Pop Haydn performs his Four Ring Routine with Hannah in the Parlor of Prestidigitation at the world-famous Magic Castle in Hollywood. July 10, 2016. www.pophaydn.com www.popsmagic.com
Pop is actually demonstrating several slights of hand at once. If you know how the usual set of four "separate" rings are packaged, watch carefully as he first presents them to the audience member. No one suspects a thing. It looks like 4 separate rings. Brilliant.
Actually, She isn't a plant. You can find him performing the same trick with different volunteers at the Magic Castle and one is just as amazing as the other. Actually the most amazing is just how Pop handles each each guest with perfection.... What a guy:-) !
Couldn't figure out the last part when he separated the rings to 1,2,3,4 but now I see it. I love magic where someone makes something look so foolish and easy but it's actually EXTREMELY difficult.
As always, great stuff, Whit. Any chance you might post the four ring routine you put out on video tape? The superb unlink you perform at 6'15" here was handled slightly differently. My thanks for considering. Cheers.
I'm not sure if your up for helping aspiring magicians. But on your last separation of the rings when you take the fourth ring off, and then go for the 3rd do you take 3&2 off and put 4 back on? Please feel free to delete this comment if you feel I said to much. If this isn't how it's done smooth because it really got me aha that's the beauty of magic I suppose!!!!
If you look twice (and you know how the trick works) you can work out he he did it. It's a bit like pushing a coin through a bit of latex: if it's impossible, then you can rule it out. I'm not bad at this trick but the sleight at the end was so smooth (and I wasn't expecting it) I still can't see it: I just know it's the only way it can be done. Kudos.
