    I'm being serious.

    Do you all believe in levitation, astral-travel, psychokinesis and all that stuff? It's all so interesting but sometimes i can't help but think it's a hoax.

    Pseudo-science. It might not work, but it keeps your busy hands away from little children.

    chris angel is the biggest bunch of bullshit in vegas. i dunno, i wasn't really into him, but i heard that his shows cost almost as much as copperfield's magic shows now.

    I know it is all tricks, but I don't care. It's still fun to watch, and I WOULD pay money to see it. It's entertainment, and it lasts longer than throwing your money away at the poker tables.

    Cyril Takayama was my favorite magician to watch ... He did a lot of interactive illusions in public places ... I'm sure raver knows who I'm talking about. I guess the crowd reaction helps sell the trick even more ...

    he doesn't really do things to the scale of David Copperfield or anything, but fun to watch nonetheless.

    i think technology is incredible and tbh i reckon there is so much we plebs don't know that is possible and that is 'called' magic. if you think about how people years ago see how we live now, they would call our technology magic.

    I'm learning how to levitate objects at the moment. I saw a guy do it on the streets of Chicago I asked him how he does it and he said 50 bucks! So I youtubed it instead and found exactly how to do it. It's a cool party trick.
