The bracelet that can help you swing across a canyon

Black-Paracord-Survival-Bracelet_1.jpgHave you ever needed to swing across a gaping chasm but were woefully unequipped with the proper tools for the job? I know, it's the worst! Well, if you were wearing a Survival Bracelet, you'd be all set for any rappelling or swinging you may find yourself required to perform.

The Survival Bracelet is made up of 15 to 20 feet of 550-pound test paracord. If you ever need it, simply unravel it and use the hook that's on one end. When you're done, you can send it back in to the manufacturer and they're rewind it back into a bracelet for you. Not a bad accessory for the adventurer on the go.

That is kind of cool. To bad there is not an easier way to rewind the bracelet though.

Would be nice if they deliver to the UK
And yes some rewind instructions would be good, in case you want to do it yourself
