This trick requires some equipment for it to work successfully. The magician will need an actual rabbit, a tablecloth and a bag.
The bag with the bunny inside will be attached to the table, and it’ll be hanging down while concealed from the audience thanks to the tablecloth. For the trick to work, the magician must slide the bag into the hat to show that the rabbit has been concealed in there all along!
Floating Woman Secret
Much like the floating street art performers, the magician needs to conceal the way in which he’s making it look like the woman is floating in the air. So, how do you think he goes about doing this? Well, you’ve heard this one before, and it’s one which doesn’t even require skill per se, just carrying out the trick strategically to make sure that the secret doesn’t accidentally get revealed to audience members. The magician stands in front of a base that is connected to a metal rod in the back.
The rod stays hidden during the whole trick, so even when a hoop is run over a woman’s body, the audience doesn’t see the concealed rod. And if you’re wondering how the rod doesn’t interfere with the metal hoop, that too is designed in an ‘s’ formation so as to add to the illusion. The two chairs meanwhile, convince the audience that the woman is really levitating in mid-air, when all the while, the metal rod is what is keeping her body propped up and “floating.”
That Rabbit In The Hat Trick
When you think of a magic trick, this is likely the one that you picture. Perhaps the oldest trick in the book. The first magician who is said to have pulled a rabbit out of a hat was Louis Comte in 1814. This 200-year-old magic trick is one that any young magician can learn to perform to wow his audience members, that is if you can find a bunny rabbit lying around.
The first thing that you need is a large hat, which appears to be empty, resting on a table. The illusionist will show his audience that there is nothing inside of the hat, before he pulls a bunny rabbit out of the hat, seemingly from out of nowhere.
Biting The Coin
You have probably seen this performed before either in a magic show or on the street. The trick starts with the magician requesting a coin from a member of the audience. He then proceeds to wow the audience by biting into the coin using only his teeth. This trick makes viewers squirm as they jump to cover their own teeth, imagining how it would feel to break their teeth on steel.
The reason why the trick is so believable is that the magician takes an innocent member from the audience who has absolutely nothing to do with the trick. The magician may even ask that audience member to take a bite from the coin himself. Of course, he is unable to do it. So, how in the world does the magician succeed in doing so? Does he have shark or vampire teeth or something? Most likely not. But, he does have in his possession something else which allows him to be successful and amaze his audience.
Biting a coin in half – Secret
If you’re hoping to perform this trick yourself, you’ll be happy to know that you don’t need to go to magic school to learn how to do it. You only need one thing for the trick, and that’s a fake coin which looks like a real one. But, the difference is that a fake coin is breakable. What the trick requires of the magician is to switch the real coin that the audience member presents with the fake coin.
Of course, this has to be done in a swift enough manner so that nobody catches it. Magicians are very deceiving and many times, they aren’t performing tricks which are so challenging, but they must learn how to do them correctly and cunning enough. If this trick is performed incorrectly, you may end up taking an accidental bite out of the wrong coin and then finish your magic show with a missing tooth. Expert magicians become very skilled at being deceptive so that they’re able to move on to other more difficult tricks later on.
