His stick looks like it's connected to something under the rug. You can see it pop out when the firework distraction goes off. Also, when he puts it up, you can see he tilts it into an exact spot.
It's obvious he has something in his sleeves. You can tell by the way he doesn't flex his arm. It's probably a steel frame around his arm that locks into place, connected to a body frame under his robes.

He never actually picks up or lifts up the cane off the ground, he just stands it up then the camera cuts away.
Notice he never bends or uses his left arm, in fact his hand is almost hidden in the sleeve the entire time.
I'm still curious to see what is under the rug and how far the cane actually sinks in to support the weight. Seems there would be a lot of leverage being put on a small portion of the cane. It would be funny as hell if the god damn thing broke and he fell on his ass.

Once he lifts up the cane, you see him switch it from his right hand to the left hand and then the camera cuts away.
This must be when he attaches the cane to the seating contraption.
Then you see him lift up a bit on his toes, that's when he actually sits on the seat. Once he's securely on, all he has to do is lift his legs.

Look at people being so quick to show their cynicism about the trick, as if everybody else is thinking "Whoa, he must be MAGIC!"

It's more the "Pah, he's a fraud" reaction. Of course he's a fraud! He's doing a stage illusion!

And if you think that no one on this forum is dumb enough to believe this is real....
