Special thanks to Propboy for all the help.

That's a lot of guts!
Super cool Fred.
So, where do the guy's feet go (ie: is he behind the entire box, laying across it...)?

Yes mr.chicken he is laying down with his feet behind
the box.

I am standing on a milk crate, behind two mirrors at 45° from each side wall.

Never seen anyone do it that way before.

I'd love to see the back of this. What is the purpose of the mirrors? Looks totally amazing. Great job.

The mirrors are reflecting the side walls, giving the illusion that there is a back wall.
There isn't. Thats where my body is.

Mr. Chicken:
actually I was thinking of re-making the guts. I got a little caried away. I would preffer less guts, more narrow.

Now I am really intrigued. I love things that use mirrors, it's so magical. I would love to see a diagram of how it is set up. The more I look at it, the more perplexed I become.

I'll try to take a quick 360° video of it tommorrow.
I think that will clear things up.

Okay,
here is the video. not 360° but now you can see the back and how the illusion works.

I guess my next project is going to be cleaning up the garage.
Funny, it didnt seem that messy when I was down there?!
