    Amazing Magician

    Magician always fascinate me and this is a trick I haven't seen done before.

    It's in Chinese but that doesn't matter as it's a visual trick.

    You just miss some of the quips.

    The trick with the coins is done with Magnets.

    If you watch the section at 3:12 - 3:15 obsissively then when (s)he hits the bottom of the table he already has the coin in their left hand. When the table is struck the two coins on the right click together to form one coin.

    It's very well done though. Without seeing it over and over I couldn't have picked it up

    I'm not sure how the bit where the magician sticks their hand through the 'glass' works other than that the when the tabltop is tapped in jumps around too much for glass so it must be perspex. I thought that the whole tabletop was being rotated around the disk to bring the hole into place but where did the hole go?

    Misdirection is the name of the game!

      Yes Neil, I agree. I watched the second trick as close as I could and it appears that when he taps the table, you can barely see a coin appear in his left hand as he flips it over, but it is REALLY well done! Now, as for the third trick, I have no idea! There is another one I saw, also in Japenese (it could be the same guy), where he puts his arm through the side of an aquarium to retrieve a playing card, very similar to the trick this guy did with the table. Again, extremely well done!

      It reminds me of a Criss Angel trick where he walks through a plate glass window.

        I saw how the Criss Angel trick was done on the TV show that had the masked magician reveal how to do tricks. Right down to the piece of paper from the trash. Pretty slick trick
