What an amazing performance! Totally at a loss to explain where that copper coin came from, vanishes when your hands were totally empty, and that double climax ending was killer! Why didn't you put this one in your book lol. You done did David Roth proud, and should have gotten a trophy IMHO. Congrats!
Thank you so much! I actually sold a smaller version for close up performances. It ended with the appearance of the copper and silver coin under the hand, instead of the big coin. A different ending, but also with a nice display to finish.
Dear Dr. Rubinstein, I absolutely love everything about this masterful routine - the props, the scripts, the sleights with visual and auditory misdirection and double-surprise at the end. I am actively studying the routines In your book, and appreciate how carefully thought through the books’ organization is and the incredible magic and humor in between the pages. Your book is a generous gift to us. Wishing you good health!!!
I think the biggest compliment to any magician that preceded is to do their trick, whether the same or add different touches, knowing they won’t fool Penn and Teller. Absolutely beautiful and wonderful and the dialogue for the trick was perfect
It was actually an original trick, but used some phrases that David Roth made popular, and used his idea of adding props to create magicial theatre. It is also based on another Roth trick, called the Sleeve. If you get a chance, look it up, it is wonderful. Thanks for commenting!
@@renaminginprogress6903 Thank you. I really enjoyed incorporporating lines of David's into the patter, not only because they worked so well, but I knew it would trigger recognition and memories from the magicians who saw the spot. I wanted to say at one point, "a half dollar, a fifty cent piece, A SILVER COIN", but the producers wanted to insert a little joke to replace a joke and sequence that they cut out of the routine for time. At least I got the first two parts of that in! I am sure you also recognized the famous line from The Tuning Fork, as well as a few other things I used from other Roth routines. Thanks for mentioning it!!
I can only think of 3 coin routines that fooled them off the top of my head. There is not a lot of wiggle room when it comes to coins. They simply know the moves.
@@TinkerTailorSoldier1 funny thing, 2 of those 3 routines didn't really fool them. Eric Jones won because they miscalled the name of the gaffed coin. Eric Meade won because he started by quoting the thoughts of one of the judges that in order to fool a magician you just need to fool them with 10%of the trick. They went with it, but that rule would cause them to be fooled much more than they are, so they only did it once. The third guy did a commercial trick called Three Fly, and they thought he was doing the standard trick, but only afterwards realized he did something else , so he got awarded his trophy in a later show. My understanding was that if they expected one thing and they got surprised, that would be enough to "fool" them. I had several surprises in the trick - the appearance of the copper coin, the complete vanishes, and the two kicker endings. Did they know? I have no idea. I can only assume they talked about it with the judge, and he was satisfied they knew enough. But they never mentioned any of that in the post- performance conversation, so who knows.
@@rubinsteincoinmagic I forgot about the 3 fly guy. I was thinking of Ryan Hiyashi (probably misspelled his name). Pretty much did a card/coin matrix. Ended up with a FU Trophy. Then with the Eric guy, I think they accidentally said he had a gimmicked “turtle” coin but I guess it wasn’t is what you’re saying?
Oh yes, Ryan didn't fool them, they just enjoyed his presentation. Eric did use a "turtle" but only in one part. They knew he used something, but just miscalled what it was. If they just said they knew he used something special, he wouldn't have won. But again, the important thing to the producers is not the fooling part. They just want a good performance, and don't want any arguing about the method. If it looks like a challenge, rather than have a back and forth they go right to the judges. Best thing is just to smile and agree and look like a good guy, not an a-hole. The first time I presented I did a trick the producers wanted because they liked the story. I knew they would know the basic method because the idea was standard, even though I used my own techniques. So I changed the ending thinking it would fool them, and they never mentioned it. I challenged them in a nice way, and they answered but in doing so gave away the method to a lot of people who wouldn't have gotten it. So, lesson learned.
That was a tour de force of slight of hand. He is so good at manipulating coins in his hand that he was even half showing us an open palm...but he was still holding them. I couldn't keep up with everything he was doing...wonderful magician.
That was a fun & amazing performance. Very interesting prop with the hand too. Thank you for the tribute to David Roth. He was a great performer on Penn & Teller. He would've been so proud!
A great act, and even better tribute to your mentor. I especially appreciate that you weren’t trying to fool P&T, but just honoring your mentor, and that touches my heart!
