"wtf" moment for me was when the girl's torso was pushing the table. i keep asking the same question in my head "how the fuck did he do that?"

Costume. The table was thick enough to have the girl bent over and the rest of the body hidden in it.

The guy with the goblet was kind of sloppy. And the girl in the box that was skewered as well.

@ 3:50, the assistant in the pink gave the trick away that there was a hole at the top of the box. Otherwise, all the other illusions were pretty good.

For the 8th illusion at like 3:27 you can see that the magicians shadow kinda gives the trick away when the assistant pulls the curtain.

I always wondered how these kind of "appear/disappear with big cloth" illusions are done.
There are so many different variations, but I'm sure they all use a similar principle.
now if I can only figure out what that key principle is...

I watched that live also. Was blown away. I couldn't resist googling to find out how he did it:

Basically the tiger was lying flat in a hidden compartment on top of the box. When the drape came down, the floor of the hidden compartment lowers using ropes. As it lowers, the girl inside lays down flat on the bottom of the box. Eventually, the girl is lying flat on the bottom and the tiger is on top of her.

The girl who appeared behind the judges was an identical twin sister, wearing a copy of the jacket (that's why he asked him to remove any belongings from his pocket).

Brilliant.

You guys should watch "The Masked Magician".. his TV series shows you how most of these tricks are done...

really? but if it's a copy of the jacket, wouldn't piers recognize that the jacket is not genuine or is not his??

Yes, most likely. But why ruin a good illusion on TV? Besides, both jackets would have been his - one that he wore, and the backup jacket all TV hosts will have in the dressing room.

Erm so what? That doesn't explain how he did it? At 3:40 it clearly shows that there is a hole at the top of the box?

So clever, if you watch in HD, it seems like the sports coat isn't the same when its returned to Piers.

...why is that giving it away? You can see the hole at the top of the box the whole time. She sits straight up in it a moment before.

And you can see the top of the box the whole time. Nothing happens there.

If you train him to lie on his side, sure.

The most impressive thing in these magic tricks is the engineering of the props, IMO
