Normally I would not say anything but I just watched about ten other "how to" tie a bowline knot videos and I just went away frustrated. Your video actually taught me to tie a bowline. Great job and thanks so much. I don't feel like a dummy anymore.

[@joshvanderwesthuizen]

Even me dude haha

[@grantmitchell1656]

[@denisegarbinski6103]

Great vid. No frills.....no stupid commentary making it seem easy. Just did it. Got it done. Period. Thank you

[@rhov-anion]

I did this knot hundreds of times back on the college sailing crew. Like so many others here, I didn't need to tie it for decades and completely forgot. Then when I needed it, I found you. This former sailor thanks you, sir!

[@aucourant9998]

The very best explanation I've seen. I've done this knot dozens of times before but always struggle to remember which way the loop goes and which hole I'm coming back through. For the first time, I know exactly what I'm doing.

[@Kevinpeterhall87]

You are very exacting in your commentary. Great teaching skills, brother.

[@BummersAbound]

Best video on the bowline. Couldn’t get it watching 10 other guys before this one.

[@rubi5250]

Watched soo many other videos this was the only one that worked for me thank youuu🙏

[@robyngrogan7647]

Thank you so very much for showing me how to tie this knot. I could understand you better than anyone else.

[@jpStarBurst]

I agree that I've watched at least ten other videos & the instructions in this one is by far the easiest to understand. I tied one along with the video one time, paused the video and was able to successfully tie it again. First time ever!

[@alzeNL]

i feel like ernie from seasame street is teaching me how to tie a bowline knot - awsome vid btw

[@Skedawg88]

Gotta love his voice.

[@Turbocharge532]

Thank you you taught me how to tie one

[@jcbrook9463]

[@fletcher4098]

Jacob Pannell wat

[@helpfulcommenter]

Bowling knot lol

[@Mike-qo8nm]

you sir are the man. watched so many other videos this is BY FAR the quickest and easiest demo on the bowline

[@normansidey5258]

I learned this knot as a Boy Scout used it frequently during my service in the British Army then had no occasion to use until now at the age of 71 while cutting some trees back from my side of property’s boundary, and guess what I had forgotten how to do it. Your video explained in such a manner that I could not believe I had forgotten how it goes. Thanks a lot mate for sharing I shall not forget the process from now on. Normski

[@sharkpitt]

Clear concise and precise!Thank you so much

[@caspartambian7193]

Others are hard but yours is great

[@simonsmith6724]

I could not get my head around this knot. I am dyslexic so struggle with things like this but you video NAILED it for me. Thanks so much. I won't look such a ditz at sailing class tomorrow

[@CyberpunkV2077]

Simon Smith good luck

[@waynehearst317]

Hope this comment helps some of you because I struggled with this simple knot because I kept thinking the ORIGINAL LOOP I made was going to end up being the final Bowline loop. NO! That first loop you make @0:32, forget about it, it goes away and the loop you make when you bring up the main line creating the actual final loop @0:44 - anyway, this is what made the knot very easy for me.

[@Kopie0830]

Thanks bro. Simple and straight to the point.

[@shawman676]

I too watched several videos and couldn't figure it out until I came across yours. Getting ready to give up.

[@triciacherise8084]

This is the best video on tying a boling knot.

[@V1_ULTRAKILL3535]

Oh man what a breathtaking tutorial!

[@Billsmafia1314]

Bro, this helped, now when I get to scouts I can get through the scout master conference and become first class

[@vishnudas9476]

Just like magic.. you just discovered how to teach a bowline knot.

[@lachlanpurdon3781]

This video saved me

[@lathikakp7226]

Clear and flawless, great job

[@finmanpoozie4756]

Best video I've seen on this specific knot!!! Great job

[@catherinelee1256]

This is the only video I found that shows clearly what to do at the end to pull the knot tight. This is where I was getting messed up and so frustrated! Thank you for the clear, close up tutorial.

[@JestyTheJester]

This helped me with my Second Class BSA scout rank, thank you!

[@Visiblyblue]

This is by far the best video I've seen on learning to tie a bowline knot, 👍 job

Great video. Thank you

[@holdencaulfied7492]

I like how you finish by announcing you walked it through in a step by step manner. I know, I just watched it.

[@andrewevans1358]

My late granddad taught me this knot when he was alive, except I forgot how to tie it over the last decade. This was a great way to learn the knot again and make an emotional connection with him at the same time. Can’t thank you enough!

[@eddienew4462]

thank you for this video rally helped me out

[@onyxblue5929]

You just helped me keeping my job thank you so much I couldn’t freaking learn it

[@poplarparkfilms]

Best explanation I’ve seen for this knot thanks so much

[@charleseden5246]

Great instructions and visual....to help remember the steps....think, the rabbit comes up thru the hole and then runs around the tree and then back into his hole....thanks for the video

[@lawrencedrinkard]

Feels odd to comment on such an old video, but this was very helpful!