Wonderful - magic as a performance art at its best - even though you kinda sort of know how its done you can still suspend that and enjoy the show and admire the skills and dedication involved to flawlessly deliver - it takes me back to being a six year old kid again with all the awe and wonder of an adult pulling a coin out of my ear. Fantastic show and wonderful performance reminding us what magic routines should be about!
Great routine, really enjoyed this one and I was actually thinking of of the similarity of cups and balls even before Penn said it and done so smoothly too. Great magic!
Wonderful routine, and such a beautiful tribute piece. I imagine David would've been happy to see his props being used this way. Your performance is stunning, and your style is delightful. I recently got both your book and David's, and have been slowly making my way through both (I haven't even gotten past the first sections!), and it's lovely to see the techniques in action here. Thank you
Thanks so much! All the techniques used in that routine are taught in the first section. Although the books are different, there is more than enough coin magic to keep you busy for quite a while! Enjoy!!
Beautiful and clean routine. The ending was fantastic, no idea how you managed to slip the big coin in. Great performance, makes me wanna learn coin magic! Well done sir!
A great performance, I think I may have spotted one of two things, but everything was so smooth it didn't really matter if was a pleasure to watch. I get the feeling that fooling P&T was only a part of the reason for appearing on the show, the rest was to pay respects to a really great magician. Mission accomplished.
That kind of performance must be heartbreaking for Penn & Teller because even though it was masterfully done and it's a tribute to a guy he respected they can't just go and give out the trophy because it's perfect if they know how it's done.
I don’t think it’s heartbreaking because they all know there are different goals in performing on Fool Us. Some people want the trophy, some want promotion, some want to honor P&T as role models, and some want to pay tribute to their beloved late friend. They don’t want to give all the amazing people trophies. They want to celebrate the art of magic. That’s why they also perform and that’s why they always have such uplifting feedback for every single performer.
While i was not fooled too, the performance was really smooth and gentle and I enjoyed it a lot. It was very calm, relaxing. Big respect for the art of performing.
Slight of hand needs a bit of work. But he is smooth as you say. I can't do better, Magic just a hobbie. I have a bunch of Brian Brushwoods stuff at home. Wallet is similar to the purse.
@@FoodWithShay I did watch it again and at the end, Penn gave a little bit more away than I previously realized. Nevertheless, a beautiful routine and as smooth as when I saw it the first time. If I did not pay attention, I would be fooled. Also, knowing how a trick is done is something completely different than being able to execute it. I am no magician, I would never ever be able to do this, maybe with some training, but certainly not on this level of smoothness. The beauty is that we can enjoy something even if we generally know how it is done.
Beautiful routine - I understood some of the sleight of hand in the beginning. And with understood I mean that I know what happened, but I didn't see it happening.
Thanks so much! Today a dog came into my office after having eaten tulips. Tulips, and a nose....😂 I told him the dog was suffering from an overbite😂 The clients told me they got him from a pound. The clients before him got their dog from a quarter pound. 😅 The dog had behavoral issues , but he finally got him to shit down 😂 I guess he finally learned his pees and cues 😅 And I'm here all week...
@@rubinsteincoinmagic ooh, a nefarious punster after my own heart! Dad jokes are best jokes (because you sure as hell can't tell the back of house clinic jokes in front of house!)
That would be for Howard to decide. Each performer needs to seek permission from the show in order to post a clip of their performance. However, you can watch the show by adding the CW app for free, and then you can see each episode.
Hi and thanks for commenting. This was an original routine. I used some of David's classic lines, and his purse and coins. The idea of the tribute was to do a trick with props as David did, to create a piece of magic theatre as opposed to just another coin trick. It loosely based on a wonderful routine of David's called the Sleeve. Check it out, as it is the same concept and my favorite routine of David's.
P&T may know, but I don't, and I am not even going to try to figure it out. It was a fabulous, free flowing piece of entertainment, so I am just going to enjoy it by hitting play video again.
Amazing routine! Just curious but it seems that Allyson didn’t recognize you from your first performance (ie didn’t remember you were a veterinarian)…is that just the editing of the post-trick banter?
