So I found another magic trick that I just KNOW is easy to figure out, but this one is really well done. So lets start guessing what this guy did. Here is the video.

That clip is of Chris Angel from the show “Mind Freak” on A&E. Love the show.
Criss Angel is a little creepy. And his name is silly. At least he’s not as dopey as David Blaine.
I know how he does it.
He is the Lord of Darkness… beezlebubba.
Trap door in the back of the can? Usually the audience are in on these things.
he has gotten a hold of a time travel machine, what he does is that he does the trick and fails at first, then afterwards he jumps in the delorean or whatever model his time machine/car is (mine is a volvo), then he goes back in time and kills his parents before they have the chance to meet each other, he kills them with some slow death, like straping them to a powder keg but with a really long fuse, that way he can have enough time to get back in the machine, of course this has created a paradox, but he is unaffected by it because when is parents die he is surfing the time stream in wich normal logic doesnt apply, then while reality is changing and sorting itself out, before singularity strikes he goes to the future and tlks about what happened to himself he convinces him to come back with him, to the present, once in hte present he kills his other self, and burns him,he puts the ashes in a condom like they do to smuggle drugs and feeds it to “himself before the trick”, then he hides on the roof of the building, the “himself before the trick” hides in the barrel, stomach acid eats through the comdom, and his ashes are spilled, as you know the same item cannot ocupy the same space and time in reality twice, then he disintegrates hence the empty barrel, then he comes out of the roof. in case your are wondering he killed his parents just for kicks, and yes this makes no sense to you but it does to me since im drunk right now.
Could be the barrel he is in has a plastic cover right? Well if he was a contortionist have a “false” bottom, he opens it up and gets in there.
Or there is actually a trap door under the area which they performed it.
OR, he is still in the barrel adn the audience is in on it.
Him appearing on the roof top is a stunt double.
I’m David Blaine… Watch me levitate… Aaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh…
Or he just stole some weapon prototypes from Area51.
One word
Twins
the audiance will be on it, they will have so many ppl at the back of the box, so u dont see him as he is running away, or they are fake legs u when he is so called goin into the box
And the Earth spins. I’m sure that he ran between people’s legs when they were looking at the box.
That barrel sure seemed heavy when they flipped it back over the second time.
I do believe he is a twin. Hence the reason to have him appear on the roof…so you can’t see him up close and detect that he is not the same person.
The legs look fake to me too.
the people opposite to the camera are in on it. He crawls out through their feet grabs a hoodie so he won’t be recognized and then runs up the stairs there. Good enough explanation?
It’s because he’s a MIND FREEEEEEEAAAAK!!!!
There really wasn’t enough time to run up to the marquee, so it’s a double. Read the comments posted on that site. I’m pretty sure the guy who noticed the blue bag poking out the side of the can is on to the “secret”.
Are you discriminating against magicians dude ? Cuz if so i must tell you that i am a representative of the International Magicians’ Trust Commitee and so that i hereby blah blah blah ….
dude ! Commitee of International Magicians are very, very upset with you … dude …
You ilusionists have no jurisdiction here. Behold the magic of the internet wizards, for you’re just a guest here, stay silent, or suffer the wrath of the masters of the net.
Or, so they told me…
I like this little doohickie that automatically fills out my name and email on the comments. Great work Scott, its magic. WAZAH!
Anyway, the audience is in on it. At least some of them. The dudes in the back stand close together so you can’t see him running out, he moves only so far and waits. A stunt double is on the roof, far away as to not see his face. The magic dude comes back. Voila.
I remember watching a show on Discovery channel that was about a magician. He had a man on the inside of Cafe watch the victim has the victim withdrew a card and showed people. The magician then turned and threw the cards at the window of the cafe, and the assitant on the inside merly taped the card the victim was holding onto the inside of the window. You don’t catch it the first time, but you see the two people on the inside going through cards, as all your attention is focused on the Magician. After the magician throws the cards, you cant see the assistant because he is obscured by a blob of cards on the window. After all the cards fall, the two men on the inside are to calm and even for having a deck of cards thrown at the window next to him. Logic.
Tricks are for kids.
And you can’t even _eat_ magic tricks so…
Darnest thing !!!! Hear ye you mighty internet wizards !!! Are you a member of the association ? cuz you should know that the lads/gals at association does not like lone wolfs sticking out with no association by their side. if ye know what i mean. it is not wise to trick the association …
Well, we have a union…
CRISS ANGEL IS THE GREAtest.HE BEATS THEM ALL NOBody COMES CLOSE TO HIM HE IS NUMBER ONE., GOD BLESS YOU CRISS RITA LAZZARO
