Magician Stuart Edge helps the homeless by turning $1 into $100
YouTube magician and do-gooder Stuart Edge is "tricking" the homeless with incredible kindness.
He recently took to the streets of Provo and Orem, Utah, and performed his generous $1-into-$100 trick for panhandlers.
"Ever since getting into magic, I wanted to learn some cool money tricks. I thought it would be cool do a video about it, but I didn't know how I would go about that. I tried a bunch of different tricks, and this one, just felt right. I was nervous because every time I did the trick, it would cost me $100. I did the trick 10 times! Although I knew it was for a good cause, I still wanted to make sure it worked. The people we had in the video were all very grateful for what we gave them. We made sure to talk to them a little beforehand and make sure they really needed it and would be able to use it for good things," Edge wrote on YouTube.
