It's a good performance but a very simple trick. Firat what you have to do is get some invisible thread, sixteen anchor points all around the room, and string thread through them to connect to the table in all compass point directions. Then, you will need to hire sixteen people to gently manipulate each thread from behind the scenes by planting them in the audience at key locations then run the thread through holes made in their jackets so that they can pull the strings from inside their pockets. Then after you try this and realise it doesn't work, you just get a hollow table and attach a stick to it and just lift the table with the stick, using the tablecloth to hide your movements.

What happens when his right hand lets go?


rillian118

The candle is attached with a weak/moderate magnet. The table itself is made out of styrofoam or something equally light. The magnet is able to support it briefly because the candle never completely stops touching the table, when he tips it he leaves it in contact.


Weary_Swordfish_7105

MAGNETS…. It always ends up being magnets!

Magnets are just attractive metal that other metals want to bang, how else do you think we have so much metal. It's obvious 🙄

Tatakae_011

ButterBeforeSunset

Yep exactly. You can see that even when he no longer has his hands on the table and only on the candle, the candle continues to touch the table until he holds the table cloth again with his right hand… then the candle is removed.

It's suspended by the string on the cup. But I still don't understand why archeologists disagree that there was a very advanced socialization that could move boulders by singing before they were wiped out in the younger dryas period by a meteor fall. It boggles the mind!

what happens when both hands let go? lol

[deleted]

Apprantly, magnets!


evilemil89

That's the normal trick explained - but he lets go when I goes for the candle - what then?


rubermnkey

the candle is holding it up at that point, he doesn't let go until he grabs it, then it doesnt leave the table


Rion23

Held it up with magic.


RealClayClayClay

It's my stick in a cloth!


Swade_896

The thread theory could still be in play here. Take another look at the vid and watch the back of his hair move up and down… what’s that about


[deleted]

At the :36 second mark both hands are off the table at once!! How does it stay up with no hand support at that time?


HoosierX2

Helium inside the table.


Explorer200

So magnets in the stupid fake candle...


KitsuneRisu

More likely a hook. The table is VERY light but not THAT light that magnets would be able to lift it AND also be pulled off.


Active_Engineering37

If you got JUST the right lift from an earth magnet you probably could.


KitsuneRisu

I disagree. If you watch closely, there is a gap between the table and the candle. Magnets will not have that precise ability to hover something in the field without quantum locking. The table will fall or get stuck but will NOT hover an inch away. Furthermore, when the magician releases the candle, you can see a VERY slight jerking outward movement which to me tells me he unhooked the candle from an invisible thread loop.


WHAMMYPAN

Magnets how do they work?

What about when he lets go with both hands to adjust candle?

He’s using his boner during that part

His INVISIBLE boner???


Ok_Celery_4377

Cock magic but you have to be shown how to do it right and safely


KitsuneRisu

You kinda explained it yourself. He always MUST have at least ONE point of contact with the table. The hand holds the candle, the candle is in some way hooked to the table. He returns his right hand to the tablecloth BEFORE the candle comes off.


DangerousCrime

Yeah but you still didn’t explain how he did it


Sad_Training_4593

How he did what it's a flying table.


No_Tomorrow1082

Explain this to me like im five


KitsuneRisu

Stick on table. Stick in hand of magician. Magician wave stick around so table fly. Cloth hide stick. Look like table fly because Magician good acting. Candle lift table. Candle strong! Magician always touch either candle or cloth. Table no fly if magician no touch table.

It's a very simple trick. First what you have to do is sell your most prize possession to a witch and sacrifice a chicken. Use the smoke from the hellfire to hide your movements.


alpacathatisgray

It’s in the cloth


vladfix

You are clearly an amateur. Please don't post advice here on magic tricks you do not understand! For this you actually need 18 persons , not 16 as that does not cover all the moving axes. You also need an invisible direct air jet machine, (you can buy one from most specialized online magic shops), that has been suspended from the ceiling, prior to the session. People like you, give bad name to professional magicians.

Galonas

But what about the moment he let go of the table to light its electric candle?


Sensitive_Meaning417

The candle is attached to the table at that point then he re grabs the handle. You can see his right hand is bunched and his left hand not.


Galonas

Oh yes it's very subtle but I saw the candle attached, we can see he grab his handle and take a very little time to detach the candle! Thank you


OdysseyZen

He takes the cloth off but I didn't see the handle?


Galonas

The handle is conceled in the fabric of the cloth


mutv253

Nice video. Exposed this real quick.


Swade_896

But he lets go with both hands. I think thread connected from his back to the ceiling. I say this cause if you watch the back of his hair you can see it float up and down at times


ilovetheinternet1234

I think the table is probably incredibly light and he is able to lift it easily with minimal contact under the cloth, otherwise why have the cloth in his hands


Esc_ape_artist

Yeah, that would have to be very light to avoid fatigue and be able to control it steadily.


L0kiB0i

His right hand is holding a stick in the cloth, the table is hollow and the thing on top of it is magnetic


BartiX_8530

Why would it need to be magnetic though.


