Abstract Long thought of as a simple conjuring trick, an optical illusion, or something only deep meditation could bring about, levitation is now gaining validation and respect as a legitimate scientific event. Researchers in the field of levitation are now discovering that levitation is brought about by certain magnetic forces which are focused through the use of a human conduit or "antenna." This paper looks at techniques for achieving levitation and the scientific principles behind the phenomenon.
