Here are two versions of an illsions that are rather funny, but the reaction of the crowd (at least in the first one) is what will get you laughing. When I found this first illusion on YouTube I assumed that maybe a fake head was used.




However after viewing the same, or at least a similar illsion below on stage, it is apparent that the head isn't fake. Props of some kind are being used instead.



Anyone care to speculate in the comments on how this is done? I think the performer must be ducking down (while looking forward) with props to keep the cape or jacket rigid.
