Scott Hammell
A leading example of the importance of having a dream and then having the courage to turn that dream into a reality. That's Scott Hammell. Scott has travelled the world as a magician, hypnotist and motivational speaker, sharing his experiences while performing heart-racing stunts.
Hammell is a three-time Guinness World Record holder who has been entertaining professionally since 1998. At just 18 years old, Scott was featured on Ripley's Believe It or Not for his "Escape to Cloud Nine" stunt. Its success awarded Scott his first Guinness World Record for the "World's Highest Suspension Straight Jacket Escape", landing him numerous television appearances and launching his professional career in entertainment.
In pursuing his dream to be an inspiring entertainer, Scott has become a master of overcoming obstacles. Whether suspended in a straightjacket or free flying through the air, Scott uses his performances to talk about conquering your fears, following your passion and overcoming the impossible.
Hammell gives his audiences much more than sleight of hand. He shows how the most ordinary of people can use whatever gifts they have-even juggling-to change themselves and change the world.
Rave Reviews:
"We could not be more grateful for Scott's support for our agency. Children and families frequently inquire if he will be entertaining at our next event. He brings out true enthusiasm in the kids, and has all adults in the room captivated and impressed. I'm not sure who loves the show more, the kids or our staff!"
Big Brothers Big Sisters of Kitchener-Waterloo and Area
"Your hypnosis show was remarkable! Throughout the school year, the individual residence hall councils and university councils have attempted to create some solidarity within the first year population of the university. Your performance garnered more dropped-jaws and laughter than we've seen all year! Your professionalism, your humour and your kindness are always welcome at McGill! We look forward to working with you in the future."
