You are definitely "above the rope" instructor. Awesome AF!!!!!

[@samburdge9948]

Tearing it up bro

[@PaulMessner]

Zero BS as usual buddy. You make my stuff look like kindergarten 😂

[@NonRenderedBush]

Dude great video, keep this stuff up! Thank you

[@werewolf74]

[@normajeanhedlund7429]

Everyone who watches needs to hit the thumbs up too. That counts fir Shawn.

[@mikeriley4824]

KZbin isn't giving your channel justice. I really like this channel.

[@recall5811]

lost 80% and am being told everything is A-ok

[@Bennybushcraft]

I agree mikeriley

[@harveyhagar]

🙄🙄🙄🤔🤔🤔

[@NaomiH.]

KZbin clearly has a thing against certain people. They don't apply the same algorithm and notification posting across the board. They favor those people they want to promote, not necessarily who should be promoted. Then they shadow ban those they want fewer people to see. I have noticed my notifications being expired on my phone earlier for some channels (significantly earlier than others for this channel) and some almost never expire as they will stay in my notification drop down for days afterwards. I almost never see a notification for this channel longer than two hours in my notification dropdown on my phone. Obviously the notification will still stay in my KZbin subscriber notification list, but if anyone else is like me, I depend on my phone notification menu drop-down to see the newest notifications, and I don't scroll through my notification list for all the channels I've ever subscribed to directly within the app. I reported my feedback to KZbin a few months ago with my observations and how much I don't appreciate how that works about it, but they never responded back.

[@danpost4755]

OUTSTANDING MARINE! 😎👊👍💪

[@mickbator6979]

That was awesome, you're killing it!

[@jamesstarcher8949]

Impressive. I hated the slide for life. I couldn't maintain balance on top. Good to see 90's era Marines that still got it. !. I need to re-get it...SFMF. look forward to your vids

[@cristianespinal9917]

"It's not the years, it's the mileage." I felt that in my bones.

[@ATLPeer]

You still DO got it - and thanks for inspiration!

[@nathanadams5722]

You are absolutely correct about physical fitness. Disease disabled me. It doesn’t matter what I have previously done in my life. Without physical fitness, a person is useless. No matter the knowledge they possess. I am not giving up. But, so many things are either impossible for me to do, or, in the very least, very difficult to do. Take care of your health!

[@scottzackery3209]

As I've found ," once you get off the couch, and try it in the woods, you're actually learning something , and remember it." If you lived it you know it. Thanks for reminding all the armchair outdoorsmen, that only play in the sunshine. Like the , I still got it. Motivation for life.

[@bradpresley84]

Actually got a notification this time instead of having to look it up. Outstanding.

[@Bennybushcraft]

Me too brad for a change lol

[@lesmazur5690]

The Geese were the perfectly timed It was better than a air plane!!!

[@liberalgunnut1592]

Outstanding! “… you throw me the idol, I throw you the whip…no time to argue…”. Keep up the fantastic work!

[@MaggieKeizai]

Sure hope those geese didn't get you. Mean bastards. I love these rope bridges, this and rappelling were always my favorite thing to train when I was in. I remember in boot camp, the Sergeant Major kept shaking my one rope bridge and telling me to fall off. "Hey, fall off already!" When I became an NCO, I got to enjoy messing with privates much the same way. I recommend mushing one's squad like a dog team down the beach and having squad races on mandatory fun days.

[@jefferyhamilton7926]

Physical fitness is sooo important for life in general and survival specifically.

[@VendettaPtown]

Takes me back to my Air Assault days😎

[@hueyrotorhead]

We had to build this in a one week course that included land navigation, E&E , rappelling and demolitions in Alaska. Our cadre were Rangers from Ft Richardson

[@jpjohnbo]

Practiced this over and over and over again across Ship Creek just outside of Fort Richardson Alaska during a salmon run. I was the desiginated swimmer and had to fight the current as well as all the fish to get across, I was a stinky wet mess that day.