They didn't use it in the 20 second intro because it didn't fit with the Roth thing. Neither Allison or Penn recognized me from the prior appearance. My guess is that the producers never mentioned it to them, and they wouldn't remember, especially because I look different (hair loss). I actually met Penn while he was on his book signing tour, and when I got to him I mentioned I was on the show this season (it filmed in May). He looked at me with no recognition until I mentioned the trick I did, then he realized who I was. I told him I was also on season 5 and it didn't seem to register with him. I had him sign a photo from the show of me both from this season and the last time I was on (which he did). Anyway, thanks for your question and glad you enjoyed the routine!
Did they actually know? I’m sure there guess is easy to say you didn’t fool us! But actually how when banging the hands on the last routine can they explain that he didn’t fool them. This was great much better than balls and cups. Amazing ❤
@@danielpanatha although the main theme of the routine was appearance in 2 impossible locations (hand or purse), the routine also contained tricks known as Spellbound (color change), A transposition (copper and silver changing places), a production (the change), and a large coin finish (the climax). Tricks are often routined so the main effect is not a one shot deal which would last 5 seconds - so you get repetition in magic like with coins going across from one hand to the other (Eric Jones), Coins assembling one at a time under playing cards (Ryan Hyashi), coins vanishing one at a time to appear inside a cylinder (Eric Meade), and coins going through a table, as well as any card trick - production of 4 aces one at a time, ambitious card where a selected card keeps movinf to he top of the deck, etc. Take a look at the coin effects of the great David Roth - coins appearing under a black hole, coins changing one at a time from copper to silver, and so many more. So, what's your point?
I'm a little confused. If David Roth "fooled" them and you copied his act with your spin on some of the tricks, did P&T figure out in-between acts? They could have said the same thing to Roth. Just a variation of "cups and balls" But like stated, "the trophy is just a gimmick."
David Roth changed the face of coin magic by adding props to extend the magic, and make it a theatrical experience. You should look at his many wonderful routines on RUclips. My tribute was an original routine that emulated David's ideas of using props, and I even used some of his patter lines that are well known to magicians. Penn and Teller know David's style of magic, and it is no secret in the magic world that we performed and lectured together, including putting on the well-known New York Coin Magic Seminars. Penn was alluding to coins appearing under the hand as a cups and balls routine, but it is more like Al Goshman's Salt and Pepper shaker routine (you should watch that as well, it is a classic). I don't really know if the guys understood the entire routine, but really, they just need to know the basic idea. Thanks for your question.
I’m sorry for saying it but i must know if I’m the only one getting this visual issue. On some camera angles the slightly oversized jacket makes it look like he has tiny hands. Is that only me?
I'm not even sure they weren't really fooled. Yes, it looks like a variation of cups and balls and sure, you must have used some basic techniques. But they didn't throw in enough clues to let us understand if they exactly did know how you did it. So, this may even be a secret fooler, like that guy with the casino chips had achieved once. They gave him the trophy later, acknowledging they had not really sorted it out as it wasn't done the way they thought.
Thanks for your comment. Personally, I think there were more than a few surprises that could not be anticipated, although maybe in trying to backtrack they were able to understand some of them. But if Penn and Teller understand the basic premise, that is usually enough for them. And that's O.K. The real point of the show is to showcase good magic. The award thing is just the gimmick that sells the show. Honored that I was asked to be on the show twice. Glad you enjoyed it!
The sleight coin techniques were very good but wouldn't work in close-up magic which is why penn and teller were kept 20 metres away. So unfortunately, despite some really nice moves, performing a close-up coin routine that can't be performed in the real world as a close-up coin routine was somewhat disappointing for me.
It certainly can be done close-up. There is no need for Penn and Teller to be at the table as there is no audience participation, and they sit in their normal seats. Their seats are fixed so they really can't move them up or back, and that is the best location for viewing. They also have monitors so they can watch the close-up camera view should they desire. The trick is big enough for parlour work, but for extreme close-up the routine is performed in similar fashion with the same but smaller props (there is a promo for it elsewhere on RUclips), although the larger props work just fine.
