Did any of you guys catch his special last night?
Beside standing on that pole for 35 hours and jumping off which is unbelievable two other tricks just blew my mind.

1. Standing on the street in front of a jewelry store he sees a couple and he ask the women to look at the display of watches
in the window. He asks her if she likes the watches and she notices that one of the watches on display was hers (The one that WAS on her arm) He says I'll get it and he puts a newspaper on the glass and puts his hand through the glass and pulls her watch out he then takes away the paper and the boyfriend then puts his hand over the glass and knocks on it and it is perfectly fine. :eek: :confused:

2. He sees a couple in the park having a picnic he sits down with them and he grabs an empty beer can next to the guy. He turns it over and it drips out a little. He then puts his hand over the top of the can rubs it a little. When he takes his hand away it is a full beer UNOPENED. He gives it the guy and he opens it and it spurts a little and drinks it and says it is beer. :eek: :confused:

There are many more amazing things he does.

I saw the special. Yeah, it was ok but I'm much more into his magic. That beer can was awesome, I'd never seen that one.
I dabble in a little bit of magic, mostly card tricks and a few slight of hand things. I've watched his dvd over and over again and I finally picked up on one of his tricks. The one one where you rub the ashes on your body to reveal the name of someone that the "victim" wrote down.

My favorite still has to be when he makes himself levitate. He has a book coming out on Halloween. In the book is a secret code that reveals where he has buried 100,000. Crack the code and you'll find a phone # to call to claim the $.

On the course!
I'll just wait for that other freak with the mask to reveal how this shit gets pulled off. It is pretty cool shit, though.

He does do some grazy chit. YYZ you may be right. The mask will show up and tell all.

the levitation trick is actually pretty easy to do, but it's still a lot of fun to see people's reactions.

You're right JS David Blaine is a freak.
