What help do you need? You have to be more specific. The way you're asking now, people would think your fishing for the secret or something... :roll:

Don't you see he is not asking for help publicly as to not disclose the secret?

Still asking for a pm or email is a little odd, and suspicious in my mind.

The fact that its not public means nothing.

OK, why don't we quiz him.

Who invented the Quarter Through Soda Can?

What brand of soda did Criss Angel use on Mindfreak?

Where is the opening cut for the quarter to enter through?

im glad that all you are interested, but you can ask me any questions about the effect with a pm or emailing me and then i can ask my question. the second thing is if i were to tell you what i needed help with, i would be giving away the secret, and thats not what I'm about.

I really dont see what you could need help with. ITs all very well explained in the DVD.

Maybe he didn't buy the DVD. I do respect his ways though... just like I said. I didn't mean for my previous comment to sound rude.

I don't know why so many feel like he's fishing for answers.
He's already said that the question he's gonna ask will tip the secret which is why he prefers an email or a PM.
There are a few questions that I can think of, that you just wouldn't ask in an open forum, as it would def give some clues as to how this trick is done :roll:
Plus he's already said,

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 ??

And that proves what? Nothing... for all I know he probably didnt buy it.

I just dont trust people asking for pm's. ITs just too suspicious, and I have seen way too much to trust anyone.

Personally I dont see what anyone with two brain cells would need help with. :roll:

I can see why someone would need help, as moonbeam said. And I don't know why people are being so hard on the guy! You can ask him anything about the DVD, for example what colour chairs are they sitting on? How many live performances are there? Are their any performances by Criss Angel? What soda can does he recommend you use?

I don't think he is phishing

Well, without giving too much away, I remember when I first learnt this and I encountered a few problems:

1. After the first move, getting the coin to stay where it should, was initially a problem for me - I thought I was doing something wrong at first, but I later found out that some cans don't facilitate this :? .

2. Some coins and cans don't work well together - can't really say more for fear of exposure, but I'm referring to a move later on in the routine than the one above.
We don't know what cans/coins he's using - we don't even know what country he's from :roll: .

When you've practiced this and got the right can and coin combo, then yeah, there's nothing to it, but until then, things can be nigh on impossible if you've not got the right combo :evil: .

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 ??

I didn't mean to be hard on him. I think he deserves an apology from some of you. He has done nothing wrong and you jump on him for not introducing himself or you think that he is asking for the method. I am not saying I didn't do this, but I have apologized and I think you should too.
