that stuff was so stupid. i was hyping it, thinking hey its gonna be good but i was so let down. 2 much padding inside the boxes and it seemed like there was a poll he was leaning on. LOL now the levitation trick is genius! *standing on one foot!* heheh h i'll stick to watching david copperfields fancy but easily explained trickz.....
Doug Henning's more my speed.... lol. "Anything's possible in the world of illusions" No, Blaine's vertigo thing was just a test of endurance, no magic or illusion involved. I tell ya what though, that guy like catheters or something... he used one for his ice trick and he used one again for this pole standing thing... What was cool was his street magic. The "empty then full beer" was good. The "concentrate on the wine glass" trick was cool. The "your watch was on your wrist and now it's in a jewelry store window" trick was neat-o. eh... he's entertaining, looks a little like Chris Cornell too...
Did you guys see the "turn coffee into coins" trick he did during one of the street segments? That was just freaky! No camera cuts, no hiding techniques. They just showed the coffee turning into spare change. Now, how the HELL did he do that one?? Also, that reaching through the Jewelry store glass was just...damn, that was cool.
The snake eating thing was cool, but I knew he had something up his sleeve, did you see the sleeves?! They were all the way past his wrists. Probably had a fake licorice snake in there. 80 feet is about 3 stories? I could do it.
I can't explain it, but man that was a cool illusion. Basically he went up to this homeless guy sitting on the sidewalk and took his hot coffee, removed the lid, placed his hands underneath and on the sides of the cup, slowly the coffee level decreased to reveal a cup full of coins!! That was one freaky illusion!!
you blew the joke, man! i used to make this one ALL-THE-TIME, only, i used david copperfield: what's copperfield's greatest trick? making claudia schiffer's taste in men disappear. (josie's so hot. check please.)
Generally (architects, building engineersm correct me if I am wrong) 10 feet is one story, therefore 80 feet would be 8 stories.
i could do what blaine did. i can do half his tricks. lol the beer 1 i cant explain or coffee. But The One with the watch was a lil mirror he had and it was a reflection of where he ahd it palmed. And then the newspaper was 2 show u he hadnt reached his hand in there jus inside his jacket 2 get the watch. I can float 2
