Hmm keeping yourself upright like he does on 2 wires would be incredibly hard i would imagine. And what kind of 'ropes' are these that are LESS than 1mm yet can hold 100kg?! That's absolutely incredible.

I'm not saying it's real magic, but computer animations doesn't prove anything aside from the rings imo. I'll like to see another performer duplicate it. Who's that guy that does all the stunt like freeze himself and such, he must have a lot of money.

This has been known for a long time... plus, it's pretty obvious. Of course he is using invisible ropes of some sort. However, it's a beautiful effect because of the presentation. David is a world class illusionist not just because he does a few cool tricks, but because of the way he presents them.

old. how does he cut himself in half?

I saw his show in Vegas about 4 months ago. It was pretty cool and laid back. I figured out the teleport to the beach trick. Also the old car disappearing trick was easy to figure out.

I can almost guarantee you didn't figure out that trick. However, I'd be curious to hear your opinion, perhaps via PM.
