Dynamo - Is It Just Me, Or Does He Get On Anybody Else's Wick ????
41 Answers
I don't know why I watch him anymore - he proper winds me up.
Hardly any of his tricks (and I use the term "trick", very loosley) use what I would call traditional magic (sleight of hand, etc) .... most of what I see, is mainly gimmicks (ok, some very cute ones), stooges and film editing.
I will admit that I'm into magic, so I know how a lot of tricks work, so that helps work things out.
If there are people out there wondering how certain tricks are done, I can tell you that with alot of Dynamo's "tricks", just think "gimmick" or "stooge".
Where's the true art of magic gone ???? People like Dynamo, David Blaine and Criss Angel just spoil it with the over-use of gimmicks, etc. Bring back the good ol' sleight of hand ......
One "trick" that springs to mind, is the one where he "walks" on the River Thames ...... oh c'mon plzzz ...... it's soooooooo obvious it's criminal !!!!

I to Gizmonster have dabbled in magic and I do agree with what you say, he is becoming a bit boring, I also have suspected camera editing and stooges, I think he can manipulate the cards, but he does rely on gimmicks, some of which can be very expensive.

Caran- if you're still there. His name is Steve Brosnan and was in the Apocalypse one. There were a lot of rumours in the local papers after, claiming he was an actor. However, my (usually sceptical) OH does know him and his parents- think he worked with his dad. And says he is not an actor, was in fact an unmotivated person before the show.
