I had to vote for Criss because a) he seems more down to earth and b) Blaine's "how long can I ..." tricks are just a matter of mind - not illusion or showmanship.
However ... ... when we were in Vegas 3 years ago for Christmas, I was selected from the audience (1 of 10) at a Copperfield show to disappear. It was cool to know how it's done and really cool to be up on stage and cooler to meet him and get a picture BUT he is kind of stuck up. When he met us after the show, we got a handshake, a signed picture and "if you tell anyone, you will break thousands of hearts and can you really live with that so just keep your trap shut". Disappointing for sure.
