This is the sort of interesting and entertaining twist on Professor's Nightmare which I find worthwhile. I've seen similar variations of the same performed by others and would like to learn how to do the technique required for such maneuvers which go beyond simply showing three different sized ropes become a single length then reverting to their original standard. Could we, perhaps, break down and discuss what is being done here as an instructive example in better understanding the nuances of such presentations?

Tim...i will do a search myself. But i think this routine is called the professors revenge....i will also take my laptop to my local magic shop just in case i cant find this on my own.. And check with my local guru..
This is a really nice routine, the hardest move to duplicate in the connected rope to make it look smooth....i did like his initial move of setting up the short and long rope at the very first.. I almost didnt catch it..ok.. I am going back to watch it a few more times...later, oh.........thanks for finding this and sharing...

I think a couple of those moves can also be found in a rope DVD entitled "Fiber Optic" There is so much that can be done with a couple of pieces of rope.

Thanks Tim, tim, deborah, bottom, Bessy, Virginia, Tiny, Mr Vaudville, Mister Mr., etc...

Look for videos by Tabary (sp?) These moves are used and explained by him. he also shows lots of other moves you could use.
