How does he levitate the small glass ball? He does it twice
Of course it is always possible that it is CGI.
What levitation? I watched about half of the goofy recording and sure didn’t see any levitation.
At exactly 60 seconds in he takes a small glass ball. Gives it a spin then has it levitating. He repeats this near the end of the video.
He is one reptillian-looking, dude, however.....yuck.

Video is too jittery and unprofessional to be CGI....but who knows. I wish I knew where this took place. Get this guy on the Mike Huckabee show!!!
At 60 seconds he has a glass ball levitating...not him personally
Am I going mad?

I thought the jitteriness was sort of suspect...possibly covering for some really slick CGI.
At 60 seconds he has a smaller glass ball spinning in the air. He moves his hands all around it to show there are no strings supporting it
I would love to get a good explanation how he does this
correct you are...i thought the same but...

At 4:48 he floats (levitates) the glass ball again
It’s dangling from a thread that he drapes over his head and down the front of his face.
The ball thing was just a trick, but I was impressed with his agility.
At 47 - 48 second mark it looks like he pulls something from his waistband with his left hand. Maybe a wire or something?
I don't think that's how he does this. He spins his fingers around the ball. Couldn't do that if there was a string from his head. Any string would have to be horizontal.
Great performance though. This is called contact juggling and there are some amazing youtube videos out there.
This guy is one of the best I've seen.
>>I don’t think that’s how he does this. He spins his fingers around the ball.
If you look closely he moves his fingers in a circle, always going UNDER the ball but always just barely missing going ABOVE the ball’s center. You can see him manipulating the thread into position during the 10 seconds or so before the trick.
Is this guy going to pay his Obamacare premium or take the penalty?
Hmm...just re-watched the video. I don’t see it, but you could be right. If so, still VERY well done
