After learning so much magic at Trickshop, I decided to see how much magic I could learn online without have to pay for anything. A few quick searches found me pointed to Mallusionist.com. I couldn't believe it! Here were magic tricks I'd seen Criss Angel, David Blaine, David Copperfield, and my weird Uncle Hal do, all explained in incredible detail but using small words so that I could actually understand what they were talking about. I immediately invited my next-door neighbor, Marsha Hottington, over so that I could try out my new knowledge (and, incidentally, be reminded how southern California summer weather whittles away at her clothing). I tried sawing her in half right off. It didn't quite work out as planned, and, well, the police came and there will be an inquest and stuff. I guess I need more practice.

OK, lets get down to it, any website claiming to know criss angels secrets needs to prove it, Criss walked on Water...they say he was wearing floating shoes??? Are you for real, dont they know you would need shoes the size of beach balls to float a human being, not to mention balance on them, try it??? Criss floated between buildings... they say he had helium strapped to him??? Give me a break, go to science class, find out how many cubic pounds of air it takes to lift 170 pounds, then figure out how your going to HIDE it in your clothes??? The fact is they dont know how he does this trick, the best explination is the had expensive thin wire attached to a hot air balloon high in the sky, the harness is conformed to his body so he wont wobble or get off balance. The walking on water?? you got me, Criss is the best!!!
criss is cool but the walking on water bit. That was a little too much. My 8 year old ask me is jesus was a magician too.
are you kidding me???? you guys are actually taking this site seriously? The whole site is a parody.
criss is the real deal ppls!!!
its a belif thing...ike God...nd Jesus... i believe in criss he is jesus to me LOL!! coz if christ walked on water dn criss can...he is god to me!
he is my idol and the first person i have ever thaught of trying to be when i grow up...(yes im onli 15 but i kno what im talking bout)
and ppl hu luv criss dnt hav 2 read this shit bout him...coz we shouldnt care!!!!
mwah criss u r da bomb!!
im loyal 4 eva!!!
Kris
xoxox
I KNOW HOW HE WALKED ON WATER!!!!! HE WAS WEARING CLEAR SHOES THAT WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR....U CAN SEE HIM TAKE THEM OFF AT THE LAST SECOND BEFORE HE GETS OUT OF THE WATER!
Anyone go to science class? criss was walking on a piece of glass that was acting as a bridge across the pool. when glass is underwater, it is effectively invisible. The so-called spectators swimming in the pool are in on the act. you can see that they either swimming under the bridge or walking through openings of the bridge. The openings in the bridge allow criss to effectively look like he is focusing on staying on top of the water, when actually he is focusing on crossing the opening in the bridge without falling and ruining the illusion.
haha.. you guys have to be joking.. well those of you who believe it all..
All i have to say is.. consider the age we live in.. our technology.. the TV owns you all, think of what can be altered in videos.. think of what you can do if you had Millions amoung millions of dollars.. not to mention all the "actors/actress'" in the show... with the "magic" he shows the world, would he not be considered something more than a human being, a man who defies gravity with his mind.. i think the Government would get involved, and something OTHER than ON television [News, Radio, etc] would have a story on it..
doesn't make sense, its.. obviously.. Entertainment..
i just think if you can do what Criss Angel "does" then you are more than a Human and should be praised higher than the pope himself.
you guys make me laugh,criss is not god or jesus although i wouldnt put it passed me i do believe in our lord,sometimes i think its the work of the devil ,quote, haha.. you guys have to be joking.. well those of you who believe it all..

this guys right its all camera and actor tricks,like cheap tricks are easy to learn these ones are more expensive and harder to learn.cris is just really kick ass and smooth with his tricks!
all i have to say is think how many "actors" he would have to pay and the amount of money he would have to pay each and everyone of them to keep their mouths shut and not expose him....hundreds of people would have to be in on his tricks. would any of you keep his secrets for him for a couple bucks - and if so it would only be a matter of time before you could sell the truth for a lot more...eay
How hard is to make the actors sign a contract that if they open their mouth then can get in trouble or worse lose their jobs.i wouldnt tell if i was an actor,and even if thier not all actors he still needs asistance.So maybe they're the ones helping him,but really think about it for a minut,can you walk through glass or float,there is some kind of way that criss angel does it,but as long as we dont know how,we have are own belief in criss,thats what makes him so dame cool.regardless to say criss is very good at making magic.
to all the people that think criss agel is a god or like jesus, no one is like them. criss is an ILLUSIONIST, key word, illusion. he does stuff that in reality look real, but there's a secret behind everything he does.
