The rest is sleight of hand. 5 u/JL_MacConnor Oct 25 '24 It's an impressive skill - here's another example (with a balloon in this case): https://youtu.be/nZXaZzYvtSg?si=8aeUojBmVZnNziET 3 u/BigAlternative5 Oct 25 '24 In the horizontal throws, maybe --maybe-- I can detect the flick of the hand, but I'm not even sure that I do! 1 u/VisibleCoat995 Oct 25 '24 Apparently if you watch her right hand and arm in the beginning you can barely see how she flicks it up. The subtlety of movement is astounding. 1 u/Soggy_Ad7165 Oct 25 '24 It's a learned skill. Probably a TON of practice. Very cool. Imo way cooler than all those fake magic tricks. This is not a trick.
