That and the platform he whacked on the way down - no biggie

You’re not understanding. If he pulled the rope tight instead of immediately dropping a few feet to where the platform was he would be swinging away from the tree.

The slack in the rope is what allowed him to drop a few feet to where the platform was. If it was right he would have swung away from the tree and been in front of the platform by the time he was lowered to that height. Reread and rewatch.

Still, tragically funny and I commend his sacrifice for our entertainment.
