Dutch designer, painter Mirin Dazho: biography, interesting facts and history

Mirin Dažo. The name of the famous Dutch designer and artist has little to do with his work. This person became famous for the whole world supernatural opportunities, including piercing through his own body.

Surprised since childhood

Arnold Gerrit Henske (since his birth was Mirin Dažo) was born in 1912 in the Netherlands (Rotterdam). Since childhood, the boy liked to draw, so the future life decided to direct it on the creative path. In addition to artistic talent, the young man felt in himself abilities that were inaccessible to other people. One day the young man painted a portrait of his dead niece, which he had never seen in his life, and later it became clear that the portrait was very similar to his mistress. Arnold also had an amazing ability to draw in a dream true works of art. During the morning awakening, the author completely forgot nothing and found out his creation only from the signature in the picture.

Over time, this talent passed, more than offset by the new extraordinary abilities discovered by Arnold quite by accident.

In a new life with a new name

Once a young man accidentally injured himself and realized that he had not done himself any harm at all. Subsequently, Arnold specially injured himself and every time he was convinced of his invulnerability. Believing in his extraordinaryness, Arnold at the age of 33 left design projects and moved to Amsterdam, where he began to engage in a completely different activity. His own name remained in his past life, he stepped into the new one by Mirin DiGeo, which in translation from Esperanto means "miracle."

The young man visited city bars, where for a moderate fee he offered the drunken public to slaughter him with any weapon. Some brave people, being a podshofe, agreed to a dangerous experiment and were very surprised by the invulnerability of Arnold.

Dangerous Experiments

Self-advertisement and word of mouth did their job: soon a strange visitor became the subject of discussion number 1 in Amsterdam and successfully replaced beer pubs at prestigious concert halls, collecting a large audience. For the complete success of the event, the former Dutch designer Mirin Dazho found himself an assistant, assistant, partner and friend in one person - Jan Dirk de Groot, with whom he worked all subsequent time.

Subsequently, the assistant asserted that Dazho had three guardian angels, suggesting what to do with the body and what not.

After the examination at the University of Leiden, Arnold Henske received a license for his unusual activities, namely, conducting sessions in the form of lectures (not shows). Mirin meanwhile got up things that they could not believe in the plausibility of: they pierced through their bodies with the help of various stabbing objects. And this without causing any harm to yourself. The number with the participation of the sword looked as follows: Mirin Daozho, who was bare to the waist, stood motionless on the stage. His assistant approached from behind and suddenly stabbed a meter sword into the area of the kidneys. The tip of the gun came out in front, there was not a single drop of blood on the skin. All this time, Dazho retained complete equanimity.

Perhaps this is a massive hypnosis?

One could admit the idea of mass hypnosis, but cameras and cameras fixed the same thing that the viewer saw. Sometimes the former artist-designer Mirin Dažo looked like a pillow for needles, since everything was stuck with knives, stilettos, darts, swords. According to Jan de Groot, the superman pierced himself about a hundred times a day, remaining unharmed. Sometimes, for greater entertainment, rusty or poisoned swords were used.

There were also such bullying: the assistant with a soldering lamp burned the hair on his chest or doused the latter with steep boiling water; Steam from the body, and the skin did not even blush. Some skeptics tried to make sure of the temperature of boiling water, put their fingers in it and burned them painfully.

Sessions of the unusual artist people perceived differently: many lost consciousness and fainted, there were heart attacks. Indeed, to contemplate, as someone mocks his body and pierces himself with swords, only a man with strong nerves could.

Mirin Dazho: the mystery of history

Extraordinary abilities of Mirin aroused great interest in the world of science; He tried to study professional magicians, physicians, biologists. The body of the Daojo shone with x-rays and was convinced of the actual passage of sharp blades through vital organs. When extracting sharp objects on the skin showed barely noticeable marks, immediately disappeared. Finally, Dažo battled the learned men, jogging through the park with a rapier in the body.

If the viewer could not explain the miracles that were happening, Mirin had his own version: there were certain extra-terrestrial forces that helped him. Dazho was convinced that it was not the blade piercing his body, but on the contrary: the body moves through the blade, and at that time he himself loses the physical essence. In other words, Mirin changed into another dimension, deliberately changing his physical characteristics.

Envoy of the Intangible World

Being in life the most ordinary person, during the performances of Mirin Dažo, the exposure of which was the dream of all professional magicians and magicians, as if entering a trance, during which his extraordinary abilities intensified. And fame and wealth were not the goal in the life of an extraordinary artist; Mirin Dazho tried to inform the world as a whole and each individual to bring information about the existence of another reality - the non-material. The artist believed that the first step on the way to it is physical invulnerability, an unshakable belief in the existence of a higher power working through Mirin and giving him invulnerability, and a rejection of the materialistic path of development leading humanity to wars, poverty and destruction.

How Mirin Dažo died

On May 11, 1948, during one of his appearances on a tour in Switzerland, the artist deliberately swallowed a needle, then, without surgical intervention, extract it. Two days later, on May 13, a seemingly safe operation was performed to extract a sharp object from the body of a magician, after which Mirin fell ill and slept. Jan de Groot with a calm conscience, having previously made sure of the stability of the pulse and breathing, left his friend at home lying motionless on the bed. There was not the slightest suspicion in the brain of Mirin's assistant, because the latter often entered into similar conditions. Upon returning home on the third day, Ian found the patient in the same position, but without signs of life.

Undiscovered mystery of Mirin Dazho

May 26, 1948, the world learned of the death of the mysterious Mirin Dazho. The official cause of death is a rupture of the aorta. However, neither the surgeon nor Jan himself agreed with this conclusion. Later, Ian said that his friend had a presentiment of his imminent death. Before the tour, he said that he would never see his homeland again. The experiment with the needle, which became the last in his life, the artist conducted himself, without an assistant.

Unfortunately, Mirin's phenomenal abilities of Dazho remained a mystery to the scientific world. If he was a fraud and manipulator, then very, very clever.
