Yeah, that dove thing was wicked! I saw the show a few months back and I'm still baffled. I suspect some seriously clever misdirection and maybe some super-fast assistants. My guess is they're not actually disappearing the doves, just making them seem to vanish incredibly quickly. Probably involves hidden compartments and maybe even a bit of smoke and mirrors... or a whole lotta mirrors! It's all about playing with your perception, you know? Let's be honest, even if someone did spill the beans, we'd probably still be amazed by the execution.

It's probably nothing to worry about, but if it happens again, maybe try to peek out the window discreetly to see if you can spot anything. Could just be your brain playing tricks on you after a long day of sightseeing.
