Pull at Your Own Risk! — One of the Best Comedy Rope Routines!
(Effect)
The performer announces to the audience, "I'm going to show you an amazing rope trick!" and produces a rope — but it seems too short, so he stretches it out, looking for a bit more length.
He then tries to find the other end of the rope, but it has vanished somewhere inside his suit. As he keeps pulling, his left leg suddenly lifts off the ground! He slowly rolls up his left trouser leg, and surprisingly, the end of the rope is right there. He begins pulling the rope from the leg end, trying to feed it out through his suit — but it gets tangled halfway and won't come through. He gives it a mighty pull… and this time, his right leg shoots up into the air! Just like before, he rolls up his right trouser leg to reveal the rope end at his right foot. With a bewildered expression, he pulls it — and sure enough, it is connected to the rope at his left foot.
Just where on earth did this rope get tangled?
Frustrated and determined, the performer gives the rope one final, mighty yank from his right foot… and out pops his underwear from his trousers — the rope was tangled around his underwear all along!
This is the perfect comedy rope routine. Perform it between your other rope magic, after an elegant routine, or sandwiched between comedy effects for maximum impact. It also works brilliantly as a light-hearted interlude for an MC between performers.
- Rope length: 15 ft (4.6m)
- Please note that the underwear pattern may vary. With a little modification, you can substitute your own novelty underwear or any custom prop of your choice.
