Doesn’t matter how it’s done. It took some ingenuity to design a rig like that to give the appearance of holding the shovel to support his weight. The moves he performs look flawless. And I don’t believe I could stand in the same spot like he does for more than 30 minutes. Fantastic Job.

I don't think many choose this. About what I know, they live under bad circumstances, have to get up early in order to get a licence, always in the rival with other entertainers, musicians etc. You always have to rely on the people giving you money. If you don't make enough, you can't eat or buy another license to do your show. It is a very hard buisness and people doing it are usually poor and helpless and try to find a way to get to money in order to survive and live. I could be wrong tho, I'm just a KZbin comment, not a scientific study. I never met a real street performer, just what I heard and saw;)

[@user-oh9mh9vf8k]

Us motorcyclists have that talent pretty downpacked. Lol

[@deezynar]

My theory is that he wears a climber's harness through his crotch, so he is essentially sitting all the time. He has a steel tube inside his left coat sleeve that attaches to the stub that's welded to the shovel handle, shown at 3:28. The top of the tube in his sleeve gets hooked to hinge attached to a steel frame that encircles his torso below his armpits. The hinge is probably just a round steel stub that gets slipped into a round socket. The climber's harness is hung from that encircling frame. I believe that he connected the tube in his sleeve to the frame around his chest at 3:58 in the video. Before that, he was moving his arm freely out to the side. After that, his arm only rotates forward and back. His center of gravity is below the pivot line, which is just below his arm pits. That means he has to muscle himself into the prone position, which must take some real strength. Knowing how it's done adds to the respect for the engineering involved. And it does not remove respect for how much strength it takes, or how uncomfortable it must be to hang there in that hot clothing.

[@cyberpleb2472]

I agree. I also love that you acknowledge you have more respect for him after knowing how it's done. I'm the sort of fellow that wants to figure out magic tricks - this is the entertainment factor for me. I will never understand people that think this spoils the experience. Sorry, but I'm not content to be ignorant and pretend magic is real. Exercising your mind is a good thing. Truly appreciating the skill it takes to perform a trick can't happen unless you examine it.

@@angies5082 He's wearing some kind of attachment under his jacket that connects to the supporting bar, that's why the jacket is puffy so you can't see it. But you can see him connecting to it when he reaches into his jacket with his right hand @3:57. The join is cylindrical so it's free to swivel forward and back. It would be sized and balanced specifically for him so that he can swing back and forth effortlessly. Also, notice that the shovel is mounted on the extreme left side of the base, otherwise his weight would cause him and the whole base to topple over.

BRAVO !! EXCELLENT PERFORMANCE, AMAZING!!

[@darylkik6204]

I hope your aware that the "magic" exists in the act. It also exists in the hearts and minds of little children that walk by. It exists for the person that is lonely and just wants to be noticed or notice something. The magic is also in the adults as they argue politely with the stranger next them about how is he doing that. And finally the magic is in the heart of the performer. He carries it with him anywhere he goes. (the magic) He keeps it alive in his act. If you still do not believe in his magic powers then answer one simple question. How many people and strangers did you make smile today? Because he does it every day for hundreds if not thousands of passers by. Thank you good sir.

[@gibbogle9486]

Making people smile is of great value, but it isn't magic, as the term in commonly understood.

[@umahunter]

Even if he's got a support on that arm up to his underarm it's still amazing that he can do that continuously and lay himself out etc on one arm that takes some serious strength 👍👍👍

[@behatiprinslooooooo]

That’s what he wants you to think.

It is indeed hard, and yes I do get pain at times. However, when I realise how many smiles I brought onto peoples faces I realise Is worth all the efforts 🥰🤗🥰🤗🥰🤗🥰🥰🥰🥰

Incredible illusion. I imagine the end of the shovel extension connects to something we never see in his jacket that is holding him in place. Even so, good fun and well designed.

Agree. They definitely left something else out. He’s obviously got an extra brace somewhere. This video shows only half of the trick.

Very nice rework of the Broom Suspension Illusion, as an ex Busker I would always stop on the way to my pitch for 5 mins and watch these type of performers thinking that beats twatting a guitar and singing at the top of your voice.😁

[@just4randomuploads]

I can explain it better I think, here how it goes: For him to perform the trick he does is to first learn how to fly, once he master's that, he then needs that stick to somewhat make things believable and to make sense of things. So yeah that's all there is to it

[@dorissanchez7519]

I don't know if this guy is actually getting paid for doing this performance because I gotta tell you if he isn't and he is just doing it to entertain people either way he's got my most deepest respect for going through all this work for the mere purpose of making somebody else's life a little more happy 😉, kudos to him and a round of applause 👏👏👏

@@NoLefTurnUnStoned. There is a rod connected by a hinge to the shovel handle. It runs up the inside of his sleeve to a harness he's wearing under his jacket. The hing allows him to lean forward in a bow when people donate money. He's basically hanging from his armpits and doing a short plank when someone drops a coin.
