No idea but that was awesome

watch that kid that goes in the store (around 1:15 into the scene) and then he comes back out, hes in on it.

also, its all pre planned, which makes it very possible to do. heres a few things to think about..
1) weird how there was a perfect piece of paper in the trash bin, aye? :)
2) those 2 people holding the paper, both work for him.

he didnt walk through glass, the glass was removed ;)

I love trick photography!!

Smoke and mirrors..great illusion though

The glass is slid up so that the hole in it that's below the windowsil is behind the paper. The exit sign is there to make the glass seem like it hasn't moved.

remove half a glass? no way

:thumbsup :thumbsup

the window is much bigger than the window appears , after the paper is in front they slide the whole glass up to expose the hole, then he climbs through and the whole glass is slid down to hide the hole..

the 2 paper holders are obviously in on it

Editing is the magic... transitioning from camera to camera...

awesome! good question

magic

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

if that really happened people would be screaming and running away from him

that's insane

I watch that show every week. He's awesome and he seems really cool.

then why is the guy inside watching freaking out?

lol hes in on it maybe? :upsidedow

ah dont spoil it for me lol

oh please....if its a magic or an illusion thing why did he have to use a paper then..?

This guy is an actor who decided to move into televised illusions. He does exactly the same breathing noises before each trick, I've seen one of his shows. Good at levitation, too.

All television tricks and rehearsed audiences, naturally. Notice that he does not start saying "ok, continuous shot, no cuts" until after the paper is in place (there was a cut between the paper and him saying this) - covering the large hole in the replaced glass

:thumbsup :thumbsup

i agree

a rather bad illusion at that, very simple to figure that out. He should have a sit down with david copperfield and get some pointers

could be on it cuz he was right up ON the window when they came close to look at the hole he jus came thru

Nice visual, Smokey. :thumbsup

Yeah, I think he has people in on it just to add to the dramatics.

man is a glass freak

daaamn so you mean its not really magic ??? :(


people are so retard when it comes to illusions and magic tricks...the goal is to watch and enjoy...not to over analyse it...else its just not fun anymore....

-did you see that! a perfect piece of paper in the trash!
-Oh why did he had to use a paper if its REALLY MAGIC....
-blah blah...

we know its a fucking trick...just enjoy the show god damnit!

i saw that when it aired that is freaking nuts, i still cant believe it

fuck off :1orglaugh

cos it would be a pretty shit trick if he went "ok boss, ive moved the glass back down, you can remove the paper now".


:conehead

mindfreak is a shitty ass 'magic' show.. i cant believe its not cancelled yet

So your telling me this shit aint real?

holla at me a sec on ICQ yo got a ??? for ya

:Graucho

;)

all i have to say is if the mother fucker could walk through glass he wouldn't need a piece of paper to leave anything to the imagination.

Ever notice that his illusions are always executed on a closed lot? No one is ever around except for the small group of (acting students) people.

OK face the facts

if he really went through the window he wouldnt need the paper to hide the fact that he went through the window....the guy inside is an abvious plant he was in on it as were the ones holding the paper most likely...theres several ways it could be done but the most obvious is sliding the glass up to the point where a hole is in place then sliding it back down after he goes through...rather simple stuff really...I had a buddy was a professional illusionist I shot a bunch of his illusions....this is is close to one he did and almost all illusions are variations of a trick that gets updated every so often.

watch penn and teller sometime....they made it more fun

I used to to that trick years ago to impress the chicks. But all the scars on my face now from the broken glass scare them off.

BWAHAHAHAHAHA nice one... LOLLL :1orglaugh

its good yo

So that's primarily the reason why... :pimp
