The best part of you is ....you start your riddles questions very fast without taking much time...not like others
Totally agree. No silly rambling like other videos.
Other TH-camr: Hello guys this is your lovely TH-camr back with new video... Today we will see some questions and blaa blaa blaa😂😂😂
Best idea
Break top floor window
.
.
.
Go down to first floor by stairs
.
.
.
.
Jump from first floor
Haha nice..
Thats what i was thinking,and he says to think outside the box
This was my solution too #outsidethebox
Or just call in ur private helicopter
Genius!
"You thinking what I'm thinking?" "Aim for the bushes?"
I was thinking about slingshot 😂🤣
To people who are saying, to reach 2nd hook by stairs, do listen carefully he said,"you are trapped on top of a building". Y'all know meaning of trapped. 😂😂
WT Fable And somehow he turned up with a solution to the problem. Why can’t the doodle hang from the first hook and break a window, get inside and use the stairs?
Hugo de Andrés there is the possibility of there being locked doors
@@deathcomes1653 why so negative
Jagdeep Singh because you would want to think of all possible outcomes before actually wasting your chance
@@deathcomes1653 then there is also a possiblity of falling down from the building because of a loose rope🤣
I thought cutting the building in 150 meter and 50 meter parts first,,
That's my out of the box thinking 😎.
That was very "out of the box", you deserve to get *out of this planet*
Hhahaha
You will need a bigger knife!
😂😂😂😂
@@vaandor1 not with patience!
*Slowly cuts building*
There was exit door is closed. But, I can use steps right..! So, will come to the 2nd hook by steps and then from there i will come down by using 2nd hook and rope. I don't want to use knife and all..😂
I mean he can also jump 2-3 m also
I thought this is what hes gonna say.
He said, "you are trapped at the roof of building".
You almost got it... Just think a little bit further, if u can go to the second floor, why can’t you get into the lobby, find and break that stupid door with your knife.
By doing that, you got a free rope which u can post it on EBay and sell it to mathematicians who need it.🤣🤣🤣
There is no door at mid this is a logical question bro try to figure out not to fucking out 🤣🤣🤣 lol
I knew the answer but your way of approach made me feel the answer I knew is not the answer! Simple creative and logical approach! Thank you... 😊
My solution was to tie the rope to 1st hook and come down and tie its end to the second hook then go up to about 7th floor and cut the rope and swing safely to the ground like Tarzan lol
I thought same.
Me too 😂
Just make a loop on one end of 150 m rope, stuck the hook into the loop n slide down to 100 m ledge, shook the rope n the loop will hop out of the hook since no weight is hangin' on it, now stuck the loop in the 100 m hook and slide down. Also their are few knots which are tight when weight is hanging on it and becomes loose as it slacks.
Fun fact: It can be done without knife and without that extra 50 m long rope
The Bowline is a strong knot...holds well and unties easily.
There are many others...
Yea you try wipping out a 100 meter rope from a hook. You have no idea how hard that is. Fun fact: you're not as smart as you think.
@@Kaasbaas045 another fun fact: you're arnt not as smart as you think I R. 🤷
@@Kaasbaas045 I didn't just gave one possible way, wriggling it out may seem hard but it's a possibility, other than that their are types of knots which comes loose as weight is taken off, example of which a guy gave in above reply. Nobody here is proving or disproving anybody's smartness, it's a riddle try finding your way of solution
@Subaru Natsuki Sure, but their are knots which work on any type of hooks
2:27 I mean that's an easy way to get out of the problem... Oh that's what it's for...
Lol
You don't need to solve your problem if you're dead 😉
Actually when you tie the rope on hook and make loop you will loose many meters. So small injury is possible.
No. If he makes a loop just 20m then he will remains with the rope..
Me thinking outside the box: how about using the knife to threaten someone to open the door!! 😅😅
thanks for not being clickbait and making 20000 minute long videos on something that takes less than 5 :) supporting to spite brightside
I had extremely idea....
How about not cut rope
Use like bungge after connect rope and 2nd hook. Back to top and swing to bottom by point 2nd hook
I just taught about this only 😂
* Dark Souls death noise * YOU DIED
@@roberth4395 no we won't If we cut rope to 49 m we can easily swing on that
The thing is
It's risky
But still if so it's possible
Can't I use the hanging method at the hook itself then I can gradually release the rope lowering my self then using it again no need of knife
Its really easier than the way u say;we can even lad down from 300m above
explanation:cut the rop along its length,u get two pieces of 150m each,i hope u undestand it
But such a kind of ropes fail before you reach the ground.
@@jagadeeshgurana4490its uust logical..i mean theoretical,even the question in such a thing,may i know which building of 200m of height does not hv an elavator or stairs??
l see these videos to solve real life problems. These videos are super handy for real life problem.
You don't have a measuring tape..
How would you measure the rope to cut in appropriate lengths ?? 🤔
By geometrically measure it like: folding the rope into 3 symmetrical pieces, and the cut one of the folding. Then you'll have a pair of 100M and 50M rope.
@mohit0512 less people on our planet have good quality Brain
Without reading other comments yet, I would tie off the rope at the top and bring it to the bottom middle section
Tie off and cut off the excess and climb back up the rope and tie the remaining piece at the top- than, untying the hundred foot length, and climbing down the 50-foot rope, with The Hundred-Foot rope end, over my shoulder
Than tying the hundred foot length into a loop, at the bottom of the 50 foot length, and then climbing down both hundred foot length halfs..
And just pulling the excess, untied end through the hook loop I made in the bottom of the 50 foot / leftover rope.
No measuring involved at all..!
@@darengauthier522 Do you climbed the 100meters (328,084 foot) rope even once in your life? You would fall down and die atleast 10 times during all those things which you mentioned.
U explained very well👏👏👏
Won't the rope become smaller if u make noose?
There is a knot called a sheepshank used in sailing and mountaineering where you can tie the knot and cut the central strand. As long as the rope is under tension it won't slip. When you reach the landing, a flip of the rope will release the tension and the rope will fall down. You will only lose about a foot of rope that will remain tied to the first hook. Repeat the procedure and you can reach the ground and walk away with approximately 148 feet of rope.
Very nice puzzle.
Exellent graphic explanation.
In these kind of videos, the grafics is VERY important factor!!
Ty for nice video.
Dear Tamir... thanks for the appreciation. I really feel motivated with such recognition.
Nice comment
Best way he could have tied the rope on his waist and hold the rope on the other end passing on hook..slowly slowly he can release the rope from other end and could slide down to second hook and again repeat the same procedure or he can tie the end of one side to hook and slide down to bottom safely
Obviously that doesn't work mate.
You'll be left hanging 30m above the first ledge by the time you've lowered yourself as far down as you can and come to the end of the rope. What you're doing is just doubling over the rope, so you can only reach 70m down
Awesome puzzle and a superb answer...very good one sir
You could use a particular knot that requires constant pressure to get down so when it gets loose it falls off
That is best option...
Kamikaze knot :)
Your technique was very good and smart, also I had another idea how to get down with the rope even without the knife. First knot the rope on 1st hook, climb down to the second hook, hook the rope at the 100m length, climb up again to first hook, unknot the rope at the 1st hook and then just jump with the rope to the ground, you should be near the ground hmm. What do you think about this idea? But yes your idea was way more smarter
Personally I would have used the kamakaze knot method and still had like 140m of road at the end.
🤣🤣
You could also use the knife as an anchor on one end of the rope so it wont pass through your hook. Then lower yourself to the lower ledge. Then simply let go of the rope and the weight of the knife will pull the rope back through the hook. Then repeat to get down from second step. Its also faster in the event of an emergency rather than trying to measure exact lengths of rope to cut.
This will only work if the weight of the knife is greater than the weight of the 100m of rope hanging down the other side of the hook
@@matthewthompson6455 Who knows how big and heavy the knife is... In addition, there could be wind blowing the rope away while it is falling. Or you could be hit by the falling knife. At least you wouldn't be able to catch this fast-falling heavy heavy knife!
My idea was cutting the rope down its length to have 2 150m ropes half the thickness of the original one, as it was not specified how much weight can the rope carry
My answer is instead of cutting the rope and create the loop with 150 meter rope and use it from top to middle. And the. Use the knife to cut it or untie the loop to get the full rope back.
