Last week I bought a 100' length of 3/4" nylon rope at a garage sale. It is a bit worn and I have absolutely no use for it, but figured that if I ever needed one it would be a lot more than $8. But after I got it home I found it had a big very tight knot; as shown in the photos.

It was even worse; the big loop went through the little loop, but I got that out. I thought it would all fall apart then, but it turned out to be the easy part.
Any clever methods for untying a knot like this?