[@hueyrotorhead]

@@jpjohnbo I fished in Ship Creek

[@Ppbxvii]

As always, thank you. You bring back a lot of good memories (mostly) from basic. I also must compliment your work ethic and determination, a lot of our kids could use a good dose of Corporal’s Corner medicine in their lives. Keep up the great work.

[@kevinmoore2929]

Ah, yes. The memories. Had plenty of practice on the one and two rope bridge at Ft Wood and Ft Lee!

[@jamman3131]

Badassery at its finest! Thanks for another midweeker!

[@paulward4717]

Dude, you are an animal !!!!!😂 I've been watching for years now, and I am still amazed how you ALWAYS find new fresh content. Keep up the great work.

[@mrkultra1655]

Thanks Corporal. I was able to work with this a little a very long time ago when I was in the Civil Air Patrol. During one of our weekend search and rescue classes. This IS NOT easy! Even at 16 and only about 140lbs., and pretty fit, this was damn tough.

[@HDBrown-wc9xt]

I haven’t missed one episode since I found this channel 4 years ago. It’s the best

[@rickzaleski4117]

Hey Shawn, that’s why I always watch your channel. You actually build things, educate and demonstrate very well. Your not a talker but a do..er. which I appreciate. Thank you!

[@troybostick4511]

I loved this one. Makes me want to incorporate into a scouting scenario.

[@matthewmarsicano5301]

First time I've ever heard the top of the rope technique explained so it's easy to understand.

[@mr.w9964]

Hell yeah! Doing this at Ft Benning was one of the better parts of basic. You can't help but feel like a bad ass going down the rope like that

[@andrewsalacina9705]

I love getting my notifications for mid week videos . Thank you. And also my notifications for the usual Sunday morning videos

[@kcthecowboy]

Looks like my cadets have a new project coming up.

[@felgercarb-mu5rc]

Corporal wins again with the commando bridge! Absolutely love both the bridge and the physical fitness promotion!

[@varnindustries]

Thank you for this and all of your incredible content! Always looking forward to the next one!

[@RPGWoodworking]

Yar's Revenge was one of my favorites back in the day!

[@mitchh931]

Great video, having a good understanding of knots is such an under appreciated skill. It can literally be the difference between life and death in dire situations, and even outside of camping or rappelling, it can make life easier just in general.

[@glennkirchens7970]

Thank you for your honesty when talking about being ready when stuff hits the fan. Good luck in all of your endeavors.

[@georgehall4641]

Great job ! 75 year old man . I may not be dragging myself on a rope , but I don’t need an electric shopping cart to get my groceries . Keep up the good work.

[@gasher83]

I like the honesty in "someone has to eat it". I wonder, in actual bushcraft honesty, eat it once and save having to again, or find a new route. Always great vids and the best techniques.

[@tkskagen]

I really miss my Summer of 1993 MCRD Basic Training "Feild Book". Oogh-Rawh brother! If anything, your "Mid-Week Video's" make me miss Basic Training... If it hurts, it works.

[@terryshackelford712]

What fun it has been years since I transverse a commando bridge.

[@TheUnkBoogie]

The way you show the different nots and ropework is fantastic AF. That was impressive Corporal, inspiring AF, Thank You Good Sir!!

[@youwish3575]

All your content is awesome. While I definitely enjoy the shelter builds the most, I find myself learning something from every video. Great job as always.

[@brianslocum5159]

Gotta love it!

[@ArmoredXJ]

Classic! Love the one rope bridge and lots of ways to get it done. Always good to get that fitness reminder!

[@jimcooksey812]

Thanks for the video.. Have a great weekend... see you Sunday!

[@lethernek]

Wow...Parris Island flashbacks...awesome AF...SEMPER FI

[@robbyedwards6444]

I appreciate the bit about the importance of physical fitness. As someone who's carrying a little more weight then I should, it's helpful to have that kick in the pants every now and again.

