However, there's nothing stopping hundreds of independent eyewitnesses from doing so.
And yet we have found NO evidence of that, of eyewitnesses saying things like "Yeah I was there when CA's production crew were setting up their props, invisible wires, harnesses, cranes, completely invisible plexiglass platforms, hot-air balloons etc".
Why? Since he does these feats in such public locations, the setup/teardown involved would be impossible to hide from the public.....

Fame and fortune await the person who conclusively proves Criss is using props and film trickery;
You have been show multiple instances where footage has been spliced together from two separate attempts at the illusion ( Factory levitation watch the man on the ground, he is only in one of the two shots from the same time period.) and yet you claim they are not changed.

If the film has NOT been changed to represent an event in a manner that is not consistent with the event as claimed then the film is legit. Simple.
As to the nonsense about clothing, Criss can wear a suit of armor for all I care; the FACT that there is NO way for the event to have been staged is telling enough. Criss does not always wear a jacket; in the desert the temps drop quickly at night and so naturally anyone would dress accordingly. Many of his events are shown with him wearing only a shirt and pants; what excuse do you have for THOSE events? Hmmm? Oh yeah, the film trickery that no one ever exposes..riiiiight.
Still no one has mentioned the explanation for the no continual shot of the area above CA as he levitates? Cmon, give it stab at least.
I hope that your alternatives in the future have more substance than what we have seen so far. As it is, we can assume from the evidence that Criss is for real

Explain if you can just how you think Criss managed to do the golf course levitation since there were many stunned eyewitnesses and no props shown or possible. If you cannot even guess with an intelligent and likley response, then you have lost the battle and should retreat: continued insistence on holding to a faulty logic is just embarrassing and those with an open mind will dismiss your comments as utterly without value.

I believe mental powers exist, such as the QuiGong (spelling?) etc, but you can't use your belief in them as an argument in this debate. Just because you believe they exist, doesn't mean Criss Angel has them.
His JOB is to make you believe what he does is real. He is a magician, you aren't meant to be easily able to work out how his tricks are done.
I won't post again in this thread after this, because trying to talk to Paul_Richard and co. is like talking to a brick wall... covered in sound-proof concrete.

It is intellectually dishonest to continue to deny and reject the available and pertinent evidence

Back to film editing to hide the props and paid off witnesses. That is really all I have heard. The posts above that talk about totally different events and splicing film that has NOTHING to do at all with the events in question are nothing but a straw man .. yet again. It is silly.
