The Bible is a pretty good book too. There's some amazing magic effects in there.

The walking on water thing has been used recently. It's the parting the sea effect which I think will be fun to do.
Has Moses got a DVD out through Ellusionist yet? :wink:

No, but they're getting Garcia to teach it...

I meant the "turning water into wine" and "multiplying fish" stuff.

That's beginners stuff. Tommy Cooper did all that:
"Wine...water...water...wine.. Just like that!"
Jesus did some great effects, but I heard his pass was pretty bad.

Well, there weren't any direct witnesses, so I have a feeling he either used camera trickery or stooges.

I read that he had a good hot shot cut, but the card landed in the middle of a pond. He went to get it and a legend was born...

What was the topic again...?
