i think people just slate expert village instinctively now, this is a pretty good tutorial, its exactly how I do it. You don't need a prusik if your experienced. If your not you shouldn't be doing it on your own, but thats pretty much common sense. If your stupid enough to try and rappel with this being the only tuition you've got, well... you were probably gonna hurt yourself at some stage anyway.

This is an awful tuition video which everyone should avoid. The only useful bit of advice is at the beginning "GO AND GET TUITION FROM AN EXPERIENCED ROCK CLIMBER".
