Criss Angel and Banacheck says no one has magical powers

[CRISSTARASARANTAK0S]

LUCIFER'S ARGUMENT SERIOUSLY LEAVE MONEY OUT OF IT.EVERYTHING THAT CRISS HAS GONE THREW & WHAT ABOUT THOSE THAT HAVE SERIOUS ILLNESS'S SUCH AS CANCER,SPINA BIFIDA,OR IN WHEEL CHAIRS ETC.YOU CAN'T GIVE THEM MONEY THERE JUST ISN'T ENOUGH MADE TO,EVERYONE IS WORTH MORE THAN MONEY-PRICELESS.

[CRISSTARASARANTAK0S]

CAN ANY OF YOU DO WHAT THEY CAN DO TIL THEN JUST OBSERVE & LEARN.EVERY ONE OF US IS A WALKING ARTIST & EACH & EVERY ONE OF US HAVE SOMETHING SPECIAL ABOUT EACH OTHER YOU HAVE TO KNOW TO APPRECIATE & RESPECT THAT.

[LucifersArgument]

Banachek...considering your situation at 15. Im thinking this is what actually happened. You knew you had "psychic" powers, passed the alpha project then got bribed by Randi with the other steve shaw, the third guy didn't take the bribe. You should be making money of your gifts in the first place. You should be healing people.

[LucifersArgument]

So they say it's an "illusion" yet they don't explain the trick? Cutting someone in a box in half is something but when you can bend spoons and say its trickery but you are actually bending the spoon...you are a liar.

[GreenDistantStar]

@LucifersArgument: Uh, no, not a liar, a mentalist.

[17bluemonkey]

back in the old days moses had the power of god he was the messager

[17bluemonkey]

lier you are a white lier

[savola9]

chris is a giant douche he shouldnt be doing magic you ruin the trick just mean your a stupid imature douche if he wants people to hate him then just act the same i geuss do all edit and tell secrets he is a moron

[AmazingGordo]

Thank goodness Banacheck and Criss Angel are here to tell the world that no one has magical powers! We'd have NEVER figured that out without them!!! *rolls eyes*

[sdasun]

if some one claim he has psychic power, Surely he is not psychic, But that doesn't meant psychic doesn't exist. Anyway I love Banachek and his mentalism works.

[norxcontacts]

Couple of motherfuckers.

[stiggyh]

of course people can have magical powers !!!

[Lopee08]

Iv met Banachek like 6 years ago when i worked at a Magic store............really nice guy.

[Xiouslaidyn]

There is no one true God, but I can promise you that existence and consciousness is quite eternal. Of course, my promise only amounts to whatever the minds of the beholders conceive. All beliefs are valid. All words are useless. Come to think of it, im not sure why I bothered to post this... Guess Im just hoping to give some hopeless mind a little bit of hope.

[stiggyh]

@Xiouslaidyn thanks 

[whitebigpolarbear]

criss angel ,such a cock ,he ,s the only magician available to buy in "hot topic", derren brown would kick his ass......

[mkmkmo]

Sorry Criss is full of crap! I cannot BELIEVE he gets away with all of the editing on his t.v. series. Anyone else would get called out on it, maybe he fools the illiterate and the very young but probably no one else.

His ego is his biggest fan, a sad state of how much the world of magic has fallen!

When he loses popularity he will lose his mind, what little he has.

[gedsaz]

in the park levitation (matrix levitation), criss said ''This is not a trick". i am a magician and i know how its done. it is a trick. he claimed it was real. why dont i bust him.

[nukeurhouse12]

ha chris U still owe uri 1 million

[f50tube]

@nukeurhouse12 ur an idiot.

[RedlineMMA]

@justonekissgoodnight

Your delusional beliefs in god and the devil is no more insane than believing in psychics.

Its like the pot calling the kettle black.

[RedlineMMA]

@justonekissgoodnight

There are only 6 billion people on the planet and Christianity isn't even the most prominent religion.

Their have literally been tens of thousands of different gods mankind has invented and worshiped throughout history. They all claimed to be the truth without ant real evidence to support them.

So yes ...it doesn't matter how many people believe something it doesn't make it true.

Believing things without evidence or in the face of contradictory evidence is delusional.

[RedlineMMA]

@justonekissgoodnight

You do realize that most of the religions throughout history and even the majority today believe in multiple gods...right???

You believe in the god the Jewish cult invented and two religions evolved from that Christianity and Islam.

Religion does little but segregate the world and causes mass violence and war as a result of people believing without evidence but with "faith" they know the one "real" god.

[patu8010]

I just gotta say right now that it sounds pretty ironic that Criss Angel would be preaching about the nonexistence of magic.

The Criss Angle who actually hires over a hundred spectators to play genuinely astonished. :P

[ThePoopcornMachine]

If what Criss Angel does isn't paranormal, how did he manage to fake over a hundred people levitatiing at once?

