YOUTUBE REVIEW: QUARTER TRICKS (3.5 STARS)


Quarter Tricks (total running time 2:18 minutes)

And you thought quarters was just for drinking. These guys have redefined what can be done with these tiny discs of zinc alloy. The video begins with the easy stuff. Multiple shots into shot glasses of different sizes. Then we see the E ticket tricks. Cross room shots. Going in two glasses at once. All-in-all, an incredible non-CG feast for the eyes. My only complaint (and this is a real nitpick), the lack of set up and back-story on the stunts. Kinda wanted to hear a bit about how many takes it took them to perfect the tricks. Maybe something about their technique or if there were any tricks they flat out couldn’t do. Again, pretty minor criticism about a video of major quarter feats. Give it a watch.
