I’ve seen the magnet-in-tube experiment done with an ordinary conductor
Oh, me too, in high school.
If you want to see a magnet falling freely, you can use an ordinary cardboard tube!
Well, in the link, there seemed to be some uncertainty as to whether a magnet in a superconducting tube would fall freely or be pinned.
You’d have to cool it to liquid-helium temperatures, or liquid nitrogen if you have a cool modern one, so I don’t know that you’d actually be able to see the magnet fall.

There’s this other axis you can look through...
