Hello. I dont know if this is true or not, I was highly doubting that it happened. however someone at work claims he watched david blaine and saw him walk on water ? reason I didnt believe him is that according to pen and teller, david blaine agree to NOT do this effect because the creator of the effect did not give permision rights. "criss asked for the rights and was denied, and went ahead and did it anyways". Now I have looked everywhere online, youtube, google, yahoo, typed in anything related to david blaine and walking on water, and did not get a single link of info. so I have come here to ask if ANYONE here have ANY info regarding david blaind and walkin on water. ANY info, vids or any proof of it occuring at all, please respond.

Your friend is mistaken.

he walked in the water ,not on the water.

pfft! I can do that!

thats what I was thinking, I have seen all his stuff, but never have I watched him walk on water, I know he walked IN water, I watched his whole drowned alive and saw nothing... yet he believes he saw blaine walk on water, he claims blaine was at a kids park, and was walkin on the water even dropped his shoe in the water and a kid picke dit up... however to me, it just seems he mixed up criss angel along withs omething else. because only criss dropped the shoe in water.

It's possible he did it. He promised Kole he wouldnt use the effect on TV. Maybe he just performed it, he is a magician, he performs magic. But meh, it hardly matters.

The guy probably saw criss angel do it and then mistakenly said david blaine because those are the only two magicians you see on TV.

my thoguhts exacly kraynik

How do you mistake Angel for Blaine?

i never knew that you can deny someone performing a trick.

copying and claiming ownership of the trick maybee, but performing it.

If you mean 'deny allowing them to perform the trick' yes. If you create an effect, you own it; and no one can take it from you.

I don't allow any of my effects to be performed in any visual media, it's in the instructions. When people post videos of my effects on Youtube, they are warned and if needed sued. They can't deny knowledge of the restriction because it's in the instructions, so there. I've never lost a lawsuit on this subject.

Bottom line, if the creator of an effect says "No go". you can't use it. If you bought it, then you could do it for fun and all, but there are limits.

The guy didnt claim Blaine did it on media.

actually, when you "purchase" an effect, you purchase the right to perform that effect anywhere you want. You can't stop people from performing something you allowed the public to have. You may have put that in the instructions, but you did not put it in a disclaimer that was tp be read before purchasing the effect. If someone took you to court over it, they would win for false advertisement. I personally will not purchase an effect from you now, regardless of how nice it is, because I wouldnt be able to perform it except for fun. I still have respect for you creator because of the way you handled my situation, but I do not like that you do not want people performing your effects. I can understand why, exposure. If you were that worried about it though, you would not have those items sold.

Thank you for clearing that up for me, now it makes sense.
