suprised not to see any threads on the mind freak. did anyone catch the season 4 opener where he walked on lake mead? the video of him walking across the pool is all over the web, but this time he walked about 200 feet onto lake mead! i stopped trying to figure this guy out. theres got to be some sort of freaky voodoo witch magik goin on there.

    I just watched the pool one on youtube. I love how the people in the pool don't go crazy until he takes that last step out of the pool. It's like they don't think it's a big deal if he walks half the pool then falls in. Haha.

    But I have to agree with someone's comment on youtube, there is a reason why it's pop culture and not a world phenomenon. :p

    I'm watching him escape death while going through the woodchipper. Is it wrong that I stop the video when everyone thinks he got chopped up so I can pretend that really happened? :D

    i watched one of his shows where he explained how he did the levitation, it was all to do with how he balanced on one leg and hid the other leg and how all the props were positioned,but i dont get the water thing

    He must be one of those mutants. I think it's so amazing humans have finally evolved further. It's weird, though, you almost never see anything about it on the news.

    seems now a days, that with tv based illusions the audience is in on the gig. So it could be the old school fiberglass floor an inch or so below the water line, cgi, bluescreen, who knows, but it is an illusion

  • This entire show is a farce. They use every camera trick in the book, they pay actors, you name it....it's *entertainment only* hence none of it is real.....not a scrap.

    One gigantic illusion best describes this production.

    yep, I wonder how many people think Ghost Hunters is real, and not a scripted show? Had someone at work argue that it's real, and that it's a reality series, lol. forgoing the fact that their seems to be no reality in reality series, I just let them believe...since Xfiles was all real too.

  • I like the trick where he buries himself alive in 6 feet of mud or concrete in a clear plexiglass coffin *it collapses* (....of course) and he crawls out of all that mud...in a nearly spotless bright white button down shirt....

    I emailed the producers and told them they were complete boneheads for not at least rubbing some mud on his gleaming white shirt to at least make it look kinda real.

    They said that because Chris was a bona fide mind freak, he has special powers. They also said he is continually tormented by his raging inner emo kid demon struggling to get out.

    Hahaha. I watched the video of him going through the wood chipper again and I laugh my ass off at how bad of an actor his assistant is.

    "Looks like Chris is having a little trouble, oh, oh no OH MY GOD CHRIS!" As it zooms in on his face and he has the corniest looking terrified face, hahahahaha.

    All the while you hear and see 'bones' being grinded up and all his blood flying through it.
