I saw the video the other day and almost posted it, I'll try to locate it.

He gets wayyyy higher than DB and it's really good video. I think he was a good 2 feet off the ground.

There was a thread a while back where a few skeptics really went off on this guy, saying all the stuff he did was fake, etc. This was one of the parts they said was the least believable, yet nobody has been able to disrpove what video showed.

I mean, when they guy's doing things in the middle of Fremont Street, either its straight up or he's the best damn fake-out magician in the entire world...ever.

Fake? Uh, yeah, unlike real magic. Of course it's fake. There is no debating that. Are you really suggesting that he has the power to defy the laws of physics and break the rules of gravity? Of course not.

How do you expect anybody to disprove this from some crappy video? It's quite convenient that all of these levitation vids he has on his show are from like 20 feet back and have the worst angles ever.

You also seem to think he couldn't have people assist him in his routines on the streets. It's also great that the audience members he interviews after are the dumbest people alive.

DAMN!!! Ya'll see that muhfucka float! [censored] was like BLADDAOW up in the air n [censored]!

[Camera pans left to enormous-breasted blonde]

Like wow! It was like, one minute he was like, sitting and like, wow!

Of course it's real.

Criss Angel can defy the laws of physics because he's all goth and stuff. [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

The way to fake people into thinking you're doing this must be the absolute best-kept secret in the world. We're talking Area 51 shite here.

All the vids are from 20 feet back? Clearly you didn't see the part right in the middle of Fremont Street out in front of Binions where he levitates a woman from the audience. Or the part in the park where they do the same thing and the shot is from no more than 3-5 feet away.

Maybe some laws are meant to be broken. So basically, until someone can prove that its NOT possible to do this...well, you know.

Before you get started calling me ignorant, whatever, yeah, I know all the Newton's laws and gravity, all that stuff. Maybe there's just some laws that aren't quite 100%?

EDIT ADD: Yeah, for all I know this is just some fancy illusion, but I can't come up with any way things like this are even close to possible, and its certainly not just camera angles and computer editing.
