Chained and locked to a beam for 2 hours

[magical mike]

OMG today My mom left (I was the only one home) so I decided I would mess around with escapes. I wanted to do something simple just in case. So All I did at first, was I nailed a U clamp to a wooden beam in my basement Like this But the U part was like this And the U piece of metal was welded to a 1 inch by two inch flat piece of metal with four screw holes. So I screwed it to the beam. And locked a chain to it (I have two padlocks I used, both use one key each, and each key works for both locks). I keep one for a back-up, and just tell people, (if they ask) that it only came with one, for both locks.. Anyways. I shackled the chain to my ankle. with the other padlock, but I did it in a way, that I could slip it, Much like this escape But I linked it up tighter than normal I dont know why.. And then I decided to give me an insenative to slip out, so I threw the key.. lol. (A kid took my other key on superbowl night when I was doing escapes for people) The chain was 20 feet. And I found out I could not slip it over my ankle even much less my heel because it was so tight!!! And I sat there for about 1 hour trying to get out of it. I tried from my ankle, Then I tried from the Uclamp thing, and it would not come off the beam. I was in my room, and there was plenty of stuff for me to do. So after realizing i was not getting out until someone came home, I take a nap for about 10 mins, and messed with some cards. and eventually tried to pick the "Anti-Pick" Lock (The pins are triangle so the pick always slips off Sucked if there was a fire huh? lmfao. I probably would have had adrenaline, and broke the 350 pound test chain right?

LOL. Hilarious. If lifting weights without a spotter is a horrible idea, why would you think shackling yourself to your house without one is a good idea?! Hehe. Nah, but seriously. It's a good thing you even had someone else to come home and bail you out. Though that must have been pretty embarrassing.

Not to bad, I waited till my brother came downstairs (I dint wana freak anyone out lol). At least I dint do any of the dangerious escapes. Like with ropes wraped around your neck to keep you from bending over ect.. Normaly, escape artists, can shake chains off (If in a strait jacket). But I did it as simple as possible this time, Chined to the beam, and my ankle.. Could not shake anything lol..

[eppy]

Oh jeez. you and your magic if somebody would have broken into your house you would have saved them some time tying you up

Yeah, but still...when you're home, that's when you want to be as safe as possible. I mean, you're the escape artist, not me, but I would figure that you wouldn't want to do something at home unless you had the kinds of precautions that you don't have in public (like someone to bail you out). I mean, hell, what happens if your family gets delayed for some reason, and you're stuck there for like 6 hours, because of a delay? That would suck. o.O Oh jeez. you and your magic if somebody would have broken into your house you would have saved them some time tying you up LMFAO! Another good point!

Aha yeah, I thought I could slip it, but it was just to tight, Oh well you learn from mistakes. Another good thing it was not underwater. I think I could have got out if I was in real danger. Next time I will use handcuffs attached to the chain, or zip ties, or rope. (Alot easier to slip even if they are tight..) OH DARN!! I could have shimmed the like!! There was an old soda can in my room I could have used! I am so dumb lol.

This sounds like it would make a good short story.

[magical mike]

Har Har Abra lmfao. But seriously i bet it could ;D

[Oneironaut Zero]

OH DARN!! I could have shimmed the like!! There was an old soda can in my room I could have used! I am so dumb lol. You can shim a padlock? I know how to shim cuffs, but I didn't know you could shim a padlock.

[Abra]

I was being serious. I expected a story. Surely, you weren't calm the whole time.

[cuddleyperson]

...dude what if you lived alone or your mum had gone for a weekends...like days with no food or water... or even death. Imagine when they found your body, " it seems a murderer chained him in place and let him starve", " god what a sadistic bastard", "hmm what if he chained himself here because he was practising being an escape artist but couldn't get out, so it's an accident?", " no ones that retarded you fool"

[uppooloo]

lol i just recently handcuffed one of my hands with a really old pair of handcuffs....the bad thing was i had a key. the key got jammed and i couldnt get it off. good thing i didnt cuff both hands. i ended up with those on my hand for 2 days before i sawed it off with a hacksaw.(just like the movies) the handcuffs belonged to a friend of mine. his grandfather was a state trooper back in the fifties....lol

Derrrrrrrrrrrrr Well, it'll make a good anecdote for your Parkinson interview when you're the next Houdini.

[magical mike]

AHa your right! Parkinson! This is greate patter, or presentatation for when I am escaping from strait jackets in public! (It can be part of my danger speech). I think if it were for a weekend, I would gotten out one way or another.. (I would never of done this if I lived on my own, I would be doing it in public more lol)..

