How to Escape a Handcuff.

Handcuffed? Here’s how to escape just like professional escape artists, using only a hairpin. Hit play or go to Link [YouTube] (Of course, the best way to escape a handcuff is *not* being put in one by obeying da law!)

    Oh surely no one who writes for something as cool as "neatorama" really believes that everybody who winds up in hand cuffs has broken the law! Or, alternatively, that anybody in hand cuffs is a law breaker! Would that the world were so "neat" and well defined - but it ain't!

    i hope i won't be a culprit to escape a handcuffs, but nevertheless the trick stands in good stead.

    Apparently you don't have an ex-girlfriend with a strange sense of humour. This would have come in handy a couple of years ago.

    Great to know when the significant other forgets you there in bed handcuffed to the post and then you remember your parents/in-laws are visiting and have a set of keys.

    I don't know... I think handcuffs like these are getting to be as rare as bobby pins. Here in Europe I think everybody uses those plastic strip things which are impossible to escape. They are disposable, light and anyone can carry enough of them in their pocket to handcuff a dozen protesting teenagers.

    @Storm

    You're right alot of police and security forces use the plastic doohickies to cuff down 'perps, however, to cuff someone to a radiator or a bed post doesn't hurt to keep a set in hand.
