It's related to understanding the laws that govern the universe. The ancients understood these laws and have passed the lessons to their students. A student is granted audience to these lessons because he/she has been deemed trustworthy by the teacher. It would take twenty years of cultivation through practice to develop one's skills. And, that is only the beginning of "the path". No one I have known exhibits these skills, except to teach a lesson. To show off is only an exhibition of one's ego, and is viewed as a weakness in character.
In the words of the teacher, "Trying to cultivate one's self through words is like farming by mouth. You cannot plow the land with words." In other words, only one who has direct experience and practice of the lesson could understand it. Using the LAW(TAO) is also called "the highest form of the healing arts."
David Blaine might or might not have a gift. What I see from him is not that unusual. Every day there are accounts of supernormal happenings.

that's pretty cool if that's how he does it, but sucks that they would "edit" things out on TV. :-(
