    So much is wrong in that video, the hammock is strung too tight, horrible leave no trace practices, the hammock has spreader bars, the proper 30 degree hang angle is not achieved, when it is strung between buildings the attachment points are too far apart, you should not use your hammock as a parachute..... I loved it as a kid and I still like it now. Good quality cartoons are hard to come by nowadays, they sure don't make them like they used too.

    Living in a place like that, I can confirm that its very, very difficult to grow trees strong enough for hammocks It calls for the Turtledog stand. I don't have that cat problem though
