The point is if you can spot the trick quickly , its not very "magical"

Doesnt mean he "doesn't" use camera tricks or fake audience members.

What factual evidence did you use to come to this conclusion ?

I know alot about magic, which actually ruins it for me sometimes when I am watching because I know alot of what they are doing, but his tricks are executed with such perfection, 90% are almost impossible to figure out. It is not always what you think!!
That would be assuming your smarter than the person your making assumptions about prob not the smartest way to start

If he is performing for an audience , then his appearance makes all the difference.

He simply has trained himself on how to overcome pain and make his body do things unimaginably.
Superman talked the same smack , it don't make him any more real.

Talk is talk and thats all it is.. If he has trained himself to overcome pain , he should start boxing.
