Something went terribly wrong Wednesday while rehearsing a stunt for Magician Criss Angel’s new magic show, “The SUPERNATURALISTS.”

As seen in the video, Angel had to rescue another performer, Spencer Horsman, when he started to drown during a magic trick.

Horsman is an escapologist who competed on America’s Got Talent. He is seen in the video floating motionless inside the box filled with water. Horseman was rescued in time and is now recovering from the ordeal.

Angel postponed the premiere of his show two days to Friday night.

In an effort to ensure the safety of the cast and crew, and all those involved in the production of The SUPERNATURALISTS, we will be moving both opening night shows to Friday, June 26th at Foxwoods Resort Casino when the audience will experience a revolutionary, mind-blowing show that will prove just how real magic can be. From June 26th – July 23rd the show will make you question what you see with your own eyes! -Criss. | #CrissAngel #MagicRevolution #Supernaturalists @foxwoods
