Introduction
You are at a bar or a party and the time comes when people are beginning to show their favorite pub tricks, bar tricks or party tricks. Here is one which I expect not may people have seen which makes it all the better to win drinks (or money, your preference). You set it up by putting 2 stacks of 2 coins on a clothed table, or a bar towel with a smaller coin between them and balancing a glass full of some fizzy drink on top of it. You then challenge people saying that you can get the coin from under the class quicker than anyone else but there are a couple of rules to follow. You can touch the straw, but you cant move or touch the glass until it is empty, also you cannot use anything else such as cutlery or another coin etc.. People will begin to think about this and someone will ask if they can drink the liquid through the straw, remove the glass and get the coin, this is acceptable but you will be able to do it much much quicker!
How it is done
Actually, drinking the liquid is just a ruse, you don't even need to touch anything apart from the table cloth. Just scratch at the table cloth and eventually after a couple of seconds the coin will edge from under the glass! For a more visual demonstration check out the video below!
