Magician Dustin Tavella on America’s Got Talent used mind-reading tricks in his audition to share a tear-jerking story from his own life. And the incredible performance is like nothing I’ve seen before!

Dustin starts out sharing that he is from Virginia Beach, Virginia as the crowd cheers. He seems like a kind and laid-back guy as he proudly introduces his wife and son. Dustin tells of his joy in sharing a combination of the two types of “magic.”

The first is the performance on a stage and the second is “when one individual makes a decision to positively impact another human life forever.” Dustin Tavella proceeds to have each of the four America’s Got Talent judges complete a task.

Heidi has a deck of cards to shuffle. She selects one card, then holds it secretly. Sophia has a calendar for the month of February and must circle any date. Howie gives a last name and writes it down on a piece of paper. Dustin has Simon write down any random time on a piece of paper. Lastly, he asks Terry to share “one inspiring word that sums up his heart and his passion.” Terry answers, “Power.”

After each task is complete, Dustin shares that he and his wife adopted Zander when he was two months old.
