Chris Angel

[Overload]

so let me get this straight......the car was a hologram?  Or was Criss Angel the hologram?  Everybody saw the cab pullup from right off the street, and everybody saw that it was Criss Angel standing there, talking to everybody.  Don't see how a hologram could pull that off.

engine was in the rear of the cab...watch it in slow motion, when he sets the front of the cab back down there is "zero" bouncing, the shocks absorb nothing and it is stiff as a board. now go jack up the front of a car and set it down as quickly as he set down the front of that cab. you will see that the front of the cab was lightened and probably didn't weight over 500 pounds, if that.

he works with illusion and tricks...no magic involved. EVERY one of his tricks is prestaged and setup. when he walks down the side of the building you can frame by frame the picture and see the cable.

Well I guess I'd just like to know how he did it....He gives plenty of other people a try at exactly at what he does...there are no strings, now wires, and there are plenty of witnesses.  I don't see anybody else that small deadlifting the whole front end of a cab.

He also levitates. Are you saying he has invisible wings?

Pretty good for a magician:



He also "deadlifted" a cab on his show Mindfreak
Quote Angel, "I just started working out 6 months ago"
People were in awe. 

Yeah, he works out with True Adonis and he's NATURAL

See you don't need drugs, just six months of natural training and deadlifting taxi cabs!

That chris angel guy is even more bullshit than Blaine. Fuck i dont get whats so awesome about david blaines stunts. HE JUST SITS THERE ON A CHAIR FOR A WHILE. jesus whats his next stunt gonna be, staying in his room for a whole month??

K back to Chris Angel. His show is more fake than the ninja turtles. That hovering over a building thing. fuck theres like a crowd of MAYYYBE 10 poeple watching him.  Like obviously he cant hover but i mean hes not even trying to trick the poeple in the ''crowd". the whole show is no more real than a soap opera.

oh, and GOD what a fag. Chris Angel is gayer than calling just to say 'hi'

how did he fly from one building to the next...over 100 feet in daylight in front of many people...Most of his illusions are done with holograms...Some say holograms were used to make it look like planes flew into buildings....These holograms can make anything look real....Thats why this guy has about 50 people working with him....

A good friend of mine who lives in LA was paid to be an audience member on one of Chris Angel's Mind Freak episodes.   He didn't meet Chris Angel, but instead, he met with the Production coordinator for the show.   He was given instructions to "oooh, woooah" at Chris Angel's stunt when directed.  He was with about 10 other people who were also paid audience members for a trick involving disappearing objects.   It's actually true when Chris Angel says to an audience before a trick "have I ever met you before?"  Well, the fake audiences employed by Chris Angel in some of his stunts never meet Chris, they meet the Production coordinator.    My guess is that the trick where he hovered over a building also involved paid audience members acting like they were witnessing something amazing.   Off course what you don't see is the boom crane on the left side holding him up by small wires.  It's not a cooincidence they filmed the building hover trick on a cloudy day, as a backdrop of clouds helps to hide the appearance of the small wires on his harness.

You really like him don't you Mike?   Maybe Chris Angel will make a special guest appearance at your home and he can strip you naked, cover you in honey, bend you over and show you how he makes his magic penis disappear.

As horribly gay as that sounds, I may contact him for a price quote on that.  Does he do birthdays?

There is much discussion in the magic community regarding whether or not Criss Angel is using stooges and "camera magic" and I tend to believe that he is. Some of his levitations are simply too over the top for me to believe that he is not using stooges and/or camera magic, and even some of his close-up is suspect.  
He does have some brilliant minds working with him, however.
