Make Rope from Plastic Bags (without tools)

[file83]

After this video he suffocated on a plastic bag and died. There will be no more videos.

[neocon70]

I watched the whole video and at the end I seen many related plastic bag videos. I then realized I am on that weird place on youtube again.

[mikecowpg]

Seems like Samuel is a pro at everything except for making videos...

[tjenator]

Love it, where's the rest?

[billistics]

DUDE. THIS IS FUCKING SICK.

[SimdudeS]

I liked it, but the video didn't have to be 6 min long. Could have been 3.

[genmama1955]

Yooohoooo. Anybody home? It's been two years, man. When's the next video coming out?

[Maper555]

"stay tuned in this series where we'll learn more...etc etc"

1 video...-.-

WTF

update us on the length of that bag rope biiittch

[destinyrules909]

Thats pretty cool! I want to start doing that but i use my plastic store bags as trash bags maybe in the future. Thumbs Up to this video!(:

[iSienBBY]

I like how he says "Good Job"

[08yannch]

good job :D

[reginafromrio]

mmm he has ravenwood wine.

[TheCalebpoole]

how much can it hold

[videosbythe5]

Need this to make crop circles!

[mooncat1965]

@gentlefem Yes! I used to be a girl scout leader, and one of the most successful craft projects we ever did was making jump-ropes from plastic bags. We just had the girls wrap masking tape around the ends for handles (they were all under 10 years old), but if you wanted to get fancy I'm thinking two 6 inch lengths of dowel rod and a couple fishing swivels would do the trick.

[valzheart]

no job, eh? good idea though:) I got tons of those in my garage, wanna buy em?

[codydorman420]

@valzheart hahahahahhahahahahahahaha

[5DMMC]

this guy is smart and cute XP

[lovesardbeg]

So, where are your next videos? coudn't find them under samuelthepro. Thanks for this one, though. It was great!

[HazeraForth]

This is brilliant!  Thanks!

[jpjdo1212]

could i use this to make a hammock or tie a hammock?

[kitsurubami]

@jpjdo1212 totally. sorry for the 2month late response. send me a private message if you want me to explain or make a video on how to make a hammock.

[sprusbdwrm]

At the end of the video you mention that you wait until plastic bags "pile up" at your house and then add them to the rope. Why are the bags just piling up at your house?? You're forgetting the "reduce" part of the 3 Rs - stop buying the plastic bags in the first place. Use cloth :)

[KuddlyBoy]

hahahaahaha what a wonderful way to waste a couple of hours! :D Love it!

[retropacgirl]

Could you braid 3 ropes together to make a stronger on and what would you use it for

[MrHoustonsk8er]

@retropacgirl lol tie it on a tree and swing

[Heavenlysedated14]

That is a neat recycling idea!

[CreditonJules]

What a fantastic idea! A great tutorial thank you - looking forward to the next one!

[tyty69able]

cool! thanks for the idea

[waellerbe]

This is a VERY creative idea that I can put into practice. It's such a blessing to learn about various crafts.

[uzerofutube]

GREAT!

[gigologt]

GOOD JOB MATE. !!!!

[CakadaOokamiko]

This is a great idea. Practical, with many uses, and can be used to show both the wastefulness and resourcefulness of people. Now I have some way of storing my grocery bags (I don't produce enough trash to recycle them as trashbags).

[Karletto555]

when you pull apart both seams you can use it as a diaper

[NancyToday]

Very nice Sam. I thought you were going to connect the bags into long lines, then twist them, then put them together and twist them the other way. That's how I make rope.

[LousyNose]

Great! Thanks man

[bbarnett4511]

0:20 he said series but if u look up he only has 1 video!!!:)

[RaNdOm4RaWrZ]

I use the 2nd step to connect rubberbands to make a rope

[WolfJackson67]

Very very good

[100percentgradeA]

trippy rug

[JackAttack901]

very nice footwork chap...... what can this rope be used for?

[oneMAKESaDIF]

thumbs up!!!

[youlneverfindout87]

so can this b used 4 bow strings?

[faraday0120]

Okay, ready for the next video! LOL Love the rope! The video was great!

[thealf101]

5 stars for the idea

[teyacapan]

great job with the feet......... never thought of it but down here in mexico jails they use the plastick bags instead of electrical tape when working with wires for electrisity....

[tntntntx]

Our Webelo Scouts will be doing this project to earn their Craftsman Requirement. GREAT IDEA! Thank you!

[spiderpig85]

Dude this works so well! One more tip: To make it nicer looking, take a lighter to it (carefully) and get rid of some of the loose bits.

[teyacapan]

@spiderpig85 Gotcha!

[adamschaloff2007]

I love that you're using your feet to braid the rope. I use my feet when I braid hemp lol.

[jamarabee]

Good idea! I have always crocheted plastic bags (I made totes, huge mats for the kitchen and lots and lots of purses) but I never tough of rope!... Extremely clear explanation, and I loved the strenght test!!!!!

[girlgolite]

sweet! will start my rope today. thank you for sharing :-)

[hurjaheikki]

[moyboysoy]
