That guy must be sitting on a pretty hefty counter-weight though, and whatever material the frame is made of must be rigid as fuck :D


Mhh, actually I don't think there is any counter-weight. That's why he's floating exactly above him, the trick would not work (w/o additional counter weight - which would take space and probably make him move strangely before the trick starts) if he were like floating slightly more to the left.

Material should be some rigid metal frame, I wonder though if they demonstrate beforehand that the "rope" would be flexible... (then the construction would need movable parts to snap into place to be rigid?)

Chinese Man Builds His Own Bionic Hands from Scrap Metal After Losing Limbs in Explosion

Think you’re a pretty good do-it-yourself-er? Think again. The Daily Mail reports that after losing both of his hands and forearms in an explosion (he created a homemade bomb that detonated prematurely), 51 year-old Sun Jifa decided he wasn’t done building stuff. Instead of feeling discouraged when the hospital suggested prosthetic arms he couldn’t afford, Jifa set to work assembling his own. Eight long years later, he completed the ultimate DIY project by building a working pair of prosthetic hands without the aid of fingers.

I wonder why he made the bomb in the first place?
