Criss Angel beats Houdini record

[Fatallica1985]

breaking a record after 100 years euh ..?!?

[Kurt007100]

Criss Angel escape in 1 minute 45 seconds.Harry Houdini escape under 31 seconds.So you must be now who faster,Houdini or Angel

[lilWayneFurImmer]

Even if this IS fake, i still love and respect Criss Angel.

SO HATERS SHUT UP!!! Ur just jealous bcs u cant do it. DEAL WITH IT.

[bibi5027]

@lilWayneFurImmer no it is not fake,he using his brain Criss adores Houdini,and He is lovely,awesome,friendly fellow,fucking hot

[lilWayneFurImmer]

@bibi5027 *fucking hot*

[GumBeatingTV]

That was a fake and I know caus I am an escape artist and I am 11 so give hudini a break ...ps.. I study hudini and criss angel is a fake.pss. He's Abadan singer

[TechnoFreak21344]

@GumBeatingTV I agree that houdinis WAY better! I studied him hor a project and turns out he was like.. the best!

[seiferkun]

total fake

[kenny5128]

retards calling him fake this was recorded by sum1 live dont b callin him fake

[Topsecrectsupra]

Why you people actually think that Houdini did all those escapes without help? People don't be jealous because Criss Angel is expanding barriers to Magic and illusion. While he is doing that he is also getting paid a shit load of money,so there is no reason to down talk him. I actually have seen him life in Vegas and he did some pretty amazing things!

[TinyCreamPuff]

this doesnt count, hes fake. houdini was a true magician/ escape artist.

[AmazingGordo]

One of the most dangerous escapes of all time, bar none! If your foot slips out, you're gone!!

[cheeseman0822]

@billpools

I agree with you completely the fact the Crisscross Angel wants to even beat it is just awful Houdini was probably

[alanmon6]

v still like harry houdini

[theBOURN3idiot]

houndini learned to seperate his shoulders to get out of them

[billpools]

houdini did it in under a minute, you shouldn't even mention criss angel when you are talking about houdini.

[nickelboy2]

looks like criss is getting a workout go criss

[ronnie123092]

your all dumb,

[DontStopBeIievin]

Criss Angel is an illusionist. Houdini was a true escape artist.

[barnabasoblongcoffin]

1 MIN 45 seconds? really beacause houdini seems to do it in about less than a minute all over the videos i've seen, even when you double the time on houdini's silent fim footage he still beats 1:45

[Ziitox]

What kinda soundtrack is running in the background?:D

[Juliaahr]

Criss Angel is an illusinist & stunt man NOT a magican.

so don't say his magic is fake when he does no magic. ;)

[subressor1]

why are they so hard to get out of?

[AnathemaPride]

@subressor1 They're not unless the front and side arm loops are left on the jacket, most magicians remove them. Then it gets hard, that is, if the jacket is properly applied.

[RebelGirlRules]

lol at 1:21 he looks crazy!!!! nut job!

[RandyRhoadsFan82]

houdini IS magic

[96aromaz]

cris angel is a poser he was spinning the whole time using momentum to dislocate and forc his way out

houdini did it properly on a chin up bar using his own force making him take longer

[myheartstrings]

@96aromaz: Um if you've seen any of the videotaped vids of Houdini doing this then you'll actually notice how much he himself moves... so...

[mismag9221]

so what crissangel has his methoid and if Houdini wanted to make it fast he should have did tha methoid!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[95coulthard]

chris is better

[AnathemaPride]

@96aromaz You're right in spirit, but wrong in detail.

[EbonSplendour]

Its pretty absurd to say "Angel" is breaking a "record". Houdini wasn't setting a record. He was taking the breaths away from an audience of curious and perhaps skeptical bystanders. Then there's this "Criss Angel"? Ok... what are the odds that his last name is actually "Angel".... and its even disrespectful to claim to "break his record" as Houdini wasn't claiming ANY record. And this display is pretty damn obnoxious. Really, was it necessary to have a fucking techno beat.... Holy shit..

