How To Escape From A Straitjacket The David Zanthor Way
Magician and escapologist, David Zanthor, reveals the age old illusion that got him out of Bedlam.
Step 1: You will need
Step 2: How Its Done
Getting out of a strait is easy, the secret is making sure you do exactly what you just saw Zanthor do. Oh, and see if you can buy a magic straitjacket - this isn't essential, but they have a bit more room and make the whole thing easier.
First struggle with the jacket trying to gain your arm purchase against the heavy canvas, then dislocate your shoulder like Mel Gibson in Lethal Weapon. Don't worry, you don't really have to dislocate your shoulder, just pretend you have. After all, pretending is fun.
Now slip one arm over your head thus freeing your arms to wiggle around like a couple of squid tentacles.
Next undo the neck strap, just the top one should be enough, you'll be able to undo the buckle with your fingers through the canvas sleeve. Now it's the fun bit - from this point on you can get out of the jacket with ease but remember, make it look hard. Flail around like a taser victim in a library, lock one elbow into the madcoat, and add drama to the event any way you can.
When you're ready, shake yourself to freedom and sponge up the approval of bricky and chippy alike.
Tips & Comments
hey he seems fatter in this vid O_o dunno why ... Awesome !!! :D thanks for the trick
Zanthor, you have done it again my wobbly bellied friend...amazing stuff, you make Blain and Angle look like hacks.
this wouldn't work if they'd done up the gusset strap over the crotch, so if you were escaping from a mental hospital this is not so helpful.
