Focus Description:

This trick is effective only if its requisite is an iron can or, better, a bucket in which champagne is cooled in restaurants.

The magician takes from his table a small bucket, such as is usually used in restaurants to cool champagne. "Empty"? - the performer asks, showing the bucket from all sides to the audience. The audience answers in the affirmative. Then the artist takes a handkerchief from the table and wipes this bucket to a shine.

Having completed the necessary preparations, the performer, holding the bucket with one hand, makes several movements in the air with the other - a fifty-kopeck coin appears in this hand, which the magician throws into the bucket. Coins appear from the artist's jacket, from his sleeves. Wherever the magician puts the bucket, coins fall into it from everywhere. The audience is at a loss - it is not clear where so many coins come from?

When the artist lifted the bucket over his head, like a hail of coins fell from the ceiling, it thundered like that.

The performer goes to the auditorium. Whatever viewer he approaches, whatever he touches, a coin falls from this place into the bucket. Here the artist approaches one young man and tilts his head over a bucket. He ruffles the young man's hair, and coins pour out of them into a bucket.

Focus secret:

First of all, the performer will need a small bucket. You can make it yourself. It is desirable that it be shiny. To do this, the bucket can be nickel-plated in the workshop, where the dishes are nickel-plated. A conical bucket looks best. Its dimensions: height 40 cm, diameter 20 cm.

In addition to a bucket, you need to purchase a dozen and a half fifty dollars (50 kopecks). Of course, they don't all have to be real. It is enough to have one. According to this sample, ten to fifteen coins can be made from aluminum. Aluminum is lightweight and coins are easy to hold in your hand. For the focus, you will also need a small linen table napkin.

Before the performance, the performer puts the bucket on the illusion table, and behind it he puts coins stacked in a column (Fig. 1).

A napkin is placed on the table next to the bucket. For the first time, the artist approaches the table, takes a bucket, shows it from all sides to the audience and puts it in its place. Then with his right hand he takes a napkin. Naturally, the attention of the audience is riveted to her at this moment. At the same time, the magician grabs a stack of coins from the table with his left hand (Fig. 2).

Holding the bucket with the same hand, he starts wiping it from the inside. Coins are located on the palm and tightly pressed against each other. The artist retains this position of the coins even when he holds the bucket. Four fingers of the left hand press the coins from the inside against the wall of the bucket, and the thumb holds the bucket from the outside (Fig. 3).

One of the coins, which should appear in the right hand, the performer hides in the middle of the palm of his right hand (Fig. 4).

Ris.4

When this coin needs to be shown to the audience, the magician passes it from the palm of his hand to the fingertips of the same hand. Holding the coin with the index finger and thumb, the artist pretends to throw the coin into the bucket. In reality, he again hides it in his palm, and lowers one of those coins that are clamped in his left hand into the bucket (Fig. 5).

So the artist does three or four times, but each time he takes the coin from a variety of places - pocket, sleeve, ear. It looks very funny. The magician then actually throws the coin into the bucket. When the coins in the left hand are running out, the performer shakes the bucket several times so that the coins rattle and bounce up. At this time, he grabs them with his left hand. By doing this two or three times, the artist thus replenishes the supply of coins in his left hand.

The main thing when demonstrating focus is the simultaneous action of the right and left hands.

As soon as the performer with his right hand made a movement imitating the throw of a coin, he must reproduce the throw of a secret coin with his left hand at the same second. If the artist demonstrates a rain of coins, he must release several coins from his left hand at once. Coins, rattling, will fall to the bottom of the bucket and create the right impression for the viewer.

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 ... >>

The attractiveness of caring men 14.04.2024

The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. A study conducted by scientists from Monash University leads to new findings about men's attractiveness to women. In the experiment, women were shown photographs of men with brief stories about their behavior in various situations, including their reaction to an encounter with a homeless person. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>

Oxygen producing stones 11.12.2021

The green stone serpentinite, which looks like snakeskin and has a liquid structure, was supposedly a key driver in oxygen recycling and helped create the atmosphere for life on Earth.

The earth is constantly in a cycle of processing water and oxygen, on which life literally depends, when tectonic plates plunge deep into the body of the planet. Elements are pulled down when parts of the crust shift each other and then "float" to the surface through active volcanoes.

"This cycle is very important. It tells you how much oxygen is above the surface and how that volume is changed and maintained by subduction," says Esteban Gazelle, associate professor of earth and atmospheric sciences at Cornell College of Engineering. And although this cycle is known, but the details of the process - how exactly subduction reproduces oxygen - has always remained the subject of discussion.

Previously, researchers looked for clues by measuring oxygen levels in the Earth's mantle, a layer under the crust filled with magma. It was possible to look there thanks to volcanoes. Some geologists have noted that acidification intensifies beneath volcanic arcs, where hydrated oceanic lithosphere plunges into the mantle. The leading theory included the oceans as a major factor: water carrying hydrogen into the mantle influenced the oxidation process. But in the new study, things are different: Oxygen enters the mantle with fluids squeezed out by pressure and heat from serpentinite.

Beneath the bottom of the oceans and seas, the process of serpentinization (when ultramafic rocks are transformed into others by the action of thermal water solutions) creates rocks with oxygenated liquids inside. And then these stones are absorbed by the mantle of the Earth.

Sooner or later, these serpentinite juices are squeezed out of the tectonic plate. If the plate moves and stands at the right angle, fluids flow out and oxygenate the mantle beneath the volcanoes. At the same time, in cold subduction zones, oxidation is even more active.
