You're about to learn one of the most visual and versatile techniques in all of coin magic. It's difficult to master, but the payoff is huge.
The Muscle Pass is a technique that makes coin magic as eye-poppingly visual as any magic on earth. But, it's also a technique that takes many hours of practice to perfect. Just knowing how it works isn't enough. To get the height and control that's gonna make your reputation, you've got to practice and refine your technique beyond what most think is possible.
Without the DVD, most magicians give up on the technique and quit before they benefit from its power.
With the DVD, you'll save countless hours and frustration. You'll practice properly and make steady gains.
Noblezada takes you step by step and in detail. He shows you all of the inside work behind this revolutionary piece of magic. You'll learn all of the coolest applications of the Muscle Pass. You'll be able to make a coin appear from a completely empty hand, vanish completely, and even pass a coin through solid objects.
The Muscle Pass will add a new dimension to your coin magic, and Noblezada will help you master it faster than ever before!
Manufacturer Says
The Muscle Pass was made popular by magic inventor and FISM Award Winner, John Cornelius. John Cornelius was the first person to defy gravity with a coin using the Muscle Pass. He took an existing, under-the-radar coin sleight and created an original, visual piece of coin magic--"The Coin That Falls Up". In Kaufman's Coin Magic, John Cornelius also published "Glass-topped coin through table", which is the basis for the coin through table in this DVD. The original technique, The Muscle Pass was used as far back as the 1800's and was first published in a book entitled "Principles and Deceptions", by Arthur Buckley.

What the audience sees:
1. You show two REGULAR AND UNPREPARED rubber bands, each held between a thumb and finger. The bands and your fingers make rings. You show that there is no way to link these rings.You rub the bands against each other, and make them VISUALLY penetrate each other. This is a compelling illusion, with exactly the same visual as crazy man's handcuffs- except the bands are going IN!
2. You show that now there is no way to get out. Then, the bands visually penetrate out- ONE STRAND AT A TIME! When they are half way through, the bands can be pulled to show that the bands are REALLY HALF-WAY THROUGH! Then, the last strand pulls on the other rubber band and VISUALLY POPS THROUGH!!!
3. You offer to repeat the effect, bringing the bands up to chest height. Again, the bands penetrate IN AND OUT!
4. You then ask an audience member to hold one of the bands between their two hands. You show that the bands are definitely outside each other, and there is no way to get through.Now YOU TELL THEM EXACTLY WHERE TO LOOK! The bands immediately and visually penetrate each other RIGHT AT THAT SPOT!!! Then, they penetrate back out and you take your applause.
The above routine is 100% commercial, and has been audience tested over thousands of performances. PLUS, you will have all the tools you will ever need to construct your own personalized version of the crazy man's handcuff's:
