+Francis Tuazon or he could be doing something productive with the same amount of time. earn more money.

+Tawny Owl he wants to entertain people. thats part of the reason why they do this.

+Tawny Owl Man, if that mind and body control isn't productive for him, I don't know what else could be, hehe.

+Tawny Owl right, like nuerosurgery. you need that kind of endurance for it. erm, wait...I forgot, u need umpteen yrs of schooling and an absurd skill set for that. lol

+Tawny Owl maybe he isnt about the money

Mobile phone? You guys are really addicted.

It was a joke, cause he said more importantly then water

Without food and water and more importantly a mobile phone? That noise was thousands of your ancestor's screaming out un anguish 😧

They eat for breaks and sets up again

Well if he was in your country toilet wouldn’t be an issue because the street is the toilet

People who are homeless or poor deserve those donations 100% too.

@@mangotv3317 cap

What a very stupid take. Homeless people aren't meant to hop around to entertain you, just for your measly cash LOL

​@@shedikari (Long message; there's a TLDR at the end if you're too lazy haha) I think it was just poorly worded. I think what this person may have meant is that this person is putting great effort into his work. Additionally, he contributes something to onlookers through entertainment. Panhandlers only take. They make you feel pity, or social obligation, and take your money. Many times, the stories are false, designed to make you feel more pity, and be more likely to give them money. They contribute nothing but negativity in the world. I would give money to someone I *knew* was honestly doing their best, and only asked for help when they truly needed it. But aside from that... Maybe I'm too jaded to believe that every panhandler in every place has these terrible, terrible circumstances they claim. I'm sure there are some, clearly, but in the modern world, how can one know whether they are feeding a family, or some lazy guy who doesn't want to get a job? Or worse yet, feeding someone's meth addiction? I'll gladly buy someone food. Not just giving random beggars cash because they asked for money. Meanwhile, I would gladly donate money to someone showing off their talents, or doing dedicated acts like this for the public, like this man, or a street musician, street magician, a mime, a dancer, or whatever interesting talents or such they might have. I'd gladly support anyone who went around trying to offer to shine people's boots while he can't work, or carry your heavy luggage while you're in the airport because he's strong, but can't find a real job. I'd gladly buy sculptures made from scavenged garbage or simple art supplies, if I found it interesting; and without even hesitating I'd definitely make a visit to someone offering warm hugs and asking for donations. Maybe several visits over the course of a month. Or I'd stop in wonder to listen to an old disabled man tell stories, whether from his childhood, or from pure fantasy, and gladly support this person as well. In all of these cases, the people are not just asking for your money and making you feel bad for not handing your cash over: they are doing something which makes you *want* to support them. They are giving us positivity. People like this contribute something critically important to society: joy, and wonder. Happiness. A brightening of our days, and a break from the repetitiveness of life. A panhandler simply takes handouts. But THIS is an honest living, even if he's unemployed or doesn't do anything others might call "productive". TL;DR: Perhaps, but this person is putting effort into earning money, rather than simply asking you for it. This man contributes to society through joy and wonder and happiness. Most panhandlers contribute only negativity; pity and guilt. There are countless ways to earn some level of money, even if you can't find work. Beggars don't *earn* anything.

Wow i shud go ham n egging for me next brandy

true.#respect

Street hustlers like the bums who dress up as super heroes and cartoons in Time Square NYC are the absolute worst. No talent thugs. At least this guy has something fun to see

+MaxL14 L.A. too

amazing

I wanna see someone take his money to see how fast he can get off that thing..

Thanks for explaining what he was sitting on, as I couldn’t figure that out!

Thanks

@@sjpavur hshahaha 👍

yeah thanks I was like this video still don't explain how he sits in the air.

That's not it actually

I still don’t know exactly how it supports him. Anyway, good for him. And thanks for efforts as well.

@@drannoc100 there’s a seat that attaches to that pole, he covered it all up with the red cloth before attaching it

Exactly...

