Hi all

Thank you for all the comments.

It's much more fun, to upload a movie when people share their comments.

The movie was made in Spain, during a climbing tour with some friends.

All the gear is our own.

Have fun

Best Regards

right, so when you're all done swinging and just hanging beneath a bridge... then what?!

[RasmusBroDK]

Then we undo the ties at the bridge, and slowly slacks the rope. All the gear, used in this small movie, is normal climbing gear.

@RasmusBroDK Nice one dude - the mother of all bridge swings this is! Check out my first attempt at a bridge swing partly inspired by your video :D

@RasmusBroDK Pal,.. thanks for the info on gear,.... Now I'm a bit curious about dynamic rope,... how many times can you use the same double line before its absorbing attribute is over? Calculating the percentage of stretching is such a major responsability ,... What if, for a minor challenge (1/4 of yours) I use a static rope with some sort of shock absorver, like a automotive spring attached between to apline butterfly knots? Do you think it could work? Well, cheers anyway . JM

[JMEBF]

Man I tell you this,.. it was absolutely awesome. Please share with us the specifications of the gear you used. By the way, you did not seem to have much air in your lungs to scream it out loudly enough,... :) Cheers!!!
