I got some of this stuff... There's thread that's nearly impossible to see without bright light or a magnifying glass. You tape one end behind your ear and the other end you squish in a tiny rice grain sized ball of candle wax. Then you casually press the wax onto lightweight objects and practice wrapping the thread around different angles. Then slide your finger over the wax to unstick it and hang the item to the audience.
Good job, when I do this trick I like to have the thread run from my mouth and attached to a glass on the bar, then bi-fold the bill over the thread standing up like a pup tent. Then I use my tongue and hands to have it dance around and leap into the glass.
He says this at one point: "You just need the levitation-kit..." which I gather would be some string and some wax, which you can probably buy at a hobby-store or at their website if you're lucky
Regardless of the negative feedback on here. I thought you did a magnificent job on the levitation effect's.
Not sure if your new to magic. However I've been into magic off and on since age 8. Of course I know what it's like to get all types of feedback. Keep up the great work. I thoroughly enjoyed this tutorial
3. Put the tape behind your ear or on the top of your eyeglasses , behind the ear works good , the card should almost lay flat while Dangling ,learn to spin the card the way you fling a Frisbee or the opposite way. this is your start , you can play with the lengths of string to do different card or light weight levitations Practice , Practice this will take a week or month to get down good , you can start card floating by spinning the card with your two hands at the corners of the cards and spin
I love your hand poses when you do the trick dude! The beginning of your video is great reference for animation for magic! :D
an impromptu like thread reel would work best in this situation. I would suggest IE-VECTRA. If you choose to do it with the hook up over the head, then I would suggest vectra virtuoso thread....simply the most "invisible" thread mere inches away from them
Thank you. Nice demonstration. Good luck.
thanks for the tutorial blackbox...it was awesome...and i will wait for your other videos...please do keep posting
And then the bartender runs his hand across the thread that the dollar is obviously dangling on, and says "that will be 10 bucks."
Lol that was funny
Boromonkey iiiiiiiiiiio
that funny, ur mom gay?
you probably dont give a shit but does any of you know a trick to log back into an instagram account..?
I was stupid lost my login password. I would appreciate any tricks you can offer me.
@Marcellus Orlando Instablaster :)
that's neat, but can it be explained more in depth including a close-up visual demonstration about how the thread is attached to the ear, what kind of thread is it exactly, and what type of wax is used. There's thousands of waxes on the market. I would guess maybe it's beezwax because it's soft and sticky or the type of wax used to prevent braces from cutting the insides of your cheeks. it's a little bit soft and sticky but wouldn't leave as much residue as beezwax does.
There's a thing called magicians wax mix on the market made for this sort of thing. There's also extremely thin, virtually invisible thread meant for levitation. I recommend amazon, they have everything.
firstly, notice how he is in a black room wearing a black shirt. I hate invisible string for just that reason. In many rooms you can easily see the string. Also, maybe I watch too many sci-fi movies but my vision of an object floating is that it moves fluidly without wobbling or shaking in mid air. The fact that the bill shakes in mid air is very supicious. I love how Yigal Mesika spins the ring with his tarantula. Makes it less obvious that he is using string.
theres wax and magician string on BOTH hands its obvious because it stays in the same spot in between ur hands u gotta move it up and down a bit. so make the string do more than just sit perfectly still between ur hands
Now thats a cool soundtrack (the part when the bill was floating).
@elsavakilla you dont tape it, you have the string rig all ready done before you come to the bar or in front of the audience, and then you crumple the dollar around the thread and rest it in your palm. hope this helped.
Great presentation
Amazing!!
6:07 - the sunglasses are moving too! hahahaa
That's awesome man. I do the trick on all my friends and now they think I'm really telepathic. 5 stars!
How does making dollar levitate allow you to read minds?
Excellent !
these tricks are awesome and easy, just be sure to carry a black shirt and a black background wherever you wanna do the trick.
You attach one end to your ear, and one end on your shirt, when the time comes take it off your shirt and place it on the card. make the string go inbetween your pointed finger and thumb, to manipulate it. Remember this is a free tutorial, if you want 100% tutorial buy the black box
Gracias muy buen video, pero seria bueno que lo pongas con alguna explicacion mas grafica para ver como pones el hilo y asi poder ver la tecnica
Another ways is to make static charge by clapping rapidly for a minute and then wave *DO NOT TOUCH ANY THING!* then you get a dollar/pound/euro bill and you can basicly do it, you will have a weird fealing on your hands by that time.
nice video,,,nice trick...thanks for the revealed....
That was cool!
I'm going to do this to my 6 year old brother and say "I am a Jedi I have the force" he is to young to realize there is a string :3

wow this is helping me out with my brothers talent show
@elchivista18 you dont, you crumple it around the thread.. it actually sticks pretty well.
Desde Spain, un admirador vuestro , que no entiende el ingles, te pido, ¿podias traducir tus videos al castellano?
Gracias por estar ahi,
you know, this trick seamed a lot different to me because your holding the doller sidways and you let them touch it. its kind of cool.
With my eagle eye I`d spot the thread when he is in the day light. plus you can see how the dollar dangles, and wiggles its on a thread
First Class, I have just bought the I.T Watch from france
Steve Fearson wants to talk with you about using his method to perform these levitation effects. Also about explaining them poorly. Using Blaine and Angel in the description is just clickbait! Fearson was selling this method in the 1980s.
Very clever.
