I was 10 and I remember this being a big thing back then.

Watch the performance here:

I remember more than what is shown in the clip like why a big piece of black material isn't covering it, it's not lowered or lifted, etc.

Then I read Ask Yahoo's possible explanation they found (though I recommend watching the video first before getting spoiled)

Neat, thanks for the links. smile.gif

I liked the one lady's comment that she'd "never seen a Statue of Liberty disappear the way this one did." ...Because there are lots of Statues of Liberty out there disappearing all of the time. tongue.gif
