The first time I tried the French Drop was 50-something years ago... and this is the nicest explanation I've seen. The 'impression' bit is a great bit of misdirection.. and I'd never heard of the 'Ramsay Subtlety'... A great lil' video... :)
I love a vanish & reproduction, but this one includes a pass that makes this "steal & reveal" a real mystery to the viewer. Coin sleights rock... Right on!
Magicians are so weird. They’re all like: look at this coin, it’s gone, oh look I had it the whole time but somewhere you couldn’t see it. Like we know bro, we know. Haha
Missed the opportunity to show the other hand empty too when you're showing the marking on the hand when coin is already dropped in the marked hand.. that would be a great convincing move I feel.. Powerful illusion none the less 💫
For men, when she shows her hand palm down, what I do is a general gesture like John trayvolta with a towel, this also provides the illusion that they saw your empty hand, but when men hold the coin like she does it tends to give it away a bit