@blackboxillusions Thank you for showing this. These are very cool tricks, indeed. Any chance you could tell what type of wax you use, exactly? Also, what kind of thread, specifically? The only thread I can think of that I have ever seen is thick enough that I would imagine people would see, and notice. Also, what color thread? I would guess black, but then I am wondering how it wouldn't be noticeable in contrast with your light skin(?). Please answer, thank you.
finally, I found a way to pay for my drink
I have a blackbox kit for sale. It's good as new, if anyone is interested. It's a great kit. One of the best I've seen, and I've studied magic for years.
thanks
thanks man. Im gunna use this in public
That really dose work
Good
@PeripheryFan76 You have to buy it... its a peice of wax with a string on it and you can tick the wax anywhere one your body and make the object float with the thred.... (( THATS WHAT IM GUESSING))
Dude that's amazing!!!!!! You couldn't have used the cross angel Invisible string so how did u do that
this would absolutley never work in a bar because before you know it someone would reach over and feel if there is a string there -_-
Republican still money
yeah or a drunken accidently stumbles,on you and thatll do it.
Thanks. Hope I can learn the reason of levitation.
You have any idea?
Or mayba its like a sticky tyoe of wax that is affixed on the card and somewhere on youre ear making it levitate but the other moves and objects im not getting it yet but its still cool to watch..
maan your the best! Thats the best trick i'v ever known! but the problem is how to make it move however i like to i know it needs practice! but still i don't know much moves....
nice comment n thnks 4 de tutorial
cool video
USE THE FORCE, LUKE
Good trick, only you should have told at the first about the thread, it works excellent with acard, you can make it spin around your body and make it rise up and go where you wont it to I was show his trick years ago in Las Vegas....
thanks for the website only
@Victor Chavarria Thats the point -.- dont say its fake becaue its not. Its not magic, its an illusion. And illusions are real.
I've mostly stopped using this trick, because so many people have debunked it like this. The local paper did get a nifty shot of it four years ago or so... but I admit, I did like the cigarette one. Never thought of that... too bad I usually try not to smoke while performing.
Trouble in this video is that a few motions actually give it away; you can see the thread in places.
FYI, for the comment thread: the wax is usually sold with the thread, "magician's wax"; but I've used Scotch tape, slits in things, tacks, medical tape, glue, or whatever comes to hand, depending on the trick. Tiny bits of that double-sided poster hanger stuff work too, if it's CONCEALED. I get my wax etc. from Dreamland Magic.
But I'm still a little bummed by the casual revelation of this trick, old or not.
Its called magicians wax, It can be made by leaving a glue stick to dry, check the consistency of it every 15 minutes. For a more detailed explanation google how to make magicians wax.
What do we meed to buy?thread wax and what else to stick behind ear?
@Dinam1ta yes it does i got the deje vu,stripper kit,and levitation from it a month ago they are awsome!also the thread can levitate stuff up to 2 pounds!
how is the thread configured around your ear? because it seems like it moves impossibly far to the left and right. also, the examples of other street magicians move the cigarette and whatever vertically too.
Good and good
What color is the thread? Is it clear fishing line? I thought that was the way you did the trick, but was thrown off when you had the dollar floating inbetween your 2 hands and it wasn't 90% below your upper hand and not resting on your shirt. (3:10) Could you do a video demo where we can see the thread. It still baffels me. (Great showmanship!!!)
What's the wax for and where does invisible string come from?
nice beat :)
its a very nice video, but i have a question: how does it work at 3:55 ?PS: sorry for my bad english
i did it your awsome
you can use fishing wire or thred and i used hair wax it worked for me but its wast strong enugh to use it on a fork.
thx bro . God Bless by the way. ^^
This works
SHM in the dollar revealed the thread...Its nice though.
What do u mean by wax
it worked
cool
move your hands clock wise like a Raiden Loading up his Lightling Ball.
i'm having quite a bit of trouble splitting the thread...how do you do it with more ease?
0:21 i see the band in his hand
Magician's wax at any magic store. There is similar product available in a sewing store if I'm not mistaken.
What kind of wax r u taling about it dimb
you can google the magic shop online u know. Awesome performance specially the cigarette back into the mouth
tried it it workd
Can you use glue instead of wax?
what happens if u lose the invisible thread??? its invisible so u couldnt find it right?
@blackboxillusions if one end of the string is on ur ear and the other on ur hand how do you make it connect to the dollar? please reply!!!
Do you only crumble it and it floats?
@SuperRandomation the one on your ear you rap around a couple times around the ear and finger i think same think
what kind of thread do you use? because it is so easy to see the thread that i use
Awsome; )
can someone explain me correctly what is the wax that he is using? you say "its what is on a candle" but i cant see it.... can someone explain what EXACTLY is he using?
clever.
What kind of thread do you use? And what wax?
Maybe you can explain the thread part since you dont mention that at all
This made me LOL. I was about to type the EXACT SAME thing in the comments, only to find it's already been said and in the top comments. That is freaky :D
Check out 'Special Head' on America's Got Talent, Try to figure that out.
where would I get a levitation kit? I mean like the wax and thread you are using. There is no magic store near me, at least no as I know. Please respond.
What if you get the string tangled?
You made me cry in laughter
Where do you buy the kit?
String can be seen at 1:30 Look closely.
thread, huh? :P i haven't even finished watching to see you explain it, but i can tell already
Sweet im doing that for the talent show! ( 3
