He moved a symbol on a dollar to another part of the dollar.

Edited again lol

This is supposed to be a promotional trailer and even after I know what's supposed to be happening, I still find it quite hard to see :roll:

I can imagine people watching this and not having a clue what's going on - not a very professional trailer if you ask me :?

QUESTION:
If we can sue McDonalds for making us fat and cigarette companies for giving us cancer; why can't we sue Smirnoff for all the ugly gits we've sh*gged ??

IMPORTANT

I just found a big flaw with fraud!!!

I was looking over some $1 bills and noticed that different bills had different marks

i.e if the code begins with b then there is a big B and if it is k then there will be a big K. This means that when you preform the trick you have to be picky about which kind of bill you "borrow" from them.

BIG PROBLEM

Why? It's not like they're going to look at their code or write it down or anything.

I agree with Dominick. If you would come to Sweden and done it with a swedish bill for me, I wouldnt see any difference in the serialnumber or something like that. Now i have owned a singel dollar bill, for practicing magic on it, and have NEVER notice about the marked thing on it.

I'm not saying the serial number but the thing that is actually going to be moved is different on every bill.


The mark in the circle is going to be moved to the cross:

but in another note the mark is different.

so if you borrow a bill and move the mark they will take note of what the mark is so when you hand their bill back they will notice it is different or you hand them the bill that is gimmicked or printed differently.

hope this helps

Ooohhh...That could serve as a problem. I never really thought of it that way...But then again people carry around 4 or 5 different bills and you could force the one with the write letter on it on them...Just an idea.

EDIT: If you watch the video...it's a SIGNED dollar. So...The idea of a switch might be wrong? I'm not sure. Hmm...

Thanks,
