Mahdi Gilbert

Gilbert appeared on the third season of Penn & Teller: Fool Us. He performed a version of the card trick Oil and Water, which fooled Penn Jillette and Teller, granting him a trip to Las Vegas to appear for the duo's opening act.

Gilbert appeared in the documentary Our Magic, created by R. Paul Wilson.^[3] He also contributed to the research of the book The Greatest German Living by Ricky Jay, which is about Matthias Buchinger, who was similarly born without hands or feet.^[2]

In 2018 Mahdi appeared on the BBC series The One Show.
