    I think its fake. But the guy stopped doing the trick when animal rights people started asking how it was done.

    thats pretty cool... looks pretty real but it doesnt make sense.. you can like see some of them trying to catch up to the others by moving their fins faster.

    yea we did it with worms in science class and did somthing similar but to make it win a worm race. you make it eat or cut open and insert a small magnet into the stomach and from there its easy to make it move and do whatever you want. cruel but they were just fishing worms

    I think it's magnets because he drops that cloth to cover the under side of the table before the "magic" starts. Interesting to watch though.

    I do too. I used to dabble in magic and one of the easiest ways to hide the fact that you are hiding something from the audience is to make the subterfuge part of the act. Someone clearly crawled from under the big fish tank to the bottom of the little fish tank.
