| Criss Angel walks on water at Lake Mead
[youtube]0C5tS3N0STs[/youtube]
How does he do it???
He did it once at a pool, some people said that there was a layer of glass or plexiglass under him, and that the swimmers swam under the glass to create make the viewers thing he is actually walking on water, but this is a lake.....

Criss Angel is a fucking joke...
obviously magic is just an illusion and not real, but he hires actors to be his crowd and "witness"! his "magic" is only good for video cause every one of his "witness" and crowd can see how he did it.
Using camera angle and video editing is not consider magic... |

Did he grow a beard and long hair to look like Jesus for this stunt?
EDIT: By the looks of it, there's probably a crane and suspension wires on him lifting him up. Can't explain, but if you look, the way he moves suggest he is being held up by something.

I watched this on TV 10 minutes ago, and then came on RS and saw this
But yeah I wasn't all that amazed. There's always something to it.
Still, it's fun to watch, that's for sure

I don't see why people get so worked up over this kinda stuff.
In the end, it's just entertainment. Why rake your brains and ruin the entertainment value trying to find out how it's done? |

there are transparent pexiglass tubes sticking out of lake bed which he stands on. and the last one is actuated so it can go down. the position of the sticks are predetermined and he has to take the exact same step slowly to avoid missing the tubes.

The "swimmers" are actors who go through specific cutouts in the ramp (that he steps OVER) and can swim under it basically anywhere.
