A Monkey’s’ Fist is a special knot tied on the end of rope to give it weight. It is used on ships to either dock or tie up to another ship at sea. A sailor will stand on the deck of a ship, spin it around a few times over his head so it builds up speed, and then let it fly toward its intended target. Someone on the other end would take the rope and tie the ship off or pull it in. If the person on the other end was not paying attention, he ran the risk of being flattened by it since the knot actually weighed a few pounds. The point is the Monkey’s Fist is what connects to ship to this other entity. So what does this have to do with Guerrilla Marketing?   more »
