    While camping in the mountains there was a spot a rope was left to get across. This pretty big gap in the rock. Well whoever left it took it when they went back through. I was trapped on the far side. Another guy came up who was also trapped. But he knew how to make a grass rope. We did this and got out. Will never forget the power of grass rope.

      People can go to hell for scandal. CATECHISM OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH SECOND EDITION 2284: "Scandal is an attitude or behavior which leads another to do evil. The person who gives scandal becomes his neighbor's tempter. He damages virtue and integrity; he may even draw his brother into spiritual death. Scandal is a grave offense if by deed or omission another is deliberately led into a grave offense".
      Quotes from the bible: "Thou shall not murder" "God Is Love" "Thou shall not lust" "Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you" "God said: Let US make man in OUR image, after OUR likeness" "pray without ceasing" "beware false prophets" "do not be decieved" "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of Light" "I AM The Way, The Truth and The Life. No one comes to The Father except through me."
      Matthew 18 ►
      (New International Version) "At that time the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Who, then, is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?”
      He called a little child to him, and placed the child among them. And he said: “Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, whoever takes the lowly position of this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And whoever welcomes one such child in my name welcomes me."
      “If anyone causes one of these little ones-those who believe in me-to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea. Woe to the world because of the things that cause people to stumble! Such things must come, but woe to the person through whom they come!"

    one tip I'd add is don't start in the middle of your first bundle. you want one side to start out longer than the other so you're not having to add more grass at the same place on the rope. That helps keep the thickness more consistent

    I’ve seen an old guy in the desert in Rajasthan make a rope like this out of an old plastic feed bag, they cut it into 2 or 3 long strips and keep twisting and weaving it just like your technique. On its own the feed sack was weak as hell but the rope can be used to tether a camel, which is bloody strong.

  • @denimjez
    @denimjez 7 місяців тому

    You should try that with different thicknesses of grass or breaking down the stuff that's there to see if the finer the strands you start with the stronger or weaker your rope. I see twisting it already crushes the cellulose and removes air gaps. I think if you had a finer material you could compress it farther. Just crushing the structure a few times beween rocks or branches might make you able to grab and work with more material per handful. Either the rope would get smaller or you could add more material to make the same sized rope. Would this increase the strength, and if so how much?

    Plain grass can work, but it wont be ideal. The rope wont be as strong, will be messier and take way more of it. What you want is either Wild Wheat or Reed Grass. Like what he used in the video. Green Briar Vines are ideal, just trickier to find it and you have to deal with the thorns on them. But, knock them off and you got a decent Rope that may even last longer. Or, keep the Thorns on and wrap the vines around a Fence if you want to try and keep animals like Coyotes out.
