    Totally agree! His presentation is what makes him so unique! Everyone here went to see him when he was on in Newcastle and they all said he was excellent, except my boss who got bored and left half way through! :rolleyes:

    not in all cases nope.

    BUT - in this case it was clearly stated he would NOT pull the trigger unless he was 100% sure which barrell bullet was in...

    and a guess he will know if he is 100% sure or not.....

    granted...theres always a chance cud go horribly wrong..

    i think however this chance was SO small that the C4 producers were willing to run risk of being sued if it went wrong, cos if it doesnt they will make a lot of money a guess?

    how i see it anyway :)

    Magicians always have disclaimers like this - it stimulates doubt :D

    when u doubt their ability - it gets exciting.... we were all shitting ourself when he pretended to get it wrong n shot the wrong chamber :D

    Maybe there was a 1 in 0000 chance he'd get it wrong and if he did he'd stop.... but the disclaimer and safety cause weren't there for safety reasons they were part of the act :D

    Yup! Exactly how it was :)

    We are all sitting thinking "What if?!?!?!" "Go on fucker, blow ya brains out! :evil: " etc - lol!

    Always a risk - but with things like this he wouldnt (and prob wasnt allowed to) have carried on if he was even the TINIEST bit unsure!

    So you saying that he is unable to work out from their actions, voice etc whats going on?

    From what ive seen of him in the past he can do this and do it well...

    Thats why he filtered out people - cos with some he wasnt able to read them as easy - obv makin it lot more dangereous....

    Al stand with Pike on this one - i believe it was real :D

    Anyone with me?!?! ;) :p
