“. . .the doctors report numerous long stiches on the assistant’s stomach, allegedly from being ‘sawed in half’ six too many times.”

"'Just prior to David himself walking through the fan, [the assistant] was accidentally pulled into the vortex of the moving fan blades, causing injury to his arm and face."I wonder how Copperfield was planning on walking through it. lol

I have seen Copperfield perform this illusion live. It is stunning.

Here ya go idiot, you better start with the basics.
Copperfield was with his assistant when he woke up after surgery on Thursday morning and presented him with a children's magic kit as a get well present.

So have I. I was sitting about 20 feet away as they danced into the fan and then - poof - they were standing about 30 feet BEHIND me!!!
Forget the moving fan.....how they went from one location to another is still mystifying to me.

Cleverly staged. I assume that’s not “Brandon” he’s groping in the video ...

I’m going with video screens under the platform that play video synced to the lights behind on the stage so it looks like the platform is only frame underneath- They drop behind the screens and end up underneath the auditorium - the silhouettes are also video being played on the side screens they put up-
OR- its magic.
