Man Wins Motorcycle From Claw Machines Using This Trick

Remember the frustration of losing quarters to those impossible claw machines at the arcade? One man has turned that childhood disappointment into viral success, proving these games aren't unbeatable after all.

Myooran, known online as "The Claw Master," discovered his hidden talent in December 2021 during a casual arcade visit with friends. While his buddies won two or three toys with $20 worth of tokens, he walked away with seven prizes and a request from the owner not to return so often.

His secret? A simple swing technique that changed everything. "Do not start on the toy," he explains in a video with over 5.5 million likes. "You start over the hole and swing in one direction. When it's facing the toy, that's when you drop it."

The breakthrough came from his determination to overcome childhood losses. Growing up, Myooran rarely won anything from arcade games, often leaving with just a tiny eraser as a consolation prize. That early discouragement fueled his adult mission to master the machines.

His skills have paid off beyond imagination. Myooran's most impressive win was a full-powered Kawasaki Ninja 650cc motorcycle, which he believes is the largest prize ever redeemed at an arcade. His most satisfying haul was 20 Pokémon plushie keychains, which he won by using the swing trick to bring down an entire bar holding the prizes.

Now he shares his knowledge freely on social media, posting tutorials that help others experience the same success. His videos feature creative techniques like "The Hurricane Technique," which picks up multiple toys at once.

Why This Inspires

Myooran's story resonates because it transforms a rigged system into something winnable. While claw machine manuals confirm owners can adjust grip strength to limit wins, his techniques work around these settings. He's proving that childhood disappointments don't have to define us and that persistence combined with strategy can overcome seemingly impossible odds.

His success has even extended beyond claw machines. Myooran mastered carnival midway games too, becoming skilled enough at the tub toss to earn a CBC interview. He's turned losing into a learning opportunity, healing something from his past while helping thousands of followers do the same.

The Claw Master's journey shows that sometimes the best response to a rigged game is simply getting better at playing it.
