Ok i know everyone knows what im talking about here. its where the coin runs across the top of your knuckles.
Now i dont know about you guys but everytime i see it done in the movies be it, pirates of the carribean or constantine, i always wanted to know how to do it.
well ive finally taught myself and now you guys can learn too!
What you need
You will need a 20c coin (australia) or half a doller coin (america) or anything of similar size.
and you’ll need your hand lol.
What to do
Firstly you will need to position the coin correctly in your hand so as the start is correct.
you need it between your thumb and forefinger about half way between the first digit.

now that your position is right all you have to do is push with your thumb so that it rests flat ontop of your forefinger.

then with your middle/rude finger you lift it up and make it bend.

allow the coin to fall so it rest still on your forefinger but also on your middle finger.

now all you have to do is let your middle finger down while still in contact with the coin, it should now flip and rest on your middle finger.

and now all you have to do is repeat the action for the next finger and so on.
when it gets to your pinkey hold it between your pinky and the finger thats next to your rude finger and do the process backwards tilting your hand that other way.

Oct 18, 2006 8:55 am - Cool,
i can do that allready. And if oyu want to do it smoother and faster then dont lift your knuckles so high. Have them so that they go up in height, the lowest on the left and then every one a bit higher as they get to the left. Then you can simply move all your knuckles down in a kind of reversed mexican wave movement. That way you get the copin from one end to the other in about less than half the time in that video. And it looks smoother and as if the coin moves by itself.
O t 19, 2006 12:09 pm - Very well written, highly detailed, with good grammar. Aslo included pics and a video. Five stars for an excellent egg, and above average effort.
Oct 24, 2006 7:35 am - Im starting to get the hang of this, can get it to go from left to right no prob going right to left is a little harder though =S il master this by the end of the day XD
Oct 28, 2006 6:06 pm - Nice Egg *5. How long did it take you from figuring out how to do this, to actually being able to do it as well as you do in the video?
