That technique is the most efficient way for beginners that I have used. Don't listen to these yanks, they don't have a clue. Every video that I've seen that has shown dangerous belay techniques been by a yank.

he let go of the dead rope...

No a bad technique, works for some and it's safe.

rightey O Govna

@huyiy Yes, you are correct. My point is, although there is not THAT much of a difference, there are no pros (other than habit) with doing it as in the video, and slightly better turning your hand. I did not say his technique is unsafe, only that there is a better way.

@Soundislate did i not say "in break position" ?? i quote: "but the friction created around the ATC when in break position.. "
-
@huyiy Yes, but you have to hold the rope in break position. If you for some reason get caught off-gaurd I would think (I don't have statistics) you would get a firm grip more easily with your thumb up
-
@Soundislate strength of your fingers is not what holds your climbers fall but the friction created around the ATC when in break position..

stupid

WARNING!! This is not the safest way of belaying. You should turn your left hand so the thumb is up when holding the dead rope.The reason is that your thumb is stronger than your little finger, making it easier to hold if the climber falls when your right hand is off the rope. (I prefer to keep my left hand turned this way all the time)

WARNING!!!
This technique will get you kicked out of my gym. If you're reviewing technique i recommend you find a video of a technique that is more universally accepted.
