The end of the bailout rope with the carabiner was attached to the victim. Then it was strung over a ladder rung, back down through the carabiner, and back up over the rung again to make a 3-to-1 (they say 2-to-1 in the video). The bag was dropped to the ground not attached to anything. At 3:24 you can see him let go of the other end of the rope. Had barely enough to make this work.
@@DIRTDUMMY1 Correct, quick video so we don't always get the details in that we shoot for. Friction control can be wrapped around multiple rungs as needed but a muenter in a carabiner would work as well. The goal on this one was to run the raise off the fall pro and then lower directly. As for the MA, there is confusion there but the clip in of the rope to the carabiner is a 2:1, the overall MA is indeed 3:1 theoretical but much lower due to the multiple friction points. Thanks for watching so closely and great question @michael7324
Insightful content on a rescue.
Thanks for watching!
What was the bailout bag attached to? The ladder rung?

I agree. A quick shot of the braking method or employing a muenter hitch would be helpful. But it's a quick video to hit the high points...
