The End Of My Rope Trick by Chris Philpott
“I can’t believe you fooled me so hard that I’m putting down my cards to learn a rope trick!” – Jon Armstrong
“Wow! Amazing! I’ve been working on the multiple cut rope plot for several years, and that first performance with the rope tied around the wrists completely fooled AND excited me!” – Bill Abbott
“The cutting is incredibly convincing, which is essential for a strong effect, and the restoration is as visual and impressive as Anderson’s flash restoration in his newspaper tear.” – Tom Stone
“Congratulations to my good friend Chris Philpott on releasing what has to be one of the greatest rope tricks of all time!” – Steve Valentine
Introducing a groundbreaking method for rope magic from the creator of The 100th Monkey! The magician coils a rope and allows a spectator to cut through all the strands. Then, with a flourish, the pieces magically join back together in mid-air! The rope remains in full view and can be examined before and after the performance.
The End-of-my-Rope Trick stands out as a remarkable solo performance but also serves as an exceptional finale for various rope routines. Chris, an award-winning screenwriter, has elevated classic rope tricks while maintaining their core essence. This is truly a game-changer!
This versatile trick can be performed with a range of materials, from chain links to mouth coils, and can create a variety of effects. It makes an ideal conclusion for a ring-on-string routine, allowing you to thread a string through a ring multiple times and then effortlessly pull it off! It also functions as a rope penetration, enabling you to thread a coiled rope over your arm or leg and pull it right through!
The End-of-my-Rope Trick is not self-working, but it is accessible. Depending on the variation you choose, it falls within the easy to medium difficulty range. Even those with minimal sleight-of-hand experience can master some variations with just a few hours of practice.
Along with numerous routines included on the DVD, there is immense potential for creating new effects using this innovative method.
