Zip wire

Maybe but what i don't get is how he was behind them and then ended up in front of them and to be fair pretty far away.

Amazing magician really, probably the best i've ever seen.

Thats what I thought. If it was a zip wire he would have needed to use his going through things trick because he would have zipped right through the people. Id also like to think id hear someone on a zip wire go right past me.

I really enjoy watching him do his stuff though. Hes like david blaine used to be before he got in a box and derren brown went OTT with boring long winded tricks.

Found it strange that the river police that pulled him out of the Thamesdid not want to investigate what he was walking on in a case it was a hazard. Obviously in on the trick.

Watched one of his shows and he was very impressive. How did he change the tattoo? ANd make the smoke appear in the glass under the beer mat? Very cool

Police on the thames would need to be informed he is recording there I would have thought.

If you think he's good, wait 'til you see Alternator...















Boom, bloody Boom...

Loved some of his tricks in Miami. The horn disappearance was impressive. How did he go from there to a different building. Has he got a twin?

He ran.

You'll notice that he wasn't actually visible the first two times he honked the horn.

My uncle used to work with one of the more famous TV illusionists. There's a simple formula to how these tricks are done.
You do a normal slight of hand/magic trick to an audience of people on the street. You get their reactions.
Then you splice in a video of a different impossible to do trick with their pre recorded reactions.

Also, actors. And lots of them.

This.

It's massively edited! The phone in the beer bottle trick is also a complete con.

his car tricks are good, his illusions are just bull.

you could see that the tattoo had make-up covering it before he "magically" changed it i.e he just rubbed the make-up off it.

seen that donr before by an american guy.

I wouldn't say it was a con as such as its a 'magic trick' and not a miracle. I would imagine theres a very obvious answer for them all but hes very good at them.

Yeah he was. You saw his head the first time then the horn the second. Sure that could be someone else but if he could run that far in 15 seconds hed make usain bolt look silly.
