  Balducci levitation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Balducci levitation is a levitation illusion that was first described by Ed Balducci.

 Vatican UFO story challenged... and Boylan responds
Anyone who studies Vatican behavior knows that if Monsignor Balducci was speaking against what the Church wants its followers to believe, he would have been silenced faster than you can say Hans Kung.
Debunker Russo misses the point of the trial balloon the Church is sending up by allowing Monsignor Balducci to make benign declarations and affirmations about extraterrestrials and extraterrestrial contact as teachings of the Church.
Given the powerful, internationally-driven UFO Cover-Up, the Vatican is neither able nor willing to take an _international_ stance about its activity vis-a-vis extraterrestrial research at this early juncture in the process of world powers gradually conditioning their populations to the fact of extraterrestrial contact.

Balducci provided no details on how the wallet was to be loaded, merely that it could be done using the path inherent in the design.

The one most often credited with creating the plot is Ed Marlo, and though it is clear he wasn't the first to devise a color separation routine, he did introduce the patter premise of oil and water not mixing.