[@danhollifield]

Shawn, you made that look easy, LOL! I know it isn't easy, but your training and practice gives you the proficiency to make it look easy. I imagine there are tricks you could employ to get an injured person across the ravine/river, or someone who's afraid of heights, etc. My first thought was something like a stretcher, suspended from the rope bridge with the incapacitated person strapped into it, towed behind someone crossing--or pulled across by someone who already crossed. Even if you had to make an improvised "stretcher" out of something like your 55-gallon drum liners & a frame--similar to the elevated beds you've made in previous videos. I can see it in my head, but I don't know if I'm explaining it well. In any case, great video! Thanks! --Dan

[@earlelzy9975]

That's why I love your videos. You walk the walk.

[@ramrod102]

AF!!!!! I Gary van zyl respect you Mr kelly I honestly think you tube should give more of what ever you lack 100 fold because you love what you do and share your wisdom in good honest faith

[@user-hx9tp9cn2h]

Amazing! You are to be commended for keeping yourself physically fit; & for setting a good & very challenging example for your viewers to follow! At age 82, that is beyond my ability; but I am capable of improving if I set my mind to it. Thanks for challenging us with personal example!

Outstanding AF Corp and God Bless America!! Stay Frosty and Keep your Powder Dry Corp!!

[@LorenWII]

With two alpine butterflies, one man can pull the work of seven! Do as Corporal Kelly, but tie a second alpine after coming around the tree. Then take your running end through the far alpine and back through the near alpine, repeat until you have 3 or 4 windings. This works as a Block and Tackle, multiplying your effort at the cost of less movement. I use this trick to create stiff ridgelines while camping, and it could certainly be used here.

[@charlesborum3910]

Will we use to cross the Chagres River in Panama when I was Station there just like that at the jungle operation training center at fort Sherman Panama. And yes, I was the guy that swam across. I love your channel keep it coming.

[@mikeelder6298]

Brings back memories of the Confidence Course in USAF basic training, and C-Rats for lunch.

[@Jaden48108]

I went through the same course. For some damn reason I liked the C-rats . . .

[@mikeelder6298]

@@Jaden48108 yah. Some of the C-Rats were pretty good, but there was some that even a buzzard wouldn't eat.

i like this channel very much, simple and easy 👍👍👍

[@user-uj9qk4rv4y]

[@Ian-gd3kr]

I knew you were in shape when I saw you digging all those fighting position bunkers. I did stuff like that when i was young, and it just about killed me then.

[@JOE-on4pi]

Love these mid-week episodes, full of great information!

[@larrybundy4643]

I was there for the first time you did this. You still got it.

[@811NJUtilityLocating]

I love that you had your web gear on for the bridge crossing segment of the video! That is next level AF!!! 🙂

[@elcomandante9m]

Another way for people that don’t have the strength to pull themselves upside down is to attach themselves with a carabiner at the waist to help support their weight and pull with their arms or even attach another rope and have someone help pull them from the other side if there are multiple people.

[@vesslewis9166]

Good one. Love the effort and love the message. That's why I keep coming back.

[@stevewood9477]

Great midweek. Like how you simplified this. I watched your other rope bridge videos. You have still got it. Thanks for the midweek video.

[@andyking6605]

As always Great Video and by using the same knots as bushcrafting, makes it so much easier to remember!! Thanks CPL!!

[@Caldaborg38]

This brings back many memories of when we bult rope bridges in JROTC. I thought after I joined the Army that we'd use this skill often but after basic it was put to the side for other important skills relating to the mission. Great video as always, Sean!

[@elcomandante9m]

Ah, memories of the slide for life USMC.

[@joeldickherber3545]

Your right about fitness. Going across the rope bridge is not as easy as you make it look. Ive done it many times in the military. Im going to do this with my grandkids. Great skill to teach them plus a fun activity for them. Thanks for all you do.

[@bob3036us1958]

Outstanding AF. You are right about being fit. I’m 65 always stayed in good shape but time has caught up with me a little. I am working on it. 😊

My only addition- I carry a 4th Carib. I attach it from my belt (riggers) and hang using it while my hands pull me across. If it’s really high, I’ve used a pulley to assist with the weight. Awesome video.
