=== Belaying risks ===

~~When belaying with Munter hitch, aside from always holding the break strand, belayer~~ should ~~pay attention to~~ keep fingers at a respectful distance from the knot~~, otherwise he~~ might risk jamming ~~his~~ fingers into the belay, which might result in a severe finger injury. Belayer should also ensure to tie the Munter in a way that it ~~does not~~ interfere with the carabiner gate/lock. Otherwise the rope friction might unlock, and maybe even open the gate ~~of the carabiner~~.
