Have you ever heard of resting grumpy face?

When John van der Put started doing professional magic, he quickly discovered that he was naturally "too grumpy" to be a magician. He just couldn’t keep himself from insulting his audience. This was a huge problem until he made one simple discovery ...

He was a dragon.

Once John decided that he was actually a dragon (and started dressing like one), his grumpy demeanor and salty comebacks began making sense to his audiences. Although people don’t enjoy watching a grumpy man do magic, they love watching a magic dragon do comedy.

Now, John goes by his stage name, Piff the Magic Dragon. He was a fan favorite on America’s Got Talent, has millions of combined views on YouTube, and is currently a resident performer at the Flamingo Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas.
