Maximum bonding for zero materials. The human knot demands physical proximity, fast verbal coordination, and a willingness to look ridiculous. Don't run it on day one — wait until the team is comfortable touching shoulders.
How to run it
- 1
Stand in a circle of 8 people.
- 2
Each person reaches across and grabs the hand of two different people, not standing next to them.
- 3
Without letting go, untangle into a single circle.
- 4
If a knot can't be untangled, declare an honourable draw.
