What does the panel think?
All looks pretty obvious to me - just slight of hand, basic psychology and some willing collaborators

Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson -

It's entertaining and his tricks are very professionally done. He does the sort of stuff that David Blaine used to do before he thought it was clever to sit in a box or block of ice for days on end.Originally posted by Ruprect View PostComment

I enjoyed it. Very much like Blaine, even down to the jolty cameras and close ups. I just hope he doesn't use stooges; that feels like cheating.
I'd like to know how he did that one with the tattoo of the eye last night. Clever.Qdos Contractor - IR35 expertsComment

I love the card tricks and sleight of hand stuff. You know it's sleight of hand, but you just don't know how he does it.
For the bigger tricks, he must be using stooges and camera tricks because they are so impossible, you know that's what they must be and that spoils it for me. The tattoo trick, film name on the side of the cinema, teleport trick from one building to another etc are all examples.
Great showmanship of course, but for me, too obviously done with stooges and/or camera tricks.
Another thing that has annoyed me, he's done one of the card tricks in 3 different shows of this series now (the sign your name, put card in your mouth switch) and the matrix style, bending over backwards trick in each show as well.Comment

It's the mobile phone in a bottle one that has me stumped. Very impressive.Originally posted by jmo21 View Post"Being nice costs nothing and sometimes gets you extra bacon" - Pondlife.Comment

Clearly the bottle is fake, but again how he does it is the bit that annoys me.Originally posted by DaveB View Post
Is the person he takes the bottle from a stooge? If so then it was always a fake bottle, ANYONE could do that.
or, he somehow switches a real bottle for a fake bottle for the trick - now that is impressive.Comment
