I had to make a pull-through system the other day and I considered using a Highwayman?s Hitch but never having practised it before I opted against it. I?ve never heard of a caver using it before so for those who don?t know it was designed to tie up a horse with one end but be easily releasable by pulling the other. Could such a knot intended to confine a powerful creature hold a persons entire body weight? Could it withstand shock loading?
