How to unlock the Hang Tough achievement in Gang Beasts - Definitive Guide
You need to climb up the ropes of the gondola (using the combination of , and ) to the point where you are hanging from the yellow bar with two ropes suspended below you. Whilst holding on, use to kick at the ropes. Eventually one will break and you need to move across to the other one and kick it away using the same method. Once the Gondola falls and you are still holding on, the achievement should pop.
I'll be honest, this was the hardest achievement for me in the game!
You need to break all four cables holding up the elevator
This will drop a gondola down but you need to still be hanging
To do this break the bottom two with headbutt (B)
Then climb up and break another with headbutt
Then climb all the way up until you're on the cable
Kick (X) until it breaks and the gondola will drop
If you're still hanging on you'll get this achievement
You only need an extra controller for the football achievement
I also teach you how to play

I suggest using a second person or at least 2-4 rubber bands for the following. Have your main headbutt each rope twice (takes 3 to cut), and make sure the rope moves. Then headbutt the top left and the bottom right so they both are cut. Walk over to the top right with your main and rubberband and so you are holding the rope, preferably up high. Do the same for your second controller to the bottom left rope. Headbutt both ropes simultaniously and the gondola should fall, neither of you should (hopefully) and the achievement pops. Much easier than trying to climb this garbage challenge.
I suppose I can't guarantee that it will work this way every time, but I tried it the exact same way on my sisters account and it unlocked.
1. Pick one corner, head butt cable until it breaks
2. Go to the catty-corner/kitty-corner/diagonal cable, head butt till it breaks.
3. Go to the cable just above it, head butt TWICE
4. now go to the last remaining corner, head butt till it breaks,s and get ready to hold on as soon it breaks. NOW follow the other guides and climb to the last remaining cable, it should take only a few kicks.
Here is Maka's video at the right time. My tips are a tweak on his guide and should make it a bit easier.
You can do this online or offline, either solo or with other players. If playing local, the trophy will only unlock for Player 1. If playing online, each player will individually have to complete the requirements to unlock their trophy. Start up a Melee game and choose the Gondola stage. In this stage, there are two Gondolas, each being held up by 4 cables. In between them is a wooden plank, but you don’t need to worry about that. You need to break all 4 cables on one of the gondolas without falling down with it to get the trophy.
While this can be solo’d, it is much easier to do with another player helping. You’ll see why below.
Solo Method: Pick which gondola you’re going to do this on and break one of the cables on the outer side (the side with the door/opening) by headbutting it () a few times. Now, break the cable in the opposite corner (for example if you broke the front left cable, now break the back right cable). When that’s done, get ready. As soon as you break the 3rd cable, you will need to quickly grab onto the gondola ( and ) to prevent yourself from falling. When you’re ready, break the other front cable and grab a hold of the gondola as it swings down. Now, you need to climb up the hanging gondola by holding and , and moving one hand at a time to a higher position. Your aim will be to get up and onto the last cable. When you have, pull yourself up it and start kicking () the bottom of the cable to break it. As soon as you do, the gondola will fall and you will be left hanging on the cable.
Multiplayer Method: Again, this trophy is much easier to do with another person so if you can, grab someone to help you out. To start, make sure both players are standing in front of two cables in opposite corners of each other (if Player 1 is standing in front of the lower left cable, Player 2 will need to stand in front of the top right). When you’re ready, have both players break their cables by giving them a few headbutts (). When the cables are broken, each player will now need to climb onto one of the two remaining cables. Make sure both players are hanging high enough up on them and, when you’re ready, start kicking the lower end of the cable to break it. With both cables break, the gondola will fall, leaving both players dangling. If you’re playing online, both players will get the trophy. If you’re playing local, only player 1 will get the trophy.
If you need a visual reference for getting this done, please see the video provided under Safety Warning. This trophy is shown at 11:03.

This was tricky and took some practice but what ended up working is to headbutt until one of the front cables breaks then do the same on the opposite back cable. Then break the remaining front cable and quickly run over and grab the remaining cable. or
Climb the cable a bit and and grab with whichever hand you aren't using to hand onto the cable. or . Once you have a grasp on the cable headbutt until that cable breaks and I ended up handing on higher than where it broke and the trophy popped.
The two cable farthest from the building can be safely destroyed without falling from the stage. Begin climbing up the gondola using the same tactic mentioned in "Buoy 'o buoy" and while holding onto the gondola with one hand, kick out another cable. Finally, climb to the last remaining cable and kick it out while holding onto it.
You will need a partner to complete this.
From the beginning we break two parallel ropes, then your partner grabs the rope and so do you, then both break the ropes (so that in the end you will both be left hanging on the ropes)
