As is customary, clips from the World Magic Awards last night have trickled on to YouTube this morning. Here is Budapest-based female illusionist Katalin Czékmann. Click AFTER THE JUMP for Joseph Gabriel’s performance.

    Hi guys! I'm married to Joseph Gabriel. The TV producers wanted me to perform Joseph's original cloak illusion for the award ceremony. It is the same illusion Joseph performed on the World's Greatest Magic TV special. :) Katalin

    Joe: I believe your'e right. I read that Jonathan invented that method.
  • The Twins never before seen clear sawing looks surprisingly like the one Charlotte Pendragon used at the Daytona Festival of Magic.
  • That floating bird thing always cracks me up.. pretty sure they can hang in the air without help already right? Hee hee.
  • Oh, my bad... I just visited Google and got some answers.
  • Don't I remember Joseph Gabriel doing the exact same illusion Katalin did awhile back on television? Or am I just delusional?... If it IS the same illusion (same costumes and everything), was it Gabriel's original creation (and did he sell it to Katalin), or is it some widely available routine from a builder? I mean, almost everything was identical to Gabriel's presentation of it... But again, I could just be imagining things...

    What, Criss didn't get an award? What's wrong with these people? I guess there was no 'Video' award.
  • Hubbita-hubbita BOOMSKI! She's GREAT!