[joyell222]

@ThePoopcornMachine Mind over matter so it is real.

[pklukepk]

@ThePoopcornMachine - If what Criss did IS paranormal, why would he levitate 100 people instead of just clicking his fingers to create money? curing aids?"world hunger? did you ever stop to think that someone with actual special abilities wouldnt bother telling you your card is the 9 of diamonds? - he's just a guy, and a smart one at that.

[Atheist603]

there's no such thing as supernatural powers

[eggborne]

@FoziaAbdi is there any non-Biblical (i.e. real) evidence for this?

[skepticslayer1234]

What's with the chains and handcuffs, perhaps Criss Angel is channeling the Ghost of Christmas Past.......... Didn't Banachek ( real name Steve Shaw ) get fired by Criss Angel ? Angel doesn't like it when people have a mind of their own and disagree with him.

[ilikeaeroplanejelly1]

hey banacheck? what is plastic silverware? isnt it just cutlery? lol

[xdevynxisxherex]

@FoziaAbdi lol criss angel has no powers, he's an illusionist.

[FINGERJONSIN]

the exact thing the devil wants you to think is that you cant have supernatural powers, people get them one way... Satan, read Deuteronomy 18:10-12

[xdevynxisxherex]

@FINGERJONSIN if it was that easy im sure everyone would have powers

[eggborne]

@FINGERJONSIN Oh my God, are you serious?

LOL

[keggerous]

what banacheck describes at the end there is what creationists and religious ppl in general are guilty of at mass.

[warcraftqpwoe]

its so weird cuz like from the midevil times if there were really witches and wizards and so and so how did the power of magic get lost or forgoten?

[member5738]

@warcraftqpwoe, back then people just didn't know as much. So if you could juggle three apples in those days it was already magical.

[empemitheos]

I kno men wi shood stat a gild or sumthing

[warcraftqpwoe]

@empemitheos ohh thats kinda a good idea

[BrokenBard]

What it proves is that anyone who isn't analytical or skeptical of the world around them, will always be fooled...same with people who already have a judgment on something...they will be folled easily as well.

[isanification]

Uir has power, Criss got digital camera.

[pklukepk]

@isanification hahahahahahhaah LOL - Uri is like a bad magician.

All Uri is is his accent and face.

Bend a spoon with my mind my ass. I can do that TRICK, ITS A TRICK, TRICK, ILLUSION, NOT REAL, DONE FOR MONEY.

[AlbertWeskerBeta]

watch?v=TNKmhv9uoiQ&feature=re­lated

[jimbrown257]

Uri Gellar is such a scum bag.

[BrokenBard]

That must have been a great experiment to be a part of.

[sholden1]

thus proving that parapsychology idiots aren't scientists.

[superlou1s]

Banachek is such a badass

[iVanillaCOOKIE]

o and u wouldn't say this unless yur hiding sumthing

[iVanillaCOOKIE]

shut up u suck

[fucktastic69]

Chris Angel said he "claims" that he doesn't have any powers. XD

[aseriboy14]

i doesn´t understand he said doesnt have any power then criss angel magic trick was fake ? or real ?

[fucktastic69]

it's fake, but it's funny how he says he "claims" not to have magic powers.

[Nightmare91o]

I don't think anyone can understand you.

[Nhia89]

i have powers, i can run faster than the average fat man, i can count every grain of sands withing a 2 meter radius, i can fly a kite 20 ft in the air.......on a windy day

i can leap further and higher than a 7 yrs old kid and last but not least i have the ability reproduce my genes and create life and thus live forever in a newer younger body

lets see Criss Angel try to prove me wrong

[Nhia89]

whoa Banachek

[The47thMagician]

Banachek

A person who fooled the SCIENTIST!

[DARRBEV]

strange that Banachek seems to have forgotten about Michael Edwards and James Randi in his fooling of scientists.

[YouAreHorrid]

Not the case. He's always crediting Randi for many things.

[autarchicflux]

Banachek worked with James Randi in fooling scientists during Project Alpha in the 1980s. They perpetrated a deliberate hoax against "parapsychology" researchers at Washington University.

[jimbrown257]

I was about to say say that Banachek was not part of Project Alphs because I remembered the two guys' names. Then I checked to make sure and you are right; Steve Shaw changed his name to Banachek.

That's crazy I never realized that was him.

[Bana178]

everyone has powers

[kornfan95336]

not in the way of magic

[TraumaER]

loser

[pabloamira]

Criss Angel es el mago menos congruente que existe

es un arrogante y poco sincero

El mismo se considera "sobrenatural" y "poseedor de poderes"

[acebrawler73]

banachek's the shit. Such a cool dude.

[arcosstec]

This is the shitiest show ive ever seen in ma life

[dummbatz48]

Oh, so you have a hunch, great.

/facepalm

[GarlicToast]

It's not possible for humans. If the aliens can, okay, whatever, they can go around bending as many spoons as they want, but the "human ego" probably doesn't need to give two shits.

