Moments of Regret: A U-Lock Around Your Neck

[Strychnine]

You use a U-lock to secure your bike because most things can’t cut through it: Bolt cutters, hacksaws, most portable tools. So when you put it around your neck, lock it, and the key breaks off in the lock, well, it’s pretty much FML.

Wow, we are fucked as a Species

[Sleeper]

haha. Yeah not such a good idea, but you never think the key is going to fail. I would have locked it around a light pole somewhere.

[Sean88gt]

Wonder how much his "rescue" was?

He should be forced to pay it off through volunteer work.

The other solution is to step on his face and chest, and just power lift the lock. Multiple problems solved.

So its a kick ass u-lock with a cheap locking mechanism, sweet.

That's what I always use to get my masterlock jacob's ladder off.

Should have done the world a favor and cut his head off.

I had a friend of mine put one of those huge zipties around his neck and couldnt get it off. We kept telling him to stop messing with it until his dad came out and cut it off. But he didnt see the logic in that. His face turned a pretty deep shad of purple and he had this look like he knew he was going to die. His dad finally came out and the zip tie was so tight he couldnt get a pair of dikes under them to cut it off. He finally took out his pocket knife and said ¨this is gonna hurt real bad¨. Then jambed to kinfe under the zip tie and cut his neck so bad he had to go get stichtes. He got the zip tie off though.
Moral of the story-dont put stuff around your neck.

I always tell people the ultimate assassin weapon would be one of those industrial zip ties with the handles. You could turn someones neck into an hour glass and they would be completely 100% fucked.
