You should always practice removing your handcuffs before trying tricks like this!!!!!
Yes, any smuck can use a bobby pin, safety pin or paper clip to open a pair of handcuffs, but before locking yourself up like this you should always practice, practice, practice. And its probably a good idea to keep your real handcuff key nearby in case you destroy your bobby pin, safety pin or paper clip. US priest's 911 call 'after getting stuck in handcuffs' By Mark Hughes, New York 9:03PM GMT 07 Jan 2013 A US priest has taken a leave of absence after he apparently phoned the emergency services to report that he was stuck in a pair of handcuffs, according to an audio clip released by an American newspaper. The priest, from Springfield, Illinois, is also reported to have been wearing “some sort of gag” when police arrived, according to the Illinois Times newspaper. The newspaper released audio of the 911 call in which the priest, whose voice is muffled, tells the operator: “Hi there, I’m stuck in a pair of handcuffs. I’m going to need help getting out before this becomes a medical emergency.” Apparently struggling to hear him, the operator asks the priest to repeat his problem, before asking: “You’re stuck in a pair of handcuffs?” He replies: “(I was) playing with them and I need help getting out.” The Diocese of Springfield said that the Bishop Thomas Paprocki granted the priest’s request for a leave of absence before Christmas. A spokesman for the diocese of Springfield refused to comment further on the priest’s current whereabouts or status, adding only: “He came to the bishop before anyone was aware of the incident. He came to the bishop and asked for help and was granted leave.”
Priest's 911 call after getting stuck in handcuffs goes viral 10:55 PM, Jan 7, 2013 Written by Kevin Held SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (KSDK) - A Springfield, Illinois priest remains on a leave of absence after a bizarre emergency and a call to 911. It was just days ago that the now infamous 911 call was released to the Illinois Times newspaper. It's gone viral on the internet, and people all over the world want to know what Father Tom Donovan of St. Aloysius Church was doing November 28 with handcuffs and a mask. Father Donovan asked for a leave of absence, according to diocese spokeswoman Kathie Sass. While headline writers are having a field day with the priest who was tied up at the moment, the episode remains painful for church members. "It's hard to see something happen to one of our priests and we continue as a diocese, especially the parishes where Father Donovan worked, continue to offer our prayers for his well being," Sass said. What was Father Donovan doing? Was he alone the whole time? What's his future with St. Aloysias? Those questions remain at this time. KSDK |
