    I guess this magician claims he can speak to the dead and is a psychic and Criss Angel called him out. Needless to say, the magician did not take too kindly to that

    Phenomenon sucks. Most of these magicians suck. The rest are just OK. I'm not a fan or Chris Angel, but he was right to call that guy out. That was the worst performance in a contest of bad performances.

    jim guy was milking his act a little but still was pretty good.

    Don't know why angel did that. I would challenge him to having me run over him with my car right now and i'd give him a million dollars

    Chris Angel is an ass ! He claims to do the same garbage......calling that guy out was classless, he was doing a great job of building the drama.

    And Fatty should be God fearing...

    :D

    As a God-fearing Christian. I loathe psychics and their "claimed" abilities.

    I actually like Criss Angel, though. Despite the debunkings at the end, his show rarely goes into all the psychic babble.

    Thats hilarious, Criss Angel knows all his stuff is fake but people know he is fake.. This guy is saying he can talk to the dead like that John Edwards, it's a crock so I'm glad he's called out

    Though if I was that magician or whatever he was, I'd call Cris Angel out to do something IMMEDIATELY then the world can see no-ones for-real. That would have been GREAT

    I think the difference is that Criss Angel doesn't claim to have any paranormal powers and states that he is an entertainer and illusionist. This guy says that he can speak with the dead.

    Yeah, but it would have been great had the guy asked Angel to do his "Levitate in Mid Air" trick right there

    That would make for good tv, two guys calling each other out.

    I thought it was funny that he not only called out the contestant, but also the other host who claims psychic powers too.

    Criss Angel= Deuchbag.

    It's all fake, it's all misdirection and showmanship. Why call this guy out? What a punk.

    Its fake? No way!
    That guy was acting like its real, like he can really communicate with the dead.
    So because Criss Angel can make cool illusions that makes him a deuchbag? :confused:

    It's not cool in my mind when you claim you can talk to innocent people who have been dead for over 20 years like this guy claimed, and then go further and claim he's going to come back in so and so years.. Oh yeah and claim he says this and this and this.. just to get an extra buck in your pocket and give entertainment?? Thats not cool, thats why John Edwards isn't cool either, let the dead RIP if your a fake

    It's not cool to use dead people to your advantage like that if your a fake, if its for-real its cool but this guy is an obvious fake

    You guys should check out Derren Brown. There's a bunch of his videos on myspace and youtube.

    Here's one of my favorites :
