Muscle Pass Vanish
How about trying the Muscle Pass Vanish, a magic trick that’s been trending on magic shows and social media? The Muscle Pass Vanish uses a technique called the muscle pass—where you launch a coin from your palm—to make the coin disappear.
Think of it as pinching the coin between the base of your thumb and your palm.
It’s fairly difficult, but once you get used to it, you’ll be able to launch the coin into your other hand or even into your chest pocket.
The launch speed itself is important, so keep practicing.
Once you master it, you can likely apply it to other magic routines as well.
The Disappearance and Reappearance of the Ring
This is a magic trick where a ring that was supposedly on your finger disappears, and when you wave your hand, the ring appears on a different finger.
The key is controlling the ring within your hand—rotating it with your thumb, palming it inside the hand, and moving it at angles that aren’t visible from the front.
If your gaze focuses on your hand, it gives away that you’re doing something, so practice to rely as much as possible on your sense of touch.
As a vanish display, clearly showing the back of your hand makes it look like the ring truly disappeared, which I highly recommend.

Vanishing Rubber Band Magic
It’s a magic trick where a rubber band caught on your hand vanishes in an instant and reappears when you open your hand.
The key is how you hook the rubber band on the inside of your hand: you grip it, stretch it toward the pinky side, and hook it onto your thumb.
Then, by applying pressure with your pinky, the rubber band shifts toward the thumb, making it look like it has disappeared.
It disappears from the back of the hand, but the band remains hooked on each fingertip, so when you open your hand quickly, it snaps back into place and can appear to have reappeared.
A stack of playing cards disappears
It’s a magic trick where you put the deck back into its box, place it into a wooden box, give it a light shake, and then the entire box of cards seems to vanish.
In reality, what looked like the deck’s box is just an empty dummy, designed to show a hollow interior that’s the same color as the wooden box, creating the illusion that the box has disappeared.
To make it look like a real deck box, the surface uses genuine parts, and it also hides a double-layer structure that allows a single card to be returned inside.
Be mindful of the angles—those that make it look like a genuine card box and those that make it appear to have vanished—as you perform the routine.
The technique where a card you supposedly placed disappears: “Snap Deal.”
A mysterious magic trick where the cards seem to be dealt right in front of you yet vanish, and in the end every card you had disappears.
This is a technique called the “Snap Deal,” a sleight that can be learned with tips and practice.
It looks like the right hand is dealing the cards, but in reality the cards are being hidden in the right hand and kept out of sight depending on the angle.
Because you hear the snap of the card before it’s concealed, it convincingly appears as though the card was actually dealt, which heightens the sense of mystery.
Then, by pulling the hand back and letting the hidden cards drop in front of you, the cards seem to vanish in an instant—such is the trick.
In conclusion
Among magic tricks, we showcased a series of vanishing tricks that make a big impact when performed.
When it comes to vanishing magic, coin magic is the classic choice, but there were also tricks you can easily perform using everyday items around you! Some require a bit of practice, but definitely give them a try!
