World's Hardest World Record - Full Documentary of Lapporten, Sweden 2.1km Long Highline
Рет қаралды 246,760
2 жыл бұрынWe did it! The Lapporten Project by @northernlines_slackline officially got a highline world record at 2130m long (1.3 miles) but it isn't just the length, it was in a really remote location making the rigging quite complex. A full feature film by Pinewood Productions will be aired on Swedish TV and submitted to film festivals.
This was the first slackline project to be sponsored through crowdfunding. We made soft shackles with the dyneema tag line as a gift to them and you can see more about that at • Making soft shackles f...

I’m a lineman and I wish I was involved in something like this as there’s a few ways to make this easier. Pulleys and pork chop line clamps and there’s a lot of knots that aren’t appropriate for climbing but work well for pulling. That being said I have zero experience in slack line or rappelling. I very much respect the improvisation and adapting of the group

The part about nearly losing a hand on a tensioned line I really can connect with. When towing a 500ton boat with a 5000hp 150 ton boat I had to do a little fancy work with a tow bit (basically a T shaped post you put wraps of line onto to create friction). I was manning the line (2 inch Amsteel blue) and the captain of the boat I was on could not hear me to shift to neutral and kept pulling out the line thru the bit. The neatly stacked slack behind me was rapidly flailing as it was being paid out so rapidly and I was in danger of being caught in the middle of it all. Fortunately I was able to whip a few extra wraps on the bit from about 10 foot away and slow the pay out speed before I was maimed. Extremely scary to deal with such tension in a dynamic environment such as an ocean. I've spent my whole life around rope sports and maratime line work and would hesitate to make the long pulls y'all did in this video. Kudos to all involved and I'm glad everyone stayed safe.
