Default Makng the Statue of Liberty Vanish

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.

Heavy sigh I don't suppose he could do this trick again. Everybody would
be up in arms about the helicopters flying too close to the statue and over
a crowd of people.

I suppose he could still make a Lear jet disappear.

If you go around beating the Bush, don't complain if you rile the animals.
