SW Fire As amazing as that magic was to witness, the finale illusion filmed for that episode of American Chopper was spectacular. The Teutuls had built Steve a new bike to commemorate his 1,000th show at Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino in Las Vegas. When they were building the bike, Steve challenged them to make one part of it invisible. Together, they created a secret gas tank to be hidden in the rear wheel well so that the bike would appear to have an invisible gas tank. For the reveal, the Teutuls placed the bike in a large clear glass box on the Las Vegas Strip. Five thousand people showed up to see the chopper and when Steve pulled the cover off the box, it was empty. The Teutuls were shocked and the entire audience was puzzled as well. Steve told Paul Sr.,”I asked you to make one part of my chopper invisible, not the entire bike!” He then asked the Teutuls to stand back as a wall of fire ignited around the box and smoke started to fill it. The sides of the box then lowered to reveal the finished chopper. Steve had made the “invisible” bike appear through a wall of flame in front of thousands of people on the Strip.
