I'm pretty sure P&T know how it's done. They just say that as a favor to Mac King to help sell his show since they're good friends. The trick isn't that hard to figure out. It's just fun to watch because of his showmanship.

Mac leaves a smile on my face every time I watch him perform.

Absolutely superb sleight of hand. If you google around you can find out how he does it, but that takes nothing away from his magnificent talent to be ABLE to fool us.

He does this better than anyone else!!!!

I watched Mac King's Comedy Magic Show back in 2010 at age 10. When I was at his show, he actually invited me on stage to be Opie Taylor from the Andy Griffith Show for one of his magic tricks! He had me check out this tent and make sure there were no trap doors or compartments, then he showed me how he used a fishing pole. All of a sudden, this guy in a bear costume jumped out of the tent without warning and roared at me, scaring me to death. His show was so funny. I'll remember it for the rest of my life. Mac King is one of the best magicians ever.

I need those scissors though.

I've seen Mac King live, twice, and it's even better than it looks in this video. And it's a third of the price of most Vegas shows. Can't miss this one folks!

Watching at 1/4 speed, I've figured everything out, but he's so smooth that even though I know the moves he's doing I can't actually see him doing most of them at full speed - I just know they're there. Incredible sleight of hand artist.

MASTERFUL! Thanks Mac! I can’t begin to count the hours that went into of the preparation and study on this one - whew!!

Very knotty indeed. He was stringing me along. How did I get roped into this? That's enough.

knotty boy!

I know every move and trick he does and I am so impressed with this routine. There is so much going on. Well done.

Yeah the color of the handle of the scissors blend in with the rope, clever.

An incredible trick and an endearing performer.

Mac is one of the best in the world, but by far the best comedy magician in the world 🌎

Very entertaining comedy magic. I've had the pleasure of attending the show twice. His "cloak of invisibility" routine is hilarious.

This is a phenomenal routine. I love Mac King.

Beautifully done

Good tricks never get old. Thanks.

very very nice and fluent performance. GREAT!

The best I can tell is this - He uses the original rope all the way through to the very end, until he says he's going to cut it to pieces. He pulls out the scissors and quickly moves a new rope already covered in knots from one hand to the other and starts cutting to pieces the original rope. Notice how stuffed of knots his hand is, even after letting loose the rope. It's because he's still got the original rope in it. Even when he pulls the knots off, there are WAY more in the first handful than the second handful. Plus you can see it the final rope looks bent out of shape like it was sitting balled up for a while. I had to watch this SEEEEVERAL times, but I think that's gotta be it. He is a master of the craft, without a doubt.

mind blown

My family and I seen him in LV and we totally LOVED his performance. He was amazing! Check him out if you ever get the opportunity.

Love this!

awesome piece of magic there! :D

OMG, I love your cut and restored rope routine, I can follow you up until the end when you were cutting the rope into multiple small pieces. I am completely lost at that point.

This is amazing

Easily the best show I saw in Las Vegas.

Bravo!

He's knot telling us everything!

Great packaging of the rope tricks! Is the VEGASSEVEN name inspired from the artists Group of Seven?

Awesome trick

Still the best trick of all time

Omg he is awesome

my brain. I've watched so much Fool Us and videos explaining magic tricks and my mind still cannot understand where or how he inserts things.

that is brilliant

I saw him do this trick in front of me this past 4th of July in Vegas. I was switching my positions in the theater….Still no idea… I even took a piece of rope as a momento!

What in t he world!? you totally fooled me. I reacted to this. Thanks!

Great trick.

brilliant

Mac absolutely terrifies Teller when he pulls out a piece of rope.

Wow!

UN PHÉNOMÈNE

I was just in utter confusion 😂😂

he is great at palming!

I found parts of this in the 5th book of Tar Bell.. now all I need is 30 years and I can perform it :D

someone please. you have to teach me that. I freakin beg. I need to know how the hell t=he does it. I know the regular rope trick but this was fantastic

I think he starts with 2 extra pieces which he cuts and cuts till the part of the disappearing knot (look at his hands, they are always hiding the "union") The go around part looks like he is turning the rope but is standing still and for the final part he reaches for his pocket for a new rope. Amazingly well executed, it seems that the beginning is the hardest part.

dam wtf thats some crazy magic

Wooooow😮

I bought the Fiber Optics rope trick by Richard Sanders.....and some of that routine is in this (or visa versa), and I could recognize it, although Mac King is very quick and skilled at it....So, I can follow him up to a point, but that last bit where he cuts the rope and restores it with all the pop knots....Wow! Spectacular. That's where he loses me....He probably made a substitution there, but....I'll be damned if I can spot it...I would LOVE to know how to do this.

@cydoniaquest

5 жыл бұрын

Ok, I had to replay it back a couple times but I see now where he makes the substitution of the prepared rope for the ending...It's when he reaches into his pocket to get the scissors...He pulls out a ball of rope which he has palmed and quickly puts it into his left hand with his scissors hand, in the same motion he goes to cut the rope...Just amazing skill.....

@cydoniaquest

5 жыл бұрын

My next question was, how does he ditch all the pieces that he really does cut up at the end? Well......he throws them at the camera at the same time he removes all those knots from the prepared rope...Very clever....Ends clean...nobody will count the actual pieces on the ground.

@Smoke DeGrasse Tyson Fiber Optics is an awesome trick...I do that at family gatherings and it's just instant entertainment. It's amazing what you can do with three pieces of rope...I like the Mac King version though where you are actually cutting it....It's more organic that way.....Although the stretching illusion is more impressive with three pieces. He's actually using a small piece and a large piece that he does cut from one piece of rope which requires really sharp scissors which is how he cut his thumb off in front of a live audience one time.......Sometimes the old classics are the best. Pop Hadyn has a great version of that as well that he's done for years.

He get the new rope when he put the scissor in his pocket.

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There is some kind of handoff at 1:22 when he reaches in his pockets for scissors and hands off more rope or something to his other hand. But it still does not explain much.

My mind hurts now.
