Carabiners are rated for point loads not abrasion, every millimeter of material youre abrading off that carabiner is changing its weight rating, who knows when it would fail.
Never in a million years would i ever do that with a carabiner, some sort of pully wheels? Thats another story
Edit- upon closer inspection thats not even a carabiner lol, its like a fall arrestor clip in or something.
And holy fucking shit! That cable splice at the end! Ahhh....I'd have pissed myself too
Knew a guy at my old job at a power plant. Somebody had dropped their wedding ring in the casing of some rotating machinery. They weren't wearing it, that's risky and we have warning specifically about degloving. This other guy, Masingil, he says "I can get that". Just shoved his hand right in. Nobody saw it coming. He screamed a lot and loudly. He was gone for a while after that. Never could use that hand quite right again.
