Baffling Bucks Secret
Jaw Droppers • 4m 7s
What you will need: two dollar bills, rubber cement liquid or clear glue, talcum powder, and scissors. You can use different types of dollar bills, but they must match each other. Example: Two $5 Bills or two $1 bills.
Pro Tips: Practice this effect using construction paper or colored notecards first so you’re not actually cutting up dollar bills while you practice. Make sure to use newly printed dollar bills without any folds or creases. Also note in the video that the center of a $1 bill is George Washington’s eye. Cut as closely to that center line as possible. Be careful to spread your fingers apart so the scissor has enough space to safely cut through the bills. After cutting, when you fold the bills open, don’t fan them around. Let them slowly hinge open, held together by the clear glue you applied earlier.
Money magic is a very popular topic. You can perform it anywhere with items that are already in your pockets. Everyone can relate to dollar bills and coins. So, they will be surprised when they see all the ways you can transform them.
