So I've been performing the Hundy500 for a while now and I have a larger stock made with $1 & $20's, I typically prefer to carry $1's & $5's because in a smaller enviornment amongst friends or just getting coffee or something, its perfect and packs the same punch. This is just a quick little demo I've made on that hendeling.

I have found that having the money in your wallet is a great way to start the effect since it is the most natural and let's face it, that's where everybody keeps their money. So Ive worked out a very clean way to do the effect. Though I sometimes change around how I change back the bills or pass them out to be examined as a convincer. Tell me what you think...

The demo handling is ok, but your get-readys could be a bit smoother.
The biggest issue I see is you're talking to the money and not the spectator/camera, and there's not much presentation, just a lot of counting the bills over and over.

I think he was mainly trying to demonstrate a handling technique (as the post title suggests) rather than make a "professional" performance video and I think he did a good job at getting his point across.

Don't mean to offend, but when will society at large learn to shoot video & photos with their device held horizontally rather than vertically?
Reshoot it that way and you will be absolutely amazed at the difference.

@VideoMan:
I did not intend this angle. My phone switched angles when I moved it to my cars visor. I'm sorry to I angered you to the point to make a post about it.

I agree inigmntoya. After I recorded and watched the video, I didn't like the get ready's either. They don't look like this when performing it live. It was a very awkward angle and I was not planning on recording at the time. I just wanted to get the idea on video as I had just come up with it right then. I am actually quite good at the get ready's, but out of the 3 videos I recorded, this one came out the cleanest for the show of the bills. Typically, I will use a buckle for the get ready.

Hi there,

I thought you did a great job. This is a great effect, and the kind of illusion I personally would love to learn. Thank you for sharing.
