Illusion: China amazed by transparent cloth which 'makes a person disappear'

Video garners over 21.4 million views and has been shared by various news media

Chinese web users have become intrigued by a new product that claims to be a quantum of 'invisibility cloak'.

A video has recently emerged showing a man disappearing facing the camera as he holds a transparent-looking table cloth in front of him, MailOnline reported.

The video, shared on Weibo, has garnered over 21.4 million views as well as being shared by various news media.

It shows a man turning the cloth over as he stands in the middle of a bush. He opens the cloth and disappears in front of the camera. The cloth can be seen blending into the bush completely.

However, Zhu Zhensong, producer at Quantum Video production company told Liberation Daily that there were no such thing as invisibility cloak.

He told the reporters that the video had been edited and filmed with a blue or green plastic cloth.

"Softwares such as Adobe's After Effects, Nuke or Blackmagic Fusion can edit the background and blend the object into it. The effect has previously seen in a lot of action movies," said Zhu.

While web users were overly enthused about the cloak, some spotted the leaves near the man's legs were moving but not the ones appeared on the cloth.
