Hi. Hehehe..Today, I'm gonna teach ya how to do the
Figure Eight Knot.
A little bit about Figure Eight :
** Also known as the Flemish Bend, it is the strongest knot, secure and easy to visually inspect.
Widely used by mountain climbers.
Well in my case, I use this knot for my safety line or life line for working at height job.
I just show you the pictures because I can't describe how to do the tie in words. Sorry for that =)
Here my guide-pictures :

| 6th. Pull the rope to secure the knot |

| 7th. This is how easy it is to inspect the knot if it is faulty. |
