Flying Rope
Please try stick with this..or just skip to the vid

It's quite fun this Indian rope trick... flying rope chat...
Let's investigate the methods...
Well first we could try to redefine the word wind ... you know meaning to twist things... not the blowing stuff. Wind up would occur.

We could alternately try getting the wind (blowing type) up high to pull us up...
How...?
By changing the definition of yet another word...rope this time.
Not a wind up (twisted) rope, more a braided rope or flat aligned hollow type this time.

and:

Of course assuming we create this flying rope... (wider bottom than top, not previously depicted, and also preferably with a tilting base to cope with drag curvature. Or alternately a sidedness built into the layer tether spacing and a rotary base... )

What stops us making six of them and flying them to be a collective lifter for a Bottled Tornado type rotary generator?