Fantastic sir
Very impressive...
You'll still be off by a meter or so due to the length of rope necessary to make the knot at the top and the loop at the bottom. So don't miss the drop to the hook!
So your body has to be at least one metter long?
@@phigis3179 I'm old. Falling more than a meter will likely still kill me.
Me:ill do what is on this vid
My brain:just jump
My useless side: just wait for people to come
Unravel the rope and then weave the fibers into a parachute. The knife will be useful with cutting the fibers to length and for making the final hems nice and clean.
.
Anyways, I came up with the stated answer, but it was a good 7-minute head scratcher!
.
Careful sizing of the loop in the upper line, and placement of a stopper knot in the 100-meter loop can make descent of the 100-meter loop somewhat safer. The idea is to prevent slippage of the 100-meter loop during downclimbing because it would be difficult to load both sides of the loop equally during the entire descent. The climber could favor the unstoppered side when they get tired, and tie a non-jamming knot between the strands to sit/stand and rest for a bit. Even with careful attention, the plan is very dubious considering the risks of fatigue and rope wear.
Got a question.how did you cut the rope cause there was no any measurements taking things..
Easiest way cut rope along the length you will have two rope of 150m length so it is easy 300m 😎
The problem is the rope cut along the lenght is Just a small scraps of material it was made of - ropes are braids of thinner ropes
Clever indeed, but I thought of another way, split the Manila Hemp rope, you would then have 300' to work with. But if you are only using one of those large rock climbing ropes, then you nailed it.
if they want this answer, 100 m rope us enough
Option 2, tie a 1-2 foot long loop in the top of the rope at the hook. Go down to mid ledge. Snap rope till it unhooks itself. Loop into second hook and continue down. This has the added benefit of allowing you to knot the rop itself to make it much easier to climb down without slipping and dying.
You are Great 👍.
Is swinging down off the table? I would have tied from top to second hook. Used extra 50 to tie a nice swing seat before I tied it to top hook. Once at second hook clim back up and get in seat, and undo the top hook and you swinging down to little above floor level
Just dangle the rope each side of the hook and wrap the rope around it self to prevent movement of the rope, And because the rope is 50m longer than needed when it is wrapped around it self it will most likely turn into a 100m long rope. Then when you are at the second layer unwrap the rope and just pull one side down and you still have a full length rope. then rinse and repeat as much as needed.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
This method has 2 advantages abouve the one showed in the video. First off keeping the rope integrity intact allowing for a much more controlled descent. Second you can scale down a mutch higher building.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Also a small plot hole in this demo's design if I got to that second floor I would just use the knife to break a window open and save myself in the process, then I could safely decently the building from the inside and do the same too another window on a lower level to make my escape.
Very nice "fuzzle"
I just feel sorry for the poor man's hands for sliding down a total of 200m rope.. that alone would make me reconsider wanting to go down
Plot twist: *How the hell did you end up in the rooptop of the building and Go down on edge of it?!*
U really thought out of box 📤📤
Just imagine there was a fire, but oh wait. The sides would have burned too lol haha
@@kalpratama but the fire started at the other side of the building
If i really struck on that building, i would ave jmped from the building like a superhero.😼
Very good Idea
In this method we actually don't require a knife at all.we can simply fold the rope to form 75m rope and put a knot over the 1st hook and then come to the 2nd hook where we can use the same method as we did with the 1st hook
No sharp edges
No extra instruments carried😉
santhosh sathish no you cant bevause the rope would effectivly 75 m long and you cant jump 25 meterw down from the first to the second hook!
Tie the knife to one end of the rope and use it to keep the rope on the top from slipping through the hook. Lower yourself down. Then ease up tension on the rope and the weight of the knife will bring the rope down to you through the hook.
hang rope from 1st hook.climb to the ledge.use 2nd hook and come down.
why do u need to cut the rope ?
Exactly, and the solution in the video doesn't work because he will be short to reach the first ledge by at minimum 1.5m
@@livedandletdie assuming you aren't made of glass, you can fall 1.5 meters.
