    Umm, yeah. Anybody that believes in magic has problems. The dude isnt magical, he's good at tricking gullible people into believing he is though.

    Give him credit as an excellent entertainer, DB, but don't try to give him some weird ass powers. Leave those to your Pokemon card games.

    The rising card trick, a strip of rubber band is prestapled to the back of a card and then he has a person pick a card, purposely keeping the rubber banded card unpickable, he then has the person slip the card into the deck making sure the card catches the rubber band just right, it takes skill to know just the right pressure. Then you release the pressure and the rubber band forces the chosen card to rise from the deck.

    His television shows, don't you think theirs some editing going on?

    As far as sticking the card to the window he could have easily done it prior since he has quick hands and then rushed into the restaurant making a spectacle so that everyones attention was on him and not the window or he had an accomplice stick it on swiftly just before he was to toss the cards.
    Coarse edged youth, the irish pendants string from their smiles
    not yet plucked as to slacken the seams
    and drag down the features of age,
    no folds or creases from unkempt wear
    eyes of tranquilty, crystalline-beads
    no sign of despair in their hair, nor their hearts
    but oh they have yet to be experienced and that makes aging so very worth it...ML circa2012

    Most of the tricks are edited for television. The levitation trick is done by filming a group of "volunteers" as they react and then digitally editing out the apparatus that is lifting him. Most of his tricks are bullshit with paid people and post production editing.

    Dont believe me? His own special on tv a while ago had a segment at the end that explained a few tricks.

    Hey i liked him too, until i saw the editing part. I know the tricks are slight of hand, but just splicing some footage together for a trick is beyond retarded. He goes in the no respect group for me. I watched the crane lift him, then i watched the director say now, and then a group of people react as if they were shocked. Then i watched them edit the footage on a computer. This was all part of his street magic special.

    btw heres most of his tricks
