The mummy.

No, this is not how you do a tensionless anchor. Look it up if you want to see a proper anchor. They could have used a knot instead of a single non-locking carabiner.

The webbing on the tiny tree is taking ALL of the load. The rope to the big tree is totally slack. That is a somewhat better tensionless anchor, not great as you can see the loose wrap.
