Levitation.

Hickory tussock caterpillar.

Interestingly these caterpillars are poisonous.
I found this one dangling from a silk(?) thread like a spider.
Difficult photo as it was swinging in the wind.

If handled the caterpillar can leave behind venom that can cause a rash similar to that caused by nettles or poison ivy. Symptoms can range from slight reddening of the skin to a burning sensation with swelling and pain. Some people may experience an allergic reaction which could include nausea.
