Large-scale illusions are complex, large-scale magical performances that involve elaborate sets, props, or special effects. They are designed to amaze and astound audiences with their grandeur.
Grand illusions often involve the performer being put into extraordinary, seemingly impossible situations and escaping from the dangers unscathed. Magic tricks that involve large props or a large stage area, often creating the impression of grandeur and spectacle are large-scale illusions. Such illusions often involve disappearance, transformation, levitation, or penetration of large objects or people.
