I want to say its fake...but I don't understand it, lol

[freydis]

Yup, hoax.

[TheGimp]

read about that to....some of the comments were funny referring to Chris Angel about people sayin its a mirical how he walks on water...no no its not just well placed tight fitting net or invisible Plexiglas

[Eevee]

Haha! I had a feeling it was fake...

So... the only "proof" that it was a hoax is this guy replicating it? That's pretty shaky. Not saying I believe this was true, but... human bodies have done way stranger things than that. So who really knows.

Occam's Razor. The simplest explanation tends to be the best/right one.

Pomba is right, weirder shit has happened. Not saying I believe it either, can't say one way or the other really.

I can walk on water, too.

[Tyger]

Geeze. I wouldn;t even be able to probably put my finger in my eye, let alone a sharp edged rock...

Sooo faakkkeee.... lol

[candyman]

Being where she is couldn't she at least have tried to get a rare talent like obtaining peace? At least get some of those people on a lunch date together...damn crystals don't do anything but look pretty!

I've actually heard of this condition before. It's called "full of shit."

I like to keep the door open on just about anything, but this one just seems a bit too much. I have no idea how long it would actually take a crystal to form, but I'm guessing it would take a lot longer than 24 hours to pop out as many as the little girl did, one at a time. Of course, this isn't taking into account all the things that can't be explained by science, so the door is still open, and I wouldn't be betting any of my fingers on it just yet.

I would love to see the chemical makeup of the crystals. There are certain chemicals that will crystalize on contact with air. Crystilization is an affect of cooling. There is always a transfer of heat when a crystal is formed. The faster the crystal forms, the more heat is transfered.

I would imagine they are putting some solution in her eyes that uses the heat of her body to "cure" the solution and produce the crystal. I can't imagine it's all that good for her.

anyone else notice how it looked like little pieces of glass and not quartz at all?
