I think I saw this on "The Masked Magician". The crowd reactions when he 'bites off' his thumb are real, but there is some camera trickery for the TV audience to enhance the illusion.
But well done for working out his thumb was never really gone.
Man people really aren't smart. It is Big Train. It says so in the title. Simon Pegg was in Big Train. This obviously isn't real. Just so you know there is a line between reality and fiction!
In my honest opinion, Mark Heap is one of the most underrated british actors. His performances in Spaced, Big Train, Jam, Green Wing are stuff of legend. Simon Pegg is brilliant but for sheer talent Mark has it hands down.
@meu02136 oh man hot fuzz is incredible. as is Shaun of the dead. mind you not so hollywood because the are Edgar Wright!. Although Spaced is absolutely AMAZING!
have you got the platoon sketch where hes talking about the horror of what hes seen then starts doing magic tricks? love that one but can't seem to find it anywhere.
fake. the audience is part of the act. they are making it look like its real. anyone can do that. He hides his thumb but not really cus the audience can see it. good video though. lol
this is brilliant, thnx 4 uploading this. its so funny, and the way they r so shocked. by the way simon pegg an mark heap r legends, that is y.....they...rule.....lyk u. bye lol!!!
