  I accidentally come across Channel 5 last nite showing a person performing magic on streets and do a 24 hr stunt submerged in water. He is called Criss Angel Mind Freak. I was thinking those stunts he is doing seem to be what David Copperfield is doing. Think he will be the successor of illusion magic? I think there is another one called David Brains or something?
  
  David Copperfield got teach disciples? Hahhahahaa.......

  I think there is a difference in their style in portraying magic. Criss Angel seem to tread the path David Copperfield did whereas David Blaine seem to be more as it is street magic. So comparing them aint a fair debate. Maybe it should be David Copperfield vs Criss Angel?
  
  I always wanted to know the levitation tricks they did especially since copperfield days where he demonstrated floating in mid air!!!!

  Criss Angel is more of an illusionist..David his tricks are lame,all so simple one.. And the levitation trick is done sideways,dun beleiev what you see on the tv, camera angles plays a part,He's actually just tip-toeing on the blind leg.My cousin is a professional magician,they dislike david but they think Criss Angel is revolutionary.

  Criss Angel's presentation of his art pieces is alot more appealing than David Blaine's one...
  
  And yes... The levitation thingy is a simple trick of eye angles....