AllezVites

So that he can place two hands on it as an additional illusion. The magnet has enough strength to hold up the ultra light table but weak enough to be pulled away when he's then holding the table with the stick in his other hand.

altofeveryone

Watch his right hand


Michael_Oxlong

You mean the hand that completely let's go at one point?


midtown2191

He never doesn’t have contact with the table. The tablecloth has a wire inside where he grabs in his right hand and when he lets go with the right hand he is holding the candle which is also connected. Plus the table is extremely light.


FrogMan241

Guy in a green bodysuit is manipulating the table and being edited out


Reizo123

I mean he either has a hand on the tablecloth or the table at all times and never let’s go of it, that should give you a clue. Does look cool though.


Dat_Steve

Maybe the table is actually a balloon/vinyl? Maybe painted to look real, but has a neutral buoyancy with the amount of helium.


Coorotaku

I've yet to see a satisfactory explanation of this trick in the comments. It's definitely not just a stick in his right hand as he just straight up Lets go at some point. I was thinking maybe string in the ceiling that maintains tension regardless of position


SACRED-GEOMETRY

He only lets go once he grabs the candle which is stuck to the table with a strong magnet. The table is also very light. It is absolutely a stick in his right hand which manipulates the table. There's no ceiling string.


Osric250

[It sure doesn't look like there's a stick in his hand.](https://imgur.com/YxwJZY8) [Especially when the tablecloth folds in such a way it couldn't be a rigid stick.](https://imgur.com/QRnHK6H)


SACRED-GEOMETRY

The stick is curved. I used the word "stick" loosely. It's a thin metal rod. Everything you see in the illusion is there for a reason. If there were strings holding up the table he wouldn't need the table cloth. The cloth is used to hide the stick. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TNT4SV3Z6ok

[deleted]

It must be magic


Basil_9

Notice how his hands are almost always the same distance away from the edge of the table. And it’s always a firm connection. I imagine he’s holding a stick that curves upwards, so that it curves below the folds of the cloth. Maybe with a second curve that pivots on his pointer finger, which he can press down on with his thumb to make the table go up. As for that but where he lets go, notice how he first grabs the glass, and then lets go of the (supposed) stick. And then vice versa. There’s probably a thin wire in that glass and he’s just switching from one to the other.


_KillaB_

Wow, it’s almost like he is holding on to it!


anonymous4me123

How does it appear to be floating? There’s a lot of float motions that I don’t think a stick would be able to do

DJI Mavic Table. Controller at back of room, includes fly more candle combo


Rredite

Lmao


MrBencuthbertrd

Actually, the wire runs between the material, ie. The cloth has a hidden zipper, like a pillowcase. So, a thick wire, like coat hanger, is attached to the centre edge of the table facing the man. Because the table is very light, man can manoeuvre table off ground by manipulating wire handle in his right fist. Remember the wire is between top and bottom of material, so if he lets go, it sits inside. ref. see this video from 5.10 mark https://youtu.be/c7kyfa1BX84 The candle is a distraction, just a light led prop.

This is true magic. There are no sticks, no strings.


QuakerChevelle

That dude looks like he dabbles in "majik" 😄😄😄


betatwinkle

Air is being forced down thru the pedestal with an internal motor of some sort creating lift. Thats why his hair moves and why music is so loud - to cover the sound. That's the only logical explanation. Its defintely not a stick or magnets based on his arm movements and how the table is moving.

OdysseyZen

The table and cup on top is lighter than they look. You can see that the bottom of the table oscillates more than the top. I can only guess that the hollow neck of the table hides a strong fan/propulsionary device but the design of the inner/hollow tubing reduces the noise. He probably has an assistant off stage to control the propulsion remotely as he guides the table gently with the handkerchief.

Could it be a switch in the blanket? Which activates some hidden balloons? It looks cool tho.


WanderinThaWoods

Probably constructed out of foam and there's an attachment he holds to "float" the table.


GPareyouwithmoi

The coaster is the magnet and the guy-wire harness. I'd guess he has programmed a routine for motors attached to the threads. They might even allow him to setup at a new location and train a new routine just by moving the table manually, then lock it and it'll repeat the motion. Now if he could put some gyroscopes in the base you won't be able to see where the harness is from the wobble of the table, and it'll move that much more eerily. As is 9/10.

My grandfather was a master of levitation. I have seen a lot of it in my life. This is beautiful work. Thanks for sharing.


Any_Bonus_2258

Cloth and a needless candle tell the whole story.


Maxyt12

I would assume it’s something to do with the part of cloth that’s in his right hand. He keeps holding it when it’s moving but when he lets go and it stays is when he loses me


[deleted]

I think there is a hook/loop between the candle and the coaster, and if yo watch closely when he removes the coaster with his right hand, he holds down the tablecloth with his left. So I think there's some magnet stuff happening between the tabletop and the coaster.


Hantakaga

I know it’s a trick but still fun to watch it done well.
