The Shape I'm In: 'mind magician' Keith Barry

Mind magician Keith Barry powers through the day on as little as four hours’ sleep a night. Given his profession, you’d expect him to point to magic as the source of his extraordinary energy levels but, no, he says it’s all down to the genes he inherited from his father Ken, who he describes as a “businessman, entrepreneur, and party animal”.

“I get a lot of my resilience from my dad. He set up a lot of companies... he’s an amazing character and has strength of character. I probably get [my drive] from him and even the entertainment. He wasn’t a magician but he was a singer all his life — especially the early days,” says the 43-year-old Waterford native.
