.. I would say it would be impossible to do.. he has thousands of people at some of his events.. that would be a bigger feat of magic,,, than the illusions he performs.

I dont know how you can call him mediocre.. he is winning all the top awards for best illusions of our time.. what more do you want ?? and there definitly not camera tricks... they are illusions.. not magic.. or paranormal.. just tricks.. and damn good ones too.. the best Ive seen.

Have you not read this thread? Please just go to youtube and search. If you do not like those revelations of camera trickery...well then the one that made national tv a few weeks ago is good enough. Camera tricks all over that huge building demo stunt and it was revealed on no less than 4 shows just that I saw the next day. How did you miss it?

Anyway...let's see..who did I vote for in illusionist of the year or whatever top awards you say he is winning all over??? Oh, I did not vote, I was an election official making sure it was a real clean contest. Wait that is not it either. Oh...I know...it is all show business and he is the new david blaine? The problem is that magicians that really do illusions have fallen by the way side in lieu of this camera trickery.

I guess it is going to be hard to respond if I am neither reading this thread or on ATS or on my computer or home.

Are you trying to tell me that you did not see one show cover his implosion trickery? The 'live' cameras in the building that had very inconsistent shots with each other? You did not see that or hear about it ALL OVER THE MSM?

Which events would those be?

His live show at the Luxor, "Believe" can seat a maximum of 205 people

His Luxor Light levitation definitely did not have "thousands of spectators"

So which events did he have such high turn out for exactly?

Im willing to wager that most of his events have relatively few spectators for the rather public appearance of the stunt.

Look we've been over this in the last 130 pages already. Come on, he's a rich illusionist, thats it.

yeah.. I watched that implosion illusion.. but I didnt hear about any news stories that said it was all faked.. with camera tricks??? in fact I cant find any news articles about camera tricks being used in his act??

Perhaps you can watch the news story that I posted and get back to me on that.

she is saying that its pre-recorded after the time he goes thru the second door.. so all that time he was fighting with the lock at the trap door to the roof.. was just taped footage. The argument is a pretty good one.. especially if he made claims that there would be no camera tricks involved. you got me there..

Perhaps if you paid attention to what I said... I said this was done using pre-recorded footage. I only said it about 5 times though so I can understand why you missed that. If that is not the camera trickery you want, then too bad. It is camera trickery. The stunt was done with the audience watching old footage while he pulled off his little stunt. Now I have explained it twice, I hope you can get it this time. That is NOT an illusion, that is a tv show.

thanks for the info:

Trailer

Just select the Magic series premier, the quick clip of the stunt in question is about 16 seconds in. Looks like we will get an expose on one of the corner stones of some of the arguments.