[blackpebble]

グレッチの3点セットでこのプレイは貴重。

ほんとに達也もっと映してほしい。

[ldhablo666]

Credulity is the enemy of society. Believe in nothing. Question it all. Time to grow up as a species and realize the material universe is all we can rely upon. There is no god, ghosts, karma, blah blah.

The innate beauty and organic complexity of the rational and material universe is good enough-- we have no need for a silly-ass, nonsense ontology...

Read: "God is NOT Great" -- Christopher Hitchens

[SwampDog1957]

Then your saying that your knowledge is so vastly universal and thorough that you know there is no spirit world?

Nothing but the material? Only what we can put our hands on? Is that really rational?

[ldhablo666]

I'm saying believing in phenomena with NO empirical proof is bad for us as a species.

If there is "something" beyond the material universe that can be proven to exist (like when microbes were 'discovered') through scientific exploration then I'll believe in it (like I now believe in germs).

But this nonsense of believing in ghosts, god or karma with no PROOF-- merely shallow anecdotal reservoirs of stories or a "gut-feeling" as our 'proof'-- well that is stupid and leads us into trouble.

[lopytube]

damn the last part what banachek said was kinda deep."they had a pro-bias opinon".....damn preach it

[Thaddeus088]

people need to start harnessing what criss angel and many others possess. its all very plausible.

Golden Ratio

[xpetertran02]

well.....this is bull, what do the humans know?

I have magical powers.

sometimes i shoot a clearish white pee from my penis!

who's gunna tell m thats not magic?

[darkreign16]

I wish it hadn't been canceled. = (

[Catthief6418]

Be careful Criss Satan has that power

[blackcrowcam]

bull shit fuck the devil i'll fuck him in d azz

[AndreBoy316]

he shuda said like , ' Give me 10million and ill show you how its an illusion'

[RaybanCrew]

man, what if people busted criss angel on the spot, because their is a video where it "vanishs" behind a sheet, but he rally goes behind a mirror, and the observer looks behind the moirror and sees him, what if she busted him right there,then he would be pretty embaressed, criss angel is being a hippocrit

[DeeJayQuick]

The observer looks behind the mirror and didn't see him because that part was a video edit.

[super112203]

@DeeJayQuick Whats the name of the song at 0:01-0:24

[platinumbong]

the point chris is trying to make, which he states very clearly is that he thinks it's wrong to use illusions to trick people into thinking they have real magic powers. chris and dudes like james randi don't want to give away magic secrets but rather prove that anyone crossing the line and claiming that they actual have some special power are lying and defrauding people out of their money. plus it can also hinder science and rationality to believe the human body can do things that it can't.

[Tubularm8]

Yeah lol and now he's joining with the biggest fake of them all Uri Geller, who still doesn't admit he is doing slight of hand with the spoons.

[OccamKant]

@RaybanCrew Criss Angel only said he would bust someone who said that it was real. He admits that he's doing trickery, so busting his trickery would just make you a spoilsport, it wouldn't make him a hypocrite.

[NorthLightZone]

@RaybanCrew Criss Angel is not claiming to be using supernatural powers - just tradition methods of illusion.

There is no hyprocisy.

[BARCACROSSESTHEALPS]

@RaybanCrew I think you're missing his point. It's about the ethics of people that claim supernatural abilities.

[footytang]

@RaybanCrew he doesnt claim to have powers he said every thing is an illusion not magic, dont get me wrong guy is the biggest queer on the planet but i dont think he is being a hypocrite

[bibi5027]

@footytang qeer,he is one of sweetest people and I dont know any man who loves women so much like Criss

[kalpal67]

wow banacheck, get to the point! lol!! :)

[bestar1]

yah really

[foreverloyalmeagan]

I think Criss knew ahead of time that this Jim Callahan guy was going to pull the supernautral shit cuz hes like " once someone crosses the line to 'supernatrual' i'm just ganna bust em"

haha go Criss!!

[thepugsta]

PROJECT ALPHA!!!

[jamesrobertdobbs]

Biggest favor I ever did for myself was to give up magical thinking and become a rationalist.

[rtx242]

consider your own direct experience first. then you can listen to what others say second.

[utbetty]

i love banachek,georgeous man and a genuine sweety.wow,and fooling scientist?freaken crazy.he sure overcame alot to be where he is at today

[crissfan4ever]

wow poor banachek i feel bad...

[bliztmagic]

Ask james randi...

[razattack1337]

ok lol

[Davidthecoolman]

CRISS ANGEL ROCKS!

[yesturtle]

haha I like what Banacheck did with his school changing to plastic forks =)

[magic4you2c]

yer but banacheck is cool criss needs to find himself or grow up

[LordDavid6]

Its obviusly that anyone have mystic powers or is something sopernatural....Criss and Banacheck are ilussionist no Wizards! XD
