Street Magic and a guest appearance from the Gangster “Leave it to Beaver”

Had a ton of fun last night, after my afternoon trip to the beach, I’ve been catching up on emails and looking forward to the start of the training week today.  Being in Singapore last week, I didn’t stay as diligent on my training routine as I should have.  I’m 4 weeks out from my fight with Shannon The Cannon and am now training full time without teaching any of the morning grappling classes.  Special thanx to my new BJJ Purple Belt Wiktor Swennson…now 3-0 in MMA for covering the AM Class.

Last night I ran into this street magician.  He’s in Patong every weekend performing Magic for the tourist.  I think he has a ‘rubber thumb’ that he slips off his hand, leaving the knot attached…but I’m not sure.  The Magician asks a volunteer to tie his two thumbs together, then “breaks the knot”–and locks his arms around someone–showing that his thumbs are still tied together.

***I don’t know the Idiot at the front of the video…but thought he was a tool—lol.  Who storms across a street entertainers stage doing a “c’ walk”…I’m pretty sure he was American–but do we have to claim him!?—He is what would have happened if Leave It To Beaver grew up watching MTV :)
