Here's the website that says how to do David Blaine's levitation trick....and gives so info on how he did it.

This totally ruins the trick for you of course.

I saw his special on TV the other day and have been wondering.

I figured it out just by watching him, and I can do it. It's not that hard.

This isn't new to me, but it is interesting nonetheless.

Kaos · 01-05-2004, 07:54 PM

They revealed it on that Fox special a long time ago...Really ruins it for people, but it's sad how it was a blatant camera trick.

happymaan · 01-05-2004, 08:08 PM

What gets me is how it was an editing trick, not a camera trick.

I mean look at his biting a quarter trick. It's of course a fake quarter but on the show he has the quarter leave the TV frame for a bit....I have a feeling that's when he does the switch.

yeah, i saw this show the other day. i had read that he used that same method to fool people. i tried explaining it to a few friends, but they didnt believe me. it just looked too real a few times. now i know why. its a crock of shit.

This is fun, does anyone know any other sites that say how to do tricks?

Unga · 01-05-2004, 11:02 PM

I didnt know about the editing.
the card tricks are interesting. I wonder how he did those

I thought they showed blaine from straight behind on TV, not at a 45 degree angle?

Sapper · 01-06-2004, 11:55 AM

That "levitating trick" is incredibly stupid. I saw it and immediately thought .. yea, and next he will do that retarded "stretching the thumb" trick my dad used to do...

blaze · 01-06-2004, 08:31 PM

Hahaha I remember back in the day on the playground doing this to amaze my friends. Too bad they knew how it worked too.

The best trick is the one where you twist your hand in 360 degrees, now that one is real. Really.
