These are five of the seven knots taught in Scouts BSA (overhand is not taught, but it is understood). The only ones missing are 2-half hitches and the timber hitch, plus the rolling hitch is called a taut-line hitch in Scouting. Good to see practical uses for the knots in actual industry, thanks.
Excellent video! My wife worked on set as an AC for a while, and the first time I ever heard the term “bowline” was because a grip told her it was one of the best knots to learn. Now I know why!
The two have a lot in common and most grips I worked with, we all had a copy of the Backstage Handbook. Great resource.

Amazing ! Gotta grab any rope or string and watch it again and again practicing it live ! This kind of techniques can be so useful also to compensate lack of adequate gear ! Thanks a ton !
Thanks ... caused flashback as teenager when was in Sea Scouts (nautical version of BoyScouts) and never really learned the knots. Probably explains why I never advanced !
And it's a little orange. That's actually from a small par lamp with 1/4 CTO on it. Otherwise that door is flat and boring. See our episode on CTO gels where we add that background light.it was probably a bit hot though.

Googled “how to tie a rope to things” and this is exactly what I needed 😂🙏
I was looking up some knots that could come in useful for stage tech, it’s nice to see what the two different mediums have in common!

Grab #8 or 10 cotton sash cord as that's commonly used on set.Most hardware stores have it.
“well she’s a grip now” 😂 amazing
You are sooo good🎉
Finally new video !!
Yes, sorry. I was really delayed on this one.
this is amazing. Thanks!
Thank you! Very clear
Good video this is really good stuff to know. My favorite is the Slip Knot and I use The Cleat Hitch, Rolling Hitch, Double Half Hitch, on the boat.
You have a boat! When are we coming over?

That's near Disneyland. Manu goes there all the time. We're both up in the Bay area. We may have to pay you a visit.

Did not know about the Sea Scouts. That must have been fun.
There's a hot spot on the door over your Left shoulder... fire the grip. LOL

The Dutch Bowline (end outside) is a little better.