I belive that Criss is real. He had done so many amazing things that NO ONE could explain. So I think he does have some sort of powers. I know some fo his tricks are just "tricks" like the card tricks and the quarter and the popcan, but come on, he can read minds, he can see what you see. He can dissapear, fly, and he is amazing! No matter what anyone says this is what i believe.
Love ya <3 Criss Angel!
=)
All you guys are on drugs!!!!!!! There is an explanation for everything. All you dumbas*eswho want to believe that what Criss does is real need to wake up and smell the bullsh!t. He is the master of illusion. he knows how to trick people and do all type of stuff a lot of regular people cant do. Why dot all of you surf the internet until you found out how Criss does what we see on TV. You can find anytheig if you look for it long enough! UGH!!!!
If he was wearing clear shoes how did a woman pass under him when he was doing the trick? He's being doing tricks like this for 33 yrs, What he does will remain a mystery. Criss is an inspiration to everyone that comes into contact with him. Stay sexy Criss! lol
I've seen how he walks through the glass. Ever notice it's in a sucluded area like an alley way? There's a covering on the glass on the other side that lifts up the paper is to hide it. After the paper is up he goes through the hole from the door and when he stands up the thing goes down returning to a normal looking piece of glass.
To those who think he's the real deal, have a look at this...

iceman4Chriss Angel reached into his top hat and pulled out the internet.
be careful. maybe he'll make it vanish.
den den dennnnn
Geeze you people that think he is GOD are so gullable. Get a life already! IT'S JUST AN ILLUSION! What a scary world we live in if that is all it takes for you to believe he has "super powers".
Amen brother!
To those of you that are calling it "edited video" I laugh at you just as hard. What about hudini? he did this in front of live audiences with no special fx and achieved some of the greatest escape acts of all. I'm not saying Criss is legit, I'm not saying he's fake. He's an illusionist, he just gets in front of crowds and shows them something, you interpret it as you want.
Ha! No seriously it's funny. I was thinking that he was Jesus. His last name is Angel; and is first name is Criss. Criss=Christopher=Christ. Ooooh! Creepy! I know it's not true, but it's a funny coincidence :)
I think the trick walk on water is great. I doubt Criss Angel have some kind of God gift to make our minds freak out.
One day we will see him walk on river water. That will impress many of you guys... and me as well :D
Grts
i just wann a start off by saying
criss is not god or jesus
and if you think that
get an effin life
srsly
how sad are you
criss angel is a master illusionist
and if you can prove he is a fake
then do it
but so far..
there have been some pretty stupid reasoning!!
i think they sawing that lady i half bit was extreme
if it were true
why didnt her guts come out?...
too much
whoever worships criss angel or who thinks he is god is going to hell. there is only 1 god and criss is not it
ok for those people that think criss is god ur crazi. in the ten commandments it says to not to worship any other god except him. u people r ret.ards if u belive that
nd that video just shows howw he levitates i noe its not real thats y its called an illusion but it doesnt show how he levitates from building to building. it an illusion but it is a very good one i cant believe wat he does nd i dont think he pays ppl just so they wont spill his secret. wat u think he pays the person with the spectators camera too. watever
Criss angel is awesome and everything but some of the stuff he does i question!!!! Like when he went through the window... how did he do it!!!! I know that it wasn't real but wat really did happen???
From one Illusionist to another. Criss you can do better than that.
Holy smokes you guys on here are gullible. Criss is a master ILLUSIONIST and a good actor. The walking on water sketch is easy to explain. He was walking in a peice of glass/ fiberlass just beneath the waterline . It was supported by glass pilons on either side . The girl( part of criss's team) swam underneath the glass.