[cloudhatake]

Dude, Angel is his stage name. And he is putting on a show. Houdini expressed magic in his way an as a illusionist you can view it in a different way. Thats why people call magic as a form of "art"

[stigmeaner21]

how can people say he sucks after this?

[skelly499]

most people know it's fake, but they watch it anyways, it's good entertainment even if it's fake!

[dudewhosebored]

this isn't fake, im 13 and can escape out of a straight jacket not this fast but i acn escape out in about 10-15 minutes

[dileedavis]

@skelly499 can u do it :)

[checkitoutnow1991]

Houdini is the best fuck angel

[maggie86087]

checkitoutnow1991 you know wat houdini is cool and so is criss angel.......BUT U SUCK ANGEL ROX houdini isnt bad BUT CRISS IS WICKED!!!!

[FRANDMAGICMAN]

laymen you don't know what your talking about.see youtube cutting cards,that is some real skill

[FRANDMAGICMAN]

Houdin rules angel drools and that's the truth

[coolguy4584]

Houdini is the original but that doesnt mean that so and so rules and so and so doesnt rule that really is dumb they are both good magicians and thats true so STFU nobody is better than anybody in this world

[FRANDMAGICMAN]

funlalala you must be a genious,Did some one tell you?

[FRANDMAGICMAN]

the

[tmarquand2]

Criss Angel is a douche bag.

[MikkelBirtilidth]

maybe he's fake, but he tricks you with mind magic ;)

[chilero71]

I can't believe how many people out there buys Chris angel's fake tricks ,we all know he is no magician.

[Funlalalalarilala]

every magic is fake

[uhhhhjoeh]

hahahaha

aahhahah

wow

criss angel is such a fake

[Dogbuggery]

Sundin456 Houdini died of a ruptured appendix on 31st of october 1926 not in his chinese water tourture cell as you claim!

[ultragaff226]

my record is one minute and 32 seconds

[dudewhosebored]

yeah fucking right

[Dogbuggery]

Silly cunt. Houdini never did his acts to set records but fools think just because they do it "faster" then him they are better.

In years to come no one will remember Angel but you ask any child or person who the greatest magician of all time is and undoubtably 75 percent will say Houdini. Not prick Angel!

[Sundin456]

Lol David Copperfield or was better then Houdini and Criss is the best. Houdini was only remembered because he died in a water tank.

[adebep]

he did it double in season 4 (ep.8, called "escape over Bouron Street")

[movie0with0me]

criss give me u power!@!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[joeskateloads]

FUCKING FAKE.

[hubbabotep]

Houdini was a true "escape artist" (as well as illusionist) so, you put him in real cuffs and he gets out. Angel is only an illusionist like Copperfield or Blaine. his escape was illusion with a less than true straightjacket. you don't escape a real one by spinning in a circle. look at his, then look at Houdini. you'll see which is bullshit. also, Houdini didn't have a badass editing crew to help him out. if you don't know about that look at Angel's levitations from building to building...

[schusterlehrling]

Not quite true.

Born today, Houdini would also call himslef "Illusionnist". BTW:

Houdini's trick was not to perfom it fast, but slow, as then the audience got the strange feeling of fear for his life.

So to beat his "record" is simply silly.

[Mrannihalator]

wats funny is that hpudini did the same thing jackass

[crissangel551]

@hubbabotep CRISS DID THAT FOR REAL HE IS NOT ONLY A ILLUSIONIST HE DOES A LOT MORE AND FOR U TO B CALLING HIM A FAKE FUK U

[HpGoesProduction]

@hubbabotep He didn't use real cuffs or anything else ^^

[SkittleFrizzle1458]

@hubbabotep He can do it in 19 secs now i watched his show in Las Vegas lol Awesome

[GabeSuarezzz]

@hubbabotep the building to building was wires, held by a crane

[RACHEL02189]

I swear I think Criss likes to be in a straight jacket

[lllwelcomelll]

CRISS ANGEL IS THE BEST

[fighisver]

of course this stuff is real hes like hupdini hes an illusionist you reall think its magic involved? noo just makes it look like it lol

[indioloco03]

I think criss angles cute

Love krystal

[CollinMcr7]

i can get of out of a straitjacket in under a minute...Criss isnt a fake

[Kathern72]

than why aren't you out there beating the new record Criss just made...

