Someone explain to me how they do that shit. Like david blain always levetating(sp?) himself. I know it probably has something to do with cable suspension or something, but where are they? lol.

its just an illusion, aka either a play on your senses (sight), or misdirection.
Chris Angle has the best methods to date as far as I know. But its all still just an illusion. I googled it one day, and you'd be surprised how many people actually BELIEVE that he's levitating and doing whatever other tricks he does.

Yeah thats what i figured, but how the hell is floating over your head an illusion? lol. I still dont get how he does it. I know its not super powers or anything, but come on, how in the hell...I wanna learn. You would be the baddest mf'er everywhere you go if you could float over peoples heads lol.

i dont think flying in air from 1 building to another is an illusion. look at the shadow right before he reaches the 2nd building. and commmon man, walking on water!? the girl swam right under plus they video taped his feet from under. so yeah google it and if u find out how its done please let me know :) lmfao

Seen another guy at a bar that perfected it much like david blaine has. Its called The Balducci Levitation.
Its all about angle and perception.
Now the walking on the water and stuff, i have absolutely no idea.

11368, RE: Spoiler alert how Blaine levitates Posted by chronicshit, Jun-26-06 02:55 PM
yup that angle levitation is old. u just have to stand at an angle where no one will see u use your right leg to move up and down. i actually payed money 5-6 years ago to learn that trick when it was still new. but flying from 1 building to another, now thats something else.
*edit* btw midnite, remember me? i bought the turbo kit off u. should be done installing by tomorrow. wish me luck :)

for the water... clear plexiglass about 1/2 to 1 inch under the water?

honestly if you watch the one where hes walking on water at that beach resort or whatever, it really looks to me like he's suspended, and he's perfected the movement of his legs and feet on the waters surface. think about it... anybody just staerting out would have a lot of trouble keeping their body straight and their legs at just the right levels to make it appear that you're walking on water, but he's been doing this for years, and thats what makes the illusion seem so real... but it isn't perfect, his feet go different depths into the water as he's walking.
the building to building trick, who knows, but its probably still just some form of suspension.
edit: watching the water video, watch the part where they first go to his camcorder view of his legs on the water, it completely looks like hes just being suspended, the shoe hangs off his foot and he seems to almost lose it.

That is exactly how he did it. Think about it, no one actually went across on top of the water, just underneath. Thats how I figured it out, plus when he kicks off his shoes, they dont go straight down, they go off to one side. There was another one he did where he suspposdely went though a person with his hand, but once he put the person down, you can clearly see his arm come out from under the guys jacket. that one was easy to figure out as well, now i dont know how he levitates, but i would like to learn how he does it.
Great trickster tho

That is fucked up.
I know its just an illusion but if I was there in person it would totally freak me out. The best part is when her torso is crawling away.

11454, RE: Man pulls woman apart Posted by edxmon, Jun-28-06 01:12 PM
i think the plexi glass in on the second half of the "path". if u watch closely u can see he walks weird in hte first part, then he takes his shoes off before he begings to step on the plexiglass, so that they go straight down. i think them going to the side is just because of the movement of the water and physics of the shoes. just my 2 cents.
