I knew this trick when I was a kid. Al those years later I had 2 rubber bands, but I couldn't remember anymore how to perform this. Thanks to remind me.
Every year or so I like to watch (or read) someone explaining this trick so I can remind myself that I am apparently incapable of following instructions for doing magic tricks. If I really want to feel completely useless I look at those videos explaining how to do the classic pass.
The key to the pass is _don’t_ try to do it fast. Make speed part of your practice for sure but once you have the packets passing each other with ease you’ll do better focusing on angles and misdirection for performance. Good luck!
I'm playing this at .25 speed. I still don't see how it works. Topologically, we have two linked rings (left-fingers and band-1; right-fingers and band-2), they may not pass through each other, one anchor point (thumb) remains intact, and the other simply transfers to another finger on a contiguous part of the ring.
You have truly mastered this. Awesome... It seems that you can't do this in a crowded bar with a bunch of people all around you since someone will be seeing this from an angle where they can see the trickery going on in your palm and you are not hiding the finger switch
I'm gonna tell my grandchildren later in my life ... "Kid, i met an awesome man when i was young, his name is Jester Jim, and i'll show you what he taught me" ... *hold my beer*
Thanks Jim. The first time I see this trick is when David Copperfield done it years ago. Of all his magic, the rubber band is the one that I want to know how he done it - but I can't figure out, until now.
great. It took me over an hour until it worked without rubber bands flying around the room. I bought a kilo-pack too. thanks for the explanation with not pushing them tigether once they are separated - I always did that, and it actually looked stupid!
Excellent explanation. I´ve loved this trick for years. I first saw it performed by Paul Daniels and thought it had to be the finest impromptu trick ever.
this trick seems like it would still look better POV rather than a spectator. could u post a vid of a spectators view so we can see how it would appear to an audience, but still up close like this plz
HI,,,CN U PLZ TELL ME HOW MANY TIME I NEED TO PRACTIS IT??I HAV LEARNED DIS TRCIK FROM VIDEO BUT NOT GAINED SPEED AS U SHOW "HORRBLIE MODE" OF DT TRCIK,,PLZ GUIDE ME......I M RIGHT HANDED
Thank You so much for this video, I looked all over the internet and still couldn't understand it, then you popped up and now I can finally impress my friends :)
This illusion was the first time I fell in love with close-up magic. Years and years ago, David Copperfield performed this for Johnny Carson on the tonight show. Years after seeing it, I mentioned it to a Magic store guy in Branson, Missouri and he sold me a VHS tape full of Dan Harlan rubber band magic!
I can't do it. I can't so what he's doing and that was after slowing the video down to quarter the speed. It's not a wind up, is it ? It's also hard enough getting them on ya hands, let alone getting the buggers apart.
No professional or intermidiate (hobbiest magician) pushes it too hard 😂. This is among one of the oldest rubber band magic effects along with jumping bands. But like you it's deft a very visual and impossible effect. if your going to perform this deft practice practice practice! You want to be able to do the move flawlessly before showing anyone because the large action if pulling it back covers the small action of manipulating the band around your fingers but it you haven't practiced or are just not proficient at it then the spectator will see your finger switch. Smooth and fast and like he said come back and wait a few beats rubbing it together gently the one rubber band casts a shadow the makes it look like it's passing through right at the moment you seperate. I love watching other people's handlings of effects I always hope for something new or original in the handling or method but either way awesome job man. Also deft use the same color bands there is a rubber band made specifically for magic it's got a nice almost super soft feel and a great stretch , but for this effect you want to use tgese and make sure they are the same a slight variation in color or size will show the rubber band in the outside no matter how good your acting abilities are , thanks again! I Subbed.
Carly Shupe Yes, they do! You have to buy them from staples as specified in the video. Ive tried Walmart, and multiple other crafts & art stores to find the right rubber bands. Staples is BY FAR are the best rubber bands to use. :)

Damn could not describe it better
I can't do anything

took me 5 minutes to get the rubber bands in starting position...
it's quite easy

Same😂😂😂
Me too :))
I love how he spent quite a bit of effort mocking those who ask how the trick's done.

