This street magic bar trick is easy and can be very convincing if you get the timing right, where a beer can appears to float in mid air .

Effect: A soda or beer can can be seen to be stuck in mid air whilst the performer eerily moves his hand from the bottom to the top of the can to create the illusion that the can is suspended in mid air.

Preparation: None, you only need a regular soda or beer can.

Method: Hold the soda or beer can in your hand, thumb on one side, fingers on the other, (towards the bottom of the can) , then simply release your grip slightly and the can will start to slide downwards. When doing this, the hand needs to be gradually but slowly moving upwards, if the timing is right it will create an illusion that the can is suspended in mid air, the upward movement of the hand needs to be exactly the same as the downwards movement of the can.

Comments: This is an easy illusion trick. It is all in the timing, therefore you should spend some time at home practicing. The result should be a great illusion trick which will have everyone dumbfounded.
