The magician who can walk on water: Dynamo crosses the River Thames  on foot - without using a bridge
    
   By Gavin Allen
 
   Most magicians are capable of  unbelievable feats, after all it's their stock in trade, but how many  have unbelievable feet?
Dynamo,  whose real name is Steve Frayne, has showed some rather nifty feet as  he walked on water for his latest jaw-dropping stunt.   
The Bradford-born illusionist, 28, 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 a River Police boat.
 
  
 Biblical epic: Magician Dynamo poses while  standing in the middle of the River Thames where he performed an  illusion in which he appeared to walk on water 
 
    
 Tread carefully: Left, stunned onlookers watch  from Westminster Bridge as Dynamo gets his feet wet and, right, he heads  towards the Houses of Parliament 
     
 Stunned onlookers watched from  Westminster Bridge as the magician recorded the stunt for his new TV  show Dynamo: Magician Impossible.
Frayne has so far built his name on the celebrity circuit,  astounding a host of famous names with his tricks.
Among those who will testify to his skills are  the likes of Jay-Z, Coldplay, Will Smith, Busta Rhymes and Paris  Hilton.
His previous tricks  have included making Little Britain star Matt Lucas levitate before a  live audience at Arsenal's Emirates Stadium, and turning signed lottery  tickets into cash in front of Robbie Williams and Davina McCall as part  of BBC's Sport Relief live programme.  
Various celebrities  have taken part in his new series including heavyweight boxing champion  David Haye, Manchester rocker Ian Brown and pop star Natalie Imbruglia.
In episode one, he performs his trademark  levitation trick and physically moves a girl's tan line on the glamorous  Miami Beach.
