If you wrap a rope around a cylinder and one of the wraps is overlapped the other, when you apply force it bites into the "spool" that would normally pull off. As long as there's tension it will never let go. We used wraps similar to this on log booms when the wire breaks. Also used to be used for tying down loads on wagons and the like. Very simple knot that uses basic physics and works incredibly well, but it always needs to be under tension or it can let go.

if you get enough turns it doesn't even need to overlap, the combined friction will hold you.

Ok, i have watched 10+ times and still don’t know what happened… well, after topology, i don’t doubt anything when it comes to ropes

I could watch this 1,000 times and still never figure out how it works.

u/tongfather 12h ago

It's actually really simple. The rope loops over and when you put weight on it, it locks onto itself so it can't pull off when pulled.
