That was absolutley horrid last night. Usually his stuff is pretty amazing leaving you saying, "wow how did he do it?" Last nights stunt, however was rediculously lame.
The lame factor kicked in in full force at the moment all of the alleged internal cameras simultaneously went to fuzz.
Clearly, as soon as he gets from the balcony into the room they cut to prerecorded footage. I think the worse part may have been when he "appeared" at the end. His acting as far as trying to portray a fatigued man that nearly escaped death was far from convincing.

Some of his stuff is really cool, but the last 3 or 4 shows I watched were pretty lame. Did you see his bucket in a crane trick, more a feat like jumping some cars than an actual "magic"

I didn't watch that one, how did it work? was he just walking on some sort of platform?

Pretty much . The over acting by the "random" passer by was really bad and ruined the illusion.

Actually, the BS started when he kicked out the glass. That wasn't glass. It was some sort of safety glass that was just installed for the stunt. A friend of mine's company did it.
Then..yeah..the camera fuzz. Then he walks out, covered EVENLY all over in dust, without a scratch on him, no clothes torn, etc. lame!

Oh, and no way in H-E-Double-Hockey-Sticks were they going to blow the building up if he was really still inside of it.

It has turned into a look what stunt I can do.

Ive never gotten into him. I love magic but he is just full of crap.
I've only watched one time before. I'd rather watch David Blain any day! Chriss is just too weird, too cocky. I can't get into it.
