How do they do that?

Street entertainers in Luxembourg. I've seen pictures of a trick like this before but that involved a single person appearing to levitate whilst holding onto a stick. This version with the levitating person appearing to be held up by the second person is even better and seeing it fo real just makes it that much more impressive.

We walked all the way round and there is no external means of support. Clearly they have something concealed under their clothing, but nothing substantial and whatever it is it is very well hidden. To dismount, they covered themselves with a cloth and a minute or so later appeared allowing the cover to drop to the floor. I have no doubt that there was something hidden beneath that cover but I an tell you it wasn't much as the cloth seemed to sit almost flat on the ground. A very impressive and successful trick as people were freely giving them money.

Luxembourg city was a 25 mile drive from where we are staying. We had a little issue when we came to a closed slip road onto the motorway but sat nav quickly got us back on track. Hit the same issue on the way back but in a different town. The town was too small to be shown on our road atlas. Sat nav just kept looping us back to the blocked road and there were no diversion signs. Took us 2 hours to get home, and we probably did 50 miles instead of 25. I need a stiff drink!
