Bad news from the Limbo world. As you know the idea was to wrap a rope around the world at the equator at a height of 1 metre to allow everyone to limbo dance underneath the rope. Unfortunately a mistake was made in the length of the rope and it was apparently made to the exact measurement of the circumference of the earth and could only be wrapped around the earth at ground level.

My question is this: What length of rope needs to be added to the existing rope to allow them to lift the rope 1 metre off of the ground all around the world?
