In this video, we show you how to tie a Monkey’s Fist Knot. It’s a somewhat complicated knot that creates a ball at the end of a rope. It’s usually used to add weight to heaving lines - ropes that are used for throwing overboard or over other hard-to-reach objects. You can also add something in the middle, like a marble to add more weight and make it easier to throw.