@@jeffreydavis2578 I don’t see how it would’ve been room in his backpack for more poles or a seat. But I don’t see how else he could do it so I guess you’re right it attaches to the fake arm and he sits on it I guess

@@dylankirschenman729 idk bro, that’s my guess

🤣🤣😂😂🤣

Eh, It's a busy city. You have constant changeover and people don't concern themselves with what these 'weirdos' are doing. It Takes a special person to film it and post it on KZfaq. But ultimately, almost everyone knows it's an illusion and people can't levitate. For the cost of a red sheet, you can conceal the kernel of the trick - which he did, because even this guy didn't get the footage. OR he did, but respects the craft and hustle so edited it out.

Honestly though. Most people don’t pay much attention to their surroundings so they probably don’t cognizantly notice him setting up.

2:57

Piece o cake. In morning when he sets up, those people currently passing by are now at work when hes in final position. New passerbys is what hes interested in, not the people that see him set up. And most of those people in the morning that seen him setup are now at work and are making bank and could careless what hes doing.

Haha that's what I was thinking! It's like he is making sure no ones paying attention to his set up, although that draws more attention in the long run.

+Lucky Lex ♡♡♡♥♥

LuckyL13 true but the film is heavily edited. If would have taken aot more than 2.57 min to set all that up. So maybe he chased off the guy with the camera several times. Lol

Wait what, he was mad?

@@bojojojo913 “Chased him off” Sorry but this dude doesn’t own the sidewalk. If it can be seen in public it can be filmed.

He just dosent want anyone to know his way of setting it up maybe??

+Ferno Joey the metal frame which goes up his back is supporting a seat which works exactly the same way that a computer monitor or TV stand works.

+Ferno Joey That thing he put down under the cover at 1:00 acts as a stand. Just like the guy above me said, it works like a computer monitor's stand.

+Ferno Joey The final trick he chose not to reveal. He realized that the people around him were observing him and hid that part. Got to admit that he has both engineering skill and tactical intelligence.

Center of gravity.

+Ferno Joey you dont get anything.

spot on,,,buddy

idlingdove r/iamverysmart

Cheers!

Earthly mission said so

That's not how it works

Saurabh Banerjee do you know what a job is, that's not a job.

Saurabh Banerjee The part we don't see in this video is that there is a seat that is attached to the pole and so he is sitting comfortably. The clothing covers that and when he goes under the red - they don't show him attaching the second bit of the bar which goes around his back and has a seat attached.

WithThisLight

Agreed, I'd go insane just sitting there all day.

Christian It is a job. Does he make money? Yes it's a job. You think he wakes up every morning to put a smile on your face? Well maybe but the dollar in your pocket looks better. Lol

Well he is not the first to do it so very little thought required...maybe he put some thought into his outfit but thats about it. Somebody else put the thought in, not this guy. People In youtube comments always creating heroes out of people

So, your new nickname is Stumpy?

How ya been Stumpy?

Stumps!!

How's life treating you, stumpy?

😂

Look Masked Magician , That is a Simple Trick

actually, He did pull the rabbit out of his hat, even if it's a trick

***** I had one for my 8th birthday party with my entire class at school. I don't think it was all that expensive.

Matt Ranson well my father gave me a bag of kool aid grape flavor and my mother hanged a Jack Daniels as a piñata and it was my 5th birthday. True story

+leeyang1990 Blessings upon you.

You are a blessing to mankind

No it's daruud sandstorm lol

+A.J. Ello u need to hold your self up dont u think it will be pretty heavy after 2 min ?

+Zombiesbum Actually sitting in general is kinda bad for your posture. Laying down and standing is best. If you work an office job sitting at a computer all day, even if you're sitting very well, you're going to pay the price later on.

Zombiesbum Nope, if you do it consistently enough for long enough, I guarantee you, you will have back, hip, spine or neck issues at some point later in your life. People seem to think that our butts are for sitting on, our butts are at least 80% for squatting and picking things up, very little to do with sitting.

+Zombiesbum Big ass is for runnin,walking and balance.And sitting is so bad that even excercise can't reverse some of its later effects

+4BoardAllDay4 No joke or sarcasm, did you realize this by observation or education?

+Melvin Johnson you're right but I was dying to know man lol

and now they ruined somebody's only job... ✌

No one's job is ruined you idiot

Thats why you buy a big box of Donuts for free samples. The Cops would be your best buddy.

