Can not work
See Earnshaw's theorem: static combinations of magnets and gravity can not be in stable equilibrium.
Conductors (aluminium foil and copper) may stabilize it for a little time, no longer than a few seconds; for long time, you need superconductors or diamagnetic materials such as graphite.

FAKE * DOES NOT WORK
I figuer out how he puld it off. he's using a thin line of nylon and each time he cuts away from the camra. watch how he lays on top of bowl a peace of sheetrock, he still can pull the nylon out of view.I tryed this levitation methed many times & DOES NOT WORK!
