Always a good ice-breaker in a bar. Even better if you borrow the note.

That trick's been doing the rounds in the US recently on the $10 bills

That only works for the older 10,000 yen bills.
Those old fukuzawa yukichis are becoming pretty rare.

Can anybody explain how you do that? :lol:

It's photoshopped :roll:

I can make the 10,000 yen bill disappear instantly but it involves going out to Shinjuku Kabukicho :lol:

That's not photoshopped. Just paper folding. Not that I could do it.

Maybe someone can do this

Here's one example:

Some of them require more than one banknote. Here are a few more examples:
