Professor's Nightmare Trick
The Professor’s Nightmare is a classic of magic that has certainly stood the test of time. Why? Because it is one of the most simple and yet most impressive tricks known.The magician displays three pieces of rope and hands them out for examination. The ropes are very clearly unequal with the first being very short, the second is a bit longer and the last is very long. With a ‘magical gesture’ the magician visually stretches the ropes until they are all the same length! The equal ropes are clearly displayed but in a blink of an eye they return to their original lengths and the magician takes a bow.
