Taking it at face value great stuff - there is a cut just before he takes the shoes off I think, but very convincing all round.

Good find - thanks for sharing.

There are two possible explainations.

1: It's magic

2: It's a camera trick


I'm going for option 2

I've seen someone else (maybe it was blaine) do the same sort of thing when taking a ring out of a jewelery store..through the glass window...he didn't use a piece of paper though...(and no bricks either)
I am going with option1...I don't want to know how it's done..it does look cool though.

I love how he says to the cameraman 'no cuts', then makes to go inside the shop, the guy says 'Can I come in?' and the magician says 'Sure'. Then, he suddenly decides to take his shoes off, at which point he comes back out (leaving the other guy inside) and the camera cuts away from the glass.

BTW, I don't think this guy is a very good magician, his misdirection is rubbish ('I think I'll take off my shoes' - puhlease!)

Its a scientific fact that it is a lot easier to morph through glass if you are not wearing shoes!!

Did you not study that kind of thing at school?

he never takes it off the deck, just pushes it back on the top.
