Watch his left hand release the pre-placed line for the shirt to fall. A small mirror in his hand bends the light. The finale was clear tubing with small lasers or some kind of light mounted inside and well-rehearsed hand movements including putting his thumb over the end of one tube making you think he broke the light beam in 2 then moving his thumb to make you think the light beam instantaneously jumped back. The other half of the light beam was just another laser switched off and on. At about 28 seconds you'll see a stray flash from one light that shouldn't have been there. I'll give him credit for good hand movements and timing for the finale. That's my analysis, maybe I'm wrong.; 2:17 PM, June 20, 2007
