floating table on chains?

Question

[this](https://vm.tiktok.com/TbGE8f/) floating table thing is making me frustrated because the reason why exactly it does that gives me the tip of the tongue feeling. I feel like I almost know how it works but can’t quite get there yet.

It’s called [Tensegrity](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tensegrity). The table is held up by the center chain, and is kept upright by the outer chains.
