David Blaine has captured the imagination of the people with his television specials. He does some pretty amazing things, seemingly scaring the hell out of numerous innocent pedestrians and inspiring awe in spectators and passersby. Some of his tricks are incredibly simple, involving magic children have learned from cereal boxes or school library books. Others, especially some of the card tricks, require a great deal of practice and dexterity to master. We will include some of these just for your information. We have to warn you however,
be sure that you really want to read what follows. The world can be
a magical place and oftimes, revealing the magic can somehow help to
erode the mystery that surrounds us. Be sure you wish to know what follows
before you read it. Sometimes, the magic is more fun and entertaining
in the long run. THE VANISHING COIN A coin is placed in the magicians hand, he makes a few passes over the coin with his other hand and BAM!, the coin disappears. This can even be done on a volunteer's hand. It's simple. The coin is a steel slug with a stamped face. He has a magnet attached to an elastic band concealed in the palm of his hand. The elastic holds the magnet by use of an "invisible" thread looped over a finger. The magnet is covered with a piece of felt to mask any noise or clinking of the coin. Once the coin "jumps" to the magnet, the thread looped over the finger is broken or released and the elastic band pulls the magnet and the "coin" up the sleeve enabling the magician to reveal empty hands. |
