    That lean seems only slightly less impossible than the David Blaine levitation illusion. Did they ever disprove either as camera or invisible string tricks?


    For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?

    He had 2 variations: One was a simple illusion where he raised the heel of one foot, and the other foot completely, making it seem like he was floating. The other variation filmed people looking surprised as he "levitated" using a big machine to lift him up.

    I recall seeing a television show explaining this, but here's a blurb on it: http://magic.about.com/od/biosonfamo...06blaine_2.htm
