Hong Kong magician Louis Yan: 'I love doing things with pigeons'

Hong Kong leading magician Louis Yan has a way with pigeons, beyond the usual trick of making them disappear. His talent for doing strange and innovative things to pigeons, such as transforming them into a small burst of fireworks or a pipe, has won him awards from international competitions and applause from local audiences. 

Louis is the first person from Hong Kong to win the Abbott International Magic Competition in the United States and the Hungary 6th Joker Magic International Stage Magic Competition. We caught him backstage after he performed his award-winning pigeon routine at TEDxHong Kong for a quick chat.