Well in that case I did not know that she even had a cat but she didn't say what her cat's name was did she ever tell you during the break what her cat's name was and what's wrong with it
Anyone else think Allison Hannigan has THE MOST annoying presentation voice on TV? It sounds both whiney and patronizing at the same time. She would make an AMAZING pre-school nanny or Kindergarden teacher, but TV presenter? ...meh...bring back Jonathan Ross
The reason Allison, Penn, and Teller wear the same outfits is for continuity. The people that perform on a given day are divided up to give a diverse show every week. For example, 4 card guys may perform one day, but will be divided up into 4 different shows so that each show will have variety. Also, this way, each show will usually have one winner on it. Since the performers are spliced up into different shows, Allison, Penn, and Teller wear the same outfit for each season.
Yes, it was done very well! But I wonder then if you know how the trick was done. Aside from the coin under the hand (basic plot), do you know where the copper coin came from, the two times the copper and silver coin vanished completely, and the two endings? It was also a surprise to me how the coins kept appearing in the purse. Penn and Teller never mentioned any of that, so I don't really know if they know.
Explain it. Explain the complete vanishes, the appearance (and vanish) of the copper coin, the surprise endings. And do it without trying to rewatch in slo mo, and reconstruct, like Penn and Teller. One time. Then I will delete you. let's see how 101 it is for you 😉
@@rubinsteincoinmagic You took that quite personally. Don't get me wrong, you have a lot of skill. But the skill is quite text book. It was never going to fool them. Delete me if you feel that will make you feel better.
@@chrisklugh see here's the thing. I read all the time (here and on other's segments as well) how obvious or easy a trick is. But no one ever actually says how it's done. The truth is, Penn and Teller know the basic idea because it is a common theme in magic (object appearing under something), but do not know everything (which is why they didn't comment on the rest). I am not even sure they understood that it was an original plot, and not one of David Roth's tricks! However, it is their game and they only have to tell the judge the basic premise, and often that is enough to "win". The producers don't care much about the winning thing, as far as they are concerned everyone who gets on the show is a winner. And they are right. You are told this from the moment you are accepted. The idea is to play along, nod, and gracefully leave to applause. You have to remember that it is their show, and you are a guest. So when I read someone tell me it was a basic trick, anyone can do it, or it would never fool them, I just shake my head because there is a lot of secret stuff in this routine that goes by everyone. Even the magic judge told me at our first meeting which part fried him. I have deleted a few comments in the past because they were either rude, or actually figured out something that I don't want the rest of the people reading to know (why spoil it for them). So that is why I responded to you as I did. The trick is anything but textbook, but the moves are taught in MY textbook, Rubinstein Coin Magic. Best wishes for a happy and healthy New Year.
@@rubinsteincoinmagic Yes, agreed. And that is why I do not want to elaborate much on this. Sorry if my original comment maybe poked you a bit. My intent was more so from a perspective of 'Would this Fool Them', as per the theme of the show. Its not taking away from your abilities, as you are good at what you do. But the premise is still as old as magic itself and was not going to get by Penn and Teller. So when I watch the show, I give/get more 'bang for my viewing dollar' more to those the credit when someone does something that does challenge or Fool these guys. I try to see it from their point of view, not from someone that is in awe and wonder of it all as per your most usual audience. I know you would entertained me had I been there to watch it with my own eyes. ;)
Beautiful magician's magic! But... Far too long for a lay-person to pay attention-to for that long! Remember, nobody cares as much about the moves as you!!! Magicians will love it, and some will buy it ;-)
This is literally the closer for my normal show for laymen. Laymen don't know what moves are, they focus on the magic of the coin appearing in impossible locations, changing, vanishing, and transforming. Far from being too long (and not as long as others done on Penn and Teller), but made for a formal show ( not for table hopping or to show casually to friends). And thank you, the routine with props has almost sold out. But thanks for your input.
Though a huge fan of Roth's work and coin magic in general, this routine kind of seemed boring inspite of me being a fan of Rubinstein's since 2006.. This routine really needs to be worked on and fine-tuned further more.. 🙄
Thanks for your input. This routine was developed and choreographed over many months, uses sophisticated techniques, and is exactly the way I wanted it. The structure is loosely based on Roth's The Sleeve. But hey, can't please everyone.
What an amazing performance! Totally at a loss to explain where that copper coin came from, vanishes when your hands were totally empty, and that double climax ending was killer! Why didn't you put this one in your book lol. You done did David Roth proud, and should have gotten a trophy IMHO. Congrats!
