Will add my two cents to otn's.
Whether or not there was any strain on the lines, having the feet in the area
between the lines run and bulwarks especially as in the picture, is not a good
idea.
We all do it and normally get away with it, but it's the one time that proves
the value of always watching where we stand, and standing in a "hole" as otn
describes it, is a situation to be avoided.
