Something to do with the highly polished clear plastic plank just under the surface that you can JUST see in a couple of shots.
 
Yeah you can just about see the plank, also his feet are going under the water too, so he's not even walking on it.

You forgot this one too:

hahahaha, yeah, well...I will let you work that one out for yourselves!
 
Ever heard of an amputee?

If she was cut off at that part of her body, there would be no more living person. You need your lower intestines and such, plus your liver and kidneys.

If you look at the bit where she is 'running' away, you can see the stumps through the clothing.

Some people swam in front of him not the one that swims under but there is a part where they are literly in front of him.

There would be a number of boards, to allow that, and the people would all be in on it. Walking on water is not possible.

Oh I'm not a hater, I just analyse things too much! And I can see through this guy like he was made of highly polished clear plastic. If you enjoy it, then by all means, go ahead.
 
Limp Bizkit invented Haterade, didn't they?

And miracles don't happen.

I agree, if you use your head to can work out his methods quite easily.
 
That body cutting one was stupid, it's obviously fake, who would get pulled in half and then crawl away, still alive?!
 
I caught a couple of his shows the other day and I have to say that although many of his tricks were impressive, I didn't really like him as a person.

Check out David Blaine, he's far more humble about his amazing skill. No riding in on crazy motorcycles or flashy get-ups, Blaine is just pure magic.

Criss Angel did that thing where he completely ploughed his arm through that guy who "walked right through" the taping. It was obviously fake, the man's shoulders were way too square and his body didn't move positions at all, his hands even stayed in his pockets when the arm went through his chest.

If they can pull off something as obviously fake as this, then how do they expect me to believe that something like him undoing all sorts of shackles and jumping out of a coffin before getting smashed by a car is real?

I really dont know how he does these things

...hence how people like this earn their living... if everyone knew how it was done, it wouldn't be very exciting. I can heartily recommend a British chap called Derren Brown - not only a great 'magician', but also something of a mind-bender as well... but atleast he admits that what he does, albeit amazing, is nothing supernatural or miraculous. Although, what he does requires immense skill, judgement, memory and knowledge of psychology and how to influence the subconscious mind - but at the end of the day, it is stil just plain trickery - Brown's feat, however, is to convince you that it is not, and that something genuinely extraordinary has happened... His show 'Messiah' is worth a watch.... Here he clearly demonstrates that not only is he capable of emulating the otherwise 'inexplicable' talents of a whole range of people (from psychics to faith healers), he is able to account for his skills (and the desired results from his actions) from a firmly rational vantage point... there are precious few people who can/appear to do amazing/miraculous things who will actually have the decency/honesty to turn round and say that it was 'just a trick'...

That kind of act is the best, and is pretty much the opposite of Criss Angel. He keeps touting about his Mindfreak thing, when it is simple
tricks involving distractions and illusions. Many magicians realised that Houdini's days are over and people simply won't buy "magic," but they know that if they present their tricks in a clear, up-front manner and still accomplish something amazing, people will still have the same reaction of "how did he do that!?!" as if it were the old days of "real" magic.
