The coin disappears right from under your nose. The Secret of Focus
Directory / Spectacular tricks and their clues
Comments on the article
Focus Description:
Ask the viewer for a coin for a while. Give him a pencil: let him mark the coin with it. Working close to the viewer, make the coin disappear right "under his nose" by using the pencil as an impromptu "magic" wand.
Show that your hands are empty, and even pass the pencil to the viewer for verification. Then a happy ending will come: tap the pencil on the back of your left hand, and the spectator's coin will reappear.
Focus secret:
After the spectator has marked the coin with a pencil and is satisfied that he can now identify it, place the pencil in the left inside jacket pocket.
1. Place the coin in the palm of your right hand.
2. "Tossing" the coin to your left hand, actually hold it covertly in the fingers of the palm of your right hand, although, apparently, the left one is clutching the coin in a fist.
3. Put your right hand with the hidden coin in your pocket behind the pencil. Over the side of the jacket, slide the coin into the left sleeve through the hole in the lining of the jacket. The coin will fall in the sleeve up to the elbow and stay there as long as you keep your left arm bent.
4. This movement should be completely natural and smooth. With your right hand out of your pencil pocket, point your pencil at your left fist. The viewer will have no doubt that the coin is still in your left hand.
5. Slowly open your palm, demonstrating the incomprehensible disappearance of the coin. Pass the pencil to the viewer and show that both hands are empty.
6. After asking the viewer to return the pencil, you simultaneously lower your left hand, straightening your elbow.
7. The viewer's attention is drawn to the pencil. At this time, the marked coin silently falls into the palm of the left hand.
8. Closing the palm of your left hand, bend it at the elbow and tap on the brush with a pencil.
9. Slowly open your palm, demonstrating the mysterious return of the coin. Give the viewer the opportunity to identify his coin, which he lent you.

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. ... >>
| Random news from the Archive In a hot air balloon - into the stratosphere
16.03.2021
Space Perspective has agreed to lease a space and provide pre-flight preparation services at the Kosmodrome. Kennedy in Florida. They are not competitors to SpaceX or other private space companies - Space Perspective is engaged in balloon flights into the stratosphere. More precisely, they are just about to make their first flight and immediately with commercial passengers on board.
The startup was launched back in 2013 by Taber McCallum and Jane Pointer. The very first experiments showed that they were far from building a large balloon, so in the following years the company launched small balloons with various souvenirs as part of the popularization of the idea. The most significant was an advertising contract with KFC to launch a chicken sandwich into the stratosphere. And now Space Perspective says they are ready to send people flying.
The announcement uses the term "flight to the edge of space" and gives a value of 100 feet (about 000 km). However, according to the generally accepted interpretation, space begins three times further, from a height of at least 30 km. So it will be a flight in the stratosphere, and not very high - the famous Felix Baumgartner skydived from 100 km, and later there were jumps from high altitudes.
On the other hand, the declared altitude is three times that of the one at which aircraft flights are made, so the average tourist had no chance to go so far from Earth before. The flight will take place above the troposphere, in exotic conditions, while promising a good view from the capsule, a bar and a toilet on board. The cost of one seat is $75 thousand, the date of the flight has not yet been specified.
