Performance Tips:
Start building up the floating steel ball trick by telling your audience that they are going to witness something so amazing and impossible that they will be left astonished. Tell them that you, the master of the incredible, will make a steel ball levitate right in front of their very eyes!!!
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.
You raise an eyebrow and slowly unclasp your hands from the floating steel ball. The floating steel ball is now levitating as your audience gasps in astonishment. You have now magically defied the laws of gravity.
You then replace your hands over the ball as the once concentrated look from your face fades into an ear to ear grin. You then reveal the real secret behind this easy levitation magic trick.
Getting Started:
The prop for this gag can be located in almost every kitchen around the world. If you don’t have one in your kitchen, you are sure to be able to locate it at most supermarkets for a relatively cheap price. If you still can’t find one, there are many different sites that would stock one of these. Just remember that the cost of shipping may be more than the product is worth.
The floating steel ball is great if you are looking to add some variety into your magic show. This trick works great as a comic relief for the audience.
