My daughter found a video of Criss Angel spoilers. It broke her heart to see just how the mind got freaked. Just tricks, she said. Which one is a trickster and which one is a better illusionist?

The spoilers were found when she googled "Criss Angel" and one of the sites had the spoilers. Sorry I don't know the website.

That is actually a very hard question to answer. I have watched both of them VERY closely and VERY carefully (DVR's ROCK!!!). I don't really think it has to do with who is better they both very good at what they do, but Blaine is more established and has better resources. They both use camera trickery and staged audiences to pull of the "illusion". They both try to be odd. But to his credit Blaine does go beyond tricks and illusion and focuses on feats of human endurance(i.e. the water tank, frozen in ice, standing on that post for days) where as Angel is content to do just "illusions" and mind trickery with staged audiences, but without the resources of Blaine, maybe this is all he can do. I am not a "fan" of either, I watch to see how they trick you. Has anyone seen David Copperfield.LOL!

Criss Angel is way better than David Blaine. David Blaine just bugs me more than anything. Kind of a shame he didn't drown in his giant fish bowl.

I haven't seen David Blains stuff but I hear he is amazing. I actually have had conversations with people who think that Criss is really levitating or walking on water. They don't understand that he is just really good at illusions.

Blaine. He has a much stronger "stage" presence, I think. Where Criss is more outgoing, Blaine plays it so close to the vest, you fill in your own "eerie" factor.

As far as skill goes, I think they're about even.

Well, Blaine was good until he started doing escape artist stuff and stopped doing illusions. I never really liked Angel too much to begin with but at least he is still doing illusions.

When I saw Angel use a lady with no legs in his cut a person in half trick I lost all interest in watching that show.
