That's funny as hell is what it is. If you can't figure out how he does it, though, you're a real moron. It's amazingly simple.

OK, agreed, probably too harsh. I should've said if you can't figure out how he does it, you're not a creative thinker.

That said, this trick's success is 1% in the "secret" and 99% in the execution. That's what Copperfield does so well is perfect execution.

But if you know how David Blaine "levitates" on an open sidewalk, then you know how Copperfield does this trick.

Most of the best magic "tricks" involve simple (if any) props and LOTS of practice. That's why making a helicopter disappear doesn't impress me. Making a coin disappear out of my own hand impresses me.

What that kid does in that video is like 10% of what Copperfield does in his. I mean assuming that's how he does it, then he's pretty well contorting his body or there's more to how he does it. I mean seriously take another look.

He is old school but David Blain is where it's at.

Is there a video about how he does the levitation trick? Or is that as simple as just having strings and a crane nearby?

[fatfoo]

This is the best eye trick, for anyone who knows what I'm talking about.

Strings and a crane. Why would you need that, when the secret to that trick isn't in the air, it's on the ground.

[VeriSexy]

Damn cool...

I was hoping that people would post their favorite "magic" trick/illusion
