Here is one of my all time favourite escape tricks! Escaping from a hogcuff can be done in many ways, depending on how much slack there is. This week however, I thought I would try a self hogcuffing first, and then escape my own predicament. It turned out to be quite hard (even the self hogcuffing LOL)! If you are a fan of self cuffing you will have to study this video and the pictures. Do try this at home, but always have someone stand by for an emergency rescue… even if it can be rather embarrassing…
I had seen this giant handcuff on other websites. It fits around your neck, so I just HAD to get one! I will demonstrate it in today’s video diary :-) The real escape challenge with these things is you can not see the keyhole, because it is under your chin. In the video I was lucky, the key went straight in. So I tried it again, this time with the keyhole on the other side…
Want to get your own neck cuff? Here’s a shop that sells them: www.steelbound.co.uk.
Somehow it seemed like a good idea to handcuff my wrists to my bed, use legirons to connect my ankles to the same side, and put the key in front of me. It looks impossible, because when I bend over I can still not pick up the key with my teeth. Picking up the key with my toes is also impossible, because of the leg irons. Can you guess how I escaped? I’m quite resourceful, remember? ;-) This is a fun escape for everyone to try at home! But remember to have someone with you, because if you drop the key, you will be in big trouble!!
Here is a preview (not HD quality) of the challenging bit:

I love fan requests! I received an email from someone who asked me if I could do my own make up in handcuffs. I don’t typically spend an hour in front of the mirror, so it should not be too difficult to do a simple make up job in my trusty speedcuffs! I hope this is what you wanted to see! If you have any other requests, please email them to me, I love doing stuff for you guys :-)
A new item in my collection, these lovely Hiatt’s handcuffs! They are from 1960, or maybe the model is called 1960, I don’t know. I will have to look it up! The key is very strange, but that’s good, because I have too many cuffs which open with the universal key (that’s not good for escape challenges, different keys are much more fun!). I made a video and some pictures to show you my new cuffs. As it happens I found an article about handcuffs, which I will read while cuffed in these new restraints.
Anahí is such a sweet girl. It almost feels wrong to trick her… almost… She keeps asking to do these challenges, because she doesn’t understand why I win almost every time! This time I am really mean to her, but she doesn’t even notice it. I wonder if you can see what tricks I use to win in this (very big) video? I think only the experts out there know what devious things I did to poor Anahí…. but there seem to have a lot of handcuff experts reading my blog, so go ahead… spot my tricks and post them in the comments below! ;) I think I will explain everything to Anahí this week, so we can really do fair matches (which I will still win, of course).
Remember our big race? Anahí lost and had to pay for drinks! But now she wants a rematch, because she thinks I’m not being fair. She says I have more experience. Well… let’s do it! This time, Anahí will escape from one pair of hinged cuffs, and I have to get out of one hinged and one chain pair. We handcuff each other, and I secretly made sure the keyholes were facing away from Anahí’s hands (LOL). Luckily she doesn’t know about this trick, so she put mine on the right way. Let’s see who wins this time!
Me and Leley went to the beach recently. I brought two pairs of hinged handcuffs, because I really wanted to try playing beach volley in cuffs… LOL! :-) Leley is getting used to doing everything in handcuffs when I am around, I think she was as curious as I was. I picked hinged cuffs, because it would limit our wrists even more. We locked ourselves in the cuffs on the beach and tried to play volleyball. It’s easier than we expected! After a while, we didn’t even realise we were handcuffed. The only thing is… we are not actually very good at volleyball… so the ball just went all over the place. When we had enough, I tried to convince Leley that I didn’t bring any keys… I’m not sure if she believed me, but we spent quite some time sitting around in our cuffs :-)
Note to self: sand and cuffs = not good.
Me and Anahí thought it would be a great challenge to do a Key Search! We have handcuffed ourselves behind our backs with speedcuffs (stacked of course, thank you fans for pointing that out!). We are also in leg irons. Since the room and the bed are a big mess of clothes and other junk it won’t be easy to find anything, let alone two very small handcuff keys! Well… I’m still not sure if there were two keys in this mess to begin with, we only managed to find one during the video. Can you guess who found it? It might not be the same person who found it when we shot the pictures… :-[
I think my friend Anahí is really getting used to my hobby now. Every time she comes over we talk about handcuffs, but she still doesn’t have any herself. She has accepted a few handcuff modelling assignments, so I guess she is getting into it ;-) We decided to do a race, to see who can escape from hinged handcuffs fastest (keyholes reversed, of course), the loser pays for drinks! :-) So let’s see if Anahí has learned something! I can’t let her beat me, after all it’s MY hobby and I AM CUFFGIRL!! LOL :-D
