I assume that the white paper is used as a frame for video trickery?

That's a depressing commentary on the state of magic. If you can just do it digitally, it really takes all the fun out of it.Ivan Seeking said:I have no doubt of that. The people in the video are acting. Thinking about it...they probably just used two different windows. Why go to all the bother of faking a perfect video when a piece of glass with a hole will do?
Or perhaps at 1:34. But what happens during the 10 seconds between 3:00 and 3:10?cronxeh said:The switch was made at 1:40
"Mindfreak: Stepping Through Glass" is a magic trick performed by illusionist Criss Angel. It involves him stepping through a solid glass window without breaking it.
The exact methods used to perform this trick are not publicly revealed by Criss Angel. However, it is believed that he uses a combination of sleight of hand, misdirection, and special props to create the illusion of stepping through the glass.
While there is always a level of risk involved in any magic trick, Criss Angel takes extensive safety precautions to ensure the trick is performed safely. He has trained extensively and uses professional equipment to minimize any potential danger.
There have been other magicians who have attempted to perform a similar trick, but none have been able to replicate Criss Angel's version with the same level of success and impact.
As with all magic tricks, "Mindfreak: Stepping Through Glass" is a combination of both real magic and illusion. While the glass window is most likely real, the method used to make it appear that Criss Angel is stepping through it is based on illusion and sleight of hand techniques.
