Help Partial hanging is this slipknot fine?

[TheGoodGuy]

I am ctb tomorrow and want to know if you think this simple slipknot is fine enough or if there is another one please share the video. I also am not sure how to ancor it properly to the tree I was thinking using the same slipknot on the tree any help will be greatly appreciated.

And the rope is cotton and has a breaking point of 250kg and I weigh a little over 50kg.

I also just found this video I might use this to ancor instead it seems good.

The knots looks fine. Test it to make sure it slips ok, if not consider lubricating it a bit with soap or something.

The soap was a good idea but it slips okay I think not like silk but should be good enough.

Bowline is good idea to anchor to tree if done properly. I've tested it on heating pipe many times (cause I was also trying with partial suspension) and it's solid.

If it slides easily, you are good to go.

The slip knot is good (yellow rope).
The bowline is just a fixed loop.

I would just make sure to wrap it around the branch a couple of times or maybe put something between the branch and the rope so the rope doesn't snap from rubbing against some rough part (though that's unlikely anyway).

The bowline is for anchoring and I tested it and it´s very strong doesn´t untie.

I doubt the branch will saw through the rope from a few minutes of my body jumping around.

Yeah I said it's unlikely but still, you don't want a small tear ruining the integrity of the rope. If you've got a good rope it's extremely unlikely to happen though.

I am thinkinkg of using a simple knot for the anchor point . Will it he ok?

I've been messing around with different knots for a bit. As part as my mixture of methods.
( partial / swb / bunch of old meds / booze )
( fenny or white / pre-workout)

Noose (not hangmans)
Seemed like it could slip easy.

Slipknot was good because it slides easy.
But It didn't work for me because of my anchor point.
Doorknob, "rope" over door,
(I'm using electrical cord)
I'm on the other side tippy toes or kneeling.
The reason it didn't work, is because the side that slides is usally short so not enough to go over the door. (Anchor point)

That being said I found this "Taut line hitch"
Like a slipknot with a extra stop and allows more length to get to the anchor.

Just to wish you well if you go ahead. May your journey be as peaceful as possible and if it helps at all you will be being thought of.
Go well, sleep soundly.

The easy test is to tie it and hang onto it. If it holds your weight, you are ok. Knots do not need to be complicated.
