Magician’s assistant is handcuffed, steps into a sack that is tied at the top, inside a trunk that is then locked and raised into the air, high enough for the magician to stand under it, on top of the base.
The magician briefly raises a cloth then drops it to reveal that he’s gone and the assistant is there in his place. The trunk is lowered to the base, unlocked, and the bag is untied to reveal the magician in handcuffs.
