Teleportation of a coin92rank/position
It’s a coin teleportation effect where the coin you were holding in each hand appears to move to one hand right before the spectator’s eyes.
You hold one coin in your right hand and one in your left, cross your hands, and to let them confirm which hand holds which coin, you briefly drop them and pick them up again.
At that moment, when you open one hand, the coin in that hand is securely clipped at the base of the thumb, and you use that hand to pick up the coin dropped from the other hand.
It’s simple, so with a little practice you can do it!
Card magic93rank/position
When it comes to classic party tricks that are handy to have up your sleeve anytime, anywhere, you can’t go wrong with card magic.
All you need is a deck of cards.
Pick tricks from the many passed down by masters to match your skill level and give them a try! There are not only techniques that require practice, but also simple self-working tricks that anyone can do just by following the steps.
High & Low94rank/position
Let me introduce a card game called High & Low.
Use a standard 52-card deck, excluding the jokers.
Deal the cards evenly to two players to form their personal draw piles.
One player becomes the dealer and flips the top card of their pile face up in the center.
The other player then places one card face down in the center and declares whether their card will be higher or lower than the dealer’s card.
Aces are the lowest and Kings are the highest.
If the declaration is correct, the player takes both cards as their won cards.
Players take turns being the dealer and repeating the declarations; the player with the most won cards at the end wins.
If the declaration is wrong, or if the two cards have the same rank so neither higher nor lower can be decided, set those cards aside as discards.
beatbox95rank/position
Beatboxing uses the voice, lips, tongue, and more to recreate instrument sounds.
Because you can create rhythm and melody all by yourself, it’s sure to liven up year-end and New Year parties.
Combining drum sounds like the bass drum and hi-hat adds a sense of realism.
The appeal is that, with practice, you can express everything from simple rhythms to complex patterns.
If you have a microphone, the sound will carry even more, instantly brightening the atmosphere.
The key is to start with a slow rhythm and gradually pick up the tempo.
Show the results of your regular practice and energize the venue with music full of originality.
Freestyle Football96rank/position
Freestyle football is an acrobatic sport based on soccer juggling.
Performing to music enhances its appeal and captivates audiences.
It’s especially recommended for soccer players and those good at athletics; the dazzling ball tricks are sure to draw attention.
Because it uses a familiar item—the soccer ball—preparation is simple.
Why not try a new performance that elevates the atmosphere of any venue?
Limbo dance97rank/position
Limbo dance originated on the island of Trinidad in the West Indies.
It’s a simple dance in which you pass under a horizontally held bar, yet it’s enjoyed all over the world.
As you go under the bar, you lean your upper body backward.
The lower the bar gets, the harder it is to keep your balance, and many people end up falling backward.
The great thing about this dance is that it’s a hit whether you succeed or fail.
For those who aren’t very flexible, it can be tough—you might bow out early and get the crowd going right from the start.
Double-Double Fight Game98rank/position
CANDY TUNE’s song “Double Double FIGHT!” was the smash hit of 2025.
It felt like there wasn’t a single day we didn’t hear it on social media, on TV, or out in the streets.
Tons of people probably performed it at school festivals and karaoke, too.
This game, which uses the melody of that track, is maximum fun! All you do is sing the shown illustration to the tune of “Double Double FIGHT!”, but it’s trickier—and more fun—than you’d think.
You’ll probably have fun from the moment you start preparing the prompts.
Be sure to make the questions include illustrations!
