Well - the moral of the whole story is this: if you get tied up by bad guys who are in a hurry they will probably only have access to the cheap version from Home Depot. If so - apparently you can get loose using this method.

The picture was a girl with duct tape over her mouth and zip tied. I suspect the photo had an internal link to an inappropriate site but that it wasn't the intention of the poster to post the link. I didn't delete by the way 🙂

just tried it....didn't work, she struggled for hours and couldn't get free....bonus for me!

how was that advertising an adult website. put my bloody picture back on!

Come on! Where's this picture of zipties?? I'm going to have to google "zip tie bondage" now and you know I'm going to find something interesting... the original pic will probably have been safer lol

Through my vast searching for prepper information on the internet, I came upon a really crazy idea by an ex marine on some forum.

1) Get a hacksaw blade. Snap it so it's eight inches long.
2) On the back of your pants, where the belt loops attach to... inside of the waist band, slice a one inch vertical slit on the INSIDE of the waist of your pants. This is so that the slit is facing your lower back.
3) Put the eight inch hacksaw blade inside of your pant waist through the slit.

This is a virtually undetectable escape plan. Its application could be used in a variety of situations, but mostly, it's probably the best way to get unbound inconspicuously.

Hope this makes sense. But if it doesn't, I might just illustrate a tutorial.

Makes sense to me..

There are lots of folks that have the 300 and higher rating zip ties.. I used to buy em by the case 1000 at a time. working in the oilfield they are often handy..

First of all, if you are trying to get out of zip ties, you are a criminal. Not sure why this post was started. I agree with the previous poster who knew the difference in strength of ties. As well, they never use a single tie. They use two which are looped together.

Some zipties are thicker and not easy to get away. Agreed with other post that it can be a painful ones to try.

And btw, what picture?
