Ya of course he doesn't really do that stuff, but the fact that he is able to make it look like he does it is semi-impressive I guess. But I don't watch that show, it seems too drawn-out.

I wouldn't mind him so much if he didn't playoff as being some hardcore rocker with those gay music clips.

Magic is fake. The show is for entertainment. I think it's pretty obvious that it's nothing but an illusion. He's good enough to trick the brain and eyes. That makes him a good magician in my eyes.

i'd say it is ridiculous that people believe this guy to really levitate and all that other stupid stuff.. but then i remembered people believe in religions that aren't even on camera... and are more unbelievable.

if i cared, i would likely shed a tear for you all.

How can anyone even think its real?, anyone who thinks so is something other than crazy.

david blain is much better at what he does than mindfreak...

for example if u have pvr or whatever u can slow it down frame by frame.. mindfreak made a cat dissappear from a box... when u slow it down theres a quick angle where theres no bottom on the box..but u dont see it cause at normal speeds he quickly crushes the box and rips it up

then he makes a girl dissappear by putting a sheet over her... but when u slow it down he lifts the sheet up forever then when it comes down there is a balloon NEAR where her head was, doesn't even line up where she was sitting nor has the same shape.. then everyone acts all flabergasted when she dissappears, and all she did was run away while the sheets up.. all his random audience is in for sure...

then theres one where he climbs outta a sewer and walks around and complains how heavy it was and how he shoulda used his powers to move it... and he kneels down and rolls the sewer up like a poster... BUT when he orignally came out he scratched the **** outta the cement, then the camera lifts as he complains... then back down to do his trick..but wheres the scratches? now they're at the bottom corner of the screen as the actual sewer is just out of the shot and his poster layed by the crew is all set...

all his stuff is camera angles and he just tells everyone how hes gunna do it and to act suprised

as for blain.. i've only been able to spot one of his simpler card tricks and thats it i mean he brought a bird back to life, reached through a glass window, put a card selected by a cop in his boot, droped some chicks ring down a sewer then found it inside a mini liquor bottle on the sidewalk... pulled some chicks teeth out, which in slow were gone, u could see her tounge through the gaps and they were bleeding, pulled his heart out, burnt some chicks name into his arm without her tellin...and its just appears in 2 frames.... now im all worked up dammit

David Blaine's famous ice block trick was revealed a while ago on tv also , I'm not really going to explain it but it was pretty cheesy.

One cool magician that's really popular in Japan is Cyril , Most of his videos are on www.youtube.com , just search for Cyril. The stuff he does really is mind boggling , the best I've seen.
