    News flash, David got his ideas from Criss Angel. As for Criss, seeing him in action live is far more interesting than on tv. Him teaching celebrities like Corbin Bleu or even Tara Lipinski and Johnny Weir is awe inspiring. The number of times Criss was taken by ambulance for his magic far out numbers David Blane, meaning he is way more experienced than David in the realism of what he is doing.
    The levitation above the Luxor, that light produces more heat than a plastic box can handle. Putting a glass holder puts the panels on the hotel at risk of damage as well.
    One last thing about Criss, long before he had a camera crew and he became famous, he started out levitating his mother, balancing her on the tip of a broom handle as a teenager. His family provided the photos for his show Mindfreak season 1.

    • @melanieannplans2666
      @melanieannplans2666 2 месяца назад

      Yes! Exactly, it's the realism behind Criss' illusions that has always been fascinating to me. And his mom was always so proud of his passion and work he put into his craft. He also had segments on his show where he taught how to do novice magic tricks, like the disappearing salt shakers beneath the table.

      With catching the bullet, David had objects in his mouth to help. They did not show Jonathan Davis firing a gun and Criss catching the bullet with his teeth NO cup like David.

    Out of all the magic, illusions and mentalisms these two and many others have entertained us with over the years, Criss Angel did this one card trick that I still think about from time to time, where he threw a deck of cards at a storefront window with all of the cards falling to ground except one. The participants chosen card. The thing that I still think about is that the card was on the inside of the window.

    I wish adults weren't so mean towards the teens' reactions. There's a reason they're reacting to these videos - they weren't around and didn't get to experience them 'as they happened' like we did!
    Anywho, I'm stoked that this is a reaction episode for the younger reacters. I always thought Criss' showmanship was superior to David's, and both of them pushed their minds/bodies to the limit; and of course, Criss is in his own element with everything he put his body through over the years.
    I'd be REALLY interested to see the teens react to Criss' body hook stunt. It's not magic, it's not an illusion - it's literally taking his body to the brink of destruction (I wish that was putting it midly lol). Although, that may be too much for them because even 20ish years later it's still a lot for me to think about!

    I used to watch Criss Angel because I thought he was cool. 🤣 Never watched David Blaine.
    A good magician I would recommend is Michael Carbonaro from the show, "The Carbonaro Effect" on TruTV. I've seen his show a few times and he's pretty good.

    11:09 so sad that the Luxor is not going to be around anymore. 😢
    19:54 how do you not go with Criss catching the nail in his hand. Basically the same trick, except Criss doesn't get the catch, it goes through his hand.
    Also, should show them all The Amazing Burt Wonderstone 😂

    My theory for Chris levitation one is that there’s upward fan so strong that it pushes him upward.
