First Discussion and a Thank you.

First of all, Thank you for adding this!

Now onto the first official discussion.

Who is into escapes?

What kinds?

I like rope/handcuffs, haven't tried anything else, looking for a straitjacket at the moment.

I have been doing escapes for about 8 years now. Here are the one's I do.

The first one uses Houdini's Shackle Escape on you wrists. Fifteen feet of tow chain wraps the body (they can bring their own locks). This is covered with a Transport Straight Jacket (this is the kind with no arms that they use in institutions to subdue the crazies). Get out in open. I also used this escape in a Christmas show with a mail bag escape added to it all. Again, they bring the locks.

I also do a straight jacket escape.

A straight jacket with a transport straight over it (double jacket), with a escape in full view.

And when I was in the military in the mid 1970's I use to make money betting people that they could not tie me up in rope and keep me there.

Escapes are alot of fun to do if, like everything else, you know how to present it....milk it if you will.
