Introduction by Can Man:
I started carving Can Man in 1994. One day I looked at a can and wondered what could be sculpted out of it. I had seen airplanes molded from cans and thought the soda logos made a very colorful sculpture. However, I wanted to think outside of the box, or can in this case. My first attempt was to cut out a piece from the can that was already in the shape I wanted to see. However, the first attempt came out looking like a very awkward stick figure. In fact, people that saw it had to be told what they were looking at. As I thought about my first attempt, I realized I could cut out a stick figure, keep it attached to the can, and then mold the figure like a child's bendy figure toy. Eureka - Can Man was born.

He closes the wallet, and opens it again revealing it is just an ordinary wallet with coins and credit cards and currency bills inside.
You may pull out the wallet from your own pocket, using the gag as an introduction to a coin or bill trick you are going to perform, following up with the coins or bill removed from the wallet. Or you may pretend to find the wallet (dropped by some one in the audience) and opening it to discover the owner!
In effect the performer places a frame with a wooden box over his assistant's head. The head is then clamped into the box and the box is turned slowly, twisting the head with it. It is turned right around and then twisted back again in the opposite direction to unscrew the head.
Finally everything is removed and displayed freely, and the assistant is completely unharmed.
