    Yeah thats a pretty good summary of what I was trying to convey. If this didn’t levitate, no one would’ve blinked twice. But since it did, its being investigated more thoroughly to check if its one of those other things that levitate (or actually a superconductor)

      Diamagnetic materials are also pretty nice. However, normally you would use 4 magnets to make a tiny flake of carbon levitate, so using that to fake a superconductor might be too obvious.
