Levitating man trick revealed 

There is a steel frame on the pavement, covered with a carpet. In the corner of the frame, there is a rod sticking out. Into this, the beggar puts a steel platform, on which the beggar sits. The steel tube which holds the platform runs up his left sleeve.
Tiggeren sitter på en platform som er festet til et stålrør. Røret settes fast i stålramma som ligger på bakken under teppet.
