We like to be entertained by fantasy. I think most know what's going on. When I saw King Kong, I didn't really believe there was a giant ape on film, nor did I think Close Encounters of the Third Kind was a documentary. Hard to believe the public is as gullible as you seem to suggest.
When it comes to Magicians, the more realistic they are, the more
believable they are.
Just like with special effects.
Some people are more gullible - especially as children.
