Corda indiana - Stiff Rope (Yellow) by Mr. Magic

You show a coiled lemon yellow rope. Hold it stretched between the hands. Suddenly leave one hand and the rope falls hanging down. Holding it once again and giving magical passes, it slowly turns stiff. Yes, you now hold in the middle and the rope extends from both sides as stiff as a stick. You break the magical trance and immediately it becomes flexible like an ordinary rope.
