Could you survive this?
Falling on static ropes is dangerous they say. It sounds painful, but how painful? We tested semi-static nylon rope, a very static polyester rope and a high-tech super static abrasion-resistant rope in the drop tower. Spoiler alert, some would kill you and that's only a fall factor of 0.3 or falling 1/3 the length of your rope. Falling with a fall factor of one (fall 5 feet with 5 feet of rope out) can break the rope, which still kills you.
