NEW YORK (LALATE) – “Did Criss Angel die”? That will be the question viewers will state following an August 4 broadcast. A&E reveals this week that Angel may plummet to his death in the Mindfeak Season 6 premiere that night.

Criss Angel’s Mindfreak Season 6 revelations by A&E this week include a notable comment by the cabler. A&E warns local news that Criss will return this August, but could die in the first episode. “In his most amazing and dangerous demonstration to date, Criss attempts to jump the Grand Canyon on a high-performance hybrid motorcycle. He will either miraculously appear inside a locked cage dangling from a helicopter or plummet 4,200 feet to his death.”

“Did Criss Angel die” has remained a viral reaction to many of his notable previous season episodes. In 2008, the concern was whether Angel died during a car explosion stunt (pictured above). Kurt Angle said of that  car explosion: “It blew my mind, my nerves were shot. I thought it was a stunt that definitely went wrong. I saw him chained, I saw him in the car and saw him go over (the edge). I thought ‘Oh my god, this is a tragedy, something went wrong’.”

Criss Angel has said the following about his ability to cheat death: “Illusion is what you see. Magic is what you feel. It’s time to start thinking outside the box and let the art of magic live on in real life. I hope to be engaging my audiences by having them ask themselves… What is real and what is illusion? That is truly the magic of emotion.”

The August 2010 death-inducing episode is called Grand Canyon Death Jump.
