I've been having a massive argument with my friend about David Blaine. he claims that he can really levitate whilst I (being fairly rational) don't believe it in any way or form. I think he's nothing but a cheap charlatan. Can someone please supply me with facts and/or evidence to back me up?
I'm referring to the trick he performs on a street when he seemingly hovers a few inches off the ground in front of disbelieving spectators.

He just goes on tiptoes and say nothing to Eammon Holmes.
Some of the stuff he does, is really quite good.

Yeah, it's all about the angle you view it at. I've seen my someone I know from work do it. You do this weird thing with your feet, like one foot off the ground and the other with only the toe, ball part of your foot on the ground and kind of make it look floaty, it looks pretty good. One foot masks off the point where part of your other foot is making contact with the ground. The trick of champions

Blaine is an absolite genius how he performs his magic. It would be better to see it in real life, instead of on TV.
Making an empty can of pop turn into a full can of pop was pretty good.
