Best way to Duct Tape someone to a chair???

Post by **Mr Bean** » 2004-01-24 02:09pm

You know acutal this is almost an area of expertise amoung most techical rates in the Navy(Don't know about other services)

I can personaly attest, Yes Duck-tape and duck tape only is strong enough to hold someone upside down aginst a wall

It just takes alot

First Gove the hand with the knife in it(If he's making a fist just lay two layers down around the fist itself, one layer around the wrist)
Then bind as per everyone else suggestions

The only reason I added the gloving is because some people have "tricks" for example double or triple jointed people can get the blade out and make some leverage though I don't know if he can use this method to get free in under 60 minutes

heh...

Is he a hairy man? Because I'd suggest throwing extra duct tape to his hairy extremities just for a little extra motivation not to move around so much. It's cheap, but it'd prolly work.

I know his game. He doesn't plan on cutting the tape with the knife at all. He's in a garden-variety white plastic chair, you say? He plans on breaking the chair. That'll be easier than getting out of the tape. The knife is just a red herring to make you concentrate on making it inaccessible and not taping the other areas he'll need. (This does, of course, assume that he's smart and knows that attempting to cut out of duct tape with a closed knife that'll be mummified with more duct tape is an exercise in futility.)

Which is why I suggested taping him in a fashion where he can't get any leverage nessarry to be able to break the chair...

remember I learned about htese tricks from my siblings....

the realization that he might attept to just break the chair is just dawning on me now

is it possible to break that sort of plastic?

its your generic guarian variety chair,

New ones are hard to break, but if it's been sitting out in the weather then it's going to be much easier.

But either way it's a possibility.

Oh yes, its very possible. Try it sometime. Makes a great stress reliever. If he can get enough leverage with his feet to stand up with the chair taped to him he can just sit back down heavily and fall through the seat. Those things really aren't all that sturdy.

RE-enforce the seat with duct tape (as in, place a few yards around the seat and back to make sure they can hold up to heavier pressures. Then go about tapings his hips and thighs to the chair, followed by legs to the legs and arms to the arms. I'm trying to think of a way of making his feet somewhat immobile, but nothing's really coming to mind...

Make sure his feet are on the ground when taping, and do the ankles really securely- this eliminates up and down movement, since the feet are on he ground. For side to side, tape from the toe around both sides of the foot and round the chair leg.

Go to Goodwill and get a good chair for five bucks.

The first thing you have to ask yourself is, does your friend have a lot of body hair? Like in the arms and legs? In that case, you want to be sure to wrap a good amount of tape around their exposed arms and legs. Make sure you don't leave a spot uncovered.

I wouldn't recommend taping his balls, it might result in some unexpected castration tho.

After that, make sure you have him in a fetal position, and wrap his legs around his waist at least three times. Make several knots with his fingers and then add more tape. Tape his head too (be sure you remove any headwear, like a hat. but if he's wearing earphones leave those on).

Be careful if you tape his mouth and nose, you may want to make holes for his nostrils. If you have any sneezing powder this is a good moment to apply it. Don't tape the ears, unless you want to rip them off, which while it sounds cool it might be illegal on some states.

After you've done, make a nice bow. Also find a good place in the house that can hold some weight, and use more tape to adhere him to that. Preferibly upside down, hanging from the ceiling or something. Don't wrap it around his neck, you might kill him and then the police will have to spend a hell of a lot of your tax dollars trying to figure out if it was suicide.

Wouldn't work. OP said no tape on hear/neck.

Well, then just accidentally tape it to the top of his head, then say "oops, sorry!" and then rip it off forcefully.

Tape his feet to the fery bottom of the chair legs making sure that they're completely on the ground so he can't get up and smash the chair. Tape his arms to the arms of the chair (at the wrists, elbows and shoulders) and wrap his knife hand in tape . Tape his thighs to the chair. Tape his lower torso and upper torso to the chair. Use the remaining tape (if any) to tape the chair to the ground and to a wall. This should secure him. And if your a real bastard, you could dull his knife before hand so if he manages to get that it's still useless.

There's 2 simple solutions to the chair problem. It doesn't say that the chair has to be in an upright position. Tape him in the chair then tip the chair over. Or secure the chair to a tree/pole/post or other sturdy object so it can't be moved.

Rogue 9 · Post by **Rogue 9** » 2004-01-25 09:28pm

Tie his ankles off the ground to the chair legs, maybe?
