        Why do garden gnomes smell so bad?
        So that blind people can hate them as well.

          Very good, best I have seen in a while. The matches he was using were Swan Vesta's. The birds are actually miniature pigmy fire swans native to Ohio wearing Dove makeup. Made entirely from spontaneous combustion from striking the swan matches. The girl was hiding crouched behind the black cloth in a frame that you could not see.

          The girl appearing was actually the only thing I had a notion to how anything was done.

          The rest, Wow!

          Highly enjoyable.

      Ok, can someone please explain how the hell he just did any of that?

      I just watched the last bit 4 times and I'm dumbfounded.

        The clue is in his title.

        That's not only a "skilled" magician but a real one...

          Oh I see, thanks Daniel.

          It was the title that confused me actually. Not sure why he'd need any skill when he can do magic.

          I thought only Claude could do magic.

          Actually the clue was in the interview, he said it himself, sleight of hand. Though I'm not sure what sleight of hand had to do with hiding some fit lady under his T shirt. Well I can 'imagine', I just don't see how it's humanly possible, though it must be because I just saw it.

            The interesting thing, is that I know how he did all but one effect. But he was so skilled, that the performance took me by surprise. After you practice something like that a few thousand time, the hands can truly move quicker than the eye can follow.

            Although the girl appearing got the best reaction, it took no skill. The slight of hand took immense skill.
            I wonder how long that girl was crouched in the table?

              Apparently, her stockings were slightly laddered.

    That was a brilliant performance that was utterly ruined by constantly taking the camera off him and showing shots of the audience and judges. Would've been good to see it with the camera focused on him the whole time.
