Circling back late on this one. Lots of article, many rehashing the previous articel. Common themes seem to be "improperly tied" and "magically untied itself" which to me implies "improperly tied" again. No fault with the figure 8 tho. When we rappelled, and in ROTC mountaineering we used bowlines and Army Gold Braid lines. That should date me.
