YouWhat?
I don't know whats up with the comments on YouTube, at first I thought it was just my videos ... but as I've been watching YouTube, I realize it is basically a bunch of unsupervised children leaving comments. Pure hatred and f-bombs scattered with the n-word - why doesn't Al Sharpton get involved here?
I try hard to keep mine under wraps, and have been making my comment pages "by approval only". It is indeed a pain going through them and rejecting the bulk of them - I really don't approve of people letting their children run wild and wish they would quit pushing the burden of raising their children on me.
One thing people seem to feel it is ok to do on YouTube is post exposure ... which in my view it is not. Exposure ruins the trick for everyone else ... how would you like to go to the movie theater, and have some punk kid standing outside revealing the plot to the movie you want to watch? Not kewl - not kewl at all.
I imagine they want to feel superior to others, by boasting their knowledge. They really just make themselves look stupid - especially when they are wrong. So in response to several (now deleted) comments on my Floating Cigarette video, I have posted another clip of me performing the illusion ... only this time, it is being done for live audiences street style!
That's right, there is no camera trick ... there is no special lighting ... there are no assistants on the sides controlling the cigarette, it is not hanging from my mouth by a string ... it is an illusion that I have performed thousands and thousands of times for live audiences at places like 2001 Nightlife, Jamica Joe's, Coconut's Comedy Club, Barefoot Landing, and many many many more.
Anyone that tells you how it is done is most likely wrong, because if they could really do something like this ... they wouldn't share the secret with anyone.

PS: Yes I could do it with real cigarettes, but I haven't done it with a real cigarette since I quit smoking. Smoking is a bad habit, I don't smoke and neither should you.
