   In some cases, the lead is tied or spliced permanently to the halter. A lead for a horse usually is in the range of 9 to 12 feet (2.7 to 3.7 m) long, but longer and shorter lengths are seen. The lead shank consists of a lead, usually a flat line, with a chain end, or, less often, thin nylon or rope.

4. Belaying - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belaying

The anchor arrests any upward force produced during a fall thus preventing the belayer from "taking off".
