One of David Copperfield's most impressive illusions was making the Statue
of Liberty vanish. He raised a curtain in front of the crowd, made a very
poetic speech, dropped the curtain and the statue was gone, with just a
couple of helicopters circling overhead shining spotlights on the bare
base
of the monument.


I saw that program, must have been twelve to fifteen years ago. As I recall
they used a split screen; one side was supposed to be a live TV picture, the
other was supposed to be a live radar image. I thought it odd that the
helicopters were not displayed on the radar image as they should have been.
