NOVA scienceNOW | The Heist with Neil deGrasse Tyson and Apollo Robbins 

It's awesome, how PBS knew that people would want to see both Dr. Neil and Dr. Apollo together. And so they went straight to the point that even Neil who is an incredible scientist can be "had" even by Apollo's extreme techniques and I dare say uniquely sharped. P.S: Without demonstrating anything like "being less smart or smarter". "Everyone is a genius but if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, then it will live its whole life thinking that he is stupid". Which is wonderful and interesting.

two of my favorite persones in the same video,awesome

Not only that, the building they're in front of is the Bellagio, which is one of the casinos Oceans Eleven steals from

Neil is the coolest scientist I have seen IMO.

Yeah, it looks like the ending of Ocean's eleven where everybody departs from overlooking the hotel with fountains.

Excellent exposition!

Ocean's 14 with Apollo Robbins !!

Good biographical story on Apollo Robbins in the Jan. 2, 2013 issue of "The New Yorker".

This was badass.

I love it!

@AncientAtheist i know it's a joke but pluto was never there to be lost in the first place xD..

Vaya extra!!!!

VECHETA WHATS THE POWERLEVEL OF HIS PICKPOCKETING?!

It's mitnick!

Wait a minute... His favourite pen was a sharpie AKA the marker every magician uses... Could Apollo have fooled us by pretending to fool Tyson by pretending to fool Mitnick? Foolception! Also, anyone know if Apollo ever released a DVD of his stage show?

that would be such an awesome skill to have when you REALLY needed it lol

Actually, that's one of the hypotheses about christianity. Also, another interesting hypothesis was that he had access to higher technology, somehow. If this is true, the technology probably isnt that great in todays standards, but if he did have technology higher than what they had during his time, he would most definitely be considered god-like.

Maybe that's what Jesus was... just a really really good magician/illusionist back in the days.
