  • 2 people need to go "Bump in the night"

  • Love the effect , also who wrote his music ,its really catchy:-)

  • I love how everyone is an "expert" on Doug Henning and his illusions. LOL - Want to know some facts about Doug Henning and his unique brand of magic?

    I suggest reading "Spellbound - The Wonder-Filled Life Of Doug Henning", written by John Harrison (a friend of mine). He did a GREAT JOB detailing Doug's life. It also has some GREAT TRUE STORIES about the "behind-the-scenes" magic as well! Do a search, you'll be glad you did. - Makes a great gift, too!

  • The Million Dollar Mystery is how the tiger was produced, but the idea on producing three bumps under the cloth comes from Servias Leroy called the Three Graces. He used a tall cabinet with a pole in the center. A far cry from the large rainbow box Doug used.

    Doug was good at using classics from the past and putting his own spin on it. I too saw this live and it was spectacular.

  • Actually everyone is wrong and correct on who invented this. Thurston didn't invent the Million Dollar Mystery. It was designed for him by his staff based on a P.T. Selbit idea. Thurston, just like every magician like Doug and Copperfield, used an illusion team to come up with and build all of the tricks for the upcoming season.

  • ive done that trick before

  • 3rd bump was near failure...

  • What a fruit! Great magician though.

  • I sa Doug perform this in Detroit also. I seen his act live twice he was GREAT. I also loved his live TV shows, that takes some guts.

  • Actually this Illusion was invented my Howard Thurston... MANY years before Doug Henning, It was originally called Thurston's Million Dollar Mystery... :-)

  • Did you know Doug Henning INVENTED THIS ILLUSION! Never published it in print, so almost everyone else who does it, D.C, Sigfried&ROY ect... is coying Henning!

  • This Guy is AMAZING , (:

  • Damn!Y is it that all the GOOD PEOPLE die young.I have no doubt Doug is in a MUCH better place,but call me selfish,i just wish the world(okay ME)could of seen a little more of him.

    Mr. Henning,you were...ARE the best magician HANDS-DOWN!Loved your joy and childlike spirit.

    YOU'LL ALWAYS BE MISSED.

  • ..."Doug is in a MUCH better place,but call me selfish"...

    You're right! Your ARE selfish!

  • Its great to see Doug's videos here - thanks!!

  • now i know where cris angel gets these tricks from

  • Classic Doug Henning presenting his version of the Million Dollar Mystery, "Things That Go Bumop in the Night". He certainly changed the face of magic.

    He most certainly is missed.
