"It's a great effect and method and I've never seen anything like it before!"- Daryl"I can't believe you fooled me so hard that I'm putting down my cards to learn a rope trick!"- Jon Armstrong"Wow! Amazing! I've been working on the multiple cut rope plot for several years and that first performance with the rope tied around the wrists both completely fooled AND excited me!"- Bill Abbott"The cutting is really convincing, which is essential for a strong effect, and the restoration is as visual and impressive as Anderson's flash restoration in his newspaper tear."- Tom Stone"Congratulations to my good friend Chris Philpott on releasing what has to be one of the greatest rope tricks of all time!"- Steve Valentine
"A great trick! A great trick!"

From the mind behind The 100th Monkey comes a new, versatile and visually stunning method for rope magic! Picture this: you coil a rope, get a spectator to slice through all the strands – and then, like magic, you toss the pieces and they magically rejoin in mid-air! (No dodgy switches or covers here, folks!) The rope can be inspected both before and after the effect – how's that for trust?
The End-of-my-Rope Trick isn’t just a jaw-dropper on its own, it also serves as a brilliant finale for various rope routines. Chris – that clever chap – has managed to elevate classic rope tricks while keeping the original flavour intact. Seriously, this is a must-have!
Use it with everything from chain links to mouth coils, or mix and match for different effects. It's a killer finish for a ring-on-string routine: thread a string through a ring four times, then just pull it right off! There are variations with gimmicks and some that you can whip out on the spot – no fuss!
Now, let’s be clear: this trick isn't self-working, but it’s not rocket science either. It’s in the easy to medium range, depending on which variation tickles your fancy. Even if you’re not a sleight-of-hand wizard, a few hours of practice and you’ll be well on your way.
And whilst the DVD is packed with routines, there’s a treasure trove of potential for creating your own effects with this method. "What fun! That toss up and instant restore is a genuine magic moment. How the heck?..."

"Chris Philpott has come up with a dynamic escalation and finale for a cut and restored rope routine."
- David Regal
"Looks friggin' fantastic! It all looks VERY natural and very clean, which in my book, is exactly what I strive for in my shows. LOVE the way your mind works!"
- Chipper Lowell
"Chris doesn't release a lot of magic. But when he does release a trick, it's damn good. People might be able to conceive of a way a single cut could be mended...but six cuts at once? That's just impossible!"
- Rick Lax
"A very puzzling trick. Fooled me. Brilliant thinking."
- Doc Eason
