sampowersmagic | Sam Powers World First Escape Stunt Training @sampowersmagic | Uploaded 7 years ago | Updated 2 hours ago
A behind the scenes sneak peak at the epic stunt training involved to execute a history making world first escape never before attempted. Commencing August 11, every night in the Ekka arena I will be bound & buckled inside a regulation straight jacket, then hoisted upside down by my feet, to a record breaking height of 110ft in the air & locked underneath a gigantic set of steel jaws held open with a piece of rope which will be set on fire. The rope takes approximately 2 minutes to burn through and snap at which time the jaws will come crashing shut with half a tonne of brute force crushing anything inside it... That “anything" will be me, so I will have less than 2 minutes to escape from the straight jacket and free myself from being crushed to death by executing a manoeuvre never before attempted in a stunt like this at such extreme height anywhere in the world... Be there to see it first, LIVE at The Ekka in 2017
