Is there a way to experience Zero mavity without......

Have a hypnotist convince you that mavity does not affect you.

Video yourself acting like a tit "swimming" around being weightless.

Put on youtube.

?????????

Profit.

Live a miserable life.
 
As you pointed out they can do it with a plane heading towards the earth. So just make a DIY version of that:
1) stand in a cardboard box
2) Jump up pushing the box up with you.
3) enjoy the free-falling experience (i.e. falling at the same speed as the box) for a fraction of a second before you land.
 
All you have to do is find a way to neutralise the force of mavity. Should be simple enough. I'd start off with apples, science is always a little ironic like that.
 
We used to play in a high speed lift during our lunch breaks. It was one of those lifts that didn't stop for about 20 floors, so it dropped quite quickly for quite a long time. Jumping up in this makes you weightless and is fun, especially if you've been to the pub first.
 
You could go in a wind tunnel. What exactly are you trying to achieve? Jump from as high as you dare with an object dropped at the same time and it will fall with you, or go in a wind tunnel and flap around to your hearts content without touching the floor. Depends what you want to do really.

I don't think there is a way to experience zero g for any more than a quarter of a second or so without leaving your house.
 
One way to experience zero g/micro g without being in space, or one of those flights that simulates it would be (if memory serves) to head about 6,300 miles straight down (centre of the earth), of course that has it's own problems associated with it ;)
