At that point they all pass through an enormous fork in the tree. So, each cable goes from an anchor point on the steel collar, up and through the fork in the tree, and then back down to the opposite side of the collar. Thus the entire thing hangs. I hope this clarifies things. To answer Jon’s question, if you look at the 4th photo down from the top, you will see that all the cables from the steel collar converge about ten feet above it.
