Hi guys, I've been finding how this levitation works. I think I do, but I dont know how to build the gimmick.

I dont know if this is called the backbending levitation but it is the one where you bend your body all the way back 90 degrees with one leg. Its like doing a matrix.

Cyril and criss angel done it before
heres a link of cyril doing it

Any idea where can i get to know more info about this illusion? maybe someone written a book about it or something? Thank you!

Gabriel.. I do not know the method of this levitation works but i feel that that i will not be as " impromptu" as you think. Like for example the Lean which is the bend forward 45 degree. Cyril did it on street and on the bus before but if you have the set-up and did it on the street, it will be very obvious.

No, i dont think it will be obvious. Its quite Impromptu, I have a method in my mind but i dont know if it works.

There is a gimmick in your body. So I dont think it will be obvious. Its like physics. Moving the centre of gravity to another part of the body if you know what i mean.

I have the manuscript for the levitation. The gimmick is not easy to construct. You can walk around freely with the gimmick but you would not want to wear it the whole day. I did not construct it cos it takes too much time to assemble everything.

Plus there is a danger of hurting yourself if you don't perform it correctly.

It's a beautiful and rather practical levitation. I think I have seen it marketed somewhere before, but I still do not know the exact workings involved. Maybe one day I will get it...

ebay , you can purchase the manuscript from there but its not by criss angel or anyone, its someother normal guy. Any way its called muscle suspension or matrix levitation

Isn't this in the wrong section?

yeah you are right this is mentalism

True, maybe should classified under general magic.

Anyway, like mentioned, its will be like the criss angel leviation, that can be constructed, but its quite a hassle to bring along. But I do know people that brings gimmicks along, like Electric touch.

Opps, sorry. I must have placed it wrongly. ANyway thanks for all the help. So so far, ebay is the only source?

I kind of know how its done, its only i do not know how to make the gimmick. Was hoping there is a book or something that teaches it so it will be easier.

And I think this can be quite a nice stage magic if possible? haha

I think it will most probably suitable for stage magic rather than street. ET is rather small if i am not wrong, but i do not think this gimmick will be small.
