Two Truths & a Lie: Shoot Ogawa
When he was a teenager, during one of his first TV appearances, Shoot was nervous about the camera operators trying to figure out his tricks during rehearsal. So, he only showed them part of the routine and held back the ending until the live performance. The ending was a bottle production that went great, except for one problem. He produced a Coke bottle and the sponsor of the show was Pepsi.
Shoot has been a full-time professional since graduating highschool at the age of 18. For the first seven years of his career (prior to moving to Los Angeles), Shoot performed or worked on magic 365 days a year.
Shoot has performed in over 50 countries and for many actors, celebrities and dignitaries, including the Prime Minister of Japan Shinzo Abe, Johnny Depp and the creator of Fleetwood Mac.
REVEAL LIE
#2 is the lie. Shoot gave himself one day off per year. It was usually January 2, and the first time he did it, he wasn’t sure what to do with his spare time. He went into his office to tidy up and found his other colleagues were also not sure to do with their time. They spent the day laughing and eventually jamming. So, technically, it was really a half-day off.
