The only thing I can figure out is that he used some form of
mental telepathy to cause the two rope ends to untie themselves
simultaneously and let the limb drop. ;-) There has to be a
better explanation.
As a boy I used to wonder at persons doing things that seemed to defy what I
thought could not be done. I'd spend days, weeks or years wondering
sometimes. Over time I gradually developed a method that has proven
invaluable. It requires cooperation, which isn't always forthcoming, but
usually it works very well.
Find the guy and ask him.
And, if I had written this post myself, I'd come back and tell everyone what
I'd just learned.
Regards,
Vince
