One handed munter hitch - (marginally) higher quality

EDIT: I've uploaded a high definition version here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vo-58f7cF_o

Tying a one handed munter hitch directly on the carabiner, from a hanging rope. While the carabiner is still open, clip it to your harness. The load strand (the one going up) should be against the spine of the carabiner, and the brake strand should exit out the back of the carabiner. The spine should be on same side as your brake hand. (I'm right handed, obviously)

These were shot with a terrible digital camera, but I think they get the technique across.

Is this an instructional video?, just a bit too fast for the learner.

Ah, great move there with the carabiner. That's a standard in my book now!
