KUNG-FU COIN GRAB
|
||
|
||
Ahh Grasshopper, when you can grab the
|
||
coin from my hand, you will be a master.
|
||
Okay, so if you ever saw the old
|
||
Kung-fu TV show, you know that
|
||
Grasshopper had to grab grains of rice.
|
||
Why nit-pick, this is still pretty good
|
||
stuff.
|
||
|
||
Have your victim hold a quarter in the
|
||
palm of their hand. Hold your hand
|
||
about eight inches above theirs and tell
|
||
them that you can grab the quarter
|
||
before they can close their hand. Offer
|
||
to let them try first if they want. It
|
||
may sound easy enough, but it is next to
|
||
impossible if tried legitimately.
|
||
Fortunately, you don't have to worry
|
||
about such handicaps.
|
||
|
||
Here's how you do it: Cup your hand,
|
||
palm downwards, about eight inches or so
|
||
above theirs. Instead of grabbing the
|
||
coin, sharply strike their hand with
|
||
yours. This will make the quarter
|
||
bounce up into your hand. Don't be too
|
||
overt about it, you want it to seem like
|
||
a natural part of just grabbing the
|
||
coin. Some people will think that the
|
||
coin is still in their fist. If you
|
||
want to make this a little more
|
||
dramatic, ask them if they still have
|
||
the coin before you open your hand to
|
||
reveal your plunder. Stress how speed
|
||
is important and how you have practiced
|
||
for years. It can be very impressive if
|
||
set up right. This is one that you will
|
||
want to practice a bit first, but once
|
||
you learn it, even when they see how you
|
||
did it, you can still beat them.
