Thrown like a baseball that Monkey Fist knot could make for some fun times. Need to make sure the Drone Chopper is nearby to get the full effects.

Monkeys fist. Coil the rope in a over/under. Hold coild in one hand, 5' or so in the other hand, spin it around and let is sail, let go of coil at the same time. We used to use half inch rope and a monkeys fist, throw and catch that, then pull the 3" diameter line to the bit on the bow lines of the work boats. That baseball throw crap never worked, spin it around and let it fly !