[CollinMcr7]

lol thats not the record its under 50secs now (im not sure what it is). its HIS record. he beat houdini's and i simply beat his...

[bigbaddawg]

Yeah, yeah... sure you did. And did you do this great feat hanging upside down hundreds of feet above the street like them too?

[dirklorden12]

of course there is something tricky with his strait jacket, everybody knows he's not for real. say a trick where he does it for real?

[zelda95master]

dude I can get out of a staraight jacket in about 1:47. this is real.

[Motherfucka101]

round and around and around and around.... poor guy... HE's AWESOME!

[erinhogen]

Besides, I just saw a video where Houdini escapes in 30 seconds.

[erinhogen]

Exactly, he starts flailing really fast so you cannot see his hands when he's spinning, the rest is just slight of hand, and how dare that dumb ass try to even compare Criss Angel to Houdini. There is no comparison.

[IncreaseStressLevels]

ahaaaa lol :L too true too true - u forgot the part where they attempt to eat cereal at the same time lol

[IncreaseStressLevels]

1.09 to 1.17

gd one - "lets just spin around so the audience cant see wat im doing"

fake strait jacket as well :D

[h6T6m6L]

he is surrounded by audience

[IncreaseStressLevels]

yes... but he is spinning so that he moves rly fast and they cant see what hes doing

so they dont realise its a FAKE lol

[h6T6m6L]

yea but technical arent they all fakes. it all who is better at faking it lol

[IncreaseStressLevels]

maybe... but thats quite a cynical view on life, somewhere down the line there must have been realness.. which started the people being fake to beat them.... derren browns stuff is real :D

[IncreaseStressLevels]

anyway, why would u want to hang upside down and untie yourself from a strait jacket anyway... silly way to get urself noticed

lol

[h6T6m6L]

yea but people are all crack heads these days.... look at dare devils. what the fuck is the point of that shit. hey look im gunna jump this perfectly fine dirtbike over this pit of lava with my hands tied to the seat and my ass glued shut so i dont shit my self when i land

[moonsmilelucide]

yes somewhere there is a person that can't fly and then there is the person that fakes he could fly, it's not really a big line and I don't understand why you are saying it's a cynical view of life, we aren't talking about life but about things happening, if one escapes out of locks,chains or rope, it's been done within the rules of what's is possible. People like to make things up to pull them out of their so called boring life.

[IncreaseStressLevels]

i have absolutely no idea what that means :D

[venechiis]

get a life?

hahaha mm i just said the truth and

ok i wanna see ur video in upside down strait jacket escape...

im saying in a good way

ha!

peace!

[jonel55]

fakeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!! i didn't even see it yet and i already now is FAKE

[DavidCopsafeel]

And how exactly is it fake, you f*cking retard? You are an idiot who has no clue what the f*ck is happening! Just STFU!

[DavidCopsafeel]

venechiis...

It's called the upside down strait jacket escape, it was invented by Houdini, and has been performed by many other magicians since his day, including myself! No computer and no editing.

Next time, keep your lame thuoughts to yourself whern you have no idea what the hell is going on, ok?

Losers who think it's cool to go around saying "fake" get on my fucking nerves!! They should get a life or go play in traffic

[xXBeeDeeXx]

well no jonel. this one is not fake. this is video captured by an audience member. its just fake strait jacket is all. theres no way in hell someone could escape from one that fast these days.

[pieface1726]

its ironic how he escapes the jacket by swinging and throwing himself around like a lunatic. xD

[venechiis]

you guys are so stupid cris angel is a fake thats all computer or edit... he isnt like houdini.. cuz houdini did live shows not tv shows!

[DavidCopsafeel]

venechiis...

[DavidCopsafeel]

I couldn't agree more!!

[SKM6700]

I will be forever greatfull to the one who can tell me the name of this music?

[LadyKamiko]

omg

he amazes me greatly!!

[xXBeeDeeXx]

CRISS IS A FAKE!!!!!!

[claudyclaudy1234]

dude... magic is fake.. it's all about illusion

[xXBeeDeeXx]

Video editing is just cheating.

