David Roth Coins Across

[@KenDodd1317]

I love doing this trick. I still love watching David do it. His close up magic was special. It’s great that we can still see him perform his miracles. RIP.

[@alenandrejcic5098]

Rip legend

[@RodZilla11]

I had no idea Mr. Roth had passed. Truly sad. He was such a magical genius. Even if you think you know how he did it, you could never SEE IT, in the performance. He'll be missed.

[@warrentredaway1666]

Only one word for David Roth .......Legend

[@alanmurray5963]

Rest easy David. Very talented man.

[@eddylindner1317]

Always a Pleasure to watch the "King of Coin Magic". Thank You.

[@bass_rhythm]

R.I.P Legend of Coin Magic.

[@marvinchan5812]

the legend of coin magic sir david roth, thank you i've learned a lot from you.

[@umtemaisumoutrote]

wow, I have been trying this for ages, with almost zero improvement, but your technique helped me finally get it! thank you professor Roth!

[@jacques8277]

Rest in peace you legend, you'll be much missed.

Thanks Roth....

RIP David...a legend in coin magic

[@jason420jv1]

I love Roth's spidergrip vanish!

[@carlosramos720]

Una leyenda, gracias maestro.

[@EzaVinylAddict]

Just getting into coin work myself and wanted to see the legend at work this is astonishing.

[@shannonsmith1520]

David made you feel good.😎

[@ronno108]

RIP David.

[@hongkonghacker]

I like the ball trick and the coin box trick

[@Useless_no_use]

he said that he will teach.... :(

[@quentinscott7029]

Manas Sharma youre stupid

[@Golack107]

You can known how the trick was done of you pay attention.

[@nicktumia5078]

I know Wth!

[@RingJando]

@2:15 Roth is looking back with that 'deer in the headlights' look (that's an amateurish reflex to hide the move) his right hand is unnaturally clenched (surprising) & heading for the classic palm (tension in the thenar eminence betrays the right hand) in advance of the drop & carry over to the left hand. Imagine if David used a shell? Yes, to keep the one-ahead going & rather mediocre in artistry I will say; with a lot of filler and an unfulfilled promise from David Roth; cardinal rule is broken here-magician must keep his word to his audience that he would teach the moves @0:08 . I am rethinking 'living' Legend -

[@UomoSecreto]

@@RingJando I'm a mentalist: I can sense that you're proud of being spectacularly imbecile.

[@heimowitzfamily]

WONDERFUL!

[@dankswag7860]

Jew

[@RingJando]

@2:37 Roth shows his hand & that shell is now in play, as it will be throughout the one-ahead. Yes guys, Roth is . . . well he is a Legend . . . using a shell and a transparent classic palm - shucks

[@jaytpmc]

Yeah this was a pretty basic performance. Ppl just have nostalgia goggles cause hes one of the pioneers. Plus hes older so It may be harder for him to make it look as natual...but even if you look back at his old videos his technique is antiquated there are way more advanced coin magicians today than Roth ever was.

[@jumperstartful]

Meanwhile, back at the ranch, I still trying to do the French Drop!!

[@vinodfurtado]

it was not a french drop.. even i was fooled by the french drop but not a french drop.. he then pa*med it

[@vinodfurtado]

it was not a french drop.. even i was fooled by the french drop but not a french drop.. he then pa*med it

[@dantrixter]

This guy should take it up as a living ! Brilliant I know how it’s done and it’s still magic to me !

[@Sososhal]

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Roth In case you didn't know he is regarded as one of the greatest living coin magicians

[@Mangumagician]

Adiós MAESTRO!

[@ramonhamm3885]

He looks so much different than when he was in Van Halen. j/k

[@gy5938]

Is he half ahead of us?

[@sarahdonahue1461]

yes

[@jaytpmc]

What lecture is this from?

[@patrickbell3370]

He first revealed the method in his London Lecture over 30 years ago

[@alvianmahardika7812]

Living legend

[@swashbuckle9856]

Coin shell?

[@theyellowbrooktoad8196]

Hello my name is Johnathan and I have to say you perform that coin routine beautifully! So fluently and graceful. I watched this video several times in hopes to learn how it was done I deeply enjoyed it would like to perform it someday. I have read some coin books but I can't find an explanation. My suspension is that it was a gimmick coin involved. I was hoping maybe you could private message me or something on what gimmick coin was used. was it just a 50 Cent shell or a flipper coin gimmick. I'm sorry but I just would love to perform this trick and practice it till I'm as good as you at it.

[@JamieVegas]

It is a shell.

[@magicchrisbruce]

This is in several books including David Roths. There are also versions and Paul Gertners book and in The Classic Magic of Larry Jennings.

[@theyellowbrooktoad8196]

@@magicchrisbruce Thank you for responding to me. I didn't know he had passed. I wish I could have known him when he was alive.

[@magicchrisbruce]

@@theyellowbrooktoad8196 He changed the paradigm for coin magic. I can't give him higher praise than that.

[@rowdybme4584]

places 4 coins...makes it look like he takes one...closes hand quickly...makes the coin he fake took disappear...4 coins

[@catsnagz1523]

no

[@2fast4me9]

tf was that french drop at the end?!

[@maximemerlin3291]

It's not a french drop...

[@2fast4me9]

then what is it?

[@allmagicguy]

its a Spider Grip Vanish and is Roth's variation of a Slydini concept....though it can be seen referenced in one of Marlo's books back from the early 50's

[@TheRealCowlick]

Nico a "double faint", as he tends to call it.

[@dantrixter]

It’s a brilliant sleigh of hand move especially when he does it

[@bearculb7717]

Turtle.

[@Randommmmm204]

I call hacks!

[@phatp4206]

Magic revealed: The trick is that the fifth coin is smaller than the other four real ones. He can easily hide the fifth coin behind a real coin when displaying the coins and easily palm the fake small coin. The coins in the assistant hand are real, but the one he draws a cross with is the fake one that he palms and no longer shows his right palm after the trick.

[@alexgeiser5924]

Oh my God! You must be so brilliant! Like, genius level!

[@jaytpmc]

Lol. No.

[@maximemerlin3291]

Master...

Guys. I'm not sure, but I think he is cheating.

[@rageyt171]

No

[@anandhu5082]

what? no

[@yahjserdna2563]

nice coin shell technique

[@mmafightcoach]

CGI

[@kanthibasu]

there are five coins!

[@mpthegreat8046]

Basavaraj Kanthi yeah but you can't explain how he did it

[@kanthibasu]

He palms the fifth coin on and off. I mean the fifth coin keeps changing. Finally when he puts "four" coins in the other person's hand, there are actually five. He takes one and palms it again (look at his hands at last, you will know). Throughout there are five coins, he tricks us that there are only four.

[@mpthegreat8046]

Basavaraj Kanthi well than explain when he opens his hands they are three in one and one in the other

[@kanthibasu]

It's not one, there are two. Appearances are deceptive. See how quickly he closes his hand and talks to that guy.

[@mpthegreat8046]

Basavaraj Kanthi the first one you can clearly see they're three in his hand
