On Rope with CMFM
United States
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 18 พ.ย. 2011
First and foremost I am a cave surveyor and a vertical caving junkie. Any of the vertical ropework videos you see on this channel are based on SRT (Single Rope Technique) a method of vertical cave access fine tuned by Americans to explore the deep caves scattered all over the United States. We also call this Indestrucable Rope Technique due to the ropes we used made primarily by Pidgeon Mountain Industries (PMI). I also enjoy hiking, rappelling cliffs from time to time, and just all around exploring. Not every video may excite you, but the ones that do, I hope you enjoy. This is my story................
Mammoth Cave leads in high water Pt 2 / 2
St Patrick's day weekend 2024 at Mammoth Cave National Park. My team and I returned to the Ozark Dome to continue surveying the lead found at the top of the dome and continue pushing into the unknown. Unfortunately a significant amount of rain fell whigh put the river at base level up quite a bit. The fast current made for difficult travel and we were not able to stay out as long as we had hoped. Honestly I thought the low air on the way in would be sumped shut. This is part 2of 2.

We broke the 5 mile mark in the length of the cave with this day's survey trip up Bipolar Passage. As you can see this was a low wet stream that we pushed to the end on New Years Day. 2 other teams were in the far reaches of this cave pushing other leads out. Part 2 of 2

I just couldn't trust rope to that extent. Even if there was redundancy I still couldn't do it. Wow!!
3000ft 1000mtr 1km 250 storeys building.
Days with ropes....Alex Honnold spent 1 hr 30 minutes without rope...
Everyone here are in full orgasm. The problem is that risking your life for absolutely no return other than your own EGO is not only vain but also non-constructive, useless and extremely primitive!!! Do something useful instead of trying to get attention from others by risking your life! Get psychological help imbecile!
Nope
imagine repelling down this wall and 10 meters from the bottom you realize you're out of rope and have to climb back up.
It's blowing my mind how far out from the rock face he is! Nothing to cling to if things go bad, although I'm not sure it would help in this instance if there was something to claw at. 😮
How much does a 2700' rope cost?
Bruh, you can fuck right off with that shit. Hell naw
"cause I'm a big pussy": some dude about to rappel down el capitan
well, my hands aren't dry anymore 😅 this is amazing
So I can top rope Yosemite? 😂😂
Best part you can cook lunch at the bottom with the descender.
this is like zipline but more boring
As a level 3 rope access technician who has done drops on 800ft structures, this is insane to me. There is just so much that could go wrong.
⭐Crazy is as crazy does!🙃👎
this is dumb
i always assumed that climbers rapped down in stages and that there like 7 or 8 anchor points on el cap.
❤❤
That rack must have got a bit warm😂
naiCE
Honnold def calling you a pu$$y
Amazing how that was solo climbed without a rope. Dude called himself a pussy, I want to give him props! That takes balls going over a ledge like that
Oh my fucking god id be dead from fear before even making it to the halfway point. Fuck that shit. Congratulations on not dying my guy. Im surprised you didn't hit the ground faster from the weight of the balls you have to do this shit.
2650 foot nope-rope
What’s the price for up?
50 feet of rope you should probably get a lost and rope. Try to catch it with a flare 256,000 feet of rope
I think it’s faster repelling don’t do that slower peeling feet and height 260 feet
So I think it is gonna be a 256 but longer 5000 feet for sure not good
Maybe not because of repelling we see the passage
Oh that’s cool but if you try to do something like 250 feet that’s probably 256,288 feet
This was in floyd collins crystal cave, the one with the steel door?
No it would be the Sand cave, which also connect to the Frozen Niagara cave
Natural not true maybe rope 256 feet +76, 5000 feet not good
must suck to try and find the middle on that rope.
this is scarier than free solo climbing up to me for sure (free solo more skill and technique obv, but this is scary bc just 100% on rope/gear trust / out of your control fr)
Dude thank you!!!!
Am i the only one who hoped he made a mistake playing with clips and fell? I can imagine.
Yes you sociopath
Papa just called he wants to know why you spent 7,000.00 on rope this time. Your allowance was 5k for each week we told you. Now papa will be mad. When you get back this time we need to get serious aboit you getting a job your 45 now still living at home. Lol.
What happens when mum and papa fund your life. You go climb mountains for kinks. When you are never hungry or worried about rent you can waste time playing on rocks.
Stupidity at its finest here. Putting way to much trust in ropes.
Mike. You don't have a clue what you are talking about. Ever climbed? Of course not. You're probably an armchair pussy.
Ropes are assumed to hold your weight, plus one pound more! 😅
Would love to see some longer videos!
So neat
Imagine all the time you’d have to wish this wasn’t actually happening if you fell. Pass out, wake up- you’re still falling. What a nightmare
And this is why when they get injured or die…..the family suffers the southern blues
So am I the only one wondering what's up there?
Nope....I was hoping to see the view also........this is ozark ......Hoosier? Where are we Toto.....Arkansas , Missouri , are there ozark mountains in Indiana?
If they ain’t seen again that would be spooky
Legend has it, they're still up there, waiting for this video to upload...
I LOVE THE WAY YOU SAID "OH IM GOING UP THERE" 🤣 like a little kid that it doesn't if you say no, they going
You can literally see the scratchmarks of peoples' fingernails at 3:00
Great video!!!
Doing this for fun with out a purposeful mission objective is insane
