DISCLAIMER. We do not reveal magic tricks on our channel, although we acknowledge the impact and all the benefits (views and popularity which usually result in good sales of branded goods) that come with it. Unlike many other channels that blew up in the recent years, we believe that teaching something that is being kept secret within the community and exposing someone else's work without permission is going against our integrity and magicians' ethics.

With that being said, the Muscle Pass is a classic move that was invented in 1800s and published for the first time by Arthur Buckley in his book "Principles and Deceptions". It is not a magic trick, however, it can be used in different routines. There is no secret or hidden sleights involved in executing the Muscle Pass, so in our eyes it is a coin flourish and this is exactly the way we convey and teach it for the purposes covered in this video.