[Marvo]

This could have happened to the best of men.

[magical mike]

I will upload so pictures I took last night

[Marvo]

By the way, edit your story so that a demon comes in and rapes you, where at first you cry, but then you start to enjoy it. You'll be become famous on stupid bondage hentai forums. Oh and making yourself into a girl is a good idea. Girl magicians are hot.

[magical mike]

ummm... I am realy freaked out. lol. Would I have to join the bodage forums? (Downloading pics to my computer now)

[Black_Eagle]

Oh man, this reminds me of that time I locked myself in my own closet. The external doorknob came off so the internal doorknob would just spin and not turn the bolt. I went inside and closed the door for some reason, the fact that the doorknob was missing completely slipped my mind. I got locked in there for quite some time until my brother passed my room as I was banging on the door. When he found me, he rubbed it in my face and laughed hysterically for a couple minutes before actually letting me out.

[magical mike]

lol, thats why I dint scream when they came home. I just waited till he came downstairs. And I said "Brent come here, I lost my key" And he found it lol.. (I am trying to upload these pictures, but when I click up load on photobucket, they dont show up..)

[Shift]

Why throw the key? Unless you have someone there to help you, you should always have a way out. The thing about the house burning down seems really funny until you actually do end up burning to death. Have a cell phone on you, or just don't throw the key away? I mean even if you had someone down in the basement, what if they started to seizure or something and you couldn't get out to call 911? I dunno just seems excessively unnecessary and potentially dangerous.

[Rozzy]

but funny..... hehe

[De-lousedInTheComatorium]

Wait... this really would make a great short story.

[magical mike]

Yeah shift I know lol. like I said, if I absolutely needed to get ou ans fast. my adrenaline wou;ld help me. I only made a simple mistake locking my ankle up. Heres some pictures (Of course this is a reenactment) lol In this picture you see a strait jacket (Left) 20 foot chain, some rope, 2 marine shackles, 2 pad locks, and one key to the padlock (Those other two keys go to a gun lock lol i dont know why its there) And a snickers wraper (I found it when I was trapped and ate it lmfao).. That is the post I was chained to (You can see the U clamp thing). Also in the picture is my hanging bed , oh and my sleeping bag I took to new Mexico on a trek. It was expensive, and it has to stay hanging up, because its down or something.. Also you see various cards on the wall. I was on day.. More of my bed, cards, post, other junk Close up of the clamp thing. I used special nails that pushed outwards on all sides to prevent it self from being pulled out. You can see some scratches were I yanked the chin against it.. This pole, is actually my unfinished death plow escape. What your seeing here, is were the hands are tied. shackled, or hand cuffed to. (The U clamp thing actually is to hold your shoulders, or neck back to the post). While your hands reach back to that thing in the picture. Backing it hard to breathe, also you have to stay standing, because theres a chain around your neck, and your shoulders keeping you from bending over to breathe, and your arms are bent behind the pole, so you cant bring your arms in front. (Obviously I could not hook my own self up in this thank god lol).. Its called the Death Plow because its a pole, and it keeps you from blowing (Make your body bigger when getting tied up, so you cant relax and have the ropes or chains lose ).. Oh were this is located, is about a little lower than waist high.. Again more of my room, and another escape I am working on. "The strain train chair" lol its an inside joke lmfao.. more bed. I thought this was cool Were it should have been.. Were it was.. (I linked it ONE to tight.) Check out my double jointed thumb.. Makes it easy to slip chains and cuffs.. To bad no double jointed ankle.. No I have two legs.. and then I through it out there.. Yep.. About to slip it.. I did that to try and give it some slack.. But it was not enough.. Damn it.... Well.... I wonder if I can drink the fluid in my lava lamp.. A little bit of water that I had in a bawls.. I have a toilet! Dream journal, I can write my story in here for someone to find lol.. ohhh some magic an ass load of old cards I put in this bad lol.. More cards I had a fine source of water.. Thats in my room.. I could blink the front porch lights on and off as S.O.S. for someone to find me Razor blades... for eating. I could kill myself, as a last resort.. for boardem Hey what do you know!? maybe it can help me?! Bottom right.. Great escapes.. Page 160.. Of no use....... I bonded myself in them lmfao.. And a real terrorist would tie one ankle at a time, like I did myself, not your ankles together.. if they did, they are stupid..
