Frayed Rope Under Tension

A robust brown rope, severely frayed and visibly tearing in the center, illustrates the immense strain it is currently enduring. The individual strands are pulled apart and tattered, creating a clear gap where the rope is on the verge of snapping completely. It visually represents the concept of a breaking point, wear and tear, or a system under extreme pressure.
