Ok, I knew it was staged, but, not that the guy considers himself a professional magician or illusionist. It looks like some hack that's doing a trick, trying to make it bloody for more viewers. I just know that some of the young skulls full of mush that watch this stuff on YouTube don't realize it's a scam, and try to replicate some of the crazy stunts they see. I'd just rather see the dope on the youtube suffer, rather than some kids with poor judgement. I see plenty of that anyway with what kids do with fire and sharps on camping trips. We just try to keep them from anything major... now if anyone asks for a turntable and 4 large cups, I'll know what to do
