Their demo starts @0:56. bill hill under the 5 EASY BAR MAGIC TRICKS video brought up paper tricks he can do but has no way to upload. He suggested I look up "Möbius strips". I chose this one due to the "levitation" aspect. Thanks, bill hill! Learning never grows old with me. Here's the one & only other video I found about it on BC: J.S. BACH 'CRAB CANON' ON A MÖBIUS STRIP

From the Low Temperature Physics Lab:
Quantum levitation on a 3π Möbius strip track! Watch the superconductor levitate above the track and suspend below the track, without having to go across the edge.
Our track is not an "ordinary" Möbius strip with just one twist, but rather a Möbius strip with three twists -- 540 degrees, or 3π radians, thus, a 3π Möbius strip track.
You can also check out the video we made that documents the building of the track, if you want to make your own: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OQkzX...
If you have more questions about the physics or how we made the track, see our other videos:

The Möbius strip, also called the twisted cylinder, is a one-sided surface with no boundaries. It looks like an infinite loop. Like a normal loop, an ant crawling along it would never reach an end, but in a normal loop, an ant could only crawl along either the top or the bottom.
A Möbius strip has only one side, so an ant crawling along it would wind along both the bottom and the top in a single stretch. A Möbius strip can be constructed by taking a strip of paper, giving it a half twist, then joining the ends together.
Möbius strips can be any size and shape, some of which are easily visualizable in Euclidean space, and others of which are are not easy to visualize. The topology of Möbius strips make it a rare Euclidean representation of the infinite, and mathematicians have expanded on this and generalized it in the form of Klein bottles.
