Craziness on a stick!

I'd say its actually two dudes, one who lost his legs and pelvis, and one who lost everything but his legs.

That's short.

fake!

</bandwagon>

It's a tiny dude inside a costume, the green trousers contain tiny stilts - watch the way he walks at the end, and the way only the bottom parts of the arms move.


Absolute genius!

More comments at this dupe, including a link to a video explaining how it's done.

[spoiler]
The explanation at that link is pretty much what I figured, but the part that is missing (how the two halves got put back together) I think is just that the lower half person removed his legs from the standing "hallow legs" and pulled them into the cart with him. Then the others carry the hallow legs over to the top half man who simply extends his legs into them. The lower half man is no longer in the legs when the upper half man is jumping up and down.

The kind of tricks I've never been able to explain are ones I've seen David Copperfield do: He throws a plastic brick into the audience and the receiver yells out a number then tosses it randomly somewhere else behind them in the audience, then they yell out a number and it continues a few times. Before the brick throwing stars he hangs up a box on stage. After the numbers are all randomly decided, he pulls from the box an actual stamped license plate that has all the numbers in the order they were yelled. Now how's that done?

A similar one is where he hangs a big envelope up before drawing a random painting on the wall based on random audience members (via the brick throwing). Then he opens the envelope and a huge sheet of paper contains the exact same picture he just painted. Baffles me.
