From boiling grease to swinging axes and spinning saws, Italian escape artist Lord Nil doesn't just flirt with danger--he lives it!
In this gripping episode, we dive into the mind and mythology of this daring performer, who rose to global fame on Americas Got Talent and is now preparing for his most dangerous show yet- one that fuses ancient symbolism, real life peril, dances and the dark pull of the Seven Deadly Sins.
But behind the chains and fire is a story of discipline, resilience and an Italian soul rooted in centuries of theatrical and philosophical tradition. Lord Nil shares how fear became his training partner, and how growing up in Italy and other countries shaped his sense of danger and pursuit of freedom. If you are craving real-life escape, take a listen.
