David Copperfield flies like a bird, pushing against the wind. He then flies through rotating hoops and then flies sealed inside a glass box.
No computer effects or edits are used in this illusion, and the perspex box has been previously inspected by two random audience members.
It is worth noting that even the woman he flies with does not know how the illusion is done!
This remains to this day one of the most spectacular flying illusion ever.
What a stunning and romantic performance!
From the CBS TV special "The Magic of David Copperfield XIV: Flying — Live The Dream" (1992)
