This is floating trick illusion explained and this is not magic as people believe. Next time you see the man, just ...aahahahahahah..


This is science at work and am surpried that many physcis students cant even burst the lies on that thread.

Let us figure out what is really happening.

At first glance, your eyes are in disbelief. How can a man be floating in the air?


Clearly, passerbys watching this street performance are impressed and taking photographs.

There's a platform that the performer is actually sitting on this entire time, and that platform is connected to the pole for support. It's not a coincidence that in each of these instances there's always a "carpet" of some sort at the bottom to cover the base.

here you have it! It turns out those seemingly long hours of floating meditation were just hours of sitting! You and I can easily do that. Wouldn't you agree?



See thE video below and the trick of levitation and flotation will be perfectly clear.

There is a steel plate on the pavement, covered with a grey carpet. In the corner of the plate, there is a rod sticking out. Into this, there is a steel platform, on which the performer sits. The steel tube which holds the platform runs up his left sleeve.
Another one

I watched the video to the end,their seem to be some manipulation towards the end. At the point where the performer places a red piece of cloth over himself the scene changed entirely into him sitting on air. The case here and the one that played out appears metaphysical, not sure physics has sufficient explanation for it.
Also your brief account above is insufficient.

I showed my Russian friend the moment I saw the thread yesterday and he gave this same explanation. We have too much of jazz consciousness, makes it easy for us to be fooled most times

i cant modify it for now because it has been locked by spambot but watch the first video or type floating illusion tricks on google. This is physics at work.

In short, the floating man illusion is accomplished via the strategic placement of steel rods and plates. And though the performers appear to be defying the laws of physics, the structure is remarkably stable and contains only three parts; 1) the seat, 2) the shaft, and 3) the plate. Of course, there’s always a rug or garden to cover up the plate, and the street performer would also require long sleeves or baggy clothing to help hide the shaft.
