Wonder boven wonder is a heartwarming program in which three mentalists surprise unsuspecting Flemish people. With a treasure chest full of secret techniques, Piet, Kurt and Stefan give people an improbable experience. With their tricks they create magic that moves, surprises or makes them cry with happiness. Every week an unknown Flemish person is put in the spotlight. He or she deserves to be showered with flowers and gets a day to remember. For example, a grandmother has not seen her grandchildren in Australia for three years due to medical problems; a student starts her university studies, but because she lost her mother during the school year, she has not found the time and space to look for a room; a couple in their seventies has taken in 65 foster children in their home over the past 40 years. Their stories deserve to be told. The mentalists give them a magical day. Because in Wonder boven wonder, nothing is impossible.

Do you pee in the shower? Have you ever cheated on an exam? What is your favorite deep-fried snack? And do you prefer wine over beer? Not too serious topics, but we can still discuss them for hours.
