One player volunteers to leave the room. The others join hands in a circle, and without letting go, form themselves into a complicated, twisted mass of bodies. This is done by maneuvering about- raising arms and ducking under, lifting feet over joined hands, climbing over or under each other. The players are drawn closer together until finally they become a tight knot, with head, arms, and feet protruding in different directions. The player outside comes back in and tries to unravel this human pretzel. He tries to return it to a circle shape without loosening any of the players' hands. This may be done as a competitive race between two teams.
