David Copperfield plans to make moon disappear in epic stunt 30 years in making

David Copperfield is taking his powers of illusion to the stars.

In an interview with "Today," the magician announced the plans for his latest stunt.

"I’m going to make the moon disappear," he said.

"It’s taken 30 years of work, that’s literally 30 years of our lives to develop it," he said. "And there’s multiple methods to make it work, and I’m collaborating with Save the Children, an amazing organization to show the world the difference one person can make."

He continued, "If one person can make the moon disappear from the sky, imagine how together we can make poverty and hunger and danger disappear for our children on Earth."

The illusion is set to take place in February 2024, and rehearsals are already underway.

"They’re going well," Copperfield said. "In fact, I’ve been testing them the past few months and people have reported seeing strange things in the sky at night all around the country."

"So, if anybody [at] home sees anything weird up in the sky, please let me know by tagging me on Instagram or Twitter or Facebook," he added.

He'll probably just do the same thing he did to make the Statue of Liberty "disappear":

Here's How David Copperfield Made The Statue Of Liberty Disappear

Let's have the highest resolution, ultra low-level & daylight media cameras cover it from every continent and ocean simultaneously, and then let's see if we can't see the moon. Add to that some long lense ultra high-speed aerial video coverage...Plus, it should be "visible from space" as well. Top it off with former NASA Apollo astronauts and their real time commentary...Now that I'd like to see!

That would be great. There are plenty of live streamers who could do it with the click of the mouse.

"I’m going to make the moon disappear," he said.

Now that right there is pure 'lunacy!'

And from 2020...

Save the Children can resume funding bids following sexual abuse scandal This article is more than 3 years old Charity has made ‘significant steps’ to improve safeguarding and can now apply for government funds two years on from withdrawal

And from 2022...

More than 40 Save the Children International staff sacked over abuse, bullying or safeguarding concerns

Save The Children misled public while failing to deal with sexual harassment allegations against top bosses, report reveals Charity says it apologised to women involved after ‘serious failures’ in how it dealt with complaints

If that last one's behind a paywall, the headline says it all.

Liz, an FIY ping.

“ He continued, “If one person can make the moon disappear from the sky, imagine how together we can make poverty and hunger and danger disappear for our children on Earth.”

Another bogus illusion.

master of illusion.

It’s an illusion you can get rid of hunger, war, poverty.

Only person can. And He will. And wipe every tear from every eye.

Copperfield isn’t a pimple on the ass of the likes of Doug Henning or Harry Blackstone Jr.

Those men are incredibly skilled at sleight of hand and legerdemain. Their tricks work because they lay hands on common objects and make them do things no one would imagine possible.

Copperfield’s tricks work with mechanical gimmickry. The trick works either all by itself or with a flip of a switch or turn of a knob. He doesn’t even have to be there for it to work. Which really isn’t much different from CGI.
