@EveHook Trust me you dont want to do a stop from more than 100 ft in a dynamic rope it is like taking a huge fall and it can break if you go fast.... I do a 130 ft aussie and my 8 is super hot and an expert told me that if you dont take it out of the rope fast it can damage the rope on the spot you stop.. :)

I call that a superman jump watch my video

I crapped when you zoomed out 0_0

Not that point at which you want to realise you got the wrong length rope.

No that was a rap jump I have jumped off of 300 ft jumps yes he walked away alive and I am going to get a helmet cam video of me Jumping of this next year

i wonder how long it took before he pissed himself?
I used a rescue 8 that I bought at REI. Rescue 8 is larger so it doesn't get as hot. Rope did not melt and figure 8 was very warm but cool enough that I could remove it from the rope with my bare hands. Heat is mostly caused by friction while braking. I did not brake until about 50 feet from the ground so the figure 8 was not very hot. The problem is that it's VERY DIFFICULT to tell how close you are to the ground when you're falling that fast!

If I am doing a fast rappel, like in this video, I will always use a dynamic rope so that If I stop quickly, planned or not, I am much less likely to get hurt. You just have to make sure that you stop your rappel far enough from the ground, that when the rope stretches, you don't hit the ground too soon.

This was off the Rio Grande Gorge Bridge. About 12 miles North West of Taos.

Just so you all know, nobody died. You can't see the landing but it was controlled.

i used 2 dbi/sala tie off connectors, a new 10 mm dynamic rope, a yates assault harness with rear D-ring, a rescue 8 rappel device, and welding gloves.
have fun!!
be careful