Every illusion has its truth to trick your perception. That is why they are called illusions.
Sorry Criss,
Criss's Mentor
i love how everyone is arguing how criss angel is GOD or not
what a waste of time
he is fake
that is all there is too it
if anyone loves him that much...
you need a phonebook to find a therapist
cris angel is a charismatic, well-funded magician with a brilliant support team who always stresses that what he is doing are illusions, if he could really do these things he would already have done them for the james randi educational foundation and collected the one million dollar prize they offer for scientific proof of paranormal powers. enjoy cris and marvel at his showmanship but lets not get carried away.
I farted
all right people understand that u think chris is fake but explain how he levitated! and also when he walked on water his shoe fell off how could u walk on water without shoes and whoever said he had glass shoes or sumtin u r stupid! also y would a blimp tie a rope around chris..did u see a blimp no and before u think im dumb how could the baloon see him? ever think of that
thank u chris for all the things u do there awesome! =]
your worshipper, Tyler
u people r soooooo stupid thinking that chris isnt real he split a woman in half u crazy idot she was a live screamed and ran away! u people r idiots! chris is real and u guys know it and how in the hell does he walk up walls anyway it freaks me out when he impales himself its pretty scary. and the car real! its a real car u fools it goes through a real wall he has an extremeley powerful mind thats all.
rock on chris, tyler
lets get one thing straight u all r pumpus fools thinking chris isnt real! the only way i would nt beleive in chris is if he tried to levitate and fell then saw his foot under his torn pants.
u r such idiots!,anonymous
OK, I agree w/ the person who posted before me & the one before him. Those explinations were bogus, and walking on water is too much. It was all staged. the wires to hot air balloon? Close, it was a very expensive system ($1500) called F.L.Y. For any other magicians besides me viewin=g this, it's basically a huge ITR. Helium would make him go up. He used F.L.Y. also to levitate over the tree. Walking on water? Plexiglass. Not across the entire pool, but in sections. He could see where they are, bit not us.
St. Krissi-get a religion. May I suggest Christianity? Criss Angel is not God, not even a Demi-God. Listen to his lyrics of Mindfreak; "There`s no reality, just this world of illusion that keeps on taunting me." It's all fake, every single bit except when he puts himself in harms way, like the time Dog tied him to a chair (Do not try that at home!).
Criss uses camera tricks. Get over it. Don't believe anything you see from him.
-Magician X
P.S.- Jesus was not a magician. He was the real deal, Not Criss.
Haha. It's so funny to see people guessing about what Criss actually does to get past his demonstrations. Guys, the thing is, I watched on a "Phenomenon" videoclip you can find on Youtube that he said he's never claimed to be a magician. ppl claim him to be. he said he just does what the directors and producers require him to do, as his job. he doesn't work with magic. I know coz I know practically everything about Criss's tricks and illusions.
it's pretty cool some of you guys where right as to what he's done with regard to how he does his illusions.
Take care and have fun.
by the way if u guys know so much why don't you try creating your own video and become like Criss Angel and his doings.
1st- that site mallusionist is not what you should look for. I was looking at a trick - incedent...omg i have the dvd with me and thats NOT HOW THE TRICK IS DONE . And the way they show made it ALOT WORSE
Criss angel isn't holy, you guys watch too much tv. If he is why would he be performing to make money, he can just turn blank paper to money and live his life. He walked on glass, cylinder glass and there was only one person (worked for the company) that swam under it. Thats why noone else got close to him or touch him. Ugh stupid people
he is the best I can't believe he can fly.WOW
And he can walk on water.I think maybe he is God coming to test our faith
i remember when i smoked this stuff i strated to fly, WOW it was amazing and i saw little fairies and goblins and a man walking up a wall like a spider...
you guys need to stop jumping to conclusions. you think you know everything, but you don't. believe what you want. Criss is very good at what he does. just leave him alone.
criss angel isnt god !!!!!!!!!!!!! really!!!!!!!!! you guys are on meth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this is how criss walks on water:notice how his feet go a little bit under water and how he points his camera down and looks into the camera and how his steps are even? well, there is glass that is under water that you cant see . only the camera can see . also , for the woman going under him she is actually going through the glass oh, and everyone are actors!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! drug addicted freaks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
U guys need to find a pair of Ruby Slippers...click you heals...and say "I wish I were back in reality...I wish I were back in reality
U guys need to find a pair of Ruby Slippers...click you heals...and say "I wish I were back in reality...I wish I were back in reality
... Chris is real.. The Matrix is also real!
