When I was in the N.S.W Rural fire service we had to learn a number of knots. The bowline was one of them,but we had to learn how to tie it around ourselves one handed. The hypothetical scenario being than you had slipped down an embankment or small cliff and needed to secure yourself from falling any further by hanging on to something, leaving only one hand free to tie the knot.

[@lonewolfsurvival3453]

Thank you Corp. Kelly, I love these short and to the point tutorials. Hands down, one of the best bushcraft and general survival channels out there.

[@Crangaso]

2 minute Bowline crash course!

[@brucemattes5015]

*Great video!* *The bowline knot is an ultra-important knot that every outdoors person should be able to tie with both hands, from any direction, around anything or anyone, and regardless of whether they can easily see or if it is pitch black outside. The bowline knot is super important for mariners and climbers alike.* *It was the first knot taught to me when I learned how to rock climb in the military back in 1977.* *Followed in quick succession by the.......* *Double Overhand Stopper knot* *Double Fisherman's knot* *Figure 8 Bend knot* *Directional Figure 8 knot* *Figure 8 Directional Loop knot* *Prussik knot* *Sheepshank knot* *There's probably a couple of other knots that I am forgetting, but I last climbed with a braided climbing rope for security, almost 43 years ago.*

[@user-hx9tp9cn2h]

EXCELLENT! The simplest, clearest, & easiest demonstration Ive ever seen! And that dates back to my Scouting days in the early 1950s! Thanks, Corporal! You are the GENERAL of Bushcrafting!

[@Metalheaddoc]

Right on! I learned the first way as make an overhand loop (looks like a six) on the standing end, then with the short end "the rabbit comes out of the hole, goes around the tree then back down the hole". Pull the loop and working end to tighten. The bowline around the tree demonstration is the best one I have seen for that version. Very clear. I love your knot and rope videos.

[@Swisswoods]

Grandfather was a Navy officer, few ropes and an old knot/splice book was his idea of keeping the kids busy while babysitting, long before internet. To this day I stll hear, after days of trying .... correct, excellent, now close your eyes and do it again. Perfect, well done, now do it behind your back ..... and yep, my own boy now can tie a bowline. Great vid as always . C.

[@mrkultra1655]

Thanks Corporal, can never have too much practice with knots

[@patrickgreen2361]

Easy peasy, lemon squeeze

[@jerrodfrederking971]

Excellent! This is very valuable. I have known this knot for almost 30 years and this video helped me re-learn it in a better way. Thank you so much!

[@joenavy4768]

Corporal K: The bowline was hard for me to "see" during my BSA years, but always advertised as "easy." As a L-handed student standing in front of my R-handed instructor I always saw the step-by-step process upside down and backwards. With only occasional successes I didn't master control of the three lines in the final tensioning process (the working line, loop, AND the free end). It confounded me for all those years. Years later a tug boat deckhand demoed the "inline twist, flip, tuck, thread, pinch, and work (pull) method" during a Red Cross sailing class. That day it all clicked and the bowline became my go-to knot. I use it everywhere as a slip-loop (lariat knot), as a non-slip loop (safety hoist), or as a connecting/attaching knot for radio antennas and heaving-line throw bags. The bowline is a great teaching knot that helps kids achieve mastery of a mysterious thing. Mastery of the bowline mystery can lead to mastering other difficult things like woodland survival, abstract math, musical instruments, relationships, and life in general. Thanks for all you're doing Sean, you're making a difference. I introduce you, "the amazing, humble, and motivated, Corporal Kelly" and your channel to all my students. I appreciate EVERY video, even stern/tired Sean. Grown up life is certainly not a bed of roses, my friend. ...until next time.

[@phyllisclark3896]

Love these knot videos. Crash course. Thank you ❤️🙏

[@bigbake3306]

Your knot videos are the best to learn from . I have saved every one to reference when I need a refresher. Keep up the knowledge. Thats some good livin right there!

[@jxvolker]

I like these short teaching moments, keep it up.

