It’s hard to believe that NASA is using the same space helmets they pretty much used for the Apollo missions. However now it seems they could be close to an upgrade and space walkers could be reading text off of the inside of their helmet.

Vancouver-based Recon Instruments, maker of GPS-enabled ski goggles with in-goggle displays tucked in the peripheral, is sending its technology to NASA for potential inclusion in the next generation of spacesuit helmets in which mission critical information and checklists could appear right before astronauts eyes. NASA’s spacesuit designers have been toying with the idea of an in-helmet displays for a while now, and considering that spacewalking astronauts currently rely on paper checklists taped to their arms, such a display represents a pretty big technological leap forward.

you're an idiot. although your physics knowledge is fundamentally correct, you cannot displace solid objects within the time frame shown without SUBSTANTIAL change. idiot. you're just, ug. i can't go on.
Around 1 min and 06 sec, with the help of his magnatized ring he picks up the coin ontop of the glass, and drops the one under the glass on his hand.
Around 1 min and 08 sec watch his fingers of his right hand. He's making sure he holds on to the coin in his hand. Again putting focus on the one below the glass, while he's getting rid of the coin in the other hand.
He's holding it with all except his index finger.
As for Criss Angel, alot of the people the he has 'never met before' are actually assistants or whatnot to help him with the trick
