*OOH OOH OOH*

[@furiousdestroyer5022]

🤣

[@CaiCanMake]

1:50 for the knot-tying part.

[@jblucchi2]

Your the only person I found who actually walks you through tieing it, thanks man

[@tjsands1118]

While the intro seems to drag on a little bit to me, the actual instruction is well done, easy to follow, and by far the best of the multitude of videos I've watched trying to figure out how to make these things.Thank you.

[@j2hip210]

thankyou it showed me how to do it more than the other videos you explained it more in detail and that really helped me now im gonna go try to make one with a golf ball in it

[@TheDogondone]

Man, I watched a ton of other vids on this and could not figure it out. I finally got it down with this vid! Thanks for a great job!

[@tjkluse]

Thanks for the video. Your instructions were very clear and easy to follow.

[@micayla8799]

I've watched like 10 other videos and still couldn't complete this knot. Thank GOD I stumbled across this. Thanks so much for the easy explanation 🙌

[@gijoe1973]

Awesome video! I learned this in the 80's and forgot a step or two! Good refresher.

[@carissafidik9186]

You made it look so easy. Hope I can do it too! I plan on making some dog chew toys using this knot and some rope. Thanks for sharing.

[@TheAbusiyam]

Why being so negative? I saw many videos, but from this one I learned how to do and it looks very nice. Thank you forest man....

[@daynecoates003]

love your background. plywood and unpainted dry wall. awesome

[@texashawk777]

Great idea using heavier rope as opposed to paracord, much easier to see the intricate wrapping, hands dont block the view

[@Rutzorr11]

Came here because of spongebob :D

[@captianmeade]

I was not actually looking for this knot,. but my step father had been, this will definitely be fun,.. to show him(a seasoned former sailor) a knot to tie (from a non seasoned sailor) Thanks

[@LifesAdventures555]

REally Kool!! I would have liked to have known this back in martial arts days!!

[@rschip]

I like this simpel handy knot that has its own purposes. Thank you for showing this.

[@critter_creek_nature_videos]

Great instructions, the best I've found on the web. Thanks for posting it.

[@SpinyCop]

thank you for putting this video on youtube it was really helpful.

[@TheTobyKing]

thanks soooooo much!! first of many utub instructions on the monkey fist which really worked!!! thank you soooooooo much!!!!

[@tonysolay]

I always wondered how they were made.......you made it so easy. Thanks

[@thelastromance488]

I really understood the steps very well thanks to you, thank you very much 🥰🙏🏻

[@SamChaneyProductions]

Thanks so much for this tutorial, it's definitely the best one on youtube. I just made a pair of fire poi for my girlfriend for Christmas in about 2 minutes haha.

[@salvadorzamora5637]

You made it look so easy compared to other vids i saw

[@ImJustSayin9]

It's commonly used as a heaving line for ships when someone needs to pass the heave ropes to the shore from the ship or In reverse. I was always wondering how did they do it !! Awesome job. Thank you

[@hunterwood5231]

This video is sooooo much better than the firsts one I tried

[@punkrocka27]

i love how long it takes him to describe everything, still a useful vid.

[@captswirley139]

In the Navy this knot was used to throw (or using a special "gun" to shoot) the monkey knot to another ship cruising along side your own ship. Then they would use the smaller rope (line) to pass over a larger line, then a larger line, until a cable large enough to move supplies over from one ship to another. Boatswain's Mates are normally the best riggers and knot tie-ers onboard ship.

[@ThePerfect1077]

Awesome video, ty, and i don't think it is slow and i prefer the amount of explanation he did, especially considering the fact that in the description, he says "An IN DEPTH guide". So stop complaining.

[@andersonlewis853]

This video was helpful. I was able to tie this knot before the instructor. I'd say it was pretty good. BTW, Dem Feels (3 posts below) i am pretty sure you knew how to do that all along.

[@WiserStealth]

Thanks for the video. I've seen your previous one(and I liked that one too), but I think this one had a better angle. Also, I think you helped me straighten out my problem with the number of turns the rope needs to wrap around.

[@ewankhristian]

thank you for taking the time to make these

[@NWBushman]

Excellent step by step, a bit wordy at first. Great job!

[@Kayakwinds]

That was very well done. Another video conc6 the monkey fist just confused me. Thanks very much!

[@cbs7777]

The cracking sound from a whip is the sound barrier being broken if I'm not mistaken.

[@allyoucanhopefor]

Great video, very clear and easy to follow!!! Thanks for sharing :)

[@xwavestr]

Today KZbin taught me how to make homemade smoke bombs and Medieval flails out of ropes .

[@SmurfYeahBizNitches]

this video is very helpful. i needed an easy make weapon to fight off those ninjas trying to steal my pie

[@paradiseadventurer]

because it's so time consuming to tie and untie, where as typically, stopper knots are tied and untied frequently.

[@PulseTap]

nice video brother, and very easy to understand, thx!

[@ezio0501]

this is a well detailed video good job man

[@carrtje01]

easy instruction. Good job. I haven't tried tying it yet, but it seems you could easilly modify this knot by adding more loops per turn, no?

[@cavecanem1741]

This video was great!.... Knot!

[@bon_mariner]

Awesome video very easy to learn

[@thalmat1]

that was cool good info in the video good light and cam work .. good job . thinking about making one . thanks

[@DJacKnifeAlpha]

lol I wonder how many people went out and tried to knock someone out with those...or even tried to light one on fire :D nice video! *SUBSCRIBED*

[@iyamhoooiyam]

Thank you. I'm going to try it with a range of rope sizes. Looks to me as if big, heavy MKs would make good door stops and book ends.

