a programmable motion control camera, each animate shot seperately and all cleverely editied onto a clean plate (background only shot) and a lot of POST to remove the giveaway bits.
or
some very clever green screen work
or
robotics and remote control

What?! You telling me Elmo isn't real?
The the trike is RC, you can see the servo arms (copper colour) that come from the dumpster bit to the handle bar stem. His hands and feet are stuck on and his head and mouth must be RC too.
They are also cutting in shots of the proper puppet with fake handle bars (you can see them bobbing around in the elmo close ups).

maybe its like that ventriloquo from the simpsons ;)
edit:
so robotics is discarded, maybe green screen with a guy dressed on green moving elmo?
nope elmo shadow fits
when you are small think elmos real
you grow and thing elmo fake
but the caught is he is real, probably a product of the supressed secret forbidden magic
from a time i can see auras on people
and i see a very intense purple hallo on elmo here :)

Those Sesame Street people are damned clever. Maybe they should do a flight-sim.
I'd buy it.
