first of all, why are the people who fall from the jump falling so far? someone is belaying the rope right? there has to be, because the climbers don't fall to the ground when they fail. and since it's just a rope tied to their waist, falling with that should cause massive injuries

second, the ledge jump was utterly ridiculous. there's no way a little girl less than 5 feet tall is outjumping 6 ft tall guys. and they were missing by a good distance, that means her hops were completely superhuman. and there is no logic to why they couldn't make the jump with the rope but could without it

fear of death doesn't make you weak, it makes you strong

You'd think Bruce would just pull others out with the rope once he got to the top. Nope, he just left everyone there to rot.

The whole thing is stupid. The Dark Knight Rises is a pretty crap film all around.

After he climbed out, he dropped a rope down. I'm pretty sure the implication is that he freed all the prisoners.

At about 3:40 in this video he chucks a huge coil of rope down the hole.

And it looks like they have the ability to move around freely and manipulate things in the prison and get to the ledge, why didn't they just construct ladders and shit up and the well stupid ass mother fuckers.

Because the rope is so long.

No, it's just tied to a rock sticking out of the wall or something.

It's a nice throwback to Begins, where he falls in a well and his dad has to pull him out. This time, he makes his own way out and throws the rope down for everyone else.

... i don't think you understand how ropes work. there's some kind of anchor near the top of the well where the rope was looped around, as clearly shown in the movie.

the climbers were tied in from the ground before they started. meaning the length of the rope reaches the ground. if nothing was taking up the slack as you were climbing, then you'd just fall all the way back to the ground whenever you fell, killing you.

so there is a belayer. but then it makes zero sense why he stops taking up the slack somewhere pretty low, so that every time someone fell from high up, they'd take a massive fall and smash into the side of the pit.

"not fearing death" does not give you an extra two feet of hops

TC, shut the fuck up. It's a movie. Not everything they do will make perfect sense.

These make zero sense, not just "little" @JustMyOpinion

If I remember right. The rope itself prevented a lot of people from jumping the gap. That was the point. You had to jump with no safety to actually achieve it.

That's not even possible. You have as much rope as you need when you're near the top of the pit where the ledge is. You can have as much slack as possible when you make that jump.

And even if the rope was the thing that was preventing them from making jump, then why even bother trying at all? "gee, this rope is two feet too short and pulls me down every time I try, so I'll just keep hoping it somehow grows this time"
