Mizzou went on to win the regional, becoming the first #4 seed ever to win an NCAA Regional.

Aaron Crow (danger act)

Ronny Verbeke (born 12 February 1969), known professionally as Aaron Crow is a Belgian mentalist, magician and swordsman, perhaps best known for his appearances on talent shows including Britain's Got Talent and Le plus grand cabaret du monde. Crow is a member of the internationally renowned magic septet The Illusionists, alongside fellow magicians Dan Sperry, Kevin James, Philip Escoffey, Mark Kalin and Jinger, Jeff Hobson and Andrew Basso. He generally remains silent during his stage performances, which has earned him the nickname "The Silent Mentalist."

Early life

Crow's official website states: "At the age of three, Aaron was rushed to hospital with a needle stuck in his throat. It was a frightening experience, although luckily he made a complete recovery. On his twelfth birthday, Aaron's parents gave him a book about the legendary Harry Houdini. From the book, Aaron learned that Houdini – the greatest showman of his era – used to perform a famous routine in which he swallowed many sharp needles."
