I've been lucky enough to have seen this guy a couple of times. Very clever.

One of my all time favourite optical illusions.. Now download your own dragon. Print out on to A4 paper, then cut it out carefully. Be sure to follow the glueing instructions carefully.  |

I urge everyone to have a go at making a dragon (above) not only will it keep the kids amused but take it to the pub and you'll be surrounded by new friends all eager to buy you a pint!! Well maybe not.... you'll be surrounded by complete strangers all eager to see your fantastic illusion.

WOW, this guy is amazing. It used to take me about 10 minutes to solve the Rubik's Cube, this guy does it in under 1'30" whilst juggling it with two other objects!

He should never have given away all the secrets of the magicians in the programme he did. He ruined it for us. We knew that magic was a trick and a clever ones. He took away the mystery, no wonder he kept his face covered.  When I see I magician now, I am thinking about how the trick is done, before I look at the actual trick and being in awe by the magicians skill. |

The damage he caused will last for years. Thankfully, he isn't on our screens anymore.

I enjoyed his shows, and actually grew my interest in magic shows.
I appreciate more the tricks I cant figure out, and you tend not to see the same old tricks any more.
In the world of the internet ANYONE can find out how a trick is done,
I was entertained by him and he helped me like magic more, and appreciate it more

Prof Richard Wiseman has released a magic trick on DVD. I've got it on order and will report back as and when it arrives.

Just watched Jonathan Goodwin on the Jonathan Ross show!
The lying on a single spike trick wasn't very well performed, it was pretty obvious he was using the leg gimmick that Dynamo uses for his weird balance trick.
Not impressed!
