    he's one weird dude. last year he starved himself for something like 44 days in a glass box outside tower bridge in london. when i went up to see him, i saw people trying to hit him with golfballs, quite funny really.
    but yeh some of the stuff i've seen is pretty weird and i don't have a clue how he does it. i really do think that magic shows on tv are just great and you get loads of them on at this time of year! :) :)

    I got a great pdf from glenn on how to do his magic tricks. I wish I still had it. I know how to do the levitation one, and the one where he spins his arm all the way around.

    They're all illusions, appart from the whole endurance stuff, but the "magic" is in how belivable he makes it. A master indeed :D

    I think he sold his soul to the devil.
    Why?
    Because when he was trying to guess a number he was looking at a ladies eyes and saying
    "Give it to me".
    I dont think god would give him this gift.
    Magic/Vodoo, i believe is a sin.
    And Neo, if you ever get that pdf file back, would you mind sending it to me?
    Thanks.

    He is definitely a master entertainer.

    There was an individual called "The masked magician", who broke the magician's code and revealed several popular "tricks". Browser search him if you're interested. It is as, if not more, entertaining than the real stuff.

    Also, Penn and Teller are infamous for debunking "magicians" that claim to be real.
