I stand corrected. One of the Blaine shows was a repeat where he burned a piece of paper with someone’s name on it, waved the burning paper across his forearm and made the name appear on his arm. He was wearing a long sleeve shirt when he did that. His sleeves were rolled up slightly, and the sleeve where the name appeared was half way up his forearm when he started showing the name imprinted on it.
He bit the top off a quarter, held the rest of the quarter right in front of him, spit the piece of quarter out of his mouth and it looked like it landed right back at the top of the quarter and made it whole again. I assume he did a “hand is quicker than the eye” thing and switched quarters right in front of you, but it was impressive. Then he pushed a cigarette through a quarter that looked whole.
It reminded me of the other show I watched last week where he stuck his hand through a storefront window and grabbed a watch that was on display. The watch actually belonged to a person on the street he was talking with. It ended up in a shop window display. He stuck a newspaper on the glass window, stuck his hand into the sheet of newspaper, through the glass, grabbed the watch and handed it to the person. How the hell does he do that?
Then he did levitation on the street several times. There were people all around him watching this. He would turn his back to some people, tell them to catch him if he falls, then he’d levitate several inches off the ground. Once, it looked like he rose up about a foot. You could clearly see daylight under his feet and nothing holding him up from the bottom. Somebody walked over and waved their arms over and around him to see if there were any wires, but there were none.
He’s either an alien or the devil. Or maybe a devil alien. Do they have devil aliens? Yeah, there must be devil aliens, right? I mean, in this whole universe, there has to be devil aliens.
