Signed Coin Through Bottle by Tobias Dostal

Created by: Tobias Dostal

Bottom's Up by Tobias Dostal is a versatile close-up magic utility set that allows performers to create organic and visual miracles with a borrowed bottle. Spectators witness a range of effects, including making a bottle vanish, causing a bottle cap to bend on its own, and most notably, penetrating a signed coin through the bottom of a bottle—all while objects can be examined after the effect. Designed for bar magic, table hopping, and stage performances, this toolkit includes precision-made gimmicks (Top Gimmick, Bottom Gimmick, and Self Bending Cap) that are durable, fast-resetting, and enhance the sense of impossibility. Buyers should note it comes with over an hour of video instruction covering more than ten routines, making it suitable for beginners to intermediate magicians seeking practical, high-impact magic.
