Horn's performing career ended on October 3, 2003 when he was severely attacked during a show at the Mirage in Las Vegas by a seven-year-old white tiger named Mantacore. Horn died on May 8, 2020 at the age of 75 due to complications from COVID-19. Fischbacher stated that "the world has lost one of the greats of magic, but I have lost my best friend".
