Street magic is as fake as you can get. All magic is fake in a sense, but the whole point of it is to trick the crowd by making things that seem impossible happen right in front of them. That's the art of it. Street magic is mostly stooges, camera cuts, and even post filmed computer effects. It is no more "magic" than Darth Vader elevating someone. Anything is possible when it is just an edited video.

did you see him walk on the Thames??...I guess you are right to a certain extent there is no way of knowing how set up some of this is.. but what about the phone in a drink bottle.. and could he get that reaction out of kids???

I mean I know you are right....buttttttttt

he had set up a perspex walkway just below the surface of the water the night before ... the boats crossing in front and behind were set up by him and the pilots knew exactly where they could and couldn't cross without hitting the perspex.

well I can see that being the case but how do we know it was.. I mean if he did that too many people would have to know about it and word gets around......I would think..

I mean the Thames in the middle of the Jubilee?? he would have to have all sorts of permission..

sure, the same sort of permission they need when they shoot an add or a movie scene ... not that difficult to get .. Google it, Í had read about it previously, it's all out there

Our esteemed leader:
I hope that bitch who was running their brothels for them gets raped with a cactus.

No, that's too far fetched for me. Did you see the show from Rio? Different crowds everywhere and most of them don't speak English. The expressions on their faces are too real to believe they know about how it's done.

I'm not saying that everyone in the crowd is asked to sign confidentiality agreements.

The ones who engineer the illusions are asked to keep it secret though.

It's all done with careful planning, a few stooges here and there, and lots and lots of practice.

They're just carefully orchestrated illusions: this sort of thing has been going on for hundreds of years.
