Thus the reason for this post. Mostly all highschool movies show it as apart of gym class, but that rarely ever happens in real life

I mean, I've never heard or seen on films of anyone climbing a knotted rope. First time I heard of the idea was when I saw that post. o-o

Same. And the only thing protecting us was a mat on the floor. Yeah...2nd graders can handle that.

Same here, and one girl fell from the top of the rope.

We had those ropes hanging in the school hall, apparently the kids had to climb them when the school was first built. I wouldn't have done it even if they wanted me to.

We only had to in elementary school, and it was hell. I have no upper body strength and could never get a foot above the ground. :P We had the ropes in middle school, but we never used them.
