A jellfish can be immersed in water and supported by buoyancy as to appear weightless.
A levitation train can be lifted off the rails based on the repulsion of the magnetic fields.
Some kung fu masters are said to be able to lift themselves up from the floor using Qikung – I still have to see them before my very eyes.
Here are some acrobats who seem to be able to soar above the water jets but in fact they are tied by wires.
The picture was taken in a performance in Macau.
