Yes, it was TV illusion. David Copperfield once described how he made a mountain (or was it a volcano) disappear. This was one of those highly publicized, semi-annual illusions.
IIRC it was accomplished through audience placement and very large mirrors and glass....and of course what you can get away with using TV technology.
