Zero degree harness - Spanish Bowline

My Manfrotto camera stand needed some extra weight to balance. I used a Spanish bowline knot to tie in my Harbor Freight anvil. Thanks to Lee @allyouneedpromos for the trade.

Brent, you are totally welcome for the gear! As we talked about, I've been a fan/supporter of your inventions for right at 5 years. All started with the kickstarter for the gravity hook. So many other great items and so much useful knowledge on your videos. I cant remember them all, so they are saved haha -Lee

[@MarioDallaRiva]

Bravo 👏🏻 I’d like to hear about the bowline pronunciation 👍🏻

[@zecuse]

There's a far simpler and faster process of tying the 2nd method that doesn't have you fighting the line with a bunch of flipping: 1. Hold the middle of the line draped over your index and middle fingers and pinching with your thumbs, palms are up, we're not using our ring or pinky fingers. 2. Cross the ends and use your thumbs (nail side) to pull a bite up through the middle. 3. Hold the middle of the line with the middle fingers as you reach your index fingers around the cross and flip the bites into loops. 4. These loops will lay on the cross which you can pull through the loops with your index fingers and thumbs. 5. Release the middle of the line from your middle fingers and pull the cross lines apart to tighten everything up.

I have always wondered what a good application for the Spanish Bowline was. Thanks for making such a practical video.

[@williamharshman9572]

I am jealous! You have done something I have always wanted to. You make useful things and provide knowledgeable videos that are easy to understand. Thank you.

Bowline vs bowline?

Thanks, Lee.

4:51 -- This is the biggest box I've ever received. Because it's Texas! :)

I'm always self-conscious when I say bowline, because one way you run the risk of people thinking you're a pretender noob, the other way they think you're a pretentious wanker. Being neither a sailor nor a soldier nor a climber nor an angler, but just a knot enthusiast, I never know what to say...

[@threeriversforge1997]

I pronounce it Bow - line, like the bow of a ship. That's where it was used, according to legend, when they'd tie a bowline in the end of a rope and throw it to the pier where it could be slipped over a bollard or cleat to secure the vessel. Of course, it's real easy to fall back on the more common "bowl"in pronunciation since that's the common way of saying it even if it's the more vulgar way. 😁

[@jakestrait6296]

Same. And I need that pronunciation video

[@kodfkdleepd2876]

Could you modify it so that the free end can work to easily adjust the size while other end is used for tensioning?

[@panluca7085]

Nice. Do i see tan paramax ?

[@davidmcgowan3243]

What is the model of that camera arm? Looking for something similar.

[@vowki9465]

Where can I get one of these stands from

[@ToddNZMTB]

04:24 it's Caro _line_ , Brian 😆

[@knormie]

Don't get that wrong, 'cause they're gonna drill ya

[@bartekguz9371]

4:25 yes

[@PamOrl]

How about using Asher’s Equalizer? It constantly “self-levels”.

[@GlueChickeN10]

For Pete's sake please make the "other" video

[@raymondsanchez808]

What's the type/brand of coyote tan cord hank you have there?

[@First_Class_Amateur]

1/4” paramax

[@pauldanielmooney]

I think I've been tying it wrong this whole time. Mine's fixed. Not adjustable.

[@Edwin-pq6dg]

First a pretzel ,then back through the middle to create a moth ..

[@yetinother]

No audio?

[@yetinother]

I'm getting audio after reload now

[@waytospergtherebro]

Most people just throw a sandbag on a C stand and call it a day.

[@plato4ek]

Yeah I want to know why "bowline" and not "bowline" :)

[@kraklakvakve]

Some even call it a "bowline"! I couldn't believe it when I first heard it. That's too far, IMO.

[@caseyryan228]

Technically any pronunciation is acceptable but it does come from the bow of a ship though no one says it like that. The way you say it is how I prefer but it all depends on how lazy or fast the speaker is speaking.

[@mikemccann8822]

I use a kettlebell, it’s easier

[@69adrummer]

Sorry dude....gotta add a piece of critique here... it's NOT a "bow-line" ............it is a "bow-lynne" as well as it is NOT a PRUU-sic but a "pruh-sic"

[@neo123rej]

Could you tell us why? BTW Prusik is German. In German the u is pronounced like 'oo' in english. So The pronunciation of pruusik is closer to being correct then Pruh-sic.
