Historia

Gérard Faier, known as Gérard Majax (April 28, 1943) is a French illusionist. He has appeared in many television programs, magic demonstrations, and movies. From 1987 until 2002 he, along with Jacques Théodor and Henri Broch of the Laboratoire de Zététique at the University of Nice Sophia-Antipolis, oversaw the International Zetetic Challenge. During the 1990s, on a late night television show by Thierry Ardisson Majax gave a demo of the "rotating table" supernatural phenomenon: a group of "randomly" selected people from the audience stood around a round table, put their hands on it, and the table went up and started rotating. Observation of a video recording made of this event showed that some participants had metal hacks hidden in the sleeves of their jackets. When the participants put the hands on the table, the hacks "pinched" the table underneath, allowing it to be lifted. In 2000, he created a new theme park attraction called The Hallucinoscope Source: Article "Gérard Majax" from Wikipedia in English, licensed under CC-BY-SA 3.0.

Self (archive footage)
In May 1974, Valéry Giscard d'Estaing became President of the Republic and wanted to bring about a new era of modernity. One of his first decisions was to break up the ORTF with the creation of three new television channels: TF1, Antenne 2 and FR3. Three new public channels but autonomous and competing. It is a race for the audience which is engaged then, and from now on the channels will make the war! This competition will give birth to a real golden age for television programs, with variety shows in the forefront. The stars of the song are going to invade the living rooms of the French for their biggest pleasure. This unedited documentary tells the story of the metamorphosis of this television of the early 1970s, between freedom of tone, scandals, political intrigues and programs that have become mythical.

Desde que asume la dirección temporal una serie de desgracias e infortunios le colocan en el punto de mira del Comisario de la zona, que sospecha que Vidal pueda estar relacionado con el misterioso robo de las cofres privados del banco hace un año. Precisamente Vidal es testigo del robo de uno de los cofres, como el banco no puede permitirse otro robo porque si no tendría que cerrar, Vidal, teniendo pruebas de donde puede estar la ladrona, va en su busca para recuperar lo robado en lugar de avisar a la policía. Lo que no sabe es que Jeanette y el Comisario también irán.
