TOP 8 THRILLING MAGIC ACTS OF THE WORLD

David Copperfield performed the amusing magic just next to the death .The performer is laid on a table under a gaint blade, which is set to descend upon them under the control of a timing mechanism. After that the performer is enclosed in a box. The saw is then started to get down gradually. After a while the sides of the box fall away to reveal the performer struggling to escape the manacles. Finally the saw drops on the magician before he has time to escape himself. The blade slices right through the performer's body. The two halves of the table are rolled apart so that the performer is clearly separated into two sections. The performer then appears to command the whole process to reverse: The body halves go back together, the saw rises, the box closes. Finally the performer emerges unharmed from the box.

The ice was transparent and resting on an elevated platform to show that he was actually inside the ice the entire time.

4. Vanished the Statue Of Liberty : (David Copperfield)  

TOP 8 THRILLING MAGIC ACTS OF THE WORLD

Making the Statue of Liberty seems disappear on live television (in 1983), in the illusion, Copperfield raises a big curtain on statue of Liberty Island before lowering it again a few seconds later to reveal that the space where the statue once stood is now empty. A helicopter hovers overhead to give an aerial view of the illusion, and indeed the statue appears to have vanished and only the circle of lights surrounding the statue remain. To prove that it is really gone, Copperfield then passes two searchlights through the space where the statue stood, to show there is nothing blocking the way. A live audience sits in an enclosed viewing area, and most of the camera shots are from the same area.

5. Swallowed a Jackhammer : (Thomas Blackthorne)

TOP 8 THRILLING MAGIC ACTS OF THE WORLD

Swallowing a sword is pretty amazing itself but how about swallowing a working drill ?? Thomas Blackthorne did just that. During a tv show he swallows a running jackhammer, his signature act. This went live on the successful German TV show "Clever! - Die Show, die Wissen schafft" presented by Barbara Eligmann and Wigald Boning.

6. Double caught bullets : (Penn And Teller)

TOP 8 THRILLING MAGIC ACTS OF THE WORLD

The bullet catch is a conjuring illusion in which a magician appears to catch a bullet fired directly at him. The trick usually involves a gun which is loaded and operated by someone with a knowledge of firearms to demonstrate that no deception is being used. In most instances, the bullet is marked by an audience member so that it can be identified later. Great efforts are usually made to show that the person firing the gun does not come in contact with the person catching the bullet. When magicians Penn and Teller perform the bullet catch, in which each simultaneously catches a bullet shot by the other, a line is drawn down the center of the stage, demonstrating that neither will cross to the other side. The guns that Penn and Teller use in their effect are fitted with laser sights to add to the suspense and drama of the trick.

7. Removed the front teeth of a girl : ( David Blaine)

TOP 8 THRILLING MAGIC ACTS OF THE WORLD

David Blaine, on his "Drowned Alive" special, did a trick where he reached in a girl's mouth and pulled out two of her teeth. The girl was screaming, and licking the gaps in the front of the mouth where her teeth had been. Blaine then put her teeth in his mouth and spit it right back into place.

8. Floated over the Grand Canyon :(David Copperfield)

TOP 8 THRILLING MAGIC ACTS OF THE WORLD

David Copperfield floated over the Grand Canyon in his 6th television special, The Magic of David Copperfield VI: Floating over the Grand Canyon. No television or green screen effects are used in the making of this effect - doing so would have been totally impossible because in 1984 the technology did not exist as it does today.
