    Circuit-bending YouTube star Bre Pettis doesn’t want you to know that before making his History Channel pilot, he hadn’t seen “The Prestige.”

    It’s not that he purposely failed to catch Chris Nolan’s 2006 adaptation of the steam punk novel about rival magicians starring Batman (Christian Bale) and Wolverine (Hugh Jackman).

    It seems Pettis never got around to it. And by the time he started putting together “History Hacker,” premiering tonight at 8 and 11 p.m., it was too late.
