to rappel or "rap" is to decend something by using a rope.

You wear a harnass and attach a device (to you and to the rope) which kinks the rope (anchored to a SUPER solid place[s]) so that you can control yourself as you lower down.

figure out the system somewhere safe and look to a climbing gym or a guide for instruction!

To effectively use a rappel ring for descending during rock climbing or rappelling activities, attach the rappel ring to your harness using a secure knot, thread the rope through the ring, and then carefully control your descent by applying friction with your braking hand on the rope. Make sure to maintain a steady pace and keep your body in a controlled position to safely reach the bottom.
