David Blaine’s biggest tricks and how he does them


[post_page_title]Bullet catch[/post_page_title]
This stunt would see Blaine catch a .22 caliber bullet in his mouth, despite risking his life. He used a cup to protect his teeth from damage and the secret to this trick lies in that device. The trick was a clever use of video editing as Blaine was not really going to risk his life.

Bullet catch

You see Blaine catch the bullet, but the cup is actually rigged to blow smoke and vibrate to make it look like the bullet hits. The video then goes in slow motion to show the bullet hit the cup, but again this is camera trickery. Something was shot into his mouth, but with just enough speed to look convincing enough to fool the audience.
