I'd like to see how the woman in this video is belaying the climber. Is she merely holding on with her hands???!!! We had a fatality of an experienced mate aboard the Schooner Appledore here in Key West last week for exactly that reason. His gf had the skin flayed from both hands when she couldn't hold his weight free hand. I've been climbing masts and doing masthead work for over 25 years.
