Has anyone watched Criss Angel Mindfreak on A&E? What do you think of him?I am amazed by his hypnotism/levitation of the girls. The girls had no idea what happened to them.
He levitates himself very high off the ground but it looks like he's leaning back on something. Although there are no props out in the middle of the streets,etc. When David Blaine levitates he gets nauseaus and lightheaded afterwards. When Criss Angel lands on the ground, he acts like it's nothing and just walks away. The only thing I'm a little unsure of, is that it seems that the camera cuts away a lot which makes me suspicious. David Blaine's camera never cuts away, and I am really fascinated by David Blaine and I believe he uses metaphysical powers. I am sure Criss Angel uses metaphysical powers too, but I just don't like how the cameras are so fast and seem to cut away a lot. Real curious if anyone else has watched and what you think? ------------------

I saw him. He made quite an impression. I don't know how he does it, but he's very good!

Ra, did you watch both this week and last week? I taped this week's episode. I will probably tape them from now on because he's on at 10 p.m. and that's my bedtime.  I played the tape over and over again of the H20 turning into beer, and the couple in the hallway who suddenly re-appeared down the hall. I guess he is just a Meta-Physical Genius!!! I still can't get over the girl he levitated!!!  IP: Logged |

Did anyone see him manifest a butterfly out of the palm of his hands? This man is not an ordinary magician. -StarLover IP: Logged |

Hi StarLover ~  Yes I saw that one, it was a couple of shows ago, right? I have been taping all of the shows and the one show I didn't tape was the very first one. I think that was the best one. Yes, isn't he so amazing? I think he uses Meta-Physics. Remember what Jesus said? "what I have done, yee can do too." Like walking on water, turning H20 into wine, etc. IP: Logged |

I just watched Criss Angel tonight for the first time. Yes, I noticed some cuts in some of the segments. A little suspicious. However, I have to say he is displaying properties of higher conciousness realms in which I am studying strongly. I am being led to confirmations of the fact that we do create our realitie(s) and I believe he is working interdimensionally and utilizing the principles of Ascended Masters in which we all have access to realize between now and 2012 (Ascension...process)In love and light,  IP: Logged |

I know this is an old thread, but I finally just saw Criss Angel on TV recently. I was suspicious of his voodoo doll trick, where random people stabbed part of a voodoo doll and it affected him, with blood gushing out of the appropriate part of his body. It just looked to me like he was pretending to be in pain and then smashing a fake blood capsule on the right part of his body... he couldn't see what the people were doing, but my bf's theory is that a guy behind the camera was indicating to to him which part of the body to "bleed" from. We could be totally wrong.I don't know. Does he class himself as a magician, or an illusionist?
I'm very curious to see more. IP: Logged |

I haven't watched him in a long time. On the other thread they discussed that he has some sort of "gimmick" that he sells that "teaches you" how to "build" a device in order to levitate.  I don't like the idea at all that he is "selling a secret". Not good in my book. Don't try to sell your secrets to make money off of your fans.
I have resolved that he is a great illusionist, and David Blaine is perhaps the real thing.