This guy went to my Elementary School years ago. I'm only just finding his TH-cam NOW accidentally.

Best explanation yet.
Nice explanation. It is definitely a skill to make it look good!
My right ear really enjoyed this thank you
I've been tricked and quite possible, Banboozeld😂😂
Thanks so much. Now I can sleep nights again, instead of laying awake, wondering how it was done...the band is definitely quicker than the eye.
2:30-2:35 that's what she said

This is the exact same video from 6 years ago. When I was 10. Holy shit I remember being obsessed with magic
THIS MAN NEEDS 1 BILLION SUBSCRIBERS THAN PEWDIEPIE
Thank You so much for this video, I looked all over the internet and still couldn't understand it, then you popped up and now I can finally impress my friends :)
Slydini's Linking Rubber Band Mystery
I tried to do it over and over again but I couldn't do it why
I'm supposed to be writing a paper, why am I watching this and how did I get here?
Magician never reveals her magic tricks

Is this even legal?

Wow you can do it pretty quick
Great, now I have to go out and buy rubber bands. Apparently I don't have any.
Had to watch a few times, and break a few bands, flick some at my cat, but i can finally do it.
How on earth do you drop that middle finger so seamlessly. Even when I have no tension it makes such a jarring move when I lose that middle finger.
Do you need big hamds cuz i cant do it 😂
you sounded like badger from breaking bad in that intro
I got everything excpet for the part when you bring it back all together... please help me
I can't believe I never was able to figure this trick out....
my physics teacher did this trick..back in the 90s
I can't do it. I can't so what he's doing and that was after slowing the video down to quarter the speed. It's not a wind up, is it ?
It's also hard enough getting them on ya hands, let alone getting the buggers apart.
YA SAME
It's called an index finger.
i cant get how you lock them together right at the beginning . You do it to fast to catch.
Of course he does, we must not make things too easy...
thanks man for telling that trick all my friends in my school rage quit in that trick
It’s 1:20am and I’m high. Why am I watching this.
Someone else did this but I didn’t understand I feel like u explain better

okay... i figured out how to do it. Now,
How do you put it back the same way? that would be impressive.
At the end when he says shato or something the 2 bands are turned unto 1 band
uhh no
SilverZeppelin look at 3:33
SilverZeppelin it could be seperate or it is but it does look very much like they are 1 band
Hi
TeamMinecraft hola
I can do the trick, but I"m having trouble with the rubber band making too much noise during the move. It makes it pretty fishy. Any tips?

"RUGGGH, WAT DID U DO"
Favorite rubber band trick
Thanks for giving away the secret! All that time invested in practicing this now gone down the drain. I'm sure all magicians thank you for this
The Best crazy mans ha…. ff toturial 👍
how old this guy 2019
I am not sure
DONE IT !! It's still hard to do it smoothly as JJ says, it needs practice, especially as my mates shw no mercy with my tricks.
I now can do this trick and it's awesome
My childhood 😢
I’m trying to figure out how to get the rubber band behind the other
Thank you for teaching me this magic trick
Watch at x0.25 speed from 1:25, much easier to understand what’s happening.
You went to my school once and I didn't even know it was you when I clicked onto the video hahah
i remember watching this year's ago when i was little and i was frustrated cs i couldn't understand the video properly
what scorcery is this!?
Does it matter what bands?
Carly Shupe Yes, they do! You have to buy them from staples as specified in the video. Ive tried Walmart, and multiple other crafts & art stores to find the right rubber bands. Staples is BY FAR are the best rubber bands to use. :)
Lmao my fingers are smooth asf I can't excute the fooling correctly.
my hands smell like rubberbands now
O, hello Mr. Maurer.
"Rubbing rubbing rubbing rubbing and then just pull through" rofl
the first video i just thought you were satan.
Awesome. It took me a couple of times to get it. But once I realized what was going I finally got it down. Soo cool.
I saw someone do this with quarks
Thanks a lot
i end up flicking the band half way across the room
I know the quick it’s really neat
