Directory / Spectacular tricks and their clues

Description and secret of the focus:

You begin by asking for four marked coins and a silk or cambric handkerchief. Then you ask for some very serious person to help you.

This gives rise to jokes when choosing. Having finally found a volunteer to your liking, you put him in a chair in front of all the spectators.

Spreading the handkerchief on your left palm and placing four coins on it, you pinch them with your hand through the handkerchief and give it to him, asking him to hold it tight. Then, as if suddenly remembering something, say to him:

"I'm sorry, I forgot one small but important circumstance. Please allow me a handkerchief for one minute. I need to show society that there are no holes in it."

The latter should be said after you have taken the handkerchief, otherwise the audience may declare that they believe you without examination, and this will be inconvenient for you.

Taking the handkerchief, you unfold it to show that it is without holes. Unfolding the handkerchief again on your left hand, you count the coins lying on it one by one; then, casting a glance at all the spectators, declare, hastily returning to the center:

"You all saw that the four coins were actually wrapped in a handkerchief." Make some other remark in order to divert everyone's attention from your hands.

At the same moment you move the thumb of your left hand over the coins, thus covering them with a fold of handkerchief, and grasp them through this fold with the fingers of your right hand, immediately withdrawing your left hand.

Focus Passing four coins through a handkerchief

You are now holding the coins in your left hand, with the handkerchief hanging loosely around them. To viewers, the coins will appear to be inside and underneath the handkerchief, when in reality they are wrapped in an outer fold.

Wrapping it in a handkerchief, you hand it to your attendant in the audience, asking him to tell you if the money is still there, to which, of course, he answers in the affirmative.

Then you ask him to grab the handkerchief with both hands 8-9 cm below the coins and hold it as tightly as possible. Putting your wand under the armpit of your right hand and grabbing the coins (through the handkerchief) with both hands, right below, you begin to drag the handkerchief from him, pretending that you are dragging with all your might.

At the same time, you can notice that you are very pleased that this is not your scarf, because. you did not think that the helper is so strong, etc.

Meanwhile, while society enjoys the anxiety of the owner of the handkerchief, you unfold the latter and quietly pull the money out of the fold into your right hand and hold it in your palm.

Then you pull one last time with your left hand and quickly release, noticing that you are afraid and admitting defeat. Holding your wand in your right hand will give a natural look to the fact that you are holding that hand closed and will help you hide the presence of money in it.

In the meantime, your "opponent" and the audience will be convinced that the money has disappeared; but you yourself pretend that you are unaware of this fact and ask the one who helps you to give them back to you so that you can return them to their owners.

He, of course, claims that he did not receive them. With all the seriousness that you can give yourself, you insist that he has the money and that he must return it.

After his lengthy denials, you invite him to search his pockets, which you pat in turn with your wand, and none of them make a metallic sound.

Finally, when all the pockets have been searched, you, as if coming to your senses, strike him on the trousers, and a metallic clang follows each of your blows until you reach his legs, and then you exclaim:

"Yes, yes, here's the money. Be so kind as to put your foot on that chair." He does this, and you, quickly moving the wand from your right hand to your left, turn away the edge of his trousers with the fingers of your right hand, shaking it slightly, and four coins fall out, to the extreme surprise of the "victim".

This trick is done like this: you have the coins in your right hand, you stuff them with your second, third and fourth fingers under the hem of your trousers, then with your index finger and little finger, which remained free, you infringe them through the fabric and hold for a minute until you remove the remaining fingers.

Then, by shaking slightly, you let them fall out. Metallic clinking when clapped is produced in two ways.

The first method is with the help of a hollow (empty inside) metal stick, painted like a tree (as you usually use), into which a thick wire is inserted, hitting the inner walls of the stick and producing a tinkle.

The second with the help of an ordinary stick, clanging its end against the coins that you hold in your hand; with sufficient experience, the second method produces the same effect as the first.

Artificial leather for touch emulation 15.04.2024

In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>
