What you linked will work as a truckers hitch, but that's not a trucker's hitch.

How come there are two links in this thread and none of them are this one?

I should have checked yours before I also posted!

Incidentally, that put me off learning the trucker's hitch until completely unconnected a friend showed me the hitch very simply. Now it's one of my favourite.

I also assumed until half way through the song...That it was going to be a sappy love song about how he doesn't know how to 'tie the knot'
...I was glad to find myself wrong.
