It is called a cable way and is a tool experienced rope access technicians and cavers (I am also a caver with 30-yearas exp) use for raising, lowering, hauling and rescue work. Glenn Sandell

Hey, what's the point of the third line pulling him away from the building? I've used a third line that I tied very taut in order to have something to hold me in towards the building while pressure washing, but I've never needed to be pulled away like the dude in your vid. Please enlightin me!