[@terrystockstill251]

i,m 68 and some times i dont remember how to tie a bowline i did off shore 40 years a go i really THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOU,R VIDEOS KEEP DOING THIS FOR YOU,R FANS THAT APPRECIATE YOU LIKE I DO

[@scottmoore4039]

I really learned the easy bowline on I believe one of your other videos when you said, "Through the hole around the tree and back through the hole again" as a mnemonic device!

[@GrantSevert]

Once again, the corporal creates concise, clear, and informative content. Thank you sir.

[@4449John]

Nice demo as always, great content.

[@paulzimmerman3895]

Great refresher. Thanks. As always. Appreciate you!

[@davidhardinvideosthatyouma2656]

Wow! The bowline made simple at last.

[@josephwallace1938]

Thanks for this. I learned to tie this knot by the first example. But like to learn different ways.

[@donaldhobbs4605]

Hell, that was so damn easy even us Air Force guys could that. Good work!!

[@jasongarling20]

Great instruction! Multiple ways to accomplish the same goal!

[@gimponatrip425]

Out of all the years in the Boy Scouts I had to learn to tie a bowline from you

[@juliepura4976]

There’s an old adage they teach us in rigging school so that we remember how to tie the bowline correctly! It goes like this “ the rabbit comes out of the hole, goes around the tree and then goes back down the hole!! And that’s how you remember to tie a bowline knot !!

[@Xacerbated]

Ugh I really need to watch all your knot videos and just sit down and practice them over and over until I can remember them. Knots are my weakness 😂

[@hiltonfritsch3939]

Slip knot bowline... fantastic. No more "habits and trees". LOL

[@MJA5]

definitely worth practicing - you want to have this one down

[@albertvincent1314]

Nice and simple

[@user-mm1pc9bd3w]

Practise tying the Bowline around your waist with one hand only. Once learned never forgotten.

[@IowaSheepdog]

I appreciate these videos. Thank you.

[@adkvoyageur]

Corporal Magic!

[@jayfree3257]

This is very helpful! - while you’ve done this (knot) thousands of times on your videos (which rock!!) - the angle is hard to see, at times, and these 3 perspectives (free-hand, branch, on body) are helpful for seeing and Replicating to practice !! Thanks!

[@joshuabomar6974]

Bowline for the win. Thank you Crpl Kelly.

[@alaskankare]

there is a mariners version where you wrap it around you arm and do it one handed. I never learned it, but fire chief loved showing off he could. basically so you can tie around yourself if you are in the water after falling overboard.

[@allendobbs8055]

Great knot ! Thanks Corporal.

[@TotemPoleOfCare]

Funny how some things come full circle. I found you channel several years ago when I wanted to learn to tie a trucker's hitch. Liked your presentation so I watched some of your other videos. I have fallen in love with your channel. Keep up the good work, Corporal!

[@recall5811]

yet never subbed to me in all those years

[@TotemPoleOfCare]

Uh, I thought I was. I get all the notifications when you post a new video. I've bought several items from your amazon store, bought a few when you were affiliated with Self Reliance Outfitters, I tried to buy one of the forks off your Etsy store but you cancelled the order because you didn't like the way they turned out.

[@johnovanic9560]

To quote a guy on KZbin easy peasy lemon squeezy

[@sharonmccomas4173]

Thank you so much Corporal’s Corner I love learning this. Thank you Sir

[@sling3lade791]

Thats so dope, thank you for that . something simple as a basicknot just made my day.

[@Surefootsurvival]

Short, straight to the point….dig it👊🏻

[@mattnobrega6621]

Easy peezy lemon squeezy. Time to go practice. Thanks for breaking it down barney style 😎👍

[@mr_sendit7]

I like the last example.

[@1974heathinn]

I am renewing my dedication to skills learned as a kid in Boy Scouts including knot tying. The bowline has for some reason come with the most mental block.

[@mikeremski2102]

It's one of the easiest, but it can be done in "a thousand different ways". Try a bunch of ways, one will click for you. Work with that, then the other ways make sense.

[@donnywilkes6417]

Good to know.

[@perfectweather]

Great video, thanks 👍

[@reignofchaos6463]

Numm. Nummm.. numm here to feed the algorithm

[@captainscarlet6758]

I like this method as the rope is tight around the body. 👍

[@Noway673]

I've got your notification 😊.

