David Copperfield flies like a bird, pushing against the wind. He then flies through rotating hoops and then sealed inside a glass box, to prove there is nothing supporting him. This was first shown on television during 1992, for Copperfield's 14th magic special, The magic of David Copperfield XIV: Flying - Live the dream. No computer effects or edits are used in this illusion, and the perspex box has been previously inspected by two random audience members. The people who are seated around him on stage are the two back rows of the theatre, who David invited to join him on stage. It is worth noting that even the woman he flies with, does not know how the illusion is done! This remains to this day the most spectacular flying illusion ever seen. ================================== Exposure comments will not be approved. ==================================

David Copperfield's most famous illusion. In which he saws himself in half in front of a live audience of thousands of people. At one point, you can hear a man at the back shout "Move the feet", and Copperfield does. He invented this trick and it became a new landmark in magic history. To this day it has not been surpassed and was originally performed in The magic of David Copperfield X: The Bermuda Triangle. ================================== Exposure comments will not be approved. ==================================
Astounded by the work of illusionist, David Copperfield?

David Copperfield teleports himself and a member of the audience to Hawaii from hundreds of miles away in seconds, in front of an audience of over twenty thousand people in a round theater, completely surrounded. This clip is taken from The Magic of David Copperfield XVII: Tornado of Fire, and was performed thousands of times all over the world in his tour "Portal", which ran from 2000 to 2002. ================================== Exposure comments will not be approved. ================================== Due to the many theories on how this could possibly be done, here are a few of the theories and why they are false: "The picture is not the same" - It does look slightly different, but that is because of the low quality of Youtube and the camera angle and the glare of the sun. The photo is still signed, and has exactly the same random people, with exactly the same poses; hand positions and everything. It is the same photo. "The initals are not the same" - Yes they are, though they are seen from a different angle. "It was all pre-recorded, and they digitally put the photo and the initials on it." - Impossible. Firstly, this was filmed back in 2000, when no such technology existed. Secondly even today it is not THAT good, it is still flimsy and looks unrealistic. Thirdly it is impossible to "digitally project" an image on to a 3D object, such as an arm. "Its a green-screen" - Firstly, back in 2000 green screen effects were not this good; you'll notice they don't have any ...
