Brian Zembic, nicknamed the Wiz (born 1961), is a Canadian magician and high-stakes gambler specializing in blackjack and backgammon. In the late 1990s, he became famed as "a man who would do anything to win a bet". A famous wager was in 1996 when he agreed to receive breast implants and keep them for one year in return for US$100,000 (US$210,000 in 2025). The year passed and he won the bet but he became accustomed to the breasts and did not choose to have them removed. Zembic was born 1961 in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. In the summer of 1996, Zembic was gambling in a high-stakes game when the conversation turned to breast implants. One of his friends, another gambler named Jobo, had the opinion that having implants in order to attract men was a crazy thing to do. Zembic disagreed and said that it was not a serious event and that the consequences were small. An argument ensued and the two agreed that they would enter into a wager where Zembic would receive breast implants and if he kept them in for a year he would win US$100,000 (US$210,000 in 2025). The two established a contract to work out the details.
