Curious how they managed to suspend that, I can't see any wires or cranes nearby at all.

I know you are probably not aware that you violated one of the pyrotalk forums rules.

Dave, I don't understand what rule I violated. Could you be so kind to inform me. If guilty, accept my apology and, It won't happen again. Also, why is my post still on here?

I apologize its a joke. You may have not seen the LOL in small letters. I guess you have to know that scene from Waynes World. Please feel free to talk about the Staircase

You are looking at the short version, second camera shot of this event. Here is the video in its entirety. At 1:06 to 1:24 you can clearly see the weather balloon[or UFO !!!] used to suspend the "ladder". I'm sure there are two tether lines [or possible more]on the sides to keep it stationary or else it would be moving around alot. Awesome effect, by the way. The fellow that did this in China also does daytime smoke events. I had a couple clips of his work--I will see if I can locate them.

I believe he used thin cable wire covered in powder. Yes, a hot air balloon was used to support the cable.
