Magic tricks || Jonathan Goodwin
Jonathan Goodwin (born February 20 1980) is a British TV escapologist, and brother of journalist and TV presenter Jane Harvey. He first appeared on Channel 4 TV programme Dirty Tricks and has subsequently appeared in TV specials The Seven Stupidest Things to Escape From, and Deathwish Live.
His signature is “lo-fi” escapes where he is apparently helped by his dad.
Goodwin caused a national outcry when his stunt, Cheating the Gallows, went wrong live on national television and he was hanged. Luckily he survived, suffering only minor rope burns.
Jonathan now appears on Channel 4’s Balls of Steel perfoming similar acts to what he did in Dirty Tricks
