And this one time, at band camp, I was rappelling down a wall on a munter hitch, and the carabiner wouldn’t lock, but i rapped anyway, and I heard a dreaded click, and I could smell burning. So I let go and saw that my backup prusik was holding me. My hands were badly burned and I now always use a backup prusik.
