<p>In another question someone linked to <a href="http://www.math.toronto.edu/~drorbn/Gallery/KnottedObjects/WaistbandTrick/index.html" rel="nofollow">this video</a> where the lady ties a knot in a seemingly impossible manner. What I don't understand is how the end sticking out beyond her right hand gets longer as she pulls through (seems that if it's to change it should get shorter). This suggests to me that there is some footage cut out.</p>

I'd vote for you Sam but I don't have a good enough reputation, sorry.