[@phillipborzick2117]

[@OpheliaJohn-j7u]

Thank you sir

[@shobana2590]

Thank you so much

[@blakepresent]

Great Video, you made it simple. Thank you so much.

[@brocknspectre1221]

Next level: For my swift water rescue certification, you tread water as a boat goes buy and throws you a rope. As the boat continues by, you grab the rope with one hand, don’t let go and with the other hand secure the rope around your waist with a bowline before the boat pulls away again, and yes, it is possible to tie a bowline with one hand.

[@boncinema]

Step by Step! Finally something clear and to the point. Thank you for your teaching skills.

[@Dickyboi99]

I finally can put it on my neck after hearing Baby Shark for 12 Straight Hours

[@ahnafwali8288]

[@squareguard2604]

[@ActuallyJammy]

[@jennastorr4832]

Thank you! This video helped me so much.

[@jacobrees4848]

Thanks, really clear and informative

[@flaviamihai6884]

Very useful video! Thank you!

[@damonr4136]

You started out great nice and slow and then just speed thru about midway thru

[@tomjohnson3004]

Best

[@swanee22]

Simplified: The rabbit comes up the hole, goes around the tree, and goes back down the hole. Got it? That's how my uncle, a scout master, showed me when I was 10, and it stuck with me.

[@joshsmith3284]

great video, I watched 5 other ones before I figured it out first try with this..Thanks!

[@SwampDonkey64]

The rabbit comes out of the hole, goes around the tree and then goes back in the hole.

[@magdalenaswiatczak5696]

It took me a few try’s but when I got it it just clicked thanks this really helped

[@brennandodds]

Hey, this might sound weird but do you know where I could buy the rope you are using in this video? It would be perfect for a demonstration I am planning for scouting. Thanks!

[@fletcher4098]

Brennan Dodds I think it’s just a shoelace with tape on the end.

[@TheDrizzNizzle]

Just need quite a bit more tail on that dead end. Good video

[@AwesomeAndrew]

Thanks man, awesome video, great work.

[@JERSEYTOMATO]

Nicely demonstrated- thanks

[@hollygolightly8048]

Change headlight inn2017 Ram

[@dnsndhxjxjyandnncjxjcjc1788]

More knots !

[@HuggyDoesStuff]

Real

[@tedlahm5740]

Tie it to an OBJECT. the view will be different?

[@TheBestBlueGuy]

Like a neck

[@ccrider-]

When one pulls on the end, it tugs on the loop and doesn’t work.

[@YesSir280]

Hi

[@upalbarot9701]

👍

[@beatlesdork1274]

Thank you Michael Rappaport for the demonstration. I thought your character in friends was kinda annoying, but I think you’re a funny guy, maybe the character was just written poorly. Idk. To be honest, I mostly tune out the Phoebe storylines anyway. We get it, you’re quirky and your mom’s dead. Chandler and Monica were the heart and soul of that show. RIP Matthew Perry.

[@airi5219]

its all fun and games until 1:01

[@MNpicker]

👌🏼👍🏼🤘🏼

[@RichSobocinski]

Good instruction but the word is pronounced "bo-lin" even though it looks like it should be "bo-line"

[@darrellbrown8558]

What happened to the rabbit, hole and tree......

[@ralfsxm851]

Palstek again

[@_pugjake10_91]

1st lol

[@mewhengooseta106]

_ PugJake10 _ god dammit I thought I could be

[@rekyang]

lol

[@macmen007]

after you make the knot about 10 times.... do it with your eyes closed for re-enforcement

[@helpfulcommenter]

It’s reinforcement not re-enforcement (that’s not even a word)

[@macmen007]

​@@helpfulcommenter Looks like you understood the statement (misspelling and all).... thanks "snappy-cappy-dusty"!

[@user-fh9qd3xm2g]

😮😮😮😂😂❤❤❤

[@Kumachanchan]

BO LIN not BOW LINE

[@Kaptan3333]

You are a beginner

[@tonycampbell1178]

It isn’t pronounced “bow-line”, it’s “bo-lin”

[@kwilsonjr]

In what world do you tie knots with the rope hanging from above? Show how to tie knots in a real world environment, with the rope hanging from your hand. Worthless.

[@kimmcalinden6042]

Pee pee poo poo

[@tommyharris5817]

Waste of time as there's much easier methods. Plus, it's pronounced Bow-lin.

[@Ready4pressure]

The worst video I ever watched wtf
