The Indian Rope Trick
Sometimes described as “the world’s greatest illusion”, Indian Rope Trick is one of the oldest and sensational magic items found in India. It was first performed in the 1800s and this trick involves a magician, a length of rope, a wicker basket and one or more boy assistants. In ancient times this trick were staged after sunset.
In the classic version the Fakir, an elderly person, throws a rope to the air, which stiffens like a stick. A boy climbs on that rope and disappears. The Fakir climbs the rope in search of the boy and he too disappears. Screaming sounds are heard. The limbs of the boy fall down. The Fakir comes down, collects the limbs and put them in a bag. The boy comes out of the bag.
In the simplest version of the trick, the magician hurls a rope into
the air and it does not fall but stands erect. Either the magician or
the boy assistant climbs the rope and disappears after reaching the top,
subsequently reappearing at ground level.
