  1. hmmm, wonder how he did that? that for sure was some magic shit lol noway that really happened to him. got me thinkin! lol

    ... sick video lol
     
  2. Reminds me of that one simpsons episode. Homer squeezes a penny into his blood stream rofl.


    Did anyone else notice it was on scifi?
     
  3. I just found that video but i've done a little research on him, his name is Criss Angel and he does live shows and performs tricks on the streets of NYC. www.Crissangel.com
     
  4. I kinda think it was fake, they kept switching camera angles and they never showed whether the arm it came out of was actually his arm (might have been fake)

    But who knows
     
  5. Now that is some SHIT!!! I need to learn that one!!! WOW!!!


    Thanks for the link Mils!!:)
     
  6. so fake, look at the cut he makes on the arm, it looks like plastic or rubber, and another thing, me andm y friends have cut ourselves just for the sake of it, that deep before same spot, with knives, and it bleeds much muchhhh more, and doesntg look anything like that...so i think the arm was fake or something im not sure what was fake but something was, of course thats the whole point of the illusion but i saw threw it,m even thoug i dont knwo how it did it...i cant type whe n im high at all fuck
     
  7. yeah, it looks fake

    but it looked pretty cool too :)
     
  8. where's the blood?
     
  9. I agree, i think it was a fake arm and the 'audience' was in on it. And yes, more blood wouldve made it more believable, and bro dont cut yourself for shits and giggles.
     
  10. yes opivy, plus the blood didnt even look real, as little as there was
     
  11. sooo fake he just like slashed his wrist/forearm and he gets no blood......hmmm
     
  12. those other people were bad actors. if i saw someone cutting themselves id just walk away.

    and did anyone else notice how gay that guy looked. lol.
     
  13. I saw that show the other day, it was wierd but... Theres a trick to every illusion.
     
  14. i saw 2 episodes of his show.. one he lit himself on fire and the other he levitated the entire episode

    the levitation was actually clear, with wide range shots (unlike David Blaine who uses camera shots of audience reactions then has stand-ins while they lift him a foot on the air in the same spot at a different time.

    the audience is always in on it. their reactions are so fake and rehearsed. think about these for a sec. as an example, there was one where he made a voodoo doll, made the person turn around and then burned it. the person felt the burn in the exact spot where he lit the doll. this is impossible UNLESS the person was in on it. voodoo is religion, not a miracle.

    and the levitation thing, anyone notice how his feet wobble when he moves? he's most likely hooked up to a wire (D'UH!), but more specifically, the wire is most likely attached to his hips (and if not the lower back), which would explain the wobble in his feet.

    then he levitated backwards (back to ground horizontally, feet on ground like Matrix bullet dodging)
    this looked KIND of real. he even used some guy's cane (who happened to be there just cuz) to check underneath that there was nothing supporting him, but he didn't check ALL of it. he could have also used a strong leg brace to support his weight but then he lifted one leg so i dunno

    all i can say is the audience is ALWAYS in on it even when you think they can't possibly. even when he lit himself on fire, they used a trick by using his mom to be there witnessing it so that you get the impression that she can't mistake him for someone else but then he just becomes the fire extinguisher guy at the end.. the guy in the hoodie looked nothing like him.

    that's all i have to say about that for now
     
  15. yeah.. isnt he gettin a show on t.v or already one on t.v on discovery or somethin
     
  16. I went to his site and I watched the times square garbage video, and that would be NUTS to see live. Just nuts.
