Yes, without the bus and the apparently fake arm that is holding him up. I suppose his real arm is tucked into the unusually baggy clothes.

The “arm” touching the bus is made of carbon fiber. The shirt and vest is hiding a sophisticated harness, and his real right arm.

The real arm is slightly visible and being held across his chest. I am guessing it is slipped into some sort of shoulder harness.

How does he get into and out of said harness with people watching?

Or did he just appear from around a corner already hanging there and then disappear around another corner to “unload”?

No, I don’t believe he can levitate, I just want to know how he started and ended the trick.
