TTTM in the International Highline Meeting Monte Piana

Ultimate Hammock Session Chillout

Monte Piana - Dolomites, Italy

Very probably the most people and for sure the most hammocks 

on a highline ever

How did it happen ? 
By Igor Scotland - Ticket to the Moon Europe

The idea was born by Armin Holzer and the A team which is organizing the highline meeting (highlinemeeting.com) in 2013. Armin asked me if i wanna do this world record with them. So we did it the first time 2013, pretty spontaneously with 16 people in 14 hammocks and 2 chairs.

The spot is on the Monte Piana in Italy, ~2400m high the valley is ~500m deeper.

For 2014 we planned it more proper and made the set up more strong, we had 16 parachute hammocks and 22 people on the line. On the lines beside another 6 hammocks with 6 Person inside.

Monte Piana is among the Dolomites, offering a spectacular 360 degrees view out across the range and over the Lake of Misurina below. The views are astonishing, the heights are dizzying, and the thrill of hopping into your hammock for a quick chat with a nearby dangling human are second to none. There are – of course – harnesses, so it should be pretty easy to relax and just stroll across, right?

The set up is made from 2 layers of core 1 slackline webbing from Landcrusing-slacklines.de each with 4500 kg breaking strength loaded 50%each. So with reduction from line locker breaking strength will be about 7900 kg. And then there is a back up with 2 x 10 mm static ropes (BS 34kn, 22kn with knot) on separate Bolts. On each side we had 10x 12mm Bolts.

While all people where on the slackline the maximum force was measured with a scale 2348 kg.

It was a fun world record for the most people in hammocks (Ticket to the Moon) on a highline.see more pix here:
