Flyte Buda Ball Levitating Magnetic Sphere, Floating Magic Home Decor… (Walnut/Chrome)

Product Information

To make his movements look more natural, he mirrors his grip on the two sides of the cloth, making the same moves with both of his hands. Turn away from the gathered crowd and prepare for the upcoming spectacle. When you face the audience again you are clasping a shiny steel ball between your hands. Use straws of different lengths. We also cut the one we have shorter to test out if it would be easier to make the ball float. Now, you might have seen other performances of this, probably without any cloth, making it look like the ball really defies gravity. One of the most famous shows is this one by Penn and Teller.

To do the experiment, simply point the hairdryer up and turn it on at high speed. Place the ball in the blowing air and watch it levitate in the air! You may even be able to get multiple balls floating at the same time. Only a very limited number of balls have been produced. The fabrication process is very slow and it’s very unlikely they’ll be available again soon. A surprised look on his face makes the illusion even more convincing even the magician himself didn’t know about the powers of the ball! How to make the floating ball disapear for a short moment: Another short illusion during the performance: The magician makes the ball disappear for a short moment, showing both sides of the cloth empty.
