She’s handicapped woman with artifical lower body. I’ts evident when you see her running withtout legs

screw yall its real

Forget to take your meds, Nate?

actually he has a specal pair of pants for levating he steps out of them with one foot and lifts him self up thats why he has his back facing the people

OK, so I am going to spoil it a little bit.  If you look at the woman who he first asks to lay down she is not the same girl that “runs” away.  I actually know the girl that runs away and she is not a midget.  When she was born, her legs did not fully develop and she has been in a wheelchair ever since.  You may not believe this, but she can actually RUN very fast on her hands.  I’m not sure how the bottom half of the trick was done, but as for the top of the girl, that is how big she actually is.  They switch girls when Criss goes behind the bench and they cut away to that random guy.  Anyways, hopefully this wasn’t a huge spoiler for those of you that believe in MAGIC!!!

You’re not spoiling anything as, if you read through the comments, we’ve long since found the earlier performance of this very same illusion by “Rajah Raboid” back in the 1930s aided and abetted by “half-man” Johnny Eckhardt and a midget who acted as Johnny’s legs.

It’s an old trick, but one done exceedingly well.

Its majorly edited.  If you paused the video when the top half is running away then you can see frames where her right arm is missing and shes floating in the air.

You guys are thinking too hard. Its an old topic but I thought I’d end this case.

All this trick is, is a woman with no legs attached to prostethic legs that have some sort of electronic capability to move.

If you look closely you’ll notice the legs stand up on their own and when the woman is walking over the camera avoids showing her walk.

Then when she is pulled apart you can look closely and notice that the “ripped” portion of the woman is not just waist and above. There is something that moves independently from the waist which would be the nubs of what used to be legs.

No need for electronic legs. The trick is over 50 years old and how it was done has already been discussed previously.

Not only that, but I will bet a silk pajama that there aren’t any prosthetic legs (yet) that walk as well as the woman did in the film.

You just have to watch the video several times to see the following: When the legs stand up Cris Angel moves to the front of the bench (no one else is near the becnh).  When the camera zooms in on the toes he is standing at approximately 3:00 o’clock to the legs (look at the shadows).  Then you get a shot of the wiggling toes. Note that there are two persons to the right of the legs, both of which are now behind her. This would mean that the tape was spliced at this point.

I saw an ABC (Americann Broadcast Company; not Australian Broadcast Company) where there was a young man by the name of Doug Fortis who did not have a pelvis.  He ambulated on his arms very much like the woman in tthe tape.  Many of us had figured this part out.  If you look atg how the woman walks, it cannot be artifical legs (too natural a gait).  So that must mean a midget or dwarf.  But you say, look at the proportion of her feet, they look proportional to the rest of her body.  Well, it could be a midget or dwarf using artificial legs and feet.  That would mean stooges in holding the artifical legs.

Great trick and nice performance (even if it is an old one).

WoW! A USian who knows Oz exists as well as knowing our ABC exists.
You’ve impressed me - and before anyone else suggests it - I’m easily impressed.
It’s a pity you didn’t use all those smarts to read the comments; you woulda realised we know all there is to know about that trick.

Yes, there was a documentary featuring this same woman who was born without legs. The real trick was getting her to the bench… Notice how Criss helps her lay down with particular attention to not letting her bang her head, as the legs were Criss’ prop. Then after she was “pulled in half” notice how undauntedly she ambles off… this is her normal “get-around” behavior.
