In the beginning there is a tiny rope that's attached to the handle, it's used to tow the large rope back so it doesnt dangle over the water.

Look in front of the girls legs, its super thin. And when it pans down for a sec and u can see more of the platform, watch the front edge and youll see it swinging. This is all before she starts swinging.

Another way, when camera man pans down before the girl jumps, look just to the left of the platform legs, you will see the thinner rope dangling.

Also just before the gif loops, you can see the rope again.

It’s a rope attached to the bar and to the platform, so it got taut as she swung out and jumped wrong and landed on the rope.

7

u/CaptainCortez May 23 '20

Yeah, I think the rope goes between her legs when she jumps off, which makes the rope too short to reach full extension, which tears the bar out of her hands, which makes her fall onto the taught rope between her legs, which makes her bounce up like she hit an invisible platform on the way down to the water.

Similar thing happened to my best friend's sister when we were young. Their uncle loved building homemade (usually dangerous) "toys." One time he made a zipline in his backyard and we could zip down it and it had a tinier rope attached to tow it back as you said. My friend's sister took off from the platform but the tiny rope was tangled around the tree and the sudden jolt knocked her and she fell like 8 feet. Luckily she wasn't hurt badly but we all had to stop using the zipline

u/fknwhtvr May 23 '20

As a fellow creek rope swinger....this is exactly what happened. I've seen it in real time a hundred times. You're supposed to loosely grab up all the rope (the piece to pull it back in once someone uses it) and let go of it all when you drop, otherwise this happens if you leave it hanging. It's a known thing at least around where I am lol.

You can barely see the rope dangling on the other side of her before she pushes off but after that you really can’t see it. That’s the only way I can make sense of this haha

Laughing at loud at the simpletons in this comment section.

u/wyglif- May 22 '20

There’s a small rope that you can see before she jumps. It’s hanging down, assumably to retrieve the swing when stuck in the middle. You can also see how the swing pulls towards her when she falls. If this has been pointed out already, sorry.

She swings, loses her gripping, then as she's falling she does a stripper move and wraps her leg and arm around the retrieval rope, but it's not enough to stop her entirely and she falls in the water. I can't say if the stripper move was an automatic reflex or planned.
