Cutting off arm


I just saw the episode where he cuts off the arm of an audience member. How come they didn't show it reattached. I know this is far fetched but what if Criss paid him $5 million to cut off his arm? I know I'm stretching it ...

The guy was an actor with one arm. His other arm was a very well made fake with mechanical controls within the fingers. So, they cut off the fake arm and Criss' assistant controls the mechanism within the fake wrist to make it look liek the fingers are pointing or clenching.