Very easy u can come down without rope as well. This way not only time will be saved but a burden on Earth will also be lessened
I will open the rope (a rope is made up of 4 thinner ropes) and rearrange into 200M length...
Just think...when you make knot.. the rope size will be decreased... How you can come down.🤔..your answer is wrong....
at maximum,about a meter will decrease and who would be hurt from falling from a meter? if u do it on purpose
@@cartman7570 you can't prove it mathematically like hurt and fall etc. I think In Real time scenario no one will agree with that....may be.🤷🏻♂️
A man must be 1.5 meter so we have our height advantage
that rope length used by knot can be compensated with humans height.
@@hemchand688 remember that after landing you need to remove your knot at the other end and pull it...for this atleast the rope must be at chest level....
You should remove "safely" from the puzzle. Climbing down with a double rope through a loop doesn't feel very safe. You will have to hold both ropes of the double rope very tight or it will just slide through the loop and you will fall down for the remaining length of the rope.
Love this!
Doesn't knots consume 1-3 meters? With the 50meter rope you're making 2 knots at top and to hang 100 m one, doesn't both add upto sum 3 meter to knot! So total lenth will be 97m (47+50 )
You talk about working out the puzzle using with reverse engineering... I’m stuck on how a 200m tall building would be structurally sound when the average floor is about 20m tall (roughly 6x the size of a normal floor)?
Why can't I just form a loop with the 150 m rope to effectively use it as a 75 m long rope to get to the first ledge . Then unknot the looped rope and use it to get to the ground . Avoiding all the measuring and cutting?
Out of box question... I really liked it
U didn't mention if we were allowed to stand on the ledge.
It's kind of clearly depicted by the other side of that ledge being perfectly flush with the building
But I agree it was definitely something that slowed me down while considering options
My approach
Tie the rope at the first hook
Reach down till the second hook
Tie it there
Climb to the first hook
Cut the rope a few meter below the first hook
Take the help of gravity to reach the ground
Front door sealed, use back door then...
Why not just loop the rope around the first hook,slide down...remove the rope, loop it around the second hook...go home with 150mtrs of rope!
Because then the length of each side would be 75m
Not possible
@@dhruvtusir4531 u r correct
I like how this puzzle assumes I’m some sort of action hero who can simply climb down 200 meters of rope. I would fall to the ground immediately. Well, unless that 2nd hook impales me half way down.
I did it!
How about I use the rope to come to the ledge..break into the building through the window using the knife..go up and get the rope to the ledge and then use it again to reach the ground .There wont be no need of cutting the rope.
My idea was to tie the rope around the the knife, then put knife inside the hook (1st problem with my logic is that the hook needs to be smaller than the length of knife), then you create tension on the rope so knife is stuck in the hook (think of a grappling hook), descend down the rope, then lose tension on the rope and let the rope fall down under the weight of knife >< hahaha you need to catch and repeat the process to get down from second hook.. 2nd problem with my solution is that you need to catch rope with the knife falling onto you from 50 meters lol.
tie a loop at one end of the rope. put your foot in it and sling the rope over the hook... keep constant pressure and release slowly giving more and more slack as you slowly make it down. Then when on the ledge just pull the rope through and repeat. If you can climb down the rope you will have the muscle strength to do this as its the same amount of effort. no need to damage the rope at all.
@@myutubechannel_nr1 maybe i misspoke, once you get to the second ledge you have the total 150 meters of rope to loop again. making it safely down with the same rope maneuver, on the second loop.
2:28 so just make a noose
I like the way you think
Good one
I would use the 100m rope to go to the ledge, then use the knife to break all the windows and get in the building and get down then cut open the door
HOw can you measure the rope if you don't have a measuring tool
Simply fold it twice so as to have three 'one third' lenght parts.
You may need a ruler also to measure the length,btw it is a great puzzle
No, just fold it properly in 3 parts
this puzzle was so easy
Great video
If your confident with your rope work could just tie the rope to first hook and have live/dead rope with some knot in dead end to release on next level. Use live end till down 100m and repeat. Since won't have to cut the rope at all
What if u unwound the rope? You will have 2 150 meter pieces, only they will be thinner
And the strength will also be divided to half.
