiting his show:
“This guy has a phenomenal and inexplicable sixth sense. He's just great. Lior is the only one in recent years who could really surprise me. He really reads thoughts and moves objects (there are many different programs with his participation on the Internet), but every time he creates something unimaginable. Nowadays, everyone admires such people, people run after them in droves, take autographs and honor them as happiness to communicate at least fleetingly, and in the Middle Ages, unique people, soothsayers, fortune-tellers were either burned at the stake, or conducted devilish experiments on them.
It should be noted that the homeland of Lior - Israel - gave the world a whole galaxy of psychics and telepaths. And this is no coincidence. In recent years, magic has become an extremely popular form of entertainment in Israel. In addition, competitive TV shows are regularly held where psychics, magicians, fortunetellers, astrologers and sorcerers showcase their talents.
The winner of the most prestigious show "The Phenomenon" is Lior Soushard. After that, he could increasingly be seen in various television shows, and then the magician and convinced mentalist began to be invited on tour to other countries. And everywhere there were full halls for Suchard. Lior himself explains this by the fact that there is a demand for a miracle in society.
“It must certainly be kind and never evil,” the maestro is sure of this, “because there are so many negative emotions in today's world. They are brought by bloody revolutions, military conflicts, terrorist acts, natural disasters and aircraft accidents. And good magic allows you to get rid of these troubles and plunge into the world of enchanting illusions, into the world of childhood, when you believed in fabulous miracles, magical transformations and amazing metamorphoses! I am sure that my "tricks and tricks" bring people positive emotions, surprise and make them kinder!
