This is going to change my life forever. It will never be the same again.

You deserve to feel recognized as a genius

I want one of those. Thank you.

Listen up, ye landlubbers and salty dogs alike! I've tangled with this so-called "revolutionary" knot, a creation so audacious it makes the Gordian Knot look like a child's shoelace. This abomination, this affront to maritime tradition, this...this thing, it slips like a buttered eel on a hot griddle! Imagine, if you will, a blind, one-handed, arthritic lemur with a debilitating case of dyslexia attempting to tie a half hitch with a rope soaked in whale blubber. Aye, that's a more secure connection than this pretender's knot! It unravels faster than a drunken sailor's yarn at a tavern brawl! This knot, it mocks the very fabric of our nautical heritage! It spits in the face of centuries of seafaring ingenuity! It dances a jig of derision upon the decks of our proud vessels! I've seen barnacles with a firmer grip! I've witnessed limpets cling to rocks with more tenacity! This knot, it's a disgrace to the name! It's a travesty! A mockery! A...a...a catastrophe of maritime proportions! I implore you, fellow mariners, heed my warning! Shun this knot like a plague-ridden rat! Cast it into the depths from whence it came! Let it be swallowed by the leviathan and forgotten forevermore! For I say unto you, this knot is not fit for a hangman's noose, let alone the rigging of a ship! It's a danger to life and limb, a menace to navigation, a blight upon the seven seas! So let us raise a toast, my friends, to the memory of this failed experiment! May it serve as a cautionary tale for all who dare to meddle with the sacred art of knot tying! And may we never again have to witness such a pitiful excuse for a knot disgrace our beloved ropes! Now, where's my grog? I need to wash the taste of this nautical nightmare from my mouth!

First documented recording!?!?!? Omg bro!

Cloudy mind creates cloudy stupidity...

I've used a variation of the sheepshank to lower branches down in tree work with no grounder. It pretty much works the same way as this video without the hook and a secure hold on the limbs until it's shook free.

In cold, never take any inner layers other than wool. It will keep you warm even if it is wet! The down was a poor choice.

You need to expand your menu!

Wicked. I’ll have to show that my my kids. So far we just use basic knots like overhand or if their solid, a truckers hitch. Good work.

I hate when I do a jerk and have a premature release of my load. now I use a bear's grip to jerk around when I want to drop my load. I can do the same thing with a larks head and a stick for a toggle yes?

How does DST affect this? Thxs

I love when I came back to some channels and see that I'm already subscribed. That helps me to know that I did the right choice even if I'm not gonna watch them all the time but when i will need to learn new stuff regarding that matter. Which is what it meant to be. You can't watch surviver, cooking, tech, gaming or w/e else videos all the time. You just binge a lot of them for a time, then go for another "trip" then another and... so on. till you came back again to one of them and binge some more... I suppose lot of us do that and that is a healthier growth for any channel. Not just once and then never come back. Am i right?

Hardly anyone wears a watch anymore. So either you have your phone and don't need to make a bark compass. Or you dont have your phone so dont know what time it is, so can't use your bark compass. Pointless.

Is this for hoisting things when living in tree houses?

Yes. As a ranger commander I usually use a flint and steel. Love your show.

Isnt it good been how we are that people cant find or figure this out them selfs ............ 😢

I just bought one of these and I'm excited for it! Keep releasing cool gear dude!

Giving it a tug and jerk and prematurely dropping your load 😂😂

What happened to your 🪓 ?

Great thank you for sharing your knowledge, instead of stupid s#!t.

Best knot tutorial I've ever seen. So many of the others are difficult to understand what they actually did. The taught line hitch is especially useful to me.

I got one of these, really like it…

Thanks! Excellent tutorial. I would like to add a recommendation. Others may (or very well may not) appreciate the change, but I will throw it in anyhow. You could slow down all parts of the knot (let’s say third-grade level), and very importantly (so as to not force me to have to pause and back up ten seconds over and over) after each part, stop and slowly undo what you just did and repeat it. While everything you are doing is quite clear, as you move along I forget (did he go over or under? which part of the rope did he pull? was that two loops to the left or the right?) because there are so many unique steps. Having said all that, I realize that regular folks can probably grasp it only going through it once, so, what say you first do it like you’re doing it and then let the remainder of us [me] watch the modified junior version that you perform after the others are gone. I am working with my rope alongside you because hands-on works much better for me. Thanks for your consideration and for providing what you are doing.

Using the nob or tag that controls the size of flame you on lighter Ok you got a flame that is tiny so know your almost out of gas try move the flame tag to max then push up of cog move back to small size flame the push back on to cog then move cog to max flame aim is open valve in lighter as much as you can then shake the light use it you get few extra lights out last of gas in your lighter

I remember when men use to invent things that changed the world. Now they just tie knots, and then make purilejokes about knots.

Thank you now I will never jerk loose a premature load again

Your videos are inspiring! Thanks for what you do.

My ex gf had a "Bear's Grip." Damn, I should call her.

Been an outdoorsman for fifty years, and I think this may be the first time I've seen 'camping hacks' that weren't totally ridiculous - good job. For your last hack I was ready for you to suggest using horsetail grass if it's around. It apparently captures silica, and makes a great scrubber.

cool item but... i am from Greece and amazon say that they dont deliver here ☹

I honestly thought this was literally talking about a 🐓 ring like thing metaphorically… I reckon I was wrong. I wonder if this was meant for actual knowledge or if the innuendo was… 🤔 The more you know 🌠

Hi, Another great video, well done again and excellent idea for the wallet. Just ordered from your main website, Amazon US doesn't seem to like🇨🇭for some reason... :-)

Oh they knew exactly what they were saying!

My top camping hack is to never go camping…ta da!

Does this work for both AM and PM?

Never drop your load before your ready

Why is there no option to save a “reel” ????

Even if they taught it in school, there would be dumbarses that still don't pay attention.

You would think that the bear grip would be the thing to cause premature load release…

If I'm ever in the states I'll buy one as postage to Europe and import duties they charge are ridiculous. Looks a top quality piece of kit!

This is not the first time I've seen this not😅😅😊😊😊😂😂😂😂

Hats of to you DJ on developing all this stuff 😁

Fantastic! Thanks for explaining some of the variants.

Nothing keeps mosquitoes away but deet.

Jesus Christ please don't do this in the middle of the woods

Do you have a link?

I am a knot guy, and I'm usually the knot guy in the group of people I'm with. I like that knot. I think I'm going to practice it and put it into use. The main downside I see is that if there's actually any movement at all around the anchor that you're using to provide the constant tension, your knot could slip because the load will decrease and it might just fall apart on you. That's the thing that I would be most concerned about and maybe use the conventional way of tying it more often.

Those people that just spend years figuring out unknown knot combos
