Beat me to it. Summary if you don't want to read: 22 year old man misjudged the length of rope needed to make a rope swing at Corona Arch near Moab.
Video of what he was trying to do here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4B36Lr0U ... r_embedded

So back on topic....are these ropes elastic like climbing ropes?
The length could change based on weight and distance falling?
