How to Tie a "Magic" Auto Release Knot - The Bellringer's Knot

Another handy knot!

Good reason to carry a few feet if thicker rope. Tie the thicker rope to your paracord and then use the thicker rope to tie this knot.

Been using that for 50+ yrs! Not new, nothing is new anymore.

Why disable add to list/collection? 👎

*update: thanks 👍👍👍

Power utility lineman have been using this knot, know by various names for decades. Great video

Its a running overhand knot....wow...you reinvented a 12,000 year old knot..."and then after i released the rope, i realized I needed my bear spray which was in the front pocket..."...use a long enough rope and you can lower both things and retrieve them as well....durrr

It’s half a sheep shank

What about to simply drop a bag with a rope?))

Sorry, but there are much more reliable knots that get undone when you pull the loose end, so you can just hold on to both ends of the rope.

I taught the Prussic knot to a helmet diver. He said it would going to be useful to carry his tool bag on his drop line.

The Bell ringers knot, not to be used for people or valuable things as you could truly get your
"bell rung"...

You are not wrong this is going to take a while does the rope have to be specific I have a flat road and it keeps coming undone does it need to be a larger rope

That's so cool!

Why am I just subscribing today I have to ask myself…I don’t know…but thank you.

If only some sort of completely detactchable metal loop with a spring-loaded gate used to quickly and reversibly connect components existed then we wouldnt need an easily foiled down knot. One day we will have the technology.

Technically speaking, this would be a hitch, since it has to be around something, or take tension in order to exist.

This totally explains the elvish rope in Lord of the Rings.

when are you going to do another food how to?

Can you do a video on the types of rope? I plan on getting more rope for an upcoming trip and I'm curious.

😅if the knot is "not" to be trusted, im Not using that knot!

Can you also insert a toggle in the loop to prevent slippage?

My new favorite channel.
Time to break out my practice strands.

🇵🇬.,.

I tried this and dropped my pack off a 400 ft. cliff




😂 in my mind

Idk how everyone got it first try. Im trying for literal days and can't do it.

How do we make rope???

Thank you

Where can I get kevlar or dynema rope?

Ay that “grab your rope and follow along” had Canyons and crags Rich Carlson vibes about it. 😅

Great knot to know thanks for sharing 👍

This channel is so good at explaining knots and showing the steps and I love it. Thank you!

Why not just put rope through anchor point and then hold two of rope ends while lowering and then release one end when you want to detach it? Yes, it halves the length of rope, but in presented situations I'm pretty sure that whould be not an issue - in opposite to this "knot" failing and droping your stuff.

A dangerous, unreliable know, don't trust your life to it. Like he says, don't trust it, it's dangerous.

Where can i buy some rope like the thick one you are using?

Hello, you teach attractive knots, they are really attractive

Great knot. Thanks 👍

I managed to get it first try 😀

❤❤❤❤

I did some experimenting and found this: look at the loop you push through the car key hole. If you have the loose end of the loop away from you, on the side of the car key hole that has only 1 rope and not on the side that has 2 ropes crossing, the knot is really solid and cannot be pulled apart (or at least takes a significant force to do so) when it has tension on it. If you have the loose end of the loop facing towards you, so on the side with 2 ropes crossing, the knot is unstable and can easily come undone under load. This was with a relatively slippery 5 millimeter rope.

Very cool!

That is not a "knot". That's a bind. And it's dangerous as hell under a load in the shown arrangement.

No one showed me this knot. I’ve been doing it for years. Thanks for giving me the name for it.

You misssed yhe opportunity to call the video "The coolest knot you have knot heard of"

What’s knot to love about it?

An easy alteration is to turn the "starting the car" loop away from you an extra turn or two and weave the bight through. Easier to get it to work and still remotely releasable

Keep it going

Hi friend
this knot is not reliable I tested it not approved. Thanks please teach us a more reliable knot better than this. I'll subscribe to catch it emmediatly after u post
