Scary, but amazing magic trick. I wonder HOW he did it?

After years of scary flash movies/videos, I have a predisposition not to click on such links with the word "scary" in them.

But that was a really sick (in all it's meanings) trick. :D Disappointed with that cut away shot. Although that doesn't entirely explain how half a woman was crawling on the floor...unless...

Anyone know of Rosemarie Siggins, a middle age woman with no legs and travells around via skateboard?

Whilst reading up about Rosemarie Siggins, the woman this video reminded me of, it seems to be that she is the woman in the video.

Those pictures may not look like that "Emily" woman in the video, but what about:

The cut away shot I mentioned earlier (1:12) where anything could have been done actually plays a huge part in this illusion.

Cut away shots are very disappointing in a magic trick as you might as well have swapped the woman for an elephant and said she transformed into that.

Disappointed with that cut away shot.

Anyway, check this video out. It explains how it was done, with 2.5 women.

1 contortionist, 1 full woman, 1 half woman...

Most plausible answer, imo and makes sense out of the other oddities in the video.

Well, I'm looking for very good sources to learn about doing illusions or magic tricks. They must include the 'slight o hand' trick. I'm also into palm reading - know any good starting points? I want a source people who went through the stuff recommends. Does anyone know any good sites/books/videos on learning about illusions/magic tricks and palm reading? Have a nice day. Thanks.
