"Hi everybody, let's talk about ring and rope stuff. Now, there is tons of good magic using rings and ropes and its cool penetration stuff. This is a metal ring that I have, just that I got somewhere, don't remember where but if you can find like a plastic bangle bracelet or even like a thick metal bangle bracelet, ask your mom if you're like a teenager she might have one. This is going to be the same thing it is just a solid ring. We are going to have Mr. Hand help us out. Now, the way this works is we take this ring, we thread it through here just like this and we take the ends and we put them through the loop. So what we basically have is like, I think that is called a half hitch knot or a larks head. I think that is a larks head, but that's okay. We are going to have Mr. Hand hold the ends here. You don't want him to hold too tight, you want to have a little of slack here. What happens under the handkerchief because we are going to want to cover this up with a handkerchief but what happens under the handkerchief is this, I just pull down on the loop of rope and it just comes right through. You can even do this backwards like this, but this is what he starts with and it is just a little known principle of this kind of knot that you can just pull down on that and it'll off set it self and come right through without have letting go of the ends. Now all you do is you do that under the cover of a handkerchief and you got a ring and rope penetration."
