Rope running over itself |

Hi all I was "climbing" on sunday and managed to fling myself off a steep route while on toprope. Because I swung out I went around the belayers side of the rope and twisted the rope around itself 6 or 7 times. I managed to untwist it with great difficulty (I was hanging in space), I was wondering how dangerous that sort of situation is. For example if I was lowered off in that situation is it possible for the rope to generate enough heat to cut through with an intact sheath, and are there any similar situations with the rope running over itself that are dangerous. Thanks. |