Thanks so much! I wonder if Penn and Teller were fooled by those same things as well!
@rubinsteincoinmagic , hello Mike. Its Jerry. It's been a long time. Are you still in the area?
So so great. That ending image is so gorgeous and artful. Open rubber hand large coin and assorted with the purse. Just lovely!!🎉🎉🎉
Thank you so much! I actually sold a smaller version for close up performances. It ended with the appearance of the copper and silver coin under the hand, instead of the big coin. A different ending, but also with a nice display to finish.
Absolutely beautiful and flawless display of your craft. You look effortless which means you must have put 30 years into this. Just wonderful Doc

Is there somewhere I can see David's performance it doesn't seem to be on RUclips? Lovely tribute ❤
Hi and thanks for commenting. This was an original routine. I used some of David's classic lines, and his purse and coins. The idea of the tribute was to do a trick with props as David did, to create a piece of magic theatre as opposed to just another coin trick. It loosely based on a wonderful routine of David's called the Sleeve. Check it out, as it is the same concept and my favorite routine of David's.
P&T may know, but I don't, and I am not even going to try to figure it out. It was a fabulous, free flowing piece of entertainment, so I am just going to enjoy it by hitting play video again.
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it!
I definitely want to give you my ✋ 🤚 👏
Thank you!
I love this act I don't know why it made me think of if you give a mouse a cookie lol
Wow
The jumbo finish fooled me!
You still the boss
Super Trick.
Thanks so much.
Amazing routine! Just curious but it seems that Allyson didn’t recognize you from your first performance (ie didn’t remember you were a veterinarian)…is that just the editing of the post-trick banter?
They didn't use it in the 20 second intro because it didn't fit with the Roth thing. Neither Allison or Penn recognized me from the prior appearance. My guess is that the producers never mentioned it to them, and they wouldn't remember, especially because I look different (hair loss). I actually met Penn while he was on his book signing tour, and when I got to him I mentioned I was on the show this season (it filmed in May). He looked at me with no recognition until I mentioned the trick I did, then he realized who I was. I told him I was also on season 5 and it didn't seem to register with him. I had him sign a photo from the show of me both from this season and the last time I was on (which he did).
Anyway, thanks for your question and glad you enjoyed the routine!
"You're a doctor? I should bring my kids to see you!"
"I'm a veterinarian."
"That's okay! My kids are animals!"
😆
Better answer than Allison 😆
@@rubinsteincoinmagic Yeah, she missed an opportunity there. Great show, man! I have no idea how you did it and that's okay with me.😁
@@johnshite4656 thank you 😊
Next time, you should take a cue from Penn and Teller and do the trick with a transparent hand.
LOL!! Buone feste Mike!
Did they actually know? I’m sure there guess is easy to say you didn’t fool us! But actually how when banging the hands on the last routine can they explain that he didn’t fool them. This was great much better than balls and cups. Amazing ❤
❤❤❤
Who cares if you fooled them that was a good show
Is it just me or did David look very similar to Teller?
I felt like it was the same trick over and over.
Cause it was!
@@danielpanatha although the main theme of the routine was appearance in 2 impossible locations (hand or purse), the routine also contained tricks known as Spellbound (color change), A transposition (copper and silver changing places), a production (the change), and a large coin finish (the climax). Tricks are often routined so the main effect is not a one shot deal which would last 5 seconds - so you get repetition in magic like with coins going across from one hand to the other (Eric Jones), Coins assembling one at a time under playing cards (Ryan Hyashi), coins vanishing one at a time to appear inside a cylinder (Eric Meade), and coins going through a table, as well as any card trick - production of 4 aces one at a time, ambitious card where a selected card keeps movinf to he top of the deck, etc. Take a look at the coin effects of the great David Roth - coins appearing under a black hole, coins changing one at a time from copper to silver, and so many more. So, what's your point?
@@rubinsteincoinmagic I think he was being facetious :P
There's supposed to be a rule about that.
Dr Dr
This makes me want to buy a sham wow
You should. Amazon has them at the best price. The Vegamatic is on sale as well.
I'm a little confused. If David Roth "fooled" them and you copied his act with your spin on some of the tricks, did P&T figure out in-between acts? They could have said the same thing to Roth. Just a variation of "cups and balls" But like stated, "the trophy is just a gimmick."
