Magician Julius Dein is not your average student.

When he is not studying for an international relations degree at King's College London, the 21-year-old is performing magic tricks at celebrity parties in Hollywood.

For the past six years the former JFS student has juggled exam revision with his passion for conjuring. With a deck of cards and sleight of hand, he baffled scientist Stephen Hawking in Cambridge and Nelson Mandela at a London fundraiser.

Studying in Los Angeles for a year, he was called in to entertain singers Kelly Rowland, Katy Perry and John Mayer. He has even tried a trick on comedian Russell Brand.
