“Out of thin air”in other languages

Same idea, different pictures

English reverses a line from Shakespeare's The Tempest, where spirits melt “into thin air”. Polish takes it from the ceiling, wziąć z sufitu, but that one means making something up, with nothing to back it.

French says it happened by the operation of the Holy Spirit, par l'opération du Saint-Esprit, almost always sarcastically: nobody knows how, and nobody believes the miracle.