I know magic is fake, but video editing makes it like 20298325098375096435x worse.

[DavidCopsafeel]

Losers like you who think it's cool to go around saying "fake" get on my fucking nerves!! They should all get a life or go play in traffic

[xXBeeDeeXx]

Bro i never said i think im cool for calling him a fake. And we have lives dude. Criss IS a fake and you should realize that. Yeah i know magic is fake, but camera editing is just pushing it. And thats what he does. Building to building levitation, CAMERA EDITED. Luxor levitation, CAMERA EDITED. Why do you think they dont let you record criss sometimes? Because there is camera editing involved. He buys his audience, so he can look good. He sucks. Thats all thats to it.

[DavidCopsafeel]

But my brother, not EVERYTHING he does is fake editing and crap. Sure he uses that, and stooges too, but this escape was straight up, before a REAL audience, and not his usual plants. I don't blame you for being ticked about all the crap he does, but most of his escapes are legit.

[xXBeeDeeXx]

how do you know that the jacket wasnt rigged?

and i never said EVERYTHING he did was editing. yeah he knows some good effects like Sinful, shapeshifter, good street tricks like that.

[DavidCopsafeel]

Any competant escape artist can get out of a regualtion jacket, and like him or not, Criss is very competant.

Plus, he is hanging upside down several stories above the hard cement. That takes BALLS! If his feet get loose, he's dead!

And you're right about the other tricks, they are great! Criss isn't ALL fake, he does a lot of straight up stuff!

[PeteyS93]

Yes you are right, but I think the fact that some stuff he does is obviously fake takes away from the legitamacy of all of his tricks. If you know what I mean

[DavidCopsafeel]

Yeah, I hear you.

[blackpebble]

and your mom is a ho!

[xXBeeDeeXx]

damn right she is/

[cardoso9082]

this dickhead can't beat houdini! who tha hell he think he is??cocksucker

[blackpebble]

[weedazman123]

There both just as good, and both powerful inspirations to me.

[911666777]

criss angel needs to die!

[nacrifa]

[GoofyBoa]

Whats better than doing something you love and making more money than what ever other career you're referring to?

[leon2337]

[FootOfFury]

[flashpro62]

Sorry to tellyou, but that, is a completely real trick. it all is.

[mrcrazyman96]

LOL SPIN CRISS SPIN

[Comedymania181]

David Copperfields was much quicker and alot more entertaining. Good on Criss for his fantastic achievements and for getting his own show in Vegas !.

[cyclonecc]

sss

[nobletime]

Chris angel is a Fakie,,,

[xx13nickfd13xx]

[Dark1Louie]

[Leodor94]

Criss Angel is fake, Houdini is incomparable

[YquePasoPa]

yes. I really agree with you =)

[Hundal19]

Well he is an illusionist,its obvious hes fake.he just makes it look like that hes actually doing something abnormal when hes really not.

[haydini]

Criss angel has a lot of nerves trying to compare himself to houdini... Im not saying Criss Angel sucks... But he has NO respect for the art of magic and NO respect for Houdini!

[welshkid246]

ACTUALLY HAYDINI I THINK ULL FIND THAT CRISS' HERO IS HOUDINI!!......get ur facts right before u insult the best people in the world!!

LOVE U CRISS XXX :)

[haydini]

Criss Angel isnt houdini, houdini lived in the 1920's, criss angel lives in the 2000's right now.

So, if he is houdini, he is also the longest living man on earth.

[welshkid246]

wot r u on about?!?! i sed criss' HERO is houdini!!

[o69NoName69o]

DUDE! he means that criss is hoidini's biggest fan!!!

but.. i still think criss is a wannabe though..

[nobletime]

Chris is a Fakie, Period. houdinin was REAL, Angel is a Houdini wannabe fuckin punk..

[welshkid246]

actually CRISS IS NOT A FAKe!!! hes an ILLUSIONIST!! guess wot...that means theyre ILLUSIONS!!!hes not wannabe because he likes houdini he just likes him! so sorry to dissapoint u but CRISS ROCKS!!!

