QA网友：谁能解释悬浮僧侣的奥秘？我相信他们真的有某种神力
正文翻译
From the first time I saw these guys, I was amazed that the explanation wasn’t obvious to literally everyone.
我第一次看到这些人的时候，我很惊讶居然不是每个人都明显地看出了这个解释。
It’s nifty, but not complicated. The trick is obvious but with a moment’s thought.
它很巧妙，但并不复杂。这个戏法是显而易见的，但要想一想。
Not science, engineering.
不是科学，是工程。

You will always see two interesting features with such levitators. There’s a staff in hand, and a carpet or something below. The intuitively obvious answer is that the carpet/flowers/whatever serve as a base and the staff serves as the structural join between the base and some seating apparatus that runs through the sleeves of the robe.
你总是会看到这种悬浮者身上有两个有趣的特征。他们手中拿着一根杖，下面有一块地毯什么的。直观上明显的答案是，地毯/花朵/任何东西作为基座，而杖则充当了连接基座和一种穿过袍子袖子的座椅装置的结构连接件。

If you knock the staff away and they don't fall, they are the real deal.
如果你打掉他们手中的杖，而他们不会掉下来，那他们就是真的。

I think I'll build one for myself and use it when handing out Halloween candy. Dress up like a floating ghost.
我想我会给自己做一个，并在分发万圣节糖果的时候用它。打扮得像个漂浮的幽灵。

Stephen Merkel to Jeff Truax
If you use a bike seat hidden under the robe, you can appear to be standing, floating off the ground. If you make the staff a scythe, you can dress up like a skeleton under the robe, and do a good grim reaper.
Extra credit if you work out a counterweight system, so you can appear to be seated and levitating, but then with very minor movement of your hand on the staff, exert enough force to lift your whole body weight to standing and floating. That would be an awesome scare effect, as they might expect the levitation, but as soon as you are standing, but floating 10 inches off the ground, having apparently risen several feet into the air is less likely to have been seen before, and really sells the illusion.
如果你在袍子下隐藏一个自行车座椅，你可以看起来站立在空中漂浮。如果你把杖做成镰刀，你可以在袍子下面扮成骷髅，并扮演一个可怕的死神。
如果你设计一个平衡系统，让自己看起来坐在空中漂浮，但只需轻微移动杖上的手，就能施加足够的力量使自己整个身体重量站立并浮空。那将是一种令人惊叹的吓人效果，他们可能期望到悬浮，但当你站立起来，漂浮在离地面10英寸的地方，看起来似乎已经升高了几英尺，这在以前是不太可能看到的，真正的营造了这种幻觉。

Bike seat to sit on, with a rod a bit below to hook your feet on to appear sitting, and another further down to stand on.
使用自行车座椅作为坐垫，下面稍低位置有一根杆子可以勾住你的脚，让你看起来像是坐着，再往下有另一根更低的杆子可以让你站立。

Windy Wilson to Stephen Merkel
I need to consult with my engineer on this. This could bring giving trick or treat candy to impressionable children to a whole new level of . . . disturbing illusion. For decades now, I’ve been using a standard pair of small latex goat horns that remarkably match my pale complexion glued to my head as my costume. Otherwise, I dress quite . . . Normally. Polo shirt and khakis, for example. One little girl looked up at me and asked, “Are those real?” Being a wise guy, I said, “Yes!” She said, “They’re Not!” As she ran back to her mother waiting at the sidewalk.
Another year, a slightly older girl looked at me after I opened the door and after a long pause asked, with a catch in her voice, “Are you the Devil?” After I gave her the candy, I said, “I’m not wearing a costume”. She looked at me like I was putting her on, which I was, and after she left, my Sister-in-Law’s friend said, “She’ll need years of therapy.”
The levitation trick sounds better than the coffin on the porch trick or the headless doorman trick.
我需要与我的工程师商量一下。这可能会将把易受影响的孩子们送糖果的行为提升到一个全新的……令人不安的幻觉水平。几十年来，我一直使用一对标准的小乳胶山羊角，它与我苍白的肤色非常匹配，粘在我的头上作为我的服装。除此以外，我打扮得相当……正常。例如，穿着Polo衫和卡其裤。有一个小女孩抬头看着我问：“那是真的吗？”作为一个机智的家伙，我说：“是的！”她说：“不是真的！”然后她跑回人行道上等待的母亲那里。
另一年，一个稍微年长一点的女孩在我打开门后看着我，经过漫长的停顿后带着声音颤抖地问：“你是魔鬼吗？”在我给她糖果后，我说：“我没有穿服装。”她像是认为我在戏弄她一样看着我，而事实上我确实如此。在她离开后，我嫂子的朋友说：“她需要几年的心理治疗。”
相比门廊上的棺材或无头侍者的把戏，悬浮的戏法听起来更好。

My daughter (an engineer) did exactly that! She put a structure together and brought it to our house, we have a better neighborhood for trick-or-treating. She had a friend of hers help her with the flowing robes. My husband put up some colored lights to add to the mystery. The young kids in the neighborhood were amazed. Good fun!
我女儿（一位工程师）就是这么做的！她组装了一个结构，带到我们家，我们住的社区更适合“不给糖果就捣蛋”。她找了一个朋友帮她解决飘逸的长袍。我丈夫还挂了一些彩色灯光增加神秘感。社区里的小孩子们都惊叹不已。真是好玩！

