For my show I am building many illusions and I am stuck for the last one. I want to do a vanish of some kind where I vanish. I don't want it to be a box trick really I want something EPIC! I was thinking of bringing the first row of the audiance and making them vanish what do you think? Any suggestions as to what I should do?

Thanks,
Kyle B.

Something bloody & gross could be interesting?

Cutting off some limbs perhaps? an explosion & vanish?

Well I already have the Exploding Grandmother trick. So I think I need a tasteful way to end.

The front row vanish is good but sounds to similar to Copperfields '13' illusion. Which he got from Alain Choquet. How about VAnishing yourself and all your assistants at the same time. Saying "the show is over and we are off to the next venue" Poof---you and everyone working for you is gone. End of show as noone is left!

No I mean the audiance never leves there seats we just momentarily lift a curtain around them and there gone then I would vanish.

Leaving them seated is probably too difficult but on-stage they can easily be vanished with a back-drop replacement under cover of smoke and flash.

By the way - whatever happened to your Flaming Catfish trick?

Dear Blurr,

David Copperfield got the illusion "13" from Gary Ouellet, not Alain Choquette.
Best regards,

Flaming Catfish? I have allot of ideas and I only keep a few could you remind e what it consisted of?
