Get a hamster to swallow the ball and it could be a goer...
tisme, in the first minute and 20 seconds, there is no trick. The ball is held up by the magnet. If you were the ball, you will feel weightless, meaning the forces exerting on the ball cancel each other.
The ball cannot make the wheel move any more than you can without touching the wheel. To initiate the movement of the wheel, the ball has somehow to start to move. If it moves farther from the magnet than before, the magnetic force decreases with the square of the distance between magnet and ball, the magnet won't be able to hold it suspended, the ball will fall. An additional force must act on the ball to make it regain altitude but where is the device to produce this additional force?
My first theory is the hand makes small movements to pull the ball back up.

we all know that perpetual motion does not exist unless you could somehow connect this universe to another in a different dimension.
the acceleration of the wheel is too fast to make the idea that the ball moves the wheel using only its potential energy believable.
My second theory is that there is a motor controller inside the magnet stand which acts as a rotor and there are magnets built into the wheel ring making the wheel into a rotor.

If you want free energy and power for your bike, ride it off Beachy Head. you should be able to reach about 120 mph without pedalling. At least it won't be a hoax.
If you want to know how the hoax works, ask in a couple of days. I'll let you have some fun puzzling it out first.

my third theory is he is blowing compressed air on the spokes.
The jet goes through the groove in the middle of the rim, hits the small rectangular sails that are welded to the spokes.
The steel ball is for misdirection.

There's magnets all round, so the wheel behaves like any other electric motor rotor. The coil is either under the table or in that magnet holder. There's something suspicious about his magnet holder. There's a hole in the board where he places it, and it seems to fight him back at one point as if it's stuck to the board.
Like all good magic, the trick is to fool you in the first second or so.
The arms holding the wheel are set at an extraordinary angle, so that must be to distract us.
We are treated to the classical magicians method of showing us around the device, but not inside.
The arms of the support are thick enough to hold a whole pile of mobile phone batteries, as is the base.
Quite how he motors the wheel is not clear, my preference is a small motor directly acting on the axle. If the wheel rim had magnets, I would expect to see some sort of cogging effect when it turns slowly.
At first I thought that the ball itself was the on/off switch, joining both rims, but there are so many remote ways of switching things on these days that it really does not matter.
