Default An illusion?
I think not...

Edit: The salt shaker has me stumped, but the other two are easy to figure out....I caught him palming the coin a few times, and magnetic rings help a lot.

ok, are you meaning for the coin to stick to the ring....cause most coins dont react to magnets....of course it could be why he wanted that particular 500 yen coin instead of another coin.

Buuuut yeah that freakin salt one is ridiculous...I don't even begin to understand how you'd do that....also how would the coin being 'stuck' in the glass be due to hand tricks or whatever? I don't really know how you'd pull that off with his hand nowhere near it and it being 'inside' the glass

also wish I could fluently speak japanese like that.

EDIT: Speaking of japan, I just got in my bottle of sake today

haha...Nubius was feeling a little left out. I don't know...I find it rather intriguing.

BTW, Tatiana has to be my favorite female anime character of all time.

No magicians or people who have practiced said art as a hobby here? Hmm...well, if there is anyone who does, please don't expose (ruin) the magic...

Anyhow, good video.
