Todd Robbins is an excellent showman, but there are a few problems with this trick as displayed here. Notably, the construction site lantern. We are to assume it is legit, but two seconds worth of thought makes one wonder why Todd Robbins owns one. Why is it used in the one moment of the trick to garner authenticity. Why is it quickly discardeed.It couldn't be because the shielding on the back is also a good place to put a lighting source that appears to make the faux lightbulb illuminate...
@czerro I'm a magician and last week, saw Todd do this. He doesn't switch anything. I was VERY close by and the bulb is legit. He's not the first I've heard of to do this but as he says, don't try it.
@czerro I think you're reading a little too far in to it. Glass eating is a classic sideshow trick, that type of light is just really convenient for displaying the bulb, and getting it out again. As a performer he probably uses that same light on stage all the time.
not suggesting this is how he did it... however would it be possible to make a mould of the bulb with water and freeze it so that the bulb becomes ice? Not sure how effective it would work, however it sure be more tastier than this method hahaha. Wonder if it would be believeable.
i hope you all know that once glass is finely crushed it turns almost sand-like. therefore if you know your doing, youll be fine. but if your an amaeture, your fucked.
I know how you do it; but because I like you I am not telling. Friend of the late, great Chappy Brazil...may he be remembered with great respect! Best, The Free Advice Man
sorry to reveal this lol.. that isent glass btw and when he chews it sound effects just like when the water is in his mouth and he chews,its louder then ever
It is not, I repeat, It is NOT sugar glass. Anyone can go to the store, buy a light bulb, chew it up, and swallow it. All you have to do is chew the glass up fine like sand and then you can wash it down with water. It's definitely not good for your body so I don't recommend it, but these sideshow acts do stunts, not magic tricks.
Is it bad for your body if your a professional at this trick like the guy here was? I love cody
Island chriss's version of this XD when he performs this, blood gushes out of his mouth which adds a disquasting and more entertaining and comedy to the trick
It is very real. It's a classic sideshow stunt, one i've done many times. Notice I said stunt and not trick. You don't need a banana or anything like that. Just, as mentioned before, you have to chew the bulb up very finely. Of course it's dangerous, and of course it's bad for but it won't kill you unless you make a horrible mistake.
eating glass is safe to do, ONLY if you chuwe it up it a fine powder frist. It feels like sand in your mouth. The only problem with it is that it decsroy your emamel on your teeth, and can give you gum dieas.
To all of those that don't believe this is real, it is real there is just a technique to it, which LaundrySucks describes fairly well. So there is definitely a skill to it, and it is more about the presentation than anything else. Todd is the master at selling it!
Hello, Mcaleck, I am afraid that is simply not true. I was there, I shot this video, and I can tell you that the light bulb was a 100% real GE bulb. He did not have any spare bulbs in the house, he had to take it from a working lamp. Then he again plugged it into a shop lamp for the camera. And I promise at no time is the bulb switched EVER. Thanks for watching by the way.
@mcaleck Yeah, I've seen this live several times and it's totally real. Some stuff just doesn't translate as real on camera. I recommend you check this guy out at Monday Night Magic. He is amazing.
@mcaleck Just saw him live on Broadway in "Play Dead". i swear this is real, i felt a shard of the lightbulb which he then took directly from my hand and ate
Gives new meaning to the phrase "Light at the end of the tunnel" if you know what I mean...

you take the pieces and careful chew them into a very thin powder and then you can swallow it 'cause it won't hurt you. (i think)
