Question How does David Copperfield separates his body with his hands standing up? I heard the inventor was "Steve Fearson" You can watch these 2 videos from others who somehow learned to make the apparatus. At http://youtube.com/watch?v=vQ1ww6cJN_E & http://video.yahoo.com/watch/67154 Where can I buy the secret to make my own apparatus?
And
How does Florian Zimmer make that dice levitate while it's spinning in the air as it floats between his hands and makes it dissappears when it lands in his hand? Do you know where he learned how to do that? I'm interested in buying this secret. You can watch the video at http://youtube.com/watch?v=2qauJ29vPT0 (This trick starts at the 2 minute point in the video so you can fastward it there to see what I'm talking about)

This is what I found. I have to warn you though that I do not own this. It's cheap enough though so you can afford it and if it sucks you don't loose out a whole lot.
Florian uses the floating cig. method. If you have any floating tricks (floating card/bill, etc.), it's basically just a different way of setting up your "gimmick" and using hand movements to make it seem as though nothing is supporting the die.
Now seeing that you are a "youtuber" I'm kind of surprised that you haven't found either of these tricks exposed on youtube.com. I know for sure that one of Criss Angel's short levitation's are on there and wouldn't be surprised if you found the self cut/copperfield illusion on youtube. Hope this helps. Good luck