LOVE U CRISS XXX :)

[flashpro62]

Angel, is real. you'll just have to face the facts

[emeek77]

Criss fuck angel IS NO houdini. Houdini did this stuff back in the day when ther WAS NO SAFTY. Criss is covered with modern equipment and modern knowledge of how things work. Houdini owns angel.

[asdfgh58]

fucking haters, houdini was the best but criss angel is the magician right now. He can own you all so y dont u just save it and stfu. and criss did it in 1 45, and some 17 year old kid does it in 1 50, beats him? you must be really retarded.

[MexicanSunflower]

criss was actualy beateb by a 17 year old kid who did it in 1:50

[MexicanSunflower]

oh btw criss actually did it in 2 mins

not 1:45

personaly, i think criss has potential,

but he needs to work on his inner image, not his outer one.

[luisdaro]

hey dont beat the record houdini has his face indoor

[Eowyn]

He's amazing! Thanks for the video :-))

[rami310]

HOUDINI IS THE MAN

ANGEL AHHH IS A FAKE

[JohnnyRock2000]

Ten years from now they will say, Chris who?

[akrumsalvatore]

chris who? :P

[abracadabra77700777]

LOVE CRISS ANGEL!!

[clepto4peace]

the Houdini video makes it look like he did it a lot faster...even if Chris broke the record he has ruins it for me by buying into this whole Vegas/Hollywood self image thing.Houdini didn't make you listen to crappy techno.

[carthaginensis]

this guy stinks, he's quite bad

[robdamiano76]

fuck you, you stink. and you're just big ol' fat JEALOUS!

[77Fargo77]

Lets see you get hung upside down and then escape! Your an idiot..

[1gigadememoria]

cabuloso

[alvarobakano18]

bad

houdini's the best

[caseymeyers12]

wow thats cool, he has to dislocate his shoulder to get out its pretty cool

[mattamomo]

you dont have to dislocate your shoulderthey just make it look like you do in fact most magicians can do it in around 2 minutes but put on an act to make it longer and seem harder

[oceanicrhapsody]

That's really not true. Show me a magician who can do it in 2 minutes. Go on, send me the link... you do have it right? You're not just talking out your ass, right?

[FRANDMAGICMAN]

oo ,

So what your saying is that he is feeding off of houdini's career.I agree.Chis Angel doesn't grab me.David Blaine reminds me of a magician on too many downers.For me his presentation falls a little flat.Good stunts though.

The spy conection may very well be related to your murder theory.

Magicman

[FRANDMAGICMAN]

No 00.FUCK YOU!!If it wern't for patriots you wouldn't be able to voice your dimwitted opinions.Crazies like who?Benjamin Franklin,Thomas Jefferson?Jefferson once wrote"The tre of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants(you can find tyrants in the dictionary if you have one)It is it's natural manure. I would fight ,kill and die to protect my liberties.What would you do 00?Probably just keep running your foul mouth as you walked away.

Magicman

[papertigerlove00]

i think this guy is bullshit and a farse

[FRANDMAGICMAN]

Hey 00,You think houdini is a farse?You think Chris Angel is a farse/Or you think I am a farse?If you actually wrote a sentance people would better understand the point your trying to make.

Fran

[papertigerlove00]

the video is obviously about chris angel isn't it.His hero is harry houdini he just bites off him kind of like when he went off on peopel that can talk to the dead just cuz his father passed much like houdini did when his mother passed,which is why i think he was murdered not just punched in the stomach,hthis guy's just shit to me,,now david blaine that guy is great,,this guy just sucks to me.that's just my opinion, u can have ur own.I'm sure u do.

[FRANDMAGICMAN]

Harry houdini was an American Patriot!!Most people don't know Harry Houdini Spyed for the US government.He had BALLS.Angel just does things that apear to be dangerous.But trust me he's not going to risk his little girly ass for your entertainment.How long ago did his dad die 10 20 years?Give it a rest!20minutes of hype 1 minute of illusion.Don't you know when your being ripped off?PT Barnum was right."There is a sucker born every Minute" 25 cents this way to the egress.

[papertigerlove00]

fuck being a patriot that type of shit creates crazies so fuck that
