One of only 50 living sword swallowers in the entire world, Roderick Russell has been described as strangely sophisticated, successfully blending suggestion and psychology with his own personal mind-over-body techniques to present a show that bravely pushes the limits of the possible - both physically and mentally.

Presenting the most dangerous and bizarre feats with wit, charm and style, Roderick also deftly navigates deep into the minds of the audience to create the most personal and profound type of theater experience. Call him a sword swallower. Call him a mind reader. ABC News calls him a "rare find."

Guiness Book of World Record's and Ripley's Believe It or Not both praise him. National Public Radio says that it's "the strangest...event of the month, and perhaps the weirdest of the rest of the year". A bold, risky show - but what else would you expect from a sword swallower?
