haha that was amusing!
uber sweet
It wasn’t that great. It was hard seeing that awsome nurse with all the stupid magic going on! The cameraman should be fired.
Kevin James is excellent and inventive. As I’m writing this, I’m at the Abbott’s Magic Get-Together (a magic convention) in Michigan, so this is a good post to start off my week. 🙂
Not really an illusion. Just some sick individuals willing to remove whatever dignity some crippled people have left for their own benefit and fame.
Love it! 😀

Wha?????? ‘splain your statememt pls!
#5, Mike,
I agree. If people are going to use chainsaws, they MUST be responsible for the consequences. Honestly, chasing midgets or cutting up blacks does not qualify for responsible use of a chainsaw. It only takes a few instances like this before we will need to start registering all chainsaws and licensing operators.
Effem morani.
this illusion was like an episode of Ed, Edd and Eddy. The shit hits the fan th moment they start action.
@#5 (Mike)
Like it’s utterly impossible that this guy wanted to be in the act of his own volition?
Anyhow, the really slick illusion then is creating a set of anamatroinic legs that can support a person’s weight, walk, and even jump. That in and of itself is extremely slick.
the clip is from America’s Got Talent!, but the trick is virtually identical to one that Criss Angel did on his show. You can search YouTube for it. Can anyone explain how it works? I can buy that the top half would be someone with a foreshortened trunk, but explain the motion when the two halves are together? The legs are too long to belong to a little person, and the range of motion seems too free to belong to a pair of people balancing each other…..
We need to get Penn & Teller to look at this. I bet they can figure it out.
In case you haven’t seen the Criss Angel video, here it is:
You guys are sooo dumb… they are not animatronic legs. Those legs would have to be years ahead of whatt we can do now with human leg motion (do some research). It’s either a half person switched with a whole person at the end (why the mask and cap? because they probably do not look the same!). Chainsaws are dangerous, if you don’t know that then I call Darwinism if you are killed by one, and no one is “forced” to do this… my goodness. He was asked, he accepted, and is probably paid well. Some of you are seriously dumb…
I dont care how good an illusionist Chris A is, he cant hide the gay.
#13 – ok I see the trick now… stil pretty badass tho
Looks like magic to me.
