N.Y. magician: I sent myself to Las Vegas in a box

(via Syracuse Post-Standard) · March 6, 2009 · 7:56 PM

Wade Whitcomb, a magician by trade, says he once had a dream he was being shipped somewhere in a box. When his friend Ryan Breen asked him to pull off a publicity stunt to launch a new Web site, Whitcomb knew what he wanted to do.

They say they successfully shipped Whitcomb overnight UPS from Syracuse to Las Vegas in November in a crate they built. UPS says the odds that actually happened are slight. It suspects a hoax.