[@ashenpuddle]

Just some constructive criticism for the maker of this video to help you in the future: realize that you need to keep the speed at which you're explaining constant throughout and that that speed needs to be SLOW. In particular when you're showing the transition from one set of tucks to the next set AND when you're rotating the finished knot, rotate it very *slowly*. You flip back and forth so fast, I can't tell how the transitions between tuck directions are supposed to look in the final knot. I don't intend to be mean with these comments...just helpful. Thank you for the video.

[@jamiesmith6940]

It's my first time doing this.It took me about 80 times to get this right.Now it's so simple to do.Now

[@ObeyCamp]

On top of that, attach three of them together and make a Boleadora (three weights.) Make sure one of the balls hangs lower than the other two, and the lower ball should weigh more than the two shorter ones. Hold it by the heavy ball, swing it around above your head and throw it at the legs of your target. It's an excellent hunting tool and with practice--and maybe a little bit of luck--you can hobble your target and take it down. There are versions with as many as eight or nine weights!

[@DanielHoherd]

Very cool vid, thanks for the great instructions!

[@e3IZrZ]

This guy at the beginning has such violent suggestions lol

[@cedartowndawg]

Wow... That looks so much more simple than one of my knot books showed.

[@mike14all]

Could you use a golf ball as a weight

[@DallasTxEMT]

Awesome knot by the way!

[@artfte]

so sorry I fell asleep befor you finnished

[@onestooge]

You are very smart with good camera work & lighting, just focus... the babble wasted about half of the time needed to show it. Please do more (this was not meant to be harsh, just honest).

[@EverDarkness147]

Great video man! Just got it recommended :D

[@donfolstar]

You left out the most fun part of the monkey fist knot- untying it!

[@pickled3m0n]

damn u make the knot sound lethal

[@1993012501]

nice vid i gonna try it greeting from Holland - Rotterdam

[@DGA2000]

Great video! Thanks for the help.

[@joseeusebiocasas]

Excelente. Aprendí hacerlo. Muy útil para decorar la bolsa del libro de cintura o Libro de peregrino

[@gaspifrancisco1982]

SIr its honor for me to see this video guide... hope you share your knowledge to others!! godbless from PH.. >:D

[@bobkoullen5526]

Wow! you really helped me out mate! thank you very much :)

[@TheSilentLightning]

Very informative video. I imagine this would make an interesting topic. Thanks for making this video :D

[@keithbaudoin6747]

thnx u , u made it easy for me and other pple

[@FonrarMon]

well nice instructions although i wasnt looking for this kind of film at all ;-) cheers

[@DETH_ADDR]

thumbs up if you lolled when he said you can swing it around and knock people out with it lol

[@braken506]

I've learned this knot at 7 years old, helped me beat up my older bros! >:D anyways, you can put a rock or marble inside to add weight. And if you don't like that extra bit of string, put it on the inside

[@rickydeeman]

I was wondering what you usually do with the end? Say if I wanted it to look a little nicer?

[@mipueblo7042]

Cheers for this information.

[@mikewood866]

CHEERS FOR THE VIDEO FELLA. Mike UK

[@Jegdor]

If i form this knot around my weight to begin with, will i be able to tighten it as i go, rather than having to tighten it in the end?

[@nabi0823]

@forresttrenaman what can i do to get rid of the stump with the black tape wrapped around it? Like to where its smooth all around?

[@Deepwaterjew]

@skidpiggy it has nothing to do with the suggestion bar at all its all put in order by the tags in it

[@APVT80]

All the videos on youtube show a 3 loop monkey fist. The actual # of rounds you will need to make depends on the size of the center object and the diameter of your rope. Be aware of this when making a monkey fist. FOR EXAMPLE: using standard paracord with a 1" steel ball requires FIVE rounds to completely cover the sphere inside. The extra rounds significantly increase the complexity of the tie and the time to tighten; patience is a virtue with that.

[@ETAD-ne8wr]

We used this knot in the navy to throw a line to the pier guys so we could get a mooring line back.

[@bentumbling4513]

And it was attached to the heaving line.

[@matthewc4e]

next time i'm gonna need to make about a 1000 of these knots i'll come back and watch the rest of the vid.

[@PLANESplusCARS]

thanks so much, I know how to tie them now!

[@cheyannesanchez8035]

thanks it helped take out the school bully :)

[@punkmuffin]

what can you do with that? Is it a weapon?

[@burkster76]

Brilliant this is something i've always wanted to be able to do and now I can with the help of this video thanks :o)

[@rouelibre1]

Kevlar rope is free. Fancy bicycle tires ($60 and up) are folding, since you can carry two in your back pocket. The bead is made of Kevlar instead of steel wire. Fancy and whealthy cyclit throw them away every day. For a polypropylene or a poly ethylene line, I'd go for a "melt-down" bulge, fist or knot over a hot red kitchen range instead of tape. JMOHO

[@Dontchokeonfear]

@seifercifersifer were you watching the video with mute on?

[@Odood19]

thanks! definately subbing

[@deanf97]

[@nicholasjones5995]

It was really nice of Jesse Eisenberg to make this video.

[@inchworm101]

[@bRonni100]

[@herasmito]

Thank you very much!!! Loved it! :)

[@1JanssenH]

When do you show us how to fix your floor or maybe paint your wall also? That would be tricky!

[@GOBBLERTLH]

Awesome, I think I'm gonna have to try that! =)