I'm sorry But I think someone is just a little jealous of Chris here. lol.. Besides Criss Angel ROCKS!I LOVE YOU CRISS!! WOOO!!! lol
people getting criss angel tattoos are pretty unbelievable. the guy makes money by being great at large-scale illusions. he knows how to act as well, which is half the skill it takes. the other half is the illusion he creates with a darn clever mind.....but the ink? necessary?
Please, everyone posting here, do a Google search for "English grammar" and another for "typing lessons". Study the relevant links, and return to this forum later.
First off , there is no God.
Christianity...........
The belief that some cosmic Jewish zombie can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh, drink his blood, and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master so he can remove an evil force present in all humanity because some rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree.
Yeah makes perfect sense.
Please use your fucking brain. God doesn't exist.
And as far as Criss Angel, he is a fraud. He claims "continuous" shoots, and not camera tricks. Please give me a braeak. And anyone that thinks he is God or Jesus, go back to tardville. I can't believe people can be that stupid.
ow my god I love your show ,to me chriss angle mindfreak is the #1 show everrr!!!!!I remember in one of your episodes you had to lay on I think 9 in a half inch neadles I almost cried.And the fact that you love animals makes you sound even cuter and sexier.I love you and god bless you,please write back!!!!!!!!!!!
what i wanna see is this guy jump from a plane with no parachute, and half way down, disappear and reappear in the plane...
then jump again with no 'chute, and land safely. now that would be a trick!
hay myth busters should do a chris angel specal dis proving all well most of chrisis (affordable) trick myths oh and everyone look at chrisis building levetation trick its fake if u notice the sun is there in one half ofthe trick then a few seconds into it when he is in the air the sun is gone and when u see the side view of the 2 buildings he is levetiong across u see a guy foloing him then about 5 seconds into that the guy dissapears its just video editing oh and the girl who swam under chris in the water trick the swam rite under where he stepped. The only one i cant figure out is when chris cut th guys arm off wit a saw and never put it back on i was kinda worried bout that one and i think when he cut it off the guy who he cut it off of was an actoer and he had only his elbo in the sleeve and the arm was fake
there was a blood despencer pump in thejacket he was wearing and the arm was a machine and when chris said to move ur arm the guy had a remot and moved it or chris pushed a button on the arm and the button was probally under the fake skin of the arm simple one and chris cant put it back on so thay never did... but chris angel is THE BEST illusinast in the history of this world!!!!!!!!!!
Mythbusters wouldn't have the balls to run a special showing everyone criss angel's tricks. Ever notice how those TV shows magicians that reveal tricks cover their face. They don't to get killed by angry magicians/illusionists or fans.
There are always going to be retarded people that believe these tricks are real. You can tell most of the people on this forum are very young and don't use logic or reasoning.... And even without using any logic, you can just see that Criss angel calls himself an illusionist, not a fucking godsend. He creates ILLUSIONS. They appear real.
It's entertainment children, not science.
Also, the fact that Mindfreak is on A&E might also hint at the odor of bullshit.
Chris Angel is the worst "magician" i have ever seen, Any one with money can use paid actors to do his tricks....he's a disgrace. David blane has a aura of magic to him, he walks the street searching for actual strangers doing real magic, not fake premade "stunts" All of Chris's Stuff is so easy to figure out its pathetic
well for starters when criss angel walked across water you can see him take his shoes off half way across the water and a girl swam under him how could he be wearing clear shoes that reach the bottom you guys really need a reality check... he is good at what he does and you are just jealous. if you think he is fake how does he do the trick where he lays on glass and gets run over by a steam roller tell us all that on if you think he is fake... he is the best and you are all just jealous... criss rocks love you criss.......
