Having looked at them, it was probably the first one. The second one didn't
exist at the time (Youtube tends to link things like this very easily when
they do). I don't remember anything about a toolbag hanging from an ankle
though, that sounds like a very bad idea to me. However it is managed, I'd
have thought it should be attached to the strongeest, most central part of
the climber, at the waist, leaving all limbs eady to move.
