Hey fellas, it was not apparent to me by looking at the picture of the guy bound in public at Dore Alley, but it turns out he was in a genuine heavy-duty BODY CAST (not vetrap).
Mark from Serious Male Bondage kindly sent in more information about this very heavy scene:
Hey Metal,
I’m glad you picked up that cool photo of our friend Mumman in his rigid black cast for your post ‘what happens at dore alley.’ Here is more info about that photo if you care to use it:
The material is not vet wrap, but actually medical grade fiberglass casting material. 40 rolls of fiberglass was used to make this upper-torso cast at a cost of around $6 per roll, so the total cost was around $250. Once the 40 rolls were applied and hardened, the cast was approximately ¼ inch thick. It was not necessary to use this much material to create a cast like this, however we wanted to end up with enough thickness so that the cast could be cut off and reused over-and-over again.
The man in the cast is Mumman (FetLife) and the man in the tee shirt is Mister-X (FetLife).
Our casted man was in his rigid torso cocoon for nearly 12 hours. After we left Dore Alley we continued to do photoshoots with him into the night hours. Special casting saws were used to remove the cast. Great care must me taken to ensure that the subject in the cast is fed and hydrated, and does not overheat, choke, panic or vomit. A cast like this takes at least 30 minutes to remove, so any emergency can turn into a disaster. A full body cast takes at least 60 minutes to remove. We had the cast saw with us during the entire Dore Alley visit. This type of play is not for the inexperienced newcomer, and do not use any of this information as an instructional guide. Play with bondage and fiberglass casting at your own risk.
Photos and videos of the entire casting process, Dore Alley, and the removal of the cast will be available on both SeriousMaleBondage.com and our hetero site SeriousImages.com. Our casted man wrote an article about his visit to SeriousBondage Institute, which is titled ‘Mumnan’s Bondage Adventures’ and can be viewed here:
