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.

I think that happens once every month anyway.

Copperfield is a slacker compared to this kid.

That would be great. There are plenty of live streamers who could do it with the click of the mouse.
Now that right there is pure 'lunacy!'
Save the Children...
He’s teamed up with the UN.
No thanks.
And from 2022...
If that last one's behind a paywall, the headline says it all.
Liz, an FIY ping.
Didn’t Gru already do this?
Why Pakistan is so suspicious of Save the Children
WTG, Copperfield.
“ 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.
You beat me to it. I was just about to post the exact same thing. Good on you.
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.
