I wasn't very impressed. He was in a door frame for one and not in an open area and he wasn't performing for anyone beside the camera, so you don't know how good the angles are. It's probably not that practical and I know it was not to impressive. May I suggest the King Rising Levitation that is one of my favorites.

This could be done anywhere and anytime. The angles are good. The only bad angle is when there is a person behind you. So the angle is like the letter V.

I hope this doesn't come out harsh, but, Well, whether this is the method or not, any spectator who is not a complete idiot would deduce that you are simply lifting yourself up using the doorframe, especially since you were breathing heavy afterwards.

Again Enzo, I say Meh. I am not impressed. You want a levitation, go watch Copperfield perform FLY. Now THAT is a levitation. There just is very few levitations (due to the nature of how they are accomplished) that work well outside of a theater environment in which you can control every nuance of what the audience sees. I'm sorry if I sound over critical I just think that there are some effects that play better on the stage than the street. Levitation being one of them.

I don't really think many laypeople are impressed with levitation's anymore on the streets. They tend to look better on the stage for the reason that Draven mentioned. On the streets they just look stupid and you have no control over your angels.
