A demonstration, including safety concerns, of the South African method of rappelling with no equipment except for a rope. To display the advantages and disadvantages of this method, I wore inadequate clothing and did it without any safety gear. When you rappel, always use proper gear and technique. The method used in this video is for emergency use only, when no other gear is available. In learning or practicing this technique, perform it under controlled circumstances, preferably on belay.
