Did Michael Jackson lean?

To do the Michael Jackson lean you must have special shoes that connect to the stage and ankle braces so you don't break your ankles while doing the lean. In moonwalker he used wires. The shoes necessary to do the famous "anti-gravity lean" are patented.


How do you do the anti gravity lean?

You can't do the anti gravity lean like Michael Jackson on your own. Michael Jackson uses a special device that holds him in place enabling him to lean beyond normal abilities. When Michael did the lean in "Smooth Criminal" he had cables holding him so he didn't fall, but since cables couldn't work in a live performance he used two pegs that pop out of the stage when needed to. His shoes had slots in them, so he slid the pegs into the slots and they hold him in place so he can do the lean. The official name for the shoes is US Patent 5255452 Method and Means For Creating Anti Gravity Illusion. Michael had the patent made so no one could use it but the patent was ended in 2005 because he didn't pay the monthly fee.

Is Michael Jackson's anti gravity fake?

Michael Jackson's patented shoe design is quite real - it has a V-shaped notch which hooks into a movable pin on the stage, allowing the wearer to lean forward without falling. The Smooth Criminal video does not use special effects such as computer-generated imagery to create the illusion.
