Bust*ing out a cool first dance was a little 2014 for Los Angeles magician Justin Willman and his comedian bride-to-be Jillian Sipkins and also neither of them can dance. They pulled off an amazing stunt during which the groom appeared to levitate, during their first dance. By creating their own parody of Comedy Central’s Drunk History, the couple had already gone viral earlier the week. The parody was shown at the rehearsal dinner.With their magical routine to R&B classic I Put a Spell on You, they have now doubled their internet fame. The jig saw Sipkins seemingly put a spell on her groom. The groom appears to levitate above the dance floor as their stunned guests watch on and applaud.
As proposed by the online viewers, the trick has something to do with a chair the couple moved out of the way before the levitation. And also perhaps the r^ug that had been laid down on the dance floor. Willman wasn’t giving away any secrets, like any real Magician.
He said, ‘Our big move at the end was accomplished with a mix of magic and a few thousand sit-ups,’ he told the magazine. It was a lot more fun than we expected – the practice time actually gave us a few uninterrupted hours each day leading up to the wedding – and pulling it off for our guests made it worth all the prep. The fact that people are responding so positively to the videos is really a bonus at this point. The wedding day was perfect, and now we get to see that reflected back to us by a whole bunch of strangers. It’s pretty surreal.’
The pair put the video of their trick onto YouTube after the wedding at the weekend. The video continues to increase views and was photographed by Frances Iacuzzi.
