Who thinks David Blaine sold his soul to the Devil?

Have you seen some of the things he has done in his street magic? Holy Shiznit ! !

I have seen a lot of magicians in my day, but nothing like he does. I have been watching him on TLC this week, and some of the stuff he's done isn't humanly possible.

He ended his show last night by giving a bum a cup of coffee and right before our eyes he turn it to money.

I don't, maybe I'm one of the gullible ones.

Thoughts / Comments?

Or video editing. I was watching him play, Pick a Number with some random people on tv a couple nights ago. Yeah right, they're not random people, I say actors.

He does pull off the slight of hand stuff pretty conviningly but if you knew the trick behind them you end of thinging...."aww that's just cheesy".

Ever seen him "levitate" off the sidewalk? Lame secret to that.

I know that one.

I wasn't impressed with that trick.

He simply pulled the chickens head under it's wings and had a fake (or stuffed head) chicken head in his hand.

He is basically standing at an angle that conceals his one foot and tipitoes on the out of sight foot while keeping the other one level.


Link explaining it

I saw a show on Fox called secrets revealed. It shows how David Blaine does all his tricks. He's like David Cooperfield a great entertainer neat to watch.

I saw him in Vegas also. We managed to score seats right at the stage. Besides seeing his nose hairs that close you can also see how some tricks are performed.

Which one did he make her disappear on? If it was the one where he pulled like 10+ audience members, there was a black cape covering a small walkway. You could see the board flex with each persons step.
