See our contaminated slackline tests https://youtu.be/Bvr--pT9xcM
We also tested pee! https://youtu.be/X5mMWB1x4hw

The rope broke in the knot between 17-19kN in all samples except the acid where the contaminate actually was the cause of the breakage around 10kN, which was a lot higher than we thought! Keep acid off your ropes and wear your sunscreen!
