How to Perform the impossible knot magic trick

Think this trick is impossible? Well think again, as magician Ryan Oakes teaches the secret to Knot Impossible! You will need a length of clothesline rope about 2-3 feet long. Sometimes we use materials that require adult supervision... like scissors so make sure you have friends and family around whenever you do magic tricks. 1. Hold the rope in your right hand, between your thumb and pinky. It should lay across your palm and the ends should extend to the back of your hand.

2. Now, turn your hand downwards and grab the end held by your thumb with your first finger and second finger.

3. Pinch this bit of rope and then turn your hand all the way down. This should cause the rope to slide off the back of your hand.

4. Give it a shake to help it along and when the rope falls off it will end up tied in a knot!
