How many things wrong?
1. Hollow tree 2. Thin runner 3. Single carabiner, remember most locking carabiners have been recalled in the last year 4. Another thin runner 5. Another single carabiner 6. 8MM cord running over rock edges without padding
Best guess, the knots create 2 sort of independent strands of the 8MM, so a cut strand isn't complete failure. Proof that they know 8MM is a poor choice.
And a bunch of unnnecessary knots, it looks like? What the heck?
