WTF!? TV Host Attacks Magician By Setting His Face on Fire. (graphic video)

While appearing on a tv show in the Dominican Republic, Las Vegas magician Wayne Houchin was attacked by the host.  According to Houchin’s facebook, no, it wasn’t a bit;  no it wasn’t planned;  and no, it didn’t even appear to be an accident.   The entire incident was caught on tape and posted to YouTube.

 “I was not aware he was going to do this. This was not a stunt or part of an act – this was a criminal attack.  The fast actions of the rest of our Curiosidades team saved my life. The fire was put out and I was rushed to the emergency room.  I have bad burns on my head, face, neck and right hand. I am in pain, but am recovering. I will update you on the situation when I can.”

Houchin performs in Las Vegas and and also hosts a show on the Discovery Channel.  The video may be disturbing.
