From the magic makers website:

also although this is a flourish forum, I thought I would also include how he ripped of the (David Blaine) Healed and Sealed Soda Can effect:

Oh my god. This is ridiculous. I wonder what Lee will do when he sees that Magic Fakers has done this. I wouldn't be surprised if he promptly sued their a**es off. They deserve it.

Hello,

Dont start emailing Lee. He already knows. He knew way before any of you all did. That's all he needs right now is 1000 people emailing him with the same thing he knew a week or two ago. Lee has this well under his control and knows exactly what he is doing to handle this ordeal. Please don't waste your time and more importantly Lee's time. I think its bull that they did this but things are being taken care of.

Why should Anders Moden be emailed about David Blaine? He did not rip off this effect. He just performed the basic routine on TV. Nothing wrong with that. Anders Moden knows about Blaine performing this on TV because David got permission from him to do it. Also, when you buy this effect it clearly states on the instructions "As performed by David Blaine on TV", at least mine does anyway.... don't know if they are still printing that on there, but David did nothing wrong. He does not even take credit for creating this effect. Now magic makers on the other hand.... They are making magic alright. It's magic how they have not got their pants sued off by ripping off the creators of original effects. Just my 2 cents.

I talked to Anders Moden about a month ago and he is laughing and joking about it, back then, he recorded his DVD for Healed and Sealed which he is going to sell sometime probably soon.

He doesn't seem too concerned about it.

I´ve never seen "Ghost Kings" for Sale anywhere, and the video doesn't work either.

Did they maybe take it down?

That video kills me!!

The can is on the table laying down....open!!! But he still takes 6 or 7 good chugs from it when he picks itup?? What's the logic there?

What a freaking joke.

Lonnie, you better remove that link, exposure.

Anyway, saw the video of "crushed and cured" and laughted my butt off, you said it. Why the heck does he pretend to drink from a empty can?

Oh well.

Phil: I think they meant to mail me about the Crushed and Cured DVD that has been out for a while. No need to.

As this isn't the right forum you can see my comments here if you like:

I never bought items from that site, I'm just sick of what they are doing, stole from other people, teach again but wrong method...

And the worst fact is still: They are alive and well.
