wrong movie

yeah, pan-kun is a ridiculously popular monkey. I demand a pankun tag!!

That was my general thinking through this. The sleight of hand stuff is fun and games, but the last trick is what got me concerned.

Okay, fine, the chimp doesn't know where that coin went. But when you're going Penn and Teller with it, I can see the ape having a really bad reaction.

I agree. According to what I read, chimpanzees are between three to five times as strong as an average man. Is it really a good idea to upset Pan-kun?

Yes, but knowledge is true power. And by the look of these guys, I'd say they're Kung fu masters. The slanty eyes give it away. KNOWLEDGE!

After all this trauma, he'll probably run straight to Caesar, begging to join their ape revolution.

If you wish to astound or impress primates that are capable of mauling or killing you, the best way to do it is by demonstrating what appear to be god-like powers, and your willingness to show both fury and mercy.
