Don't try this at home.

Or do.  Just don't leave someone there.

Allegedly, if you wrap someone's legs around a lamp post and have them sit cross-legged, it's nearly impossible to get back up without help.

Something worth mentioning:  if you try it on your friend, don't just leave them there.  Bad things could happen.  After about 10 minutes, you start cramping, and then you pass out.  And then fall backwards.  And ribcage pressure can stop you from breathing.  And bad things happen.

 

 

Apparently this is a restraint technique they used in WWII.  And now, the kids are tryin it.
