Coins, a glass, and Vegas

Well, we made it back from Las Vegas in one piece and fortunately with more money than we expected. Granted we still came back with less than we went with just a little more than I thought we would. Anyways, if you haven’t been to Las Vegas, it really is as fun as they say it is. All the naked girls and bright lights aside, let me say, there are some awesome magicians in Vegas. In fact I learned this beautiful piece of magic while we were there. In case you’re wondering, that’s a US Half Dollar and a Mexican Centavo. The half dollar isn’t hard to find but I had to go to a small coin shop at the shops of Planet Hollywood for the Mexican piece. Anyways, crazy… it goes right through the bottom of the glass!

Well, it’s finally here… my first original video posting. Expect many more similar to this as well as live public performances.

This happens to be one of my favorite pieces of magic as it is a simple and beautiful effect — no fancy, tricky, sleight of hand… just pure magic. This can be done at any time, any place, with any cards, and any coins.

I hope you enjoy the video. Have you made the connection with the background music? If not, we can explain more about that later. Feel free to comment and let me know what you think. Otherwise, just sit back, relax, and enjoy the magic… just try not to blink…
