The Muscle Pass

Postby ultimatecreate » Jul 13th, '06, 13:46



Any of you more advanced magicians have any tips on the muscle pass?

Looks amazing - saw this performed as a 'reversing gravity' effect dropping the coin from one hand to the other the dropping the coin up (if you can imagine) in an amazing slow motion. Notice there isn't a lot on this pass on the talk magic forum. Any advice?

Saw this performed by Chris Priest (Millennium British Champ of close up magic) at a lecture last night in the Ilford Magic society. Anyone attend by any chane?

To successfully achieve a muscle pass, start by getting a SOLID classic pass.

There's a thread on the TM forums, try a search ;)

You mean where a coin appears to levitate from one hand to vertically up to the other? It's on Rich Fergusons Poker Chip Tricks Volume 1. There may be somewhere better to learn it, but I haven't seen it anywhere else yet...

I've been playing with this a lot recently, it's taken 3 months to get it to a half decent standard. Check out www.coinvanish.com for a good tutorial including a video.