[@apar1560]

Cool ! 🙌🙌🙌

[@rtb7538]

Thankyou Cpl, can you put out a similar vid on the truckers hitch? That thing does my head in! 🤯

[@waynehendrix4806]

You know where the rabbit goes!!!

[@maxpinson5002]

Something everybody should know

[@MichaelR58]

Cool 😎

[@jimbo9606]

tied a bowline knot at work the other day..... my boss: very few craftsmen left in this world. me: it's just a bowline. my boss: most of these guys can barely tie their shoes. LMAO! THANX Corporal...." I LEARNED IT FROM WATCHING YOU!" 😂😂😂😂

[@waynehendrix4806]

😆

[@davidwright5580]

Another killer video as always

[@these.wild.valleys]

Who knew it was that easy! Perfect short.

[@abrahamreyes4535]

Quick

[@tonyelbows8045]

dammit that was brilliant!!

[@scottcatchot1598]

learned a new way, thanks

[@user-ft1xf8wk9m]

THANKS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@susiestogsdill5075]

I will finally commit to practice this

[@kalstreksandtrails7606]

Outstanding A.F video

[@matthewmarsicano5301]

Easiest wat to tie it I've ever seen

[@SoloRenegade]

you can also do the one-handed tying it around yourself.

[@quinntheeskimooutdoors6234]

😊thanks😊

[@dannyappleby703]

👍

[@SoloRenegade]

tons of uses for a bowline that isn't tied around something. great for securing the end of a ridgeline with a toggle for example.

[@recall5811]

so an overhand loop wont do that?

[@SoloRenegade]

@@recall5811 sure. but what's wrong with the bowline? Good to have options. The fact is, an assertion was made, and I refuted it. Bringing up the overhand knot doesn't change that.

[@elevatorman7750]

Great video buddy

[@1loquaciouslass3]

When tying the waist line, your movements were hilarious 😂 almost as saying if you don't get it, you're a moron, which you would be correct!

[@james0000]

Thanks for the recap video.

[@traumatech75]

Dude, love your content. You realize the old Boy Scout Manual has excellent how to drawings for all these knots?

[@user-hx9tp9cn2h]

Would you consider doing a similar presentation with the CLOVE HITCH? Thanks.

[@recall5811]

most sill cant seem to watch 2 min videos so probably not

[@sleazy1drache]

Knot nugget!

[@Noway673]

Videos are getting very short.😊 But I still enjoy them.

[@recall5811]

contact youtube and tell them to circulate

[@LawrenceFox-jx1fq]

[@tg1cent765]

Hell yeah!

[@xavyps8277]

good one!

[@guadalupeskitchen3734]

So instead of a short, you made a quickie. Lol

[@dianeandersen4106]

Hi

[@CD-xo5ju]

I used to be able to tie them in a few seconds behind my back- the way the rope is straight and u bend ur fingers around the rope in 1 motion / I used to do it the way u showed before I learned it faster

[@coyotesnipe]

I can tie it around my body real fast, just have to practice tying it the other ways,,,

[@Nomad.K]

Military or civilian these knots work

[@user-zk4sn8kq1g]

how do you untie it?

[@johnny30806]

The first way is the way I learned to tie it. Rabbit comes out of the hole, goes around the tree, goes back into the hole.

[@drrobert2120]

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@cb3391]

☕😉👍

[@MagnumArrowArchery]

💪🏽🇺🇸

[@jayfree3257]

Fuck yeah!

[@AlaskaDaveRR]

Yes, But can you tie the bowline one handed?

[@recall5811]

have several videos on it

[@davidfox2953]

How about the one handed method when you must tie a bowline around yourself!.

[@recall5811]

most couldnt watch this

[@paulcoote3094]

Biggest advantage is its easy to release.

[@hlopkloiop]

Round the tree, over the tree, run into the tree.....uh there was something about a rabbit I think. Oh yeah I was supposed to be tying a bowline oh well overhand knot works anyway.

[@unclehousy-leotardo]

The rabbit goes around the tree and through the hole
