5, 3 and 2 are all clear wire suspension tricks, 4 is done with editing and mirror tricks you can see that the box has a under mirror to make it look like a bench, and the person who laying down isn't the people that where separated (also it seems that the top half is a lady that was born without legs). Its a nice take on the saw the lady in half trick. And number 1 is done with a rubber under mat covered with a blanket (pen and teller did a great v of the trick where he was run over with a truck, but it was done with rubber wheels and a weight balance). Hes a great illusionist iv seen them before but its always good to kill some time thx.

ummm yeah dude.... You have some of your facts wrong... 5 (walking on water) is plexiglass. almost invisible under water. NOT WIRES! I can see how the suspension could be, but what about earlier in the episode when he floats down on the inside? Continues shot, not wires or anything. No time to put him on them... 4 is only mirrors, not editing. I have seen all of these episodes...

He has people swim round and under him, he also takes his shoes off and lets them drop and he walks like he isn't touching anything solid.
