Zac wrenched ineffectually in his straitjacket. His skills as an escape artist would do him no good in that maximum security prison restraint.
He didn’t know whether to find help or to hide. He just stood there bewildered for a while, his bare feet cold on the damp sidewalk.
A car went by. It didn’t even slow down. No-one in that car had noticed his plight.

A HOT man if you ask me!
Thanks leatherdog!
Guys …. think YOU have what it takes to be captive of the day? Send me an email.
You guys remember the Padded Cell Inmate? A blog reader recently got in touch about this very heavy scene from a while back:
Dear Metal,
Do you still have the blog posting about the guy that went a couple weeks in a straitjacket and padded cell? John and I were wondering about it.
Thank you,
Mark
Hey Mark,
That was the infamous Padded Cell Inmate scene that was documented on the Metalbond site back in March and April 2010. Click on the Padded Cell Inmate tag below to see all the posts!

This site is all about putting men in physical restraints that they cannot get out of. But every year at Halloween, I like to pay tribute to someone who took delight in being able to defeat such restraints. That person is the great Harry Houdini, of course. He died on Halloween in 1926, at the age of 52.
Although he got locked up in handcuffs and strapped into straitjackets to ESCAPE from them, there was also an element of exhibitionism and homoeroticism in his performances. He sometimes even stripped — to his underwear or even naked — before he was locked up. And, he was also smokin’ hot.
This year, there is an exhibit at the Jewish Museum here in New York City, featuring vintage photographs and memorabilia from Houdini, including those pictured below:

And if you are not in New York City, take heart. After March 27, the exhibit will travel to Los Angeles and San Francisco — and then to Madison, Wisconsin, of all places!
