I won't spoil anything.

And I urge you not to read the comments section before watching the video. Do not skip or fast-forward. It's worth it.

That was awesome!

Very nice presentation, a bit slow starting, but great illusion.

Woah

Saw similar in London last week I put a thread up on spooky ,very clever.

Nicely done and pretty gutsy to go for the slightly prolonged weird intro, given how impatient those judges can be. All four Xs would have made a poor sound track to his sudden surprise.

Hmmm...so what does he do for an encore?

My son and I were so amazed, we laughed out loud! Not laughing at him, but that we were fooled so badly with his set up and character.

IMHO at least one of the judges was told to "hold it". Not that they werE not surprised, but most definitely the TV crew helped him reach the most perfect setup for maximum effect. They knew it would be a big success and boost the rates.

Pretty unique for me,but definitely could have lost his chance with such a slow weird beginning.

I had an idea where this was going, based on the set up.

But when he did that face when he levitated, I started crying I was laughing so hard.
Then the serious face afterwards. I love it when someone can "sell" it like that.

It was quite hilarious and I have tears in my eyes still writing this.
Lol. It was good, don't get me wrong.

I just also find it down-right funny; the amount of Metaphysical Terror that rippled through that audience. I have no idea if the humor was intentional though.
I think Fabio is on point here.
They allowed the crazy intro because the "pay-off" was so over the top.

landmark has a point too, where does he go for an encore?

This is pretty awesome- does anyone know where the plans to build this illusion could be found?

For this particular Rendition? Probably on his personal notebooks.

Very clever way to present the illusion isn t it?
gutsy & different always pay off in tv show!
thanx for sharing this.
