What type of rope coiling is that on Mr. Anderson's shoulder?

  Looks like a daisy chain: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75XNCMKW7XE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75XNCMKW7XE

    Technical climbers will often refer to this as an electrician's coil[0] because a daisy chain[1] is a specific type of runner.

      The electrician's coil is very nice, especially the quick unraveling. I always re-tie survival bracelets into these kinds of braids - I dunno who has five minutes to untie their regular-braid survival bracelets in case of emergency.