David Roth changed the face of coin magic by adding props to extend the magic, and make it a theatrical experience. You should look at his many wonderful routines on RUclips. My tribute was an original routine that emulated David's ideas of using props, and I even used some of his patter lines that are well known to magicians. Penn and Teller know David's style of magic, and it is no secret in the magic world that we performed and lectured together, including putting on the well-known New York Coin Magic Seminars. Penn was alluding to coins appearing under the hand as a cups and balls routine, but it is more like Al Goshman's Salt and Pepper shaker routine (you should watch that as well, it is a classic). I don't really know if the guys understood the entire routine, but really, they just need to know the basic idea. Thanks for your question.
It was fun and entertaining, but there was no way this would fool P&T.
Alison offering a polite but not very thrilled nod at 4:33
The coins changed places. Did you expect a standing ovation?
I’m sorry for saying it but i must know if I’m the only one getting this visual issue.
On some camera angles the slightly oversized jacket makes it look like he has tiny hands. Is that only me?
Yes, yes it is.
Do you guys realize that with that transcript, you can't watch these tricks on a phone?
It's going to be really hard to fool Teller with coin tricks...
🎈🎈👌👌👏👏👏👏👏👏
I'm not even sure they weren't really fooled. Yes, it looks like a variation of cups and balls and sure, you must have used some basic techniques. But they didn't throw in enough clues to let us understand if they exactly did know how you did it. So, this may even be a secret fooler, like that guy with the casino chips had achieved once. They gave him the trophy later, acknowledging they had not really sorted it out as it wasn't done the way they thought.
Thanks for your comment. Personally, I think there were more than a few surprises that could not be anticipated, although maybe in trying to backtrack they were able to understand some of them. But if Penn and Teller understand the basic premise, that is usually enough for them. And that's O.K. The real point of the show is to showcase good magic. The award thing is just the gimmick that sells the show. Honored that I was asked to be on the show twice. Glad you enjoyed it!
Easy, the hand is just Thing from Wednesday
😂
Penn and Teller are rude, they show appreciation for Dr. Rubinstein and then at the end dismiss his work. Pretty low class. These are weird times.
Who knew veterinarians retired?
You are right! As far as I know, only auto mechanics retire 🤣😅😂
SO.........................please EXPLAIN how these were done, if you were not tricked by him!!!!!
Well he fooled me
Thanks for watching. I'm glad you enjoyed it!
I’d give you a hand, but looks like you already got one
😅🤣😂
Thats Patrick Stewart
Shut up Wesley! 😁
Bro barely even fooled me with that🤦🏻♂️💀
Tough crowd
good audience huh?
Virtual
The sleight coin techniques were very good but wouldn't work in close-up magic which is why penn and teller were kept 20 metres away. So unfortunately, despite some really nice moves, performing a close-up coin routine that can't be performed in the real world as a close-up coin routine was somewhat disappointing for me.
wtf dude? lol
It certainly can be done close-up. There is no need for Penn and Teller to be at the table as there is no audience participation, and they sit in their normal seats. Their seats are fixed so they really can't move them up or back, and that is the best location for viewing. They also have monitors so they can watch the close-up camera view should they desire. The trick is big enough for parlour work, but for extreme close-up the routine is performed in similar fashion with the same but smaller props (there is a promo for it elsewhere on RUclips), although the larger props work just fine.
Wait did she that she has a cat I thought she has a dog or is about to get a dog unless she was just kidding about the cat thing.
She does have a cat, and when we talked (there was a lot of footage they don't use) she said it wasn't doing well.
Well in that case I did not know that she even had a cat but she didn't say what her cat's name was did she ever tell you during the break what her cat's name was and what's wrong with it
@@kathrynnpetersen8876 she did not.
Anyone else think Allison Hannigan has THE MOST annoying presentation voice on TV? It sounds both whiney and patronizing at the same time. She would make an AMAZING pre-school nanny or Kindergarden teacher, but TV presenter? ...meh...bring back Jonathan Ross
Same outfit again alison
The reason Allison, Penn, and Teller wear the same outfits is for continuity. The people that perform on a given day are divided up to give a diverse show every week. For example, 4 card guys may perform one day, but will be divided up into 4 different shows so that each show will have variety. Also, this way, each show will usually have one winner on it. Since the performers are spliced up into different shows, Allison, Penn, and Teller wear the same outfit for each season.