M. Strain Jr. Hey!! I'm from Charlotte area. 😁😀

then all the people will go after you if you steal the tip jar and the guy will stay on his seat.

then give out all of your credit cards to homeless people

Y'all are taking my comment waaay too seriously. I would never really take the man's money. He definitely earned it. Providing the entertainment he has is plenty worth it. I was making a joke. Like do something, anything, to cause a reaction out of him. (Which, I figured, short of stealing his money, nothing really would because he's so dedicated.)

Better be clear next time because that didnt look like it was a joke.

profgamer1 only to people with no freaking sense of humor. Good lord. Move on with your life.

ikr

ZLJJcloud this can teach others how to magic

Because Magic is always magic. Magic Is love, magic is life

Slurp

I don’t understand because he got under the blanket

+MoonlightDreamer too funny

+Cal6009 You have issues

wtf?

+Olivia Doka he likes his boots the big deal is what exactly? just cause you prolly aint got the same opinion geez man get gone

They're just regular Timbs. Everyone in the hood rocks them

yeah, even someone like you wears them, how special.

Timberlands not timbs

Me too-

The pole is also a catheter.

lmao!

+cast390 No drink = no pee

+Nick Pinch lol

+Lucrezia you should have pushed his ass over, he has steel bars running all through him, it's not like he's gonna be able to get up easily, let alone chase you LOL.

Haha me too

+Aldora LaPlume I wish I was in Rome. Beautiful city and of course, beautiful girls like yourself.

+supercooled ._.

Bruh. You're not nearly as clever as you think you are. His arm is clearly inside the jacket sleeve, he's just got the pole hidden in the sleeve next to his arm.

The stick goes to the glove and theres a pipe in the glove that goes to a beam that he sits on

+Ajay Patel thank you I didn't know either

Your missing the plate he's actually sitting on. At 00:26 you can see the pipe sticking up, again at 02:36 you can see it sticking up on the left behind the orange cover. They never actually show that part being installed. He's not sitting on a pipe, it's a flat plate that gets installed in the portion running down out of the sleeve down the back. FWIW

If you look at his gold tip pot, there is a cord running underneath the platform or rug his pole is on. The carpet is over the hydraulic system which he uses his hand to either go up or down. The pole his hand is resting on, has a metal rod you can't see that goes up his arm and down to a seat which he sits on, this is covered by the costume. So while it looks like he is floating up and down, it is just a eye trick. You can sort of see how the rod goes up the arm of his suit at the end by paying attention to his hand position!

+BrockGrimes ah crap, sorry I should have clicked open replies! Sorry for the dupe response :(

Yup, at least that actually requires skill. Never really went in for street performers that didn't actually do anything but stand.

YourTechGuide kid are you dumb he covered up to put his clothes. We already know how just put the pole land connect it

bhai mujhe apna mobile number do

mere liye bhi bna do rupee le lena ok or number dedo

YourTechGuide hvfjyfbn

YourTechGuide. We already see how he does it. He has it hooked under his arms and is using it to hold himself up. Used to do this as a child and hang from stuff. This man must have killer abs and arms to make himself "sit" for so long.

It's not about if you ruin the illusion or not it's the fact that this person you saw put more effort into that idea then most people do at a real job I'm not one for giving out money to panhandlers but I love people who put effort into making money

The death of wonder is the birth of knowledge. I'll take the latter every time.

fjohnson747 says the man with the Willy Wonka avatar... That man was full of wondrous delight!

Kitty Meow He was also a fictional character in a child's fairy tale.

That statement is so wrong... Wonder is one thing that makes people search for knowledge... The death of wonder would signify the death of humanity...

Sonia Rodríguez It is a real pity if you lose the ability to spell, but then I am old and have lost all sense of magic and wonder.

The cash bottle is attached to the pole.

then when he need to take a dump?

TheRock2013 It's better off if we don't know ... :|

forget peeing, what if his hand gets num?

BlackPixelIsrael Is hand is not holding anything. He's sitting on metal bars.

Rubius i know he's sitting on a metal construction, but still his hand is laying on the metal knob not in the most convenient position, so in a way it is even worse than holding it
