David Copperfield says that the secret to his success
"is to consider nothing impossible." In a Toledo Blade
article Copperfield breaks down the process of how he creates a
new illusion, saying that on average it takes around two and a
half years to develop a new illusion while the flying routine took
a decade. Discussing how he became a member of the SAM at the age
of 12 (youngest person ever admitted) he said, "I think it
was a fluke... I had a friend [Ed Mishell] who was in the
organization and I worked really hard to impress him. And I guess
I did." To read the Mar. 22 story by David Yonke click: HERE.(3/24)
