Start the video with the words typing quickly... "On Dec 17, 2020, Dan Chan "The Millionaires' Mentalist" performed 12 shows in a day, 8 shows back to back on the half-hour. That week he did 52 shows..."
(pause)
"Now he’s looking to do the biggest magic show in the world. This show will be held over Zoom with 500 interactive seats and will broadcast to 100,000 view-only attendees, setting a world record Zoom broadcast (pause, perhaps larger text) and he wants you to be a part of it."

I need a concise yet readable version typed out quickly for a YouTube ad, aiming for about a 3-second read time.

      No it should be on the bottom of the video that has me performing for Mark Rober. The logo should be overlay when I'm performing for him.
