I looked up and saw the oddly tall figure of one Dedy Corbuzier. At first glance he seemed no taller than the average Indonesian, he turned out to be at least 180cm. Dressed from head to heel in his trademark black blazer and turtle-neck, black jeans and boots. A bit strange seeing a man dressed like it’s the middle of winter in the Jakarta sun. Although it would’ve been surprising seeing him in anything else.

The pasar minggu gothic make-up made it, obvious. The sculpted widow’s peak of his carefully shaved hair-line barely passed the center of his scalp. Not to mention that geometrically (painted on) beard, which was more reminiscent to a scene from the movie Signs than something that would be on some ones face. Overall, it a look resembling the penguin more than other magician or illusionist.
