Pull your hand up towards your ear and aim with your elbow. If you learn to SNAP your arm in a bending position very quickly it increases the available power to your hand. You'll know when you're good when you can audibly hear the buzzing of them tumbling through the air. We used to do this in middle school and I could at one point stick us nickels into drywall. Quarters hit harder but are slow, pennies tumble too much and curv because they lack weight. Nickels are Chefs kiss.
Instant like for the recognition of the difference between precision and accuracy! My competition shooting coach made that a key point when I was in high school and I've never forgotten it
I feel like the strength of my whole legs, torso, shoulders and arms would turn a literal piece of metal into a much deadlier object than my middle finger tbh
Yeah, this seems pretty pathetic in terms of power compared to just throwing the coin lmao. Though, maybe with enough practice of technique you could learn to snap the coin at the end of a throw to combine the two?
@@Smoth48 but when you throw the coin you can use the tip of your finger to give it spin, drastically increasing its stability in air and its force. so still kinda pointless aside from looking cool i think
@@Smoth48I've done this with U.S. pennies since middle school, and the technique I use to get the most power/distance is kind of a combination of snapping and throwing. It's still mostly a snap, but with a short pivot at the elbow, and dropping of my shoulder.
question the thing you learned a year ago can you perform them just as good now? Do you have to sharpen your skills a bit or like learning how to bike?
"I'm a trained assassin" *smash gangter's bottle from across the room* "You're gonna pay for this." "..." "I mean, you gonna pay for this. It's 500 bucks."
"... got my eye in..." a uniquely British expression. I had this skill once but never used my powers for good. While the glasses in my cupboard terrorized the dishwasher, most of my family sported eye patches. LOL.
When I was a teen, we used to do this. We'd use dimes. Small as they are, you can get them moving so fast they'd _buzz_ as they moved through the air! Terrifying sound, as you'd hear it, and learn to recognize it, just within that window where no human reflex could save you from the pain!
the first and last time i played quarters i broke the shot glass with the quarter, its cut through the glass and landed inside my friends ban me from playing again. you can accuratly flick coins by pointing with your elbow then put your middle and thumb together and the coin pointing towards the elbow then snap your fingers. my friends and I got to the point we could hit targets at 30ft and have coins stick into walls and solid wood doors(usually training with a heavier coin to build the force and learn to get a flat spin.
Just wanted to say that your description of accuracy vs precision seemed backwards. Accuracy is the ability to hit the target, and precision is the ability to hit the same spot (or close) regardless if you hit the target or not. With that said, you hitting the square box on the sheet was a precision activity, while you hitting the glass is an accuracy activity. You had it backwards.
I never did the wine glass test, but I remember going through a similar evolution. Another satisfying trick to master is opening any non-twist bottle with a lighter or anything that isn't a bottle opener (caps can flicked like coins too- bonus!). People will bow to you when you open a bottle with lighter and then flick the cap into a container as if it was nothing! 😆
0:28 It seems you gave up on that. I'm guessing you found it didn't have enough mass to smash it from the other side of the room so you just did it from as close as you needed to be to actually smash it.
We would do this at lunch time in high-school with nickles. Things would launch across the room and we'd wait for a distant "owwwww" to be heard. Needless to say we were pretty dumb at that age cause a nickle could do some serious damage which we learned later in life after someone's forehead got nailed and split open. Pennies also work really well.
ive been doing this since i was little. i learned from my uncle flicking beer bottle caps at me. to get the most power and accuracy hold the coin right next to your ear and aim with your elbow. that way the point where the coin fires from is nearly the same as where your looking from. it woulda have been way easier that way
we did that with bottle caps and used it as a drinking game in university. the goal was to knock the cap off your opponents beer bottle (bottle already opened, cap upside down) from a distance of about 6 feet. i got real good at it and can still drive a mean cap.
You should also try with your elbow bent and pointed directly forward with your hand at about your ear. Then extend your elbow as you flick your your finger for extra power!
Was doing this 30+ years ago and the most power is gained when winding up like a cross body pitch. Holding coin as you were but instead of locking your wrist, shoulder and elbow you use them like a fulcrum and snap the coin at the end of your arm stroke. Was possible to put US copper penny partly into drywall and leave serious welts on an opponent. Think of airsoft but with coins in a confined space.
Oh I've been doing this for years. You can practice the motion with a large sleeve and use this as a disappearing coin magic trick. Not a great one, but eh. American Nickles are the best for high power shots with the coin snap.
hi tommo. "I Broke Glass with a Coin Snap" might be a better title and also fits the thumbnail well. its shorter and easier to grasp. the word "dangerously" might be cut off when on phone. when you explained that the final task is breaking the glass, you should have changed to a bit more tense music and also you're tone of voice (you had the explaining voice). "i dont think its possible" definitely needed more tension. and the first shot of the video should be somehow similar to the thumbnail, so people get an instant "satisfaction" moment, reward kinda. but i dunno i only have 28k subs heheheh infinite food hack part 3 pls
It's not useless it's a distraction device and could you imagine people smack quarters together to attract squirrels could you imagine using this as a survival tool I've weaponized coins before not only by putting an edge on one side but also super gluing exacto blades on them to make like throwing stars so I'd say that the skill is completely underrated. Although you could be the judge I'd say make yourself a little credit card coin launcher and compare it to the flick and you tell me which one's better.
I've been doing this with bottle caps since I was a broke little kid living in the sticks. Never once in my almost thirty years have I thought to use coins or to try to break shit with them, which is admittedly a pretty dumb oversight on my part. But then again I am from the south, so being a little dumb is pretty on brand.
Ok that payoff was epic, the coin landing in the glass too was the cherry on top!!
Poetic little coin it was!
Hahaha I get what u did there “that payoff was epic”
You could realistically shatter a glass with a coin just by throwing it regularly

You should see how Shaolin temples throw, since they can throw needles that can pierce through glass.
had my middle finger on the wrong part of the coin, and it ended up shooting behind me instead
25 years ago when I was in high school my friends and I could do this and one of them ended up breaking a glass basketball back board. It was amazing.
When you get use to doing this you can work on adding a whipping motion through your arm and really put some spin and heat on it.
we did that with bottle caps and used it as a drinking game in university.
the goal was to knock the cap off your opponents beer bottle (bottle already opened, cap upside down) from a distance of about 6 feet.
i got real good at it and can still drive a mean cap.

You should also try with your elbow bent and pointed directly forward with your hand at about your ear. Then extend your elbow as you flick your your finger for extra power!
Now try it with a twist off beer bottle cap. It’s like a mini frisbee, and with practice they will go 50 yards
