Hans Klok (born 1969 in Purmerend) is a Dutch illusionist internationally known as the world's fastest illusionist, a title he earned by performing twelve illusions in five minutes. His career spans Las Vegas residencies, collaborations with celebrities including Pamela Anderson, and a 2014 Silver Clown win at the International Circus Festival of Monte Carlo - the first illusionist ever to receive that award.
Hans Klok was announced as the lead performer in The Illusionists, the international production by Cirque du Soleil Entertainment Group, which will be seen in Dutch theaters from November 2026.
During the summer tour of Hans Klok & Friends in Scheveningen, Klok was injured when a sword struck his arm during an illusion, but he recovered and the tour continued.
Hans Klok & Friends premiered on May 24, 2025 in Nijmegen and then toured through cities such as Apeldoorn, Ede, Scheveningen, Huizen, Dordrecht, Oss and Zwolle.
