Oh yeah, no doubt.

Why can't Blaine just admit to being a Magician like most do?

Because he sucks as a magician. I place Blaine in the same category as I do Geller. Both are cons because they pretend what they do aren't tricks. Criss Angel is a real magician and he has challenged Blaine that he can outdo him in any of his stunts. Blaine hasn't accepted the challenge. Geller pretends he has psychic powers when all he has are the half dozen basic magician's tricks, and Blaine pretends he has endurance powers and all he has are a few basic magician's tricks. Both of these losers ought to just be honest and come clean with a "It's only a trick, but doesn't it look amazing?"

But David Blaine just broke the Guinness Book record for holding his breath underwater, 17 minutes on the Oprah show two days ago? He has tremendous endurance, but as a magician he probably sucks. I haven't followed his career that closely, as I am not a magician! Ha.

Speaking of cons, came across this old gem on YouYube.

Uri Geller fails on Tonight Show.

Just thought some of you might like to see it.

Yup, I love that video, the moron was like a deer caught in the headlights.

Okay, Blaine = Geller.. Angel = Burton? Or Ricky Jay? And what about Valentino, the supposed "Unknown Magician" who used to do a "magic secrets revealed" show for NBC or FOX? Maybe we should have a forum about favorite magicians? Me, I don't like the big production types, or the prop gags.. I like the guys who can con you 8 ways to Sunday with a simple three card monte gag like Jay or Harry Anderson...
