“A lot of people have experimented with hidden cameras and magic before...” — Michael Carbonaro Quote

“A lot of people have experimented with hidden cameras and magic before. What I do, which I think is different from any other style of prank or hidden camera, is that it's all fun. It's back to that kind of fun that 'Candid Camera' was. It's not mean-spirited at all. It's a joyful kind of play with people.”

“I've always performed magic as a kid.”

“I'll order anything that has the word 'fig' or 'crusted' in the menu description.”

“So I was hugely thrilled that my first scene ever on camera was with Hal Holbrook.”

“When I chose to do 'Carrie,' I never had done anything on camera before. I was always onstage, so everything surprised me. Just going on set and walking into a makeup trailer and seeing Chloe Moretz and Julianne Moore - 'Wow, I am part of this ensemble.'”

“I hate watching myself on camera. I guess a lot of people feel that way, though.”
