Those old rope pulling carts are beautiful

[kenneth]

Now I want to see how is made is made.

[kidbogus]

Her: so what do you do for work?
Him: I ride the rope chariot.

[davids.lefort]

I wanted to see how the rope was made from the raw material not how they twisted it in to rope

[RosieMe]

FYI this rope walk can be visited at Mystic Seaport in Connecticut. You can walk the entire length of the building, and it's even longer than it feels in this video. They maintain and restore antique sailing ships there, so I'm sure having an authentic rope making machine is very useful

I had a question... This video answered it.

No 5 hours of surfing for the content.

Wow... that machine at 2:15 is almost 160 years old and still functioning like it was meant to way back then..

[thatgrumpychick]

I'm a simple person. I see a how it's made video, I click and enjoy

[carlinianams]

I feel like a lot was missing from today's episode.

[joseph_b]

Love that machine they use. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it.

[chronischtelaat]

Thanks for the tutorial but I'm stuck. I've just made the three strands and I'm trying to bundle the three together(2.05), but I need rope to finish the rope...

Rope Rope Rope Rope ro-ro-ro-ro-ro-rop-ro-rope

And now, you really know the Pope.

[MindDataAI]

it should be "how to make rope 100 years ago".

[mrsdconley]

Is this where we are in quarantine now?

[shadowboxing]

Now i want to know how to make rope from our everyday life, as if there was a apocalyptic situation and manufactured rope has ceased to exist

[julessuranyi]

Really interesting, good to know how to make a rope .... I have overlooked that I must necessarily acquire the knowledge of rope making now that I have looked at that I feel much better! When comes the 2nd part?

[Idlehampster]

2:30 I think he meant to say 5cm in diameter, not inches.

[shadowdrift]

Useful advice for a future Logan Paul video. Thanks.

[redpanda]

THIS IS WHAT I WANTED! Not that B.S steal cable they are calling a "Rope".

[george]

Watch this with The Noose Song in the background. It's beautiful
