Magic often boggles our minds. Magicians, in their spooky, undermining attitude end up shaking our very beliefs of sanity and normalcy. Women floating in the air, birds fluttering out of fires, bodies getting cut into pieces and then joining again... the list is long and full of confusions. Did you too ever wonder how these impossible things even happened? Well, turns out it is simple science. We have debunked 10 of the world's craziest magic tricks, read on!

WALKING ON WATER!

Remember that day when Dynamo casually walked over the Thames river? Not one bit of his body submerging in the water? No he is not Jesus and neither does he have supernatural tendencies. He is just a really gifted illusionist. Turns out the magic word here is plexi glass - a support that is kept under the water surface and has the exact same density as that of water so making it look like the person is actually walking on the surface of water!

GIRL FLOATING IN THE AIR!

Who wouldn't want to float in the air right? Well turns out, it is not really possible. The assistant girls with all these magicians are not blessed with superpowers - not to worry! The secret here is a table with an L shaped lever and a expandable plank. That's all you need to float in the air!

FIRE OR PIGEON!

Darcy Oake performed a "dove coming out of the flames trick" with such finesse on the Britain's Got Talent stage that the whole world stood still in awe. Turns out he is just a great illusionist. His hand pocket had the dove all along and the fire he sparked was not a feather but actually flash paper. It creates a big spark of fire and you momentarily lose focus from his hands. This gives him enough time to pull out the bird!

CAR DECK LEVITATING!

This is just some simple magnetic effect people. No need to fret the next time some random guy walks upto you and asks you to choose a card. When the magician asks you to place the card, he is practically nudging you to keep it in exactly the place he wants you to. So when he shuffles it and pretends to pick one out, its just the one that he knew all along!

CAN ON A CARD!

Some of you must have seen this trick right? Well turns out its not a miracle afterall. It is just two cards stuck to each other that create a base for the can to stay suspended in air. It is not as tough as you think!

TWIST THAT IPHONE!

Magician Dynamo casually twisted his iphone in front of thousands of people on the streets. How did he do it? Is his phone magical too? No. Its a simple process of getting another piece of back cover and just being quick with the fingers!

LEMON TRICK!

Jamie Raven did a lemon trick on Britains Got Talent and he blew everyone's minds. The guy took a signed note from the judge and placed it inside a lemon and then revealed it when he cut open the lemon. Secret? Well the lemon had a hole that he had cut out from the rear end!

WATER INTO ICE?

No. Magicians cannot double as deep freezers and that too so quick with the freezing? no way! Turns out the concept is rather simple and perhaps stuff that we tested out in school. Take a sponge and a cube of ice. place these inside a cup. Take water and pour it over this. The water will be absorbed by the sponge and what will remain is just the ice cube you placed inside!

THE GREAT ESCAPE!

This is one trick that has made all of us squirm with stress. Turns out its easy peasy - all you need is good team mates, loose hinges and a handcuffs that can easily give way. This trick is so simple but also the kind that can be easily messed up by a lot of people!

SAWING HIMSELF APART!

Do not worry it is not real. It is basically 2 people co-acting something together. Of course lighting, machinary and acting skills help a long way in making this act successful!
