security

What is the most secure way to restrain someone. By secure I mean the most strict and intimidating. So they can't move a muscle. Any ideas?

Totally immobilizing a person is amazingly difficult. The way we are physically put together tends to allow for some range of motion no matter what one does. To see this in play, take a look at any of Tickle Abuses sample clips over in the TA sub-forum. Tommy builds some of the most restrictive bondage devices in the world, and even so, his lees still maintain some minor degrees of freedom.

Any approach with rope will require resistance bondage, where the subject is tied very strictly, even painfully, and is designed to cut motion by providing pain as a reward for moving. You still will see motion.

Devices like Tommy's can be very effective, but are costly, need to be custom built, and take up space.

Perhaps the most effective thing an average person can deploy is a wrap bondage, utilizing saran wrap to immobilize the subject. With a full neck to ankle wrap you can pretty much remove a lot of degrees of motion. You'll still see full body thrashing, but that can be damped with a strap down system. In any case care needs to be taken with wrap bondage as the subject can have overheating and dehydration issues if kept wrapped too long, or if they struggle fiercely.

To answer your question specifically, equipment like Tommy uses is the most strict and intimidating in common use today.

In agreement with "Myriads". We (humans) are amazingly capable creatures, able to wriggle out of amazingly tight bondage. I myself prefer to be tied quite tightly, leaving as little "wiggle room" as possible. This was achieved in a spread-eagle position, arms and legs "stretched" tight. Prior to tying my feet, my knees were wrapped up with tight, either with knee wraps or medical wrap (this is a bit more difficult to do than it sounds, as it requires maneuvering into a comfortable position, or it's noticeable pain). My elbows were wrapped up with good ol' neckties, and the ties on my ankles and wrists were stretched tight.

Still for all of this, I still was able to wiggle around a bit. It sounds like it would be more restrictive bondage than it actually is. It should also be noted, that I started "feeling the burn" about 30 minutes into it. I guess some people could go longer, either out of endurance or taking Ibuprofen or a muscle relaxer prior (personally never tried that).

You can probably find some solid, restrictive equipment at a local dungeon or BDSM club, though you would have to rent the room it's in out, assuming they would even do such a thing.

If you have the time, money, patience, and know-how, you could make yourself some stocks, either purely foot/ankle stocks, or also some hand/wrist ones too. I never tried my hand at that, as I have zero experience with carpentry.

Nice. Thanks for the advice. What about a vac bed? Has anyone tried that? What about putting someone in a good box with their head sticking out and then filling it with expanding foam. That sounds hard. You probably have to make sure it didn't reach the neck and need holes to expand out of on the sides so the foam won't crush them.

 

[Myriads]

Vac beds are very effective at immobilization, but are a bit pricy and very loud. They don't look all that intimidating either.

Your box idea would work better simply packed with sand. Filled up, and sealed it would indeed keep the body within it in place. But you are once again moving toward custom construction, and high expense.

There are vac beds that can be shut off and they will hold the vacuum. The you pour ice and ice water all over your victim
