Minute of Fame with Max Maximov

Yesterday "Minute of Fame" began on the central (1) TV station. There were many good contestants but I especially liked Max Maximov from Latvia who showed tricks with spoons and forks. He bent a lot of them in different ways, rubbing and on distance, he spiraled them and jurors couldn't unbend the spoons. He was so young, charming and self-confident! The perfomance was brilliant.

It is interesting that nobody said even a word about Uri Geller though for me his influence and influence of the show Phenomenon (The Next Uri Geller) were evident, the boy looked exactly like a contestant from the show (sure he could become a winner).

Max had big success, people were amazed and asked how he is doing this and is it a gift or result of training, and Max answered mistily. He works as a metal artist (craftsman) and it seems likes metal a lot!:)

I just think that perfomance like this is not for big audience. Though it looks great on TV screen but even the judges of a contest which were close to the stage couldn't see the tricks well (and Max had to repeat the trick specially for jury just near their table), what to say about other spectators.



Video and photo of Max's perfomance can be found here:
