But 16-year-old Matt Whitehurst refuses to reveal how he carried out the miraculous stunt.


Matt, from Papcastle, Cumbria, is adamant that the feat was not faked, though he won't let on the secret of his achievement.


"I can't and won't say how I did it, but plenty of people saw me and they'll confirm it wasn't a camera trick," the Daily Mail quoted him as saying.

"The photos are real," he added.

The apparent miracle was carried out to publicise a forthcoming charity cycle ride through towns affected by the devastating Cumbria floods, which ripped through the district two years ago.