@@kalpratama how do we know that half strength is not enough?
Most people can jump from the 2nd floor safely to the ground.
Also the ground is covered with grass, making the landing more comfortable.
2nd floor of a building? Maybe. But 2nd ledge from a 100 metre height? Pretty much dead
You don't have to cut the rope at all. Ty the ends together and put it over the hook on the top ledge crawl down to the second ledge untie the rope and then tie it to the second hook in the same manner and climb down
Bruh just use the knife to cut the building in half
I had really solved.
Nice puzzle...
Tie a rope on a hook or make a knot will likely take 1 meter off of it...did you account that?
I can do it with out cutting just do a pull through knot and repeat on second hook
I'm assuming this can also be called a Kamikaze knot
It is something I did consider at first, but I wasn't going to bet my life on my knot skills
How much rope must I use to make the knot at the end of the 50m rope? It's important to know because I'll need to prepare myself for a 1m drop for example. Are we talking mere centimeters of the total rope used for the knot, or a meter+ ?
ur height would be 1.5m + doesnt matter if it takes that much rope to make a knot, u could hang down from the end of the rope to compensate for that much shortage of rope
i would climb down with intact rope, put a 2nd knot to the 100m hook. climb up 50m, cut and fall/swing down. climb up to the 100m hook, adjust the 100m rope and slide down. EZ
Good solution.like the problem
I've had a think and come up with this .. I'll look at your solution after I've given you mine.
You have a knife so that means that you can cut the rope.
The rope is 150m ... and you need to do 100m twice.
So ..
Cut the rope into 100m and 50m.
Tie a small loop to one end of the 50m rope and tread the 100m rope 'half way' through it.
This will give you a 100m rope .. the bottom 'half' being a 'double rope'.
Climb down half way and attach one end of the 'folded' 100m rope to the hook
Then pull the 100m rope free of the 50m rope.
You now have the 100m you need to get to the ground.
EDIT
Forgot to mention .. You don't have a tape measure
so to get 100m and 50m you lay the rope out and 'fold it' into 3.
Reverse engineering.wow thanks
Good one bro
Attach rope to your body then use hook as rappelling leverage for both steps no cutting nessesary
False. You'd die. However not too far from the only solution, which is by swinging down the rope.
How do you account for the amount of rope that gets eaten up by the knots?
You don't really need to. You would need 3 double figure 8 knots in total, which each take about half a meter of rope, leaving you 1.5 meters short of the ground which should be enough to get down without even having to jump.
my plan was to nail the knife between hoow 1 and 2, to be able to bend the rope in two and go to the second hook, if the rope is 150m, i will get a 75 meters long rope if i bend it, which is more than enough to go from hook 1 to the knife
By making a naught the length of rope become shorter
The man has some default height yoo
Take a 50m rope and tie it to the hook. Then create a loop at the end and tie it off. Put the 100m rope through and tie the 100m rope at the ends and you’ll have 100m rope because this guy doesn’t know how knots or tying rope works.
Much easier
Just go on the 1st floor and you can easily come out of the building
but there is no door on the top...
@@tr3hy860 then how did he got on terrace?
Just cut 100m rope , add loop , adjust it such that it fixes on the lower edge and bungee jump 😎
It's ambiguous which way up the hooks are. If they were the other way up you could abseil down then simply pull the rope off the hook. That way you only have to rely on the one knot for the loop at the top and have around 50 m of rope to play with to make yourself secure while abseiling.
After seeing the knife, I solved this puzzle instantly.
If you tie the rope ends together you can loop it around the top hook and reach the second hook. Then just untie the rope and pull it to the second hook and tie it up again the same way. And when you get to the bottom you can untie the rope and keep it.
no because theres 25 m missing to the second hook
Oh nice one sir...I was thinking like not cutting the rope and leaving 50m up tie first hook and get down to second hook and tie a knot...then get back to top and remove the knot in the first hook and tie the rope to your body(as you 50m of rope to do that) and jump...as the remaining rope length is 100m he will reach ground safely...
:) Abhishek... i knew I am going to see this answer :) :) ... jumping won't ensure safety
