Avatar's Sword Suspension

A woman is placed on the points of three razor sharp sabres, then two of the sabres are removed leaving her suspended from the point of one sword behind her neck.
The platform is then rotated 360 degrees, allowing the audience to view her from all sides.

Though Magic is NOT a puzzle to be solved, I assure you, there is no box, transparent or otherwise, beneath the girl. Neither are there any "invisible" wires suspending her from the ceiling. I have even performed this illusion outside, in full daylight.

Thank you. It is indeed an incredible illusion.

Occasionally you can see faint lines appearing beneath her. Could it be from a box on which she is resting?

[BudCranford]

Sorry, kfredson, but there is no box under her.

If there were, you would not see the legs of myself or my male assistants as we stand behind her, or as we rotated her platform.

I assume the box is transparent. Isn't that how it is usually done? If not, you've got a great illusion going there....