Roy Wilson to Don James
My younger brother actually had the cops called one Halloween. He’d used an old WWI U.S. Army uniform handed down in the family to make himself “headless” (a lens for seeing replaced one jacket button) and sat on the wide porch railing holding a lit jack o’ lantern in one arm. When someone came up the steps to the porch, he kicked a switch to hidden speakers that played a set of dissonant low, low notes and then stood up, holding the jack o’ lantern like it was looking at the people. There were little kids who screamed and fled in tears.
The cop just warned him but first took him across town to where another high school kid was set up in a coffin along the sidewalk up to his house, with a periscope lens looking out to watch the sidewalk, and when someone would come up he would slowly lift the coffin lid — rigged to creak, of course! — sit up, and mumble garbled words through mummy-like wrappings (though this mummy was wearing a VERY nice suit!). The cop wanted to see who scared whom!
我弟弟在一个万圣节的时候实际上被叫了警察。他用家族传下来的一套旧一战时期的美国陆军制服把自己装扮成了“无头人”（用一个镜头代替了一颗钮扣），坐在宽敞的门廊栏杆上，一只点亮的南瓜灯握在一只手臂上。当有人走上门廊的台阶时，他踢动一个隐藏的扬声器开关，播放一套不和谐的低音音符，然后站起身，像是南瓜灯正在注视着人们一样握着它。有些小孩尖叫着哭着逃跑了。
警察只是警告了他，但首先带他去了镇上另一个高中生的家，那个孩子在人行道上摆放了一个带有潜望镜的棺材，当有人走近时，他会缓慢地抬起棺材盖——当然，盖子设计成会发出吱吱声！他会坐起来，用像木乃伊般的绷带模糊不清地嘟囔着（尽管这个木乃伊穿着一套非常漂亮的西装！）。警察想看看是谁能吓到谁！

When I visited Rome these guys were all over the place and we saw the setup one morning. The guy had a number of helpers that held up an opaque cloth all around the guru so that he could mount the steel frx and arrange the robes to hide the trick. What I thought was the best part of the trick was that it actually got people to give them money.
当我去罗马的时候，这些家伙无处不在，我们在一个早晨看到了他们的设置。那个家伙有几个助手，他们举起一块不透明的布围绕着大师，这样他就能爬上钢架并摆弄长袍来隐藏这个把戏。我认为这个把戏最棒的地方是它真的能让人们给他们钱。

Plus, it would be rather trivial to make the upright out of a hydraulic cylinder and conceal a hose running to a hydraulic pump. Then the levitator could start out sitting on the ground, push a concealed switch and appear to actually rise up from the ground.
此外，使用液压缸制作垂直支架并隐藏一根连接到液压泵的软管是相当简单的。然后，漂浮者可以从坐在地上的状态开始，按下隐藏的开关，看起来真的是从地面上升起。

It's still fun. I know magic isn't real, but I love it. In my home, everyone belives in Santa Clause, The Easter Bunny, Leprechauns, etc. I'll take fun over fact 70% of the time.
这仍然很有趣。我知道魔术并不是真实的，但我喜欢它。在我家里，每个人都相信圣诞老人、复活节兔子、妖精等等。70%的时间里我更愿意享受乐趣而非事实。

John Bingamon to Dallas McKay
Why not both? Fun and facts aren't, or don't need to be, in opposition. I don't believe in Santa Claus but enjoy the mythos. I don't believe in magic, but greatly enjoy trying to understand the math/science/facts behind it.
为什么不能两者兼顾？乐趣和事实并不是对立的，或者不需要对立。我不相信圣诞老人，但我喜欢神话故事。我不相信魔术，但我非常喜欢尝试理解其中的数学/科学/事实。

I agree to a point. But the mystery is part of the fun.
在某种程度上我同意。但神秘感也是乐趣的一部分。

He doe NOT believe in Santa Claus
He is Santa Claus.
你知道男人的三个阶段吗？
他相信圣诞老人。

The n there are those goofballs who, while in a lotus position hop and claim they are levitating. They need psychiatric help.
还有那些在莲花坐中跳跃并声称自己在漂浮的那些傻瓜。他们需要心理帮助。

The Maharishi’s yogic sect claims that you can levitate once you reach an advanced level of consciousness. Practitioners spent a lot of time bouncing around in the lotus position expecting that one of these days, they won’t come back down…
Maharishi的瑜伽教派声称，一旦你达到高级意识水平，你就可以悬浮起来。修炼者花了很多时间在莲花坐上跳来跳去，期待着有一天他们不会再下来了……

My favourite thing about this picture are the people walking by in the background paying no attention at all to the dude who is apparently levitating. I get the distinct impression they are on to him.
我最喜欢这张照片的是背景中毫不关注那个看起来在漂浮的人的路人们。我强烈感觉到他们看穿了他。

They aren’t a hoax, they are a trick. People love these sorts of tricks, especially when they are done well and evoke a sense of mystery and realness. There is a multibillion dollar global entertainment industry based on this. Engineering is heavily relied upon.
他们不是骗局，而是一个把戏。人们喜欢这些把戏，特别是当它们做的很好并引发一种神秘和真实感时。全球娱乐产业以此为基础，市值达数十亿美元。这其中大量依赖工程技术。
