Simple way is to fly in a plane etc., otherwise, levitating your physical body against gravity without any external force and source is not described as yet.

However, you can levitate your spiritual self; as much as, as long as and as quickly as you wish. Only thing you need is determination of mind to be, kind, righteous and courteous to all things big and small and be a better human being and start it right now and continue through out the life. Also by doing so a bonus one can give to the universe is that, "there will be one less scoundrel".

you gotta only think happy thoughts and jump off a platform thats at least 30 ft high

If you can get a master illusionist to show you how they APPEAR to levitate, they probably can show you how it is done in a very few minutes. That is why they are called *illusionists* - none of this is real. If you actually think it IS real - then no answer you get here is going to satisfy you.

My cousin was the *beautiful female assistant* for a magician for several years. When she moved on to other things (she is now a theater director in NY) she had to sign a legal agreement that she would not divulge any of the secrets for a certain period of time - 5 years, I think it was. By then, other magicians will make fun of you if you have not changed your act! BTW - do you know how magicians' assistants are chosen? For decades or more, they all have to be exactly the same SIZE, because the illusions depend on them being able to squish into tight spaces.

So get a grip and ask about REAL life here - we are more than glad to help, but when people ask about making the IMPOSSIBLE happen, those of us in the business let out one big SIGH. I hope you find something REAL that you want to learn how to do!

First, levitate yourself out of this thread. You are posting in the performing arts/ music thread.

that youtube video posted by alrightt is a very good video. that's about the kind of levitation everyone including you can do

Other more spectacular levitation all involves strings, tiny, possibly carbon fiber strings. david's copperfield stage levitation equipment is a popular one, but normal magician cannot afford such equipment...
