> He spent five days, working 12 hours a day, to create the 250 square
> metre Image of the crevasse, which, viewed from the correct angle,
> appears to be 3D. He then persuaded passers-by to complete the illusion
> by pretending the Gaping hole was real.'I wanted to play with positives
> and negatives to encourage people to think twice About everything they
> see,' he said. 'It was a very scary scene, but when people Saw it they
> had great fun playing on it and pretending to fall into the earth.'I
> like to think that later, when they returned home, they might reflect
> more on What a frightening scenario it was and say, "Wow, that was
> actually pretty scary."
