Did everybody catch that article a couple of weeks ago in the New Yorker about the virtuoso pickpocket, Apollo Robbins?
In the video above (I know, it’s flash, terribly sorry) he demonstrates some of his methods on Adam Green, who wrote the article. What’s especially amazing to me is that even after he’s revealed his “secrets”, the routines appear, if anything, more impressive and just as impossible, because of the amount of technique involved. We should all be so lucky.
