blended both cool enhance escape magician time
I don't think you can say something is or isn't magic. That's what was cool about Houdini, because he was a magician who had a magic show, but he was also an escape artist, and they kind of, over time, blended together. They both kind of enhance each other, I think.
crashed
I think that when Evel Knievel crashed over the fountain at Caesar's, it kind of gave you a credibility and then anticipation for everything he did.
mind paranormal power using
I think everything I do is normal, not paranormal but normal. It's using the power of the mind to achieve whatever we can endure.
I think anybody can do any of these if they train. I don't recommend it, but anybody could do it if there was a need.

I consider myself a showman, and I love magic, and I love art, and I love performance, and they're all separate.

I think magic, whether I'm holding my breath or shuffling a deck of cards, is pretty simple. It's practice, it's training, and it's - It's practice, it's training and experimenting, while pushing through the pain to be the best that I can be.

People haven't even begun to tap into the potential of what the mind is possible of doing. We only use a certain percentage of our brains.

If not, I will drown and you all will see something pretty insane.

I'm not worried about the first three weeks, I'm worried about the second half of this when I start to lose my mind and everything gets really bad,
asked certain length spot time
If I asked you to stand in one spot for 35 hours or a certain length of time, you could do it.

The hands have been pretty bad, but everything else is good.
My only fear is the unknown.
