Thanks for posting this! I remember seeing this special many years ago and thinking it was the greatest illusion I had ever seen.

It's called an illusion, and yes it's possible

In a time when some magicians are too busy using lasers, a lot of smoke and siliconed dancers, it's nice to see something so simple in concept and far more magical.

Only through the illusion of cameras is it possible. Remember when Cris Angel WOWS his specs with HIS illusions? They're IN on it! When the blade rotated to cut him in half? It was spinning in the wrong direction!

And you know this because......a)YOU were there? b)YOU were told it wasn't? or c)Magic is REAL if we believe? Yeah, this isn't a camera trick much like Shrek ISN'T really an Ogre. He's a mildly offense oaf who has trumpets for ears and smells intolerably of swamp gas.

I know this because I know how the illusion is done.Simple.

Well, I apologize for underestimating your word. I gather you yourself are a bit of an illusionist, per chance? BTW forgive me for my earlier behaviour for I feel it is most intolerable than any swamp gas. :-)

i don't know how it is done, but i think MavisRileyJunior is right. Notice the light/darkness-setting and the restricted range of sight in the illusion-chamber, combined with the dark room-color (for example, remember, often you can't decide if a jacket is black or dark blue). Maybe i'm completely on the wrong track, but this was my idea when i saw the arm with the flowers coming out of the wall.

It's SO well done, that I can't get it out of my head that it isn't a camera trick! It looks too much like a scene from a movie, maybe an audience would have made it more realistic. That woman appearing was amazing!

This illusion is a good 100 years old and was created by Harry Keller. It's related to Pepper's Ghost and the ballroom in the Haunted Mansion at Disneyland.
