That's amazing. I have absolutely no idea how (assuming no camera trickery is involved) it was done.

But then, I suppose, that's the whole point...
 
Very clever indeed - the chainsaw could be done better - the blade bar has far too much flex on it :D
 
Two "Little People" ..or so they reckon.

This version is edited...there is a lot more that heppens in the routine they did not show...
And there are other versions around, where the "legs" walk off by themselves, he gets a member of the audience up to see the "top half"...
EDIT
heres the full version...where you can see some changes in clothing of the performers before the "putting back together"

Having seen the Utube clip I can now understand it better.

I agree with the "little people" hypothesis alhough the top half is, I think, a severely amputated normal person. I was right about the camera trickery in a way although I think it was just overenthusiastic editing. I couldn't work out how the stitched together person at the end was formed but the important bit was that they wheeled the "bits" off stage and then brought a different one back on.

Solved! - (But still impressive).
