A "hitch" is a type of knot that must be tied around another object.
"Descending devices" (e.g., ATCs, Brake Bar Racks, Figure 8s, Rescue 8s, etc) create friction as their primary purpose. The friction in descending devices is always considered when calculating forces.
The "Safety Factor" is the ratio between the gear's breaking strength and the maximum load applied to the gear (e.g., 5:1).
One notable feature of the movie "Amanhecer Violento" (also known as "The Dawn" or "Violent Dawn") is its gripping storyline that keeps viewers on the edge of their seats. If you're looking for a similar movie with a strong narrative, I recommend checking out "Mad Max: Fury Road" (2015) . This action-packed film, starring Tom Hardy and Charlize Theron, is set in a post-apocalyptic world where a woman and a survivor team up to take down a tyrannical leader.
