- jermo, on 10/11/2007, -4/+668That's not even an especially clever trick. It's like a glorified version of the "walk down the stairs behind the couch" trick.
- Lumiras, on 11/01/2007, -20/+452Magic is all misdirection, so this is nothing new. If you actually believe Criss Angel has magical powers, you are an idiot.
That being said, he's a really good illusionist and he is very, very skilled in misdirection. I know magic is all smoke and mirrors, but I still enjoy how quick and sneaky magicians are - Conwaysb0718, on 10/11/2007, -3/+246Criss is gonna be super pissed when he logs in today and finds this.
- dsendecki, on 10/11/2007, -27/+246I wish he could make this comment system disappear...
- isseki, on 10/12/2007, -4/+191I drove down the street the other day and VANISHED around the corner.
It was my awesomest trick ever. - roadtripper, on 10/11/2007, -6/+134you mean . . . it wasn't magic?
- ScornForSega, on 10/11/2007, -20/+142I dunno.
For example, I'll watch Penn & Teller on stage, on TV, whatever. They use the magic tricks to emphasize a point.
This ***** and David Blaine are just cheesy. It's not entertaining, it's crap. Hell, they could tell you your car is magic and you'd believe them 'cause they'd never let you see what's under the hood.
And where does one acquire a group of ***** so cheesy that they run around high-fiving each other after a successful right turn?
And Criss Angel does posses powers... the power of unlimited douchebaggery. - mozzep, on 10/11/2007, -1/+75http://www.duggmirror.com/television/Camera_angle_mistake_reveals_Criss_Angel_s_secret_picture_story/
- Kunnalingus, on 10/11/2007, -9/+78the real magic trick is how he's dating cameron diaz.
- mccarron, on 10/11/2007, -0/+70The Magician's Alliance is not going to be happy about this one.
- danielrh9, on 10/11/2007, -5/+73There's a reason these guys are referred to as "illusionists". Most of Criss Angel's "tricks" are about as lame as they come because he simply uses camera tricks to sell his illusions.
- logicon, on 10/11/2007, -8/+71*phew* For a second there I thought some guy with long hair wearing mascara was actually defying modern physics. Thank goodness for such illuminating articles as this one.
- roastedbagel, on 10/11/2007, -9/+68Woops
- joshhan, on 10/11/2007, -4/+54Maybe his magical powers will make digg disappear.
- Klowner, on 10/11/2007, -1/+43If you like misdirection, check out Derren Brown. He once paid for a diamond ring using money-sized blank pieces of paper, no camera tricks involved in mentalism stuff.
http://youtube.com/results?search_query=derren+brown - oddmanout, on 10/11/2007, -0/+40the first thing i did was watch the video, thinking i was going to be like "how did he do that? i'll read on to find out" Instead I was like "where's the trick, he just drove behind that wall" Next up, Criss Angel pulls a quarter out of a 5 year old's ear!
- StrangeFamous, on 10/11/2007, -4/+39I want to know how he did the rooftop levitation... anyone know?
- 98acura, on 10/11/2007, -18/+53God make these ***** ***** comments go away!!!!
- SlackerCS, on 10/11/2007, -1/+35It would have been better if he had come back with coffee from the warehouse for Pam.
- Twinked, on 10/11/2007, -8/+42Maybe he can make this comment system disapear! Now that would be MAGIC.
- emehrkay, on 10/11/2007, -2/+34whoa, you're a what?
- Ninjab3ar, on 10/11/2007, -16/+45Well, as a matter of fact, I know ALL the secrets to ALL magic tricks as soon as I see them. And i love telling people how lame those tricks are because Im SO AWESOME at spotting it out.
- jwolcott, on 10/11/2007, -2/+30Dude, that one was obvious without TiVo.
- draculthemad, on 10/11/2007, -2/+30Everything Chris Angel does has like 50 camera takes. My favorite is when he "walked on water".
During the course of the stunt, you can see how wet his jeans are varying back and forth. It looks like whatever cable he had holding him up dipped him in the water and they obviously edited it out. - dheaddy, on 10/11/2007, -6/+32In other news, the Tooth Fairy is actually your mum and Santa is your dad in a red suit and beard.
