Someone with a broken weed eater and a belt tensioner came up with a unique ascender but not for me. Safety duck would have a load to hold....7 years ago I hope your still safe
There’s probably a safety option to still be able to go down I’m sure of it. I can’t imagine it would pass any safety inspection if you got stuck 100ft in the air 😅
FYI That's not what a shunt is used for. Shunts aren't designed to take shock loading and will break in scenarios like this. Your still alive because you've never been dependant on that shunt catching your fall.
At the top of the rig I see a few different knots creating the anchor (alpine butterfly, figure eight). Do you have a close up picture or a name for the anchor? Looks interesting, want to learn more about it.

What kind of a shit show is that entire setup? Why don't they have a permanent station that they can access from the top like other stadiums? I am not sure I want to rope up to that mess, but I love the machine. In the past, we used Jumar Accenders to hoist our way up using our arms and legs. By the time I would get up to the top, I was covered in sweat and completely burned out. I like this machine, kind of a hand-held elevator.
idk much about stadiums, never been in one,but from what little i know, they're built in different times,different areas,with different regulations and rules,and a saying i heard "an architects dream is an engineers nightmare and an engineers dream is an architects nightmare" meaning the designer hates the builders limits and rules and the builder hates the designers asinine and unnecessary idiotic ideas. ergo i guess a combination of everything especially the last part where some dipshit was like "we need a clear ceiling view" (because THAT'S where you look...right....) and the builder couldn't find a code or be bothered and just made it that way...happens a lot in construction which my dad did for a few decades professionally... nothing as big as stadiums mind you,but still big houses and architects are always involved as are the people building those ideas.
Cant you put another pulley at floor level and tie a rope to the hitch of a pick up and have the pick up driver drive away to get up there? Seems like it would be a lot easier. XD
Are you actually gonna keep doing that, buddy? How many points we gotta do like this? We only need the point on a tool, not a man to make it. Sheesh! The rope is already up there!!
Jesus, petrol in close proximity to nylon rope 🤦🏻♂️ Not least a hot engine. Got to be the worst powered ascender design of all time 😵 Shunt is not a back up device 👎🏻

How do the ropes get up there anyway? Somebody must have been up before to put the ropes there?
the ropes have to be there for safety purposes. it would be unsafe for the climber if there weren't ropes there...
@@nicholasjohnson9694 He asked how the ropes got there. Not why they are here.
Same way the steel cables on top got there.
Its a cable system just untie the rope and ur ready.they install it during construction.sometimes u got to install ur own safety rope
Yep ya tie onto the beam anyway ya can.
Now that is just downright convenient.
When you hear a weed eater and someone repeating “I’m Batman” for 5 minutes straight.
My question is, how does the ropes get up there in the first place
Putting a lot of faith in that machine. Even with the secondary line.
At 2:21 did he take off his safety? Or is another one of the cords also got a safety?
we are using one called a raptor and we run a saftey back up on the petrol motor as well as our back up
Yes I took the safety off. I edited out now .
Level 4 technique!
are you using shunt for safety?
seems crazy to me to work that way
buy an asap or even a rocker
great view by the way
look closer

This is awesome. I wonder if I would be allowed to use it in my field. They should have a battery powered one.
They do, they are used on wind turbines a lot. And they often use battery powered one.

How you put the First robe on that fixing point up there. Do you use a slingshot or somthing?
The locals bum shuffle across the beam to put it in.
so where do you sign up for this type of job?
Shunt as a backup!?
it's still usable

Get a rope access ticket
New ride at Disney!!!!!!!!!
You can use a prussic knot and just use your legs to go way faster with just a single repel line. This is the Milwaukee version of rope climbing.
Unrelated, but I'm wondering what is in the seats? Or are they different color seats?
This was for the National Day event in Singapore?
Yes it was.
using a combustion engine for this device seems insane lol
How you can keep calm while swinging on a rope at that heights ?
A very good trust in the system supporting you.
Trust in your equipment
What happens if you run out of gas at the top? Can you still use it to get down safely?
There’s probably a safety option to still be able to go down I’m sure of it. I can’t imagine it would pass any safety inspection if you got stuck 100ft in the air 😅
Just have to do it manually like you would without the machine.
niiiiiice! incredible view

Dangerous i had a buddy fall at the astro dome back in the late 70s rigging for ZZ TOP he was lucky it was 40 ft broken back broke arm
What happens if you run out of gas mid way threw?
I carry extra equipment. I can either abseil down or climb up with a cam device.
where were you the entirety of this video?
also, how did you get your rope up to those cables in the first place?
Singapore stadium. Center on the rigging hub.
the Chain hoists where connected before the rigging went up. So when the hub was lifted .We sent someone up with some ropes.
Can that thing pull a logging chain from a 2 ton for 100 feet? in a minute?
When it 40°C with 90 humidity. 330ft roof
