Landon Swank was a magician act from FantasyAGT: Battle of the Champions. He was eliminated in the Preliminaries.

Background[]

Landon Swank found his passion of magic at age 7. Swank finds himself captivated by creating a unique realm of magic and sharing it with others. An Alaskan childhood laid the foundation for Swank's vision. Audiences immediately take to his boy-next-door-personality while enticed into Swank’s world by a show filled with audience participation and laughs, as he presents his eloquent mastery of playing cards among various tricks.

Swank moved to Las Vegas to further pursue his magic career in 2004. The same year Swank was one of two magicians honored with the opportunity to represent The United States in The World Magic Seminar’s, International Stage Competition. The then 20- year-old is still the youngest performer to receive an invitation to compete in the competition held by “Las Vegas’ longest running and most famous magic convention.”

Pushing his talents further, in 2005 Swank created a television series entitled, “Landon Swank’s Alaska”. The series would feature several original illusions, including Swank’s walk across the water of King’s Lake. [1]

Preliminary[]

Landon Swank's preliminary performance in Episode BC01 consisted of apparently changing a two-dimensional vase into a three-dimensional one, and making a woman disappear by "folding" her like a piece of paper, leaving nothing but a red rose in her place to Jordin Sparks' "No Air." His performance was not strong enough for the judges to send him to Judge Cuts, eliminating him from the competition along with Shimshi and David Blaine, instead of Mat Franco.
