Dynamo spotted levitating above The Shard

By Inderdeep Gill on Wednesday, August 27, 2014

Last year Dynamo got a huge amount of attention for the Pepsi bus stunt, but this year he has taken his magic to a whole new level.

Today, Dynamo was spotted levitating ABOVE The Shard – which is roughly 1,000ft high!

At 2.50pm today, the amazing magician posted a photo of himself up in the clouds, captioning it: “The view is great up here #lookup.”

The stunt has taken off on Twitter (as of 4.37pm: 268 tweets), with many tweeting photos. So far, the stunt has gained coverage on Daily Star, Daily Mail, Mirror, Evening Standard, Time Out and London24.

Since the stunt, Dynamo has taken to his Instagram account to unveil a count down to the return of his show on Watch.

Whilst it was a great picture led stunt, it did somewhat fail as people pointed out that they could see the wires.

Today Dynamo posted a YouTube video which aimed to put peoples minds at ease. After explaining the ‘wire image’ was taken during the rehearsal of the levitation, he tells us to tune in to the show where all will be revealed. The show starts Sept 4th on Watch.
