Sam's rope was magical, as we established. It was made by the people of Lorien, MAYBE by Galadriel herself (did it say somewhere that it was? I forget...time to read the books again, I guess). It seemed to have a "brain" of sorts, it seems, and to "serve" it's wielder, such as "letting go" of the rock, etc.
I wish I had a rope like that...
