Take another look at the photo of the rope that hung up. It looks like the rope was threaded through the left chain, then through the right chain, and then BACK through the left chain. I don't see how this could happen if the rope was threaded normally.
It makes sense that a rope could hang-up in this position, as the chain links are acting like an improvised stitch plate. |
