How to levitate

Hello there, welcome.

Levitation is one of the most amazing magical abilities.

And there are numerous ways to accomplish this; in this story, we'll discuss only a handful of them. We'll go over some easy ways you can do at home right now, followed by other more complex strategies requiring some preparation and practice.

You've seen it on some national television shows, so hit the "like" button and get ready to learn how to levitate. We'll also go over other more costly variations that the pros utilize.

The magician enters the room using this first technique and then covers the front.

of their body with a towel or blanket, and then miraculously they seem to levitate right off the floor. This looks very realistic, and it's very easy to do. To start, tie a pair of shoes together with a large rubber band, or you can use velcro on the sides of the shoes to make them stick together. The secret to this illusion is that when the magician covers themselves with the blanket, they take their right foot out of the shoe and place it directly behind their other foot. Then, beneath the blanket, they take their left foot off the ground and move it around so that the two shoes move together, giving the impression that they are levitating.

To finish this trick, the magician puts their foot back in the other shoe and takes off the blanket. In the next technique, in which there is no cover whatsoever, the magician approaches a step stool and appears to levitate to the top of it. He then floats in midair without any visible support. The best thing about this technique is that it is incredibly cheap to make and can be done at home right now.

This technique is very common among street performers because it works from all angles and looks fantastic from every angle.

You may have even seen two performers performing this act together on a popular television show,

such as a blanket, rug, or, as I mentioned earlier, beach sand.

This is done to deftly conceal the steel support that holds the magician in the air; in this instance, the support

runs from the floor up the staff he is holding, then it goes up his sleeve down his

back and makes a seat for him to sit on. This next levitation is typically performed as a stage effect because of the awkward setup and the importance of angles. The magician is standing directly inside, his body covering the vertical beam so that the audience cannot see it. You might be wondering how the magician moves a hoop over his body without colliding with the support beam; there are no holes or gaps in the hoop; it all comes down to the motion the magician uses [music].

He begins at one end and crosses the whole support beam, but see how he spins the hoop in the opposite direction without ever really

There are no holes or gaps in the hoop, so you might be wondering how the magician maneuvers it over the body without colliding with the support beam. The magic is actually in the motion the magician employs.

Starting from one end, he crosses the entire support beam, but notice how he spins the hoop the other way without ever really crossing the front of the beam; it appears as though the hoop crossed the full body, which is how magicians levitate.
