I see. For some reason you are thinking about the effect of the feet at A and the rope at B and C.
Or maybe you are talking about what happens if you attach the rope at A. Well, the component is not reverted but goes to infinity as the attachment approaches to the actual center of rotation. Y component also goes to 0. If the rope and your arms are strong enough (and you are still a bit above), it would work too.
