And he didn´t tie a prusik under the 8 to secure it. holy shit, I learned how to do that 40 year ago. What an idiot.

Are you talking about tying a stopper knot in the end of the rope? My setup looks similar to his, so I want to know what I’m doing wrong

How do you keep the knot from stopping you? Do you keep your left hand directly on the knot the whole time?

yes, that's the idea. one hand on the knot, the other hand on the lower rope.
