It would seem even the "Dynamo Magician" youtube video links are impossible. |

He's an English magician. Here's some sort of TV special that I think the OP was referring to:

You still have not explained what this thread is supposed to be about, apart from it being a link to a magician.

He does tricks and illusions, PC. He is not performing magic in the sense of the supernatural or paranormal. When he walked on water on the Thames, he had previously (off camera) set up a walkway so that he was walking on that, not the water. It's not really magic.
(I know a little bit about him as he has Crohn's disease, like me, and he recently gave an interview to the National Assoc. of Crohn's and Colitis newsletter.) |
Here's somebody who says he's figured out how Dynamo does the lifting thing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j86AMdV9tfI

I don't like Dynamo at all... He doesn't come across as someone I'd get along with. |
I don't know what is going on here.
I'm not a fan of Dynamo though. |

...but the video has been blocked in the UK. |

If Dynamo is using real magical power, he's doing things the hard way. Many of the tricks he does in the linked special were revealed in the "Breaking the Magician's Code" series.
|
Claim to (minor)fame I knew Dynamo when he was 13 onwards,we frequented same magic store.
FYI he was rubbish even then. Ever wonder with all the people filming him(at Rio statue for example) on mobile phones etc. ,why there is no footage on YouTube or on line anywhere of him levitating?! *strokes chin* |
I'm kind of... impressed. This is a whole new level of gullibility.

This guy is amazing:D
|
I saw on TV this week that Dynamo is being shown in Australia, Channel 7, Wednesday, 8:30-9:30pm. I do not know when the first showing was.

Dynamo: Magician Impossible will be shown this Wednesday, 2012-12-12, 7:30-8:30pm, on Channel 7 in Australia. |
Let me guess. This Dynamo guy is actually a prophet?
|
Too bad it clashes with the cricket. Hhhmmm, Dynamo or cricket? A real no brainer.

Please stop this. As has been pointed out numerous times, there is no need to add your own date nomenclature to each of your posts. Quote:
If so, do you understand how silly that is? |

It seems that Dynamo: Magician Impossible is now a regular feature of Channel 7 in Australia. I just watched last Wednesday, 2013-01-02, from 7:30-8:30pm. I am amazed at how he does his magic, so do people, like the sounding of a horn behind several people, or his disappearing and just leaving his attire, or his passing through a glass panel.

My neighbour thinks he is the best thing ever. He seems to think he doesn't use any of the usual magicians methods or any kind of editing in his shows, it's all recorded 'live' in the street with 'real' people so he can't be usng 'trickery'
|
Does your neighbour also buy those products 'as advertised on TV'?
|
I've only seen one special of his. I'd heard lots about how amazing he was, so decided to watch for myself. In the whole 1 hour special I saw only 1 trick that I didn't already know how it was done. And I'm not exactly knowledgeable about magic. My step-mum saw one of his tricks and just said "that's stupid" and explained how it's done. She knows less than nothing about magic.
The one trick that I didn't know the methodology for was easily explained by editing and stooges. I don't know if that's the correct solution but, judging by the rest of his tricks, I wouldn't be at all surprised. Really not impressed. |
Yes - Dynamo's TV series is also airing in my country.
The thing that annoys me is that this kind of thing really only promotes wooism. There no such thing as 'real magic' as I have seen some express in this thread. That kind of expression too, can definitely encourage wooism. |

Dynamo - as he presents, is no doubt the most amazing Magician I have ever seen on the TV. Some of his tricks are mind boggling - so much that my mind could easily fall into thinking woo-woo thoughts as to how he actually accomplishes some of those illusions - lucky though I am in control of my minds urge to wander down that particular path, and I simply tell myself that he must have more $ than he looks to have to pay all those actors, plus film crew and everything else to do with travelling, rubbing shoulders with the Rich and Famous, bills and hotels as well as having Crones disease (as I read in this thread and am taking that at face value). So yes, Dynamo does indeed present his magic as being 'real' in the sense that he uses expressions and body language to give that impression to those he is playing tricks on. He leaves people astounded and perplexed and sometimes making wooish comment regarding the 'powers' they have just witnessed. That is what Magicians do. That is why I made my comments regarding how Magicians are not really helping the cause to eradicate wooism from Human Consciousness. |

We like to be entertained by fantasy. I think most know what's going on. When I saw King Kong, I didn't really believe there was a giant ape on film, nor did I think Close Encounters of the Third Kind was a documentary. Hard to believe the public is as gullible as you seem to suggest. |

Just like with special effects. Some people are more gullible - especially as children. |

As far as entertainment goes, it is feeding a need which may itself be an illusion. Like movies do. |

The norm is a bit of awe, a bit of amazement and a lot of delight. Can magic serve the woomeister? Sure. Uri Geller comes to mind. But he purposely stayed away from other types of tricks that would have shown him out as a magician. |