- MacGyver2210, on 10/11/2007, -0/+26A physicist posted a 'debunking' video on YouTube about how he did the rooftop-to-rooftop levitation. It turns out, through the way he swings when he first steps off the roof that you can calculate the angle of the cables he was suspended from and whatever he was suspended from was about 140ft above him. They also show where cloning tools and video effects were used to replace the wires with clouds.
- ripstuntz, on 10/11/2007, -9/+33WTF?? Magic isn't real? I'm pissed.
- fdiskit, on 10/11/2007, -2/+25@Conways
"Criss is gonna be super pissed when he logs in today and finds this."
Yeah, I bet he turns the OP into a newt . . . or something else that weighs less than a duck . . . - tom2275, on 10/11/2007, -6/+29Magic in front of a camera isn't magic. Its called "special effects."
- MacGyver2210, on 10/11/2007, -0/+23Dear Sir or Ma'am:
Thank you for your interest in being cool and using a pop culture reference. Unfortunately, since you don't seem to be able to use the reference of "Hey Everyone! He's a Phony! A BIG FAT PHONY!" correctly we will not be able to accept you into the group of cool people at this time.
Sincerely,
Other Cool People - sogracefully, on 10/11/2007, -0/+22he floats atop his own self-satisfaction.
- BrainInAVat, on 10/11/2007, -1/+23That's nothing. Once I was walking down the street and I turned into a drugstore.
- diegoferreyra, on 10/11/2007, -2/+24can someone mirror the images please? I can't see anything from photobucket at work.
- swizzcheez, on 10/11/2007, -1/+21Really? This one took camera angles to figure it out. The stunt itself, at least from the video, looked pretty obvious as to how it was done. Now if he did this in the _middle_ of the parking lot without surrounding obstructions, then I _might_ be impressed.
He does some good tricks, but this wasn't one of them IMHO. - adcat, on 10/11/2007, -0/+20Wait, so Criss Angel has a magical staircase behind his couch too? I'm confused...
- Urusai, on 10/11/2007, -0/+20No, he was actually walking on water. They edited in the wet pants stuff to throw you off. DON'T BELIEVE THE LIES 1!!!!!
- minorthreat, on 10/11/2007, -0/+20That seriously didn't look real at all, you could see he drove behind the wall in the video.
- washingtonydc, on 10/11/2007, -2/+21mind explosion!
- febryle, on 10/11/2007, -1/+18A trick is something a whore does for money!
- drakenlot, on 10/11/2007, -5/+23"Didn't really do it? You're a fake! Hey everbody! He's a fake!"
- lrf2005, on 10/11/2007, -1/+19"It's an illusion Michael, a trick is something a whore does for money....or candy"
- EmperorAwesome, on 11/05/2007, -1/+18It's the final countdown!
- kree, on 10/11/2007, -1/+17Could've found this mirror quicker if digg's comments system wasn't so ***** up.
- jwolcott, on 10/11/2007, -0/+15I thought that guys visual explanation was more clever than the actual trick.
- AndrewDB, on 01/10/2008, -9/+24Anyone care to show me how he got squashed by the bulldozer? I'm a card carrying member of the International Brotherhood of Magicians and I still can't figure that damn thing out and haven't had the chance to ask him about it...
- bysin, on 10/11/2007, -0/+15Here you go
http://youtube.com/watch?v=vFvetRFj7A0 - Dolomite, on 10/11/2007, -1/+16LOL, i hear ya man, digg was the best at version 1.0.
- A14049752, on 10/11/2007, -0/+14Ripping the girl in half is easy. There were two people, the bottom half was a contortionist that was folded over...the top half was an amputee.
- radish01001, on 10/11/2007, -0/+12Wasn't working for me so:
http://www.duggmirror.com/television/Camera_angle_mistake_reveals_Criss_Angel_s_secret_picture_story/ - phunlee, on 10/11/2007, -1/+12Criss has made a huge mistake..
