Aaron Radatz: MF riders to disappear?!

I was just checking out master illusionist, Aaron Radatz'  official site, where his latest "special project" involves the following:


Join Aaron Radatz as he uses his magic in a whole new way, with one of the world's tallest and fastest roller coasters. Watch as Aaron takes 36 random roller coaster fanatics on a "Ride of A Lifetime". Eighteen of the riders will remain on the ride. Eighteen will disappear at one of the coasters fastest speeds. Where will the riders reappear? Stay tuned to this website for more information. You may even win a seat on Aaron Radatz's "Ride of A Lifetime".

Now this sounds like Millennium Force riders to me!   'll be interested to see if he pulls it off!

It would be especially interesting if those 18 riders that dissapear are dispersed througout the 18 who don't. Now that would be a trick! :)
Hmmmm, ok, so will the illusion involve one side of the train (left or right), or one HALF of the train (front/back), or something more complicated? :)

"Stay tuned to this website for more information."

This has been on his web site since last year, with no new information. I wonder how long we need to "stay tuned." See thread below:

Sounds to me like this just involves turning the photo camera off for 18 of the 36 folks, and then replacing their pictures with pictures of an empty train during a test run.  Or am I missing something?
Okay the thing is, they will probably disappear in the tunnel so, you know how that will go.

Actually the scoop on that is that it was supposed to be done last season, and they ran out of time or ran behind on another project so they have scrapped it until further notice. Aaron does'nt update his site all that often as you can tell. I worked with him and his crew last year when we were setting up his show for halloweekends. But he is good so be sure to catch this years show.
