completely clean coin bend i just made!!!!!

[david misner]

hey guys i just came up with yet another idea! it's a brand new coin bend that is performed with completely open hands! you bend the coin until it breaks in half! i am going to post a video of it on youtube really soon! anybody have any ideas for a name?

[Ninja]

Man I suck at creating tricks.
Try "Broken"
Cracked
Halfed

[david misner]

halfed that's pretty funny but i do like broken

[Gabe]

i made up a coin trick where it basicly mets in your fingers but i dont know what to call that can any1 help me


an idia for yours could be snaped or, haha i was about to say craked but som1 alredy said that

[Ninja]

I was thinking of Snapped xD
For Gabes trick, try Liquid or somthing along that

[david misner]

here's the video!

and yes it can be done with a signed coin. also, the coin was not switched or broken to begin with! hope you liked it!

[Raphaelr]

Do you use the bite out quarter and switch it out.

[david misner]

absolutely not. the coin can be inspected before the bend and the halves can be inspected after!

[Stryker]

Can the coin be borrowed and not switched out? Becuase Im thinking you sed a vice/another object to bend it a few times (this makes it easy to bend again) and than you just bent it in the oposite direction and it snapped.

Just a guess.

Also you could have called is Dismembered coin.

[Gabe]

hey i envited a coin bend just like that ounce dont u just do a coin switch with a coin you put it a vice so it has a crack in it then you bend where the crack is until it bracks cuz that how i do mine


not the one i invented i was talking about b4

[david misner]

no i don't put it in a vice.... and i said the coin wasn't switched.

[Stryker]

Is it a real coin?

Also I said it didn't have to be a vice. I ment it was previously bent.

[brandyn]

can it be signed?
maybe .............. broken

[david misner]

yes it can be signed no its not previously bent

[Djforlife1]

hol crap plz reveal

[Wren]

Not bad if you give me the secret i'll post my ebook " How To Deal With Hecklers " which is about dealing with the person in the crowd who says " I know how you did that " if you plan to perform your coin bend for freinds or family you'll need to know how to keep them under control.

[david misner]

ha thats funny sorry i'm not revealing it anytime soon i just submitted it to E and if it is accepted i am definately not going to reveal it. and i already have many ebooks on how to deal with hecklers so sorry man.

[nick]

can you plzz tell us how to do it is it impromtu ill tell you anything you need

[DaShark]

good job david misner.

[david misner]

ok nick of course it isn't impromptu if there was an impromptu coin bend that would be amazing. a gimmick is involved but not in the way most people would think. and thank you dashark.

[DaShark]

sounds cool. how much is it?

[david misner]

well it isn't in the market yet, so i dont know. i submitted it to E, and if it gets rejected i will submit it to other places, and maybe sell it myself, on ebay or magic4swap or something. if worst comes to worst, i will end up revealing it...

[Synful]

dude submit it to penguin magic this is awesome and they will accept almost anything.this kind of material they will put on the front page so everyone sees it

[Synful]

ok i thought of it for a while and since you said there is a gimmick it must be something you have in your hands that you hook into the coin and you just apply pressure to it if thats the case dont waste your time cause there is one exactlly like it called BOA coin bend

[marty]

i agree with synful theres something in ur hands because u dont show them clean..

[david misner]

ok guys i realize it looks dirty but believe me there is NOTHING IN MY HANDS other then the coin.

[zacha]

seems like u bent it enough to where its almost completly falling apart and you act like you struggle bending it until it snaps

ps

i also notice a crack on the tails side when its bending and you never flip it to the tails side

you did something to that side....

[david misner]

there's no crack on the tails side...

[zacha]

i saw it in the vid in the middle of the bend it looks like its only being held together by the face on the heads side

[david misner]

it cracked when i bent it in half...

[david misner]

and if you notice i'm not actually bending the coin im more folding it in half, so naturally the coin cannot crease so it cracks...

[zacha]

ok u got me

i tryed my theory on a quarter

and


i cracked the quarter in half

[david misner]

lol its ok

[zacha]

i give praise to you


its a pretty darn good trick

*clap*

[david misner]

thank you thank you your far too kind (bows). hey does anybody know somebody kinda high in the magic world that will help develop my effect so that i can market it... i submitted it to penguin and not sure if it is clean enough.... although i didnt give them the explanation, so they might come begging at my feet... lol

[zacha]

i think theres a place in hollywood called chavez school of magic

[david misner]

yea well i live in san francisco

[zacha]

nothin like a 4 hour drive down


lol

[david misner]

lol yea i need to get a breath of fresh fume

[zacha]

in your coin bemd
does it involve any tools for preparation?

[david misner]

yes you need some tools to prepare for the effect

[david misner]

hey guys guess what!!!!!!! I am probably going to sell my effect thru MJM Magic!!!! i'll send you the link as soon as it is out!

[zacha]

sweet


when you submit tricks to magic sites do you get a share of the money they get?

[RaV]

david thats a good trick but it doesn't look so clean but it is still very good..


how long i s da prep before u do da trick:D :D :D :D

[david misner]

what about it doesn't look clean? and yes you get a profit from selling thru a site. and the set up for the trick takes a few minutes, and then your good to go for tons of performances. if i do sell it through MJM, you won't have to make the gimmick though. I will send you the handmade gimmick and maybe a little somthing extra!

[zacha]

awesome

im probably gonna buy it

[david misner]

awesome! and try to get the word out that my new trick is coming out ad nd give people the link! i am going to post the 2nd part (the reformation of the coin) really soon, so be on the lookout!

[marty]

u got me ill buy how expensive is it :)

[david misner]

well... im not sure how much I'm discussing marketing with MJM now, but because i have to make and ship the gimmick, it will probably be close to 30 or 40. but that's just my guess, so dont let that dissuade you

[zacha]

holy crap

im gonna have to save up

[Ninja]

Hehe, I would buy it But I'm saving up for a Ghost decka with Metal Clip combo. Ive invented a trick this morning but I'm working on it.

Effect: Spectator choose and signs a card. The card is lit on fire and shown so the spectator KNOWS its their signed card. After the card gets all messed up its blown out and set face down. The deck is then spread out on a table face up and their card is perfectly normal and the only face down card. The burnt card is then fliped over reaveling a diffrent card.
The name might be "Cautious"

[david misner]

sounds pretty cool.
