  Thanks for the tip, Jaime. I looked it up, A NY Times article had this funny bit:
Now, in his family room, Ali did those parlor tricks for me and asked if I understood the central point. It was, he said, that "people can be fooled."

He stood up to demonstrate a levitation trick: by placing his heels together and flaring out his feet he rose up on the toes of one foot: It looked, from behind, as if he were actually lifting off. "Allah has given me the power to fly," he declared. "I don't believe it." "You don't believe Allah can do that?"

"I don't believe you'd take his name in vain for a silly trick."

His face lit up and he said, "You're not as dumb as you look," then headed off to get some more tricks.
