Good video, but… As a beginner I am watching this video very carefully and listening to every word that Graham is saying as I’ve never attempted to ring a bell up; the reason is that this video is the only one that I’ve found that describes what the student has to do, given that the teacher is participating also. At 6.24 Graham says “ as your hands are sliding down the rope” … What’s missing in this video, from a student standpoint, is the instruction to the student to slide his/her hands down the rope during the ringing up process. From a beginner’s point of view this is a ‘big picture’ video of a student ringing a bell up but it lacks the minute detail of what the student is required to do at each stage. In relation to the use of coils, I have not yet found a good video that shows their use in both ringing up and ringing down. As a beginner I would like to see videos of both ringing up and ringing down, with coils, in slow motion to enable me to understand what to do. There are several textual descriptions of the use of coils but nowhere can I find a video, in slow motion, of this.
Can someone tell me what would or could happen if someone entered a ringing chamber and pulled on a rope with the bell in the "up" position what dangers or injuries could occur?
Usually you take coils when you ring up, if you take coils and realise the bells up, you might not be able to release them quick enough which could pull you up off the ground
@@jayro5653 something similar happened in my local church, a guy did this and was still holding the rope when it happened and his legs went about halfway of the room height
Much admire your training skills Graham. Couldn't have done better myself (lol) Haven't met for some years now- maybe as long ago as the late 50's?
Cool video
Thank you very much for this
Thank you

@@christophersmith5509 man thats scary!! Do you think the bell can dislodge and come crashing down?
@@jayro5653 ikr, and I don’t think so no as they are attached properly so it wouldn’t happen
Its rare the fo
