Looks like a good Cris Angel type stunt. But how do you know that he has never trained in martial arts?

I dunno, they wouldn't pull a cheap stunt for charity. And the guy who cuffed him seemed so confident the cuffs would work. If it was just a cheap trick, surely the guy would have been in on it? That or there is some serious flaw in the 'blue box' cuff system...

He seems to be a perfect fit for the MDC:

An India Kali Ninjutsu Master, who is also renowned Escapologist and practitioner of ancient Indonesian Penjak Silat has accepted a maximum security escape challenge from maximum security restraint expert, Pittsburgh-based Charles Caputo. This has never been attempted before under tested conditions by any escape artist and is being called The Worlds Most Difficult Maximum Security Escape Challenge.

Charles Caputo created this escape challenge says, No one has ever escaped from these maximum security restraints. Houdini and all other escape artists never attempted and avoided these types of restraint escapes all their lives. And it is even more so virtually impossible with the locks welded shut.

Escape Challenge defies the laws of physics as a genuine pair of Police handcuffs-- Smith & Wesson Model 100 double lock satin nickel finish handcuffs is used with a maximum security prisoner transport box-- Hiatt-Thompson Model 7082 Blue Box Cover. This is the ultimate in maximum security prisoner transport and no one has ever escaped from these two restraints combined. The Hiatt Blue Box is also locked with a maximum security pad lock and the Keyhole is Welded closed so once it is locked, no key will open this pad lock. Once the Smith & Wesson handcuffs are locked inside with the maximum security Hiatt Blue Box, it is impossible to unlock them. Under the most extreme scientific tested conditions, a maximum security expert and magician will physically search the Ninjutsu master including a state-of-the-art metal detector. The restraints are then applied under the most extreme conditions where the hands and wrists are compressed where any movement or twisting causes the handcuffs to become tighter and tighter with severe painful pressure.

Scientists, magicians and maximum security experts say this escape is impossible. Specially trained security experts are on stand-by should these maximum security restraints and locks need to be sawed and drilled to remove them. This special invitation event was for a live media performance that was covered by many news outlets.

The Ninjutsu Master has baffled scientists all over the world from Russia, Israel, France, Japan and USA in Psi energy research and mind-over-matter experiments. He is the only escape artist to open locks under scientific tested conditions. He opened a 4 billion code security lock without touching the lock considered impossible by scientists and security personnel. This Ninjutsu master also participates in experimental research projects with MIT, Russian scientists and secret government experiments that can not be revealed at this time.

The Ninjutsu Master is performing a mind-over-matter India Kali Ninjutsu escape. He is donating his performance for free in this never-before-seen event. This Escape Challenge is a fund raiser for the Salvation Army to raise money in the "Escape Hunger" theme. Ninjutsu master says, "This is definitely a test of the human spirit and I believe in the Salvation Army's work in over 100 countries makes them one of the best charities ever created. I dedicate my Ninjutzu Escape on November 29th to unite sponsors, benefactors and all of mankind to support the Salvation Army's mission to help people escape hunger."


I wonder what reasons he gives for not taking the MDC?

Has anyone verified any of the information given?

I did a search for this Charles Caputo to find out more about his credentials as a 'Maximum Security Restraint Expert' or to see of his 'Escape Challenge' was a general challenge like the MDC.

I've turned up nothing as yet. But interestingly came across this quite by accident:

May not be the same person?

Seems like Joey Nuzum is ideal fodder for the MDC challenge though.

I did a quick google-fu on Caputo as well, and couldn't pin point him either. All the big words about expert this and expert that and nothing comes up fast, makes me suspicious.

And if you haven't seen Joey Nuzum's 'amazing fire starting abilities', check this out:

So, cheap magic tricks then... :relieved:

No links from the site to any of the reports though.

I just Googled Dr. Berthold Schwarz M.D. and I don't now if he's 'known' around here but he has a large body of work all seemingly pointed toward a belief in the existence of the Paranormal so I can only imagine the 'scientific level' of his supposed "Scientific Testing Demonstrations" .
