Male: Alright, it is Christina here.
Christina: Yes.
Male: Okay Christina, I want you to check that coin and make sure it is okay, it is just a coin.
Christina: Yes, it is fine.
Male: Okay, it is non-sense, silver and shiny but it is no trap doors or anything, it is solid here.
Christina: Yes.
Male: And I got a handkerchief as well, can you just check that handkerchief, make sure it is okay. Magicians, they always say there is something funny about the sleeves right so I am just going to pull my sleeve right back and I have not got any secret pocket in my arm alright. So there is nothing here, there are no trap doors or anything like that. Now, Christina, put the coin on my hand. What I want you to do is open up the handkerchief and lay the handkerchief over the top of my hand, that is good.
Now, this is important, people are going to say it is gone already, that is what a lot of people say so first Christina, just feel underneath the handkerchief, go inside there and can you feel the coin there?
Christina: Yes. So well.
Male: Very important and just go underneath and yes you can still feel it. Go underneath, feel it, now look. I am not going to do anything. Remember my sleeves are folded up, was the coin solid?
Christina: Yes.
Male: Watch, you would not believe. Okay, this is the explanation for gone. Now, I do not know if this is a coincidence, it is probably time we actually came clean but one of those spectators has actually decided to join us today, Wayne, could you come in. Wayne yesterday actually was not one of the spectators, Wayne is actually my magical consultant and he was working with me. You were kind of like acting like as a stooge yesterday, you were my hidden assistant and I am sure a lot of you go to the restaurant, out to dinner with friends at school and you can actually use a hidden assistant to do this impossible effect.
Now, this is how the routine goes, first of all I start of by actually rolling up my sleeve, it is important that you do this because at the end of the routine, you want to leave them with no explanation to where the object has gone and I goes not just have to be coin, it could be a key, a small ball, a card folded up. It can be anything you can literally make anything small disappear with this method but it is important that you roll up the sleeve because the last thing you want them to think is it went up your sleeve. When magicians make things disappear, a lot of people think that.
Now, you are stooge, your hidden assistant has to stop with his hands in his pocket so if you go into that position Wayne and you literally just act relax like you are watching the trick and but you are not that interest in seeing something. And the more people that are there, the better it is. You then take the coin or small object and conceal it inside your hand now, it looks like it is completely concealed but what I do to assist my hidden assistant or stooge is actually bringing it right out so it is actually sitting outside the hand and it can be easily removed.
Now, in this position you cover over the hand with the silk handkerchief and you get each spectator intern to feel and confirm that the coin is still there. So obviously in this situation, Rose is acting like our first spectator, it is better if you go to a crowd of people if you go along, it takes the heat somehow that you got an assistant, it takes the heat off if you got more people. But Rose can literally feel it under there and you can feel the coin is still there.
Now, this is the move. Wayne is hiding his hands in his pockets before that are important because when he goes back to that position in a second, is going to look very casual indeed. He literally reaches underneath and he takes the coin away at the same time is confirming still there, it is still there and he is my hidden assistant. Now, because she found our how this is done there, please do not get discourage, this is an unbelievable piece of magic, think about this for a second. Your sleeves are rolled up, no way can anything go up your sleeve, at the end you just take away the silk handkerchief, sell this for all its worth, slowly open your hand finger by finger, take in the moment, they will not believe it when that object is gone.
