How do you knot the end of a rope on abseil? 26-Oct-2010 At 4:03:26 PM Hugh

In reference to not tying knots on single pitch...

I do, and perhaps its just paranoia, but imagine, from some reason, one side ran faster then the other...? You could potentially absail off the end....

As for knots getting stuck when pulling. It would appear that is just complacency and complacency gets people killed right...?
