That's insane.
How much money d'ya think he could win in bar bets with that trick?

Well,
Guys get a grip on reality. You can do it but maybe once out of 100 tries. There are way too many variables involved for that trick to repetative. 1 quarter in a glass ok. 10 with the glasses aranged in some mysterious way which are not commensurate with any type of controlled trajectory is silly. Dont bet on it at a bar... ![]()

Interesting....
watch at :10 on the vid. As he stands up, he definitely is palming and or changing something in his hands. I'm betting the glasses are rigged with magicians silk to each quarter. Great now I'm going to be watching it over and over to find the method.... -Nick

I think you're right. He does something with them when he stands up. There could be quaters in the glasses already. So what is flying in the air?

I can pick a dime up off the floor with the forks of fork-lift truck. Anyone know how to do that?

No, it's too thin. I don't want to turn this into the 'guess how I treated my fan' thread so:
Tilt the forks all the way forward, lower them until the front tip just touches the gound, with the dime under the forks back up slowly. The forlks drag over the dime and the tip of the fork will flip the dime as it drags off the back edge, the dime then flips into the air and (sometimes) lands right on the forks. |

Yeah, I can do that too. Lower the fork on the edge of the dime, reverse and flip it onto the fork. It does take a little practice..Whoops, saw you already revealed the technique

Another fun one for the kids is to take a quarter and push it perpendicular into dry ice and watch it 'chatter" back and forth.