@@rubinsteincoinmagic poor production then
Alyson - why are you wearing that terrible judo outfit? What happened to your great sense of dress wear?
It was well done, but it's far to basic to fool Penn and Teller.
Yes, it was done very well! But I wonder then if you know how the trick was done. Aside from the coin under the hand (basic plot), do you know where the copper coin came from, the two times the copper and silver coin vanished completely, and the two endings? It was also a surprise to me how the coins kept appearing in the purse. Penn and Teller never mentioned any of that, so I don't really know if they know.
Pretty 101 stuff here. Not fooling anyone. But I'm sure your quite entertaining for your everyday gigs.
Explain it. Explain the complete vanishes, the appearance (and vanish) of the copper coin, the surprise endings. And do it without trying to rewatch in slo mo, and reconstruct, like Penn and Teller. One time. Then I will delete you. let's see how 101 it is for you 😉
@@rubinsteincoinmagic You took that quite personally. Don't get me wrong, you have a lot of skill. But the skill is quite text book. It was never going to fool them.
Delete me if you feel that will make you feel better.
@@chrisklugh see here's the thing. I read all the time (here and on other's segments as well) how obvious or easy a trick is. But no one ever actually says how it's done. The truth is, Penn and Teller know the basic idea because it is a common theme in magic (object appearing under something), but do not know everything (which is why they didn't comment on the rest). I am not even sure they understood that it was an original plot, and not one of David Roth's tricks! However, it is their game and they only have to tell the judge the basic premise, and often that is enough to "win". The producers don't care much about the winning thing, as far as they are concerned everyone who gets on the show is a winner. And they are right. You are told this from the moment you are accepted. The idea is to play along, nod, and gracefully leave to applause. You have to remember that it is their show, and you are a guest. So when I read someone tell me it was a basic trick, anyone can do it, or it would never fool them, I just shake my head because there is a lot of secret stuff in this routine that goes by everyone. Even the magic judge told me at our first meeting which part fried him. I have deleted a few comments in the past because they were either rude, or actually figured out something that I don't want the rest of the people reading to know (why spoil it for them). So that is why I responded to you as I did. The trick is anything but textbook, but the moves are taught in MY textbook, Rubinstein Coin Magic. Best wishes for a happy and healthy New Year.
@@rubinsteincoinmagic Yes, agreed. And that is why I do not want to elaborate much on this. Sorry if my original comment maybe poked you a bit.
My intent was more so from a perspective of 'Would this Fool Them', as per the theme of the show. Its not taking away from your abilities, as you are good at what you do. But the premise is still as old as magic itself and was not going to get by Penn and Teller. So when I watch the show, I give/get more 'bang for my viewing dollar' more to those the credit when someone does something that does challenge or Fool these guys. I try to see it from their point of view, not from someone that is in awe and wonder of it all as per your most usual audience.
I know you would entertained me had I been there to watch it with my own eyes. ;)
Beautiful magician's magic!
But...
Far too long for a lay-person to pay attention-to for that long!
Remember, nobody cares as much about the moves as you!!!
Magicians will love it, and some will buy it ;-)
This is literally the closer for my normal show for laymen. Laymen don't know what moves are, they focus on the magic of the coin appearing in impossible locations, changing, vanishing, and transforming. Far from being too long (and not as long as others done on Penn and Teller), but made for a formal show ( not for table hopping or to show casually to friends). And thank you, the routine with props has almost sold out. But thanks for your input.
Not to good
Sorry you didn't like it. You might want to edit your spelling.
@@rubinsteincoinmagic Lmao you didn’t have to roll him like that 😂
This indeed was an AMAZZZING tribute and 👌🏽you🤍💙 really made it look😇 awesome!
Though a huge fan of Roth's work and coin magic in general, this routine kind of seemed boring inspite of me being a fan of Rubinstein's since 2006.. This routine really needs to be worked on and fine-tuned further more.. 🙄
Thanks for your input. This routine was developed and choreographed over many months, uses sophisticated techniques, and is exactly the way I wanted it. The structure is loosely based on Roth's The Sleeve. But hey, can't please everyone.
