Anal Hook

[Di****]

How much weight can a hook hold up?

It depends on the hook. Don't try to use anything that doesn't have the MBS & SWL ratings listed. Be aware of the safety factors used by different types of equipment.
Like arborist equipment is 5:1, some boating rigging is 4:1. For suspending a person, I use 10:1
