Professor’s Nightmare by Paul Young, Bob Carver, Hen Fetsch

(c. 1957) (Submit Review) (Submit Update)

An all time classic rope effect by Paul Young + Bob Carver. It is basically the same as phase one of Quad Rope Lets by Hen Fetsch.

A detailed and interesting history of Professor’s Nightmare can be found here.

Effect: Performer shows three ropes. If you wish they may all be examined. One is short, the second is longer and the third is very long. Taking all the ends together the performer ‘stretches’ the ropes until they are all the same length and then displays them separately one at a time. Just as easily and magically the performer then causes all the ropes to return to their original unequal lengths.

Very easy to do, this is one of those rare Rope Tricks with nothing to ever replace.
