Magician Dynamo, a relatively unknown illusionist, has performed a stunt in front of public by walking on the water across the River Thames. The magician, whose real name is Steve Frayne, made it half way across the stretch of the river in front of the Houses of Parliament in London before he was picked up by what appeared to be a River Police boat.

Stunned onlookers watched from Westminster Bridge as the magician recorded the stunt for his new TV show Dynamo: Magician Impossible.

So, is this real, or just some publicity for his new TV show?
