New Trick

Holyshnikes · Oct 1, 2008

I am working on a new trick. I know the bending coin seems stupid to some, but here me out.

Effect: Borrow a coin from the spectator and hand them a sharpie to sign their initials on it. Take the coin back and place it in your palm. Take your other palm and smush it down on top of the coin. Open your hands to reveal their signed coin bent and hand it back to them.

That is the basic idea. I have been working at it for a little while now, and it is getting pretty good. I hope to soon post a video.

I can't wait to see the video to see how u actually go about performing because to me, the description sounds a lot like the superman coin bend, but the method is probably different so...yeah...hope to see the vid soon.
But until then, keep practicing and developing the trick

Pardon me for asking, it sounds great, I was just wondering, what part of the trick is "new" per se? Is it the instantaneous bending of a coin or something else? My knowledge of coin magic is nada, admittedly.

the way you described it sounds exactly like danny's bent is preformed so don't see anything new

Bent isn't signed.

AND, 'Bent' looks quite a bit like one of Sean Fields coin bends... But thats hardly the point...

...Sounds good mate, get a video up, let us see how this differs from existing bends!

Sounds like an excellent trick, but I doubt thats the first of its kind. Who cares!!! It sound good

Obviously the bending of a coin trick is not original. I am trying a new method that is all.
