Here's my magical re-creation of Apollo 15 astronaut David Scott's famous demonstration.

Tom,

That was pretty cool!
That would fir well with a Newton's Nightmare trick.
Is this a trick you personally created or is available on the market and if so, what's it called?
May the FORCE be with you and have a magical day!

Yes, I created the trick. I spent several years trying different methods before I hit on the one that I used in the video.
To Richard: Check out my version of the color changing plumes. https://youtu.be/lvjRLLYJsIs (also on Magic Café)

Nice one Tom. Liked the twist at the end.
Perhaps you could add the Scott Alexander bit of having a bit of sticky tape on the bottom of your shoe
to use to pick up the dropped silk.No bending down.
