Step-by-step tutorial
Step 1
Gather the materials you need to do the disappearing coin trick.
Step 2
Place the empty glass on top of the coin. Observe the coin through the side of the glass. You will notice that you can clearly see the coin.
Step 3
Pour a little bit of water into the glass. While you are pouring, keep watching the coin from the side. Continue to add water until you can't see the coin. It vanished!
Final result!
Now, peek in from the top of the glass. There's the coin! Show off this cool light experiment to your friends and family, and explain to them how it works!
