NortonFan 0 Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 When I used to watch his show I would try and figure it out. Now I don't even try to guess. IE: When I seen the walking on water trick on T.V. I thought there was some floatation thing in his shoes, then he kicked them off. Link to post Share on other sites
ol'number7 0 Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 This guy's tv show is awesome. Anyone have any clue how he does this? Link to post Share on other sites
kidpkrJR 0 Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 with wires and people who are paid to tell them what they "saw" It was kinda like when David Blaine did his levitation, there is actual an illusion you can create to make it seem like your floating. He did that to people and they taped their reactions, later they hooked him up with wires and really made him float up high. Then they later piece it together with the reactions from the real illusion to him being lifted up with the wires.http://www.howtodotricks.com/balducci-levi...levitation.html Link to post Share on other sites
Wandigo 1 Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 Anyone else find it strange how each step he took made him left his legs up like a chicken or something? Long sheet of clear glass across pool = easy to walk on. It's also obvious that all those people are paid to say something, it's obvious in the way they tell the story that they're being fake. Criss Angel is a douchebag. http://www.howtodotricks.com/balducci-levi...levitation.htmlThe Balducci method is pretty easy to do and fun to impress friends with, but the one he did here obviously had to be something done with props, because he coudln't get that high on tippy toes.

Fubar The Sperm 1 Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 I've seen clips on the net where Angel actually shows how to do some of his tricks like the levitation one, some one should search for them. His levitation is different then Blaines. Link to post Share on other sites

eYank 0 Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 it kind of looks like he is being held up by some kind of wire on the water onejust the way he is kind of walking/floating Link to post Share on other sites
Suited_Up 2 Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 it kind of looks like he is being held up by some kind of wire on the water onejust the way he is kind of walking/floatingI thought about that too... But it's open sky above him. Link to post Share on other sites
dna4ever 2 Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 I thought about that too... But it's open sky above him.as opposed to closed sky? Link to post Share on other sites
dEv~ 19 Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 I'd say it's just a clear platform. Link to post Share on other sites
Suited_Up 2 Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 I'd say it's just a clear platform.What about people swimming under him? Link to post Share on other sites
dEv~ 19 Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 What about people swimming under him?not a solid block, but just a clear underwater bridge. So they could swim under.I don't know if I saw them crossing through the space that the platform would be taking up though. EDIT - right after the part where he takes off his shoe is the only time where someone might have crossed through, but there could also be a space in the platform. Link to post Share on other sites
Royal_Tour 0 Posted June 13, 2006 Author Share Posted June 13, 2006 Its 100% not a underwater bridge or clear bridge,look at 23 - 30 seconds in, notice his shoe sinks well into the water, and then the girl under him blows a bubble that pops right infront of himIts either wires, or he's clearly jesus.. 1 or the other.

Royal_Tour 0 Posted June 13, 2006 Author Share Posted June 13, 2006 its wiresthey never show a shot from a far, the side view doesnt angle up, and the only up shot from the water is very blurred and zoomed into his footprints.the other camera from inside the pool is also blurred from water splashes Link to post Share on other sites
dEv~ 19 Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 The only thing you can 100% sure about is that it's not real. Link to post Share on other sites

(Edit, Its actually at the very end of the 47 second mark, its a split second image1 frame flashes two objects in the right hand side.if u pause it correctly, u can see them, but its very fast less than half a second Link to post Share on other sites

(PRNTCSRN then paste into either Photoshop or Paint) (or ALT+Prntscrn to just capture the current active window, but you can crop out the video window later on anyways)BUTIn order for it to capture the image from the video, you have to turn your hardware acceleration off. Right click your desktop, goto properties, then click the Settings tab. Click advanced then goto the Troubleshoot tab and where you see "hardware acceleration," move the bar from 'full' all the way to 'None' then apply the settings.After you do the screen capping, you can turn the hardware acceleration back up.
