We know this is from a while ago, but this is the first time we’ve seen an official copy of the video pop up online. Criss Angel does a (reasonably impressive) Doug Henning impression complete with a legendary awkward/awesome meeting between “Doug” and Criss.

From the Twitter of comedienne Whitney Cummings:
There is basically no physical difference between me and Doug Henning.
You make the call. After all, they might be casting for the movie soon.
The Guest:
