Idioms are phrases, sometimes exaggerated, that are used to describe something. It doesn’t literally mean what it is describing.

The sentence contains the idiom:
“Disappeared into thin air”
Which is impossible. But it is an idiom that means the man has completely disappeared all of a sudden.

Hope this helps!
