Levitation: This question may seem a bit ridiculous.

Question

Alright so i'm pretty sure all of us have seen Cris Angel do his levitation tricks. Now I know that there have been claims of it just being an illusion and TV editing, bad shock acting, wires, the foot trick, and the list goes on.

However, does anyone who believes that he is actually levitating know how he does it? Is there a technique like meditating or something of that nature?

Answer 1

Yes, but the people capable of actual levitation wouldn't be interested in appearing on tv.

Answer 2

Cris Angel is an illusionist, and what he does is an illusion, hence the name, it's not a claim and he stated on a radio interview several years ago that what he does is not real.

Levitation is a physical impossibility, and all the meditation in the world is not going to help you achieve"levitation".

Answer 3

Well, Criss Angel aside,

there was a book written some

years ago, entitled "Levitation"

that I believe is now out-of-print.

The book explains  what it is,

how it works, and how to do it.

The author is Steve Richards.

Dude come one now... Its all fake.

Answer 5

I believe Cris Angel is a fake and a fraud. I don't believe in one thing he does. I refuse to watch his cheesy show. .

Answer 6

I believe in levitation but I don't believe Cris Angel does it.  To levitate you much be in perfect balance with the universe.  If I knew how to be in perfect balance I would be doing that instead of being here.  Try reading some Zen.

Answer 7

it defies every possible law of physics. however, if we let our minds be imaginative enough, who knows the possibilities? the power of the mind is ALOT stronger than the average person thinks it is. ALOT. it can make a person sick, it can make a person well again, it can make a person believe in a god(s). so why shouldn't the human mind allow us to levitate? i am certainly on the fence for that question. but for the whole criss angel thing; i HIGHLY DOUBT IT. if one was even capable of doing so, they would need concentration and absolute silence, not to mention solitude. he's just doing it for ratings. the guy's a weirdo. so it may be capable, it may not be capable...let your mind wonder.

Answer 8

I love magic. I don't know how he did it. BUT...if you are looking to experience it yourself, I suggest meditation. I don't know if you are familiar with it or not, but you can do anything when you meditate, and you can open yourself up and possibly have an our of body expernce, which would be just like levitating I suppose, only more enlightning because you would not have the human form holding you down.

Meditation is good for other things too, such as getting your life back in order, if you just have one of those days when you don't feel normal, somehtng is off, just meditate on it, clear your mind then arrange your thoughts, and you should be okay.

I highly suggest looking into it! :)

He's conjures up something mysterious, dark and unclean.  What are you willing to give up to get those powers?
