Handcuffs

Handcuffs are a form of restraint devices which are designed for the purpose of securing a person's wrists in close proximity to each other, limiting movements and or actions to really small degree. They comprise of two parts, linked together by either a chain, a hinge, or even a rigid bar (although in popular scifi fiction they have the link in the form of a magnetic energy beam, which of course would be way ahead of our time). Whatever is used to hold the two cuffs together has to be made out of a metal alloy that's strong enough to keep the handcuffed person/being from breaking the connection between the two cuffs, otherwise if the connection was too weak, it would defeat the purpose.

Each cuff has a rotating arm which engages with a ratchet that prevents it from being opened once closed around a person's wrist. Usually handcuffs cannot be removed without a key, rendering the handcuffed person or other living being unable to move his, her, or its wrists any more than a few centimetres or inches apart, making many tasks difficult or impossible, although this can be bypassed if the handcuffed person/being has something to pick the locking mechanism with.

Picking the lock on handcuffs is most feasible if the individual has their wrists cuffed at their front. Usually a professional law enforcement would have a person's hands behind their back, making the task of picking the lock next to impossible. This video here shows how the trick is done. However, the video is for entertainment purposes, and it's definitely NOT recommended to use either the video (or this article on 77Pacer Studios Wiki) to try to escape from the police! Besides, the cops usually have a reason to arrest someone! They would rather arrest someone who's falsely accused than let a real bad guy escape from the scene of the crime! Handcuffs are frequently used by law enforcement agencies worldwide to prevent suspected criminals from escaping from police custody. Also, neither the uploader of the video nor 77Pacer Studios Wiki is to be held responsible for any arrests being foiled because the suspect managed to defeat the handcuffs after having either watched the video or read this article or both!!

## Obtained by 77Pacer Studios

Sometime in the aftermath of the first defeat of the evil Bonestyx in September 2009, the Shelton Police Department visited 77Pacer Studios and congratulated Doctor Danno for his heroic deeds, giving him a couple pairs of handcuffs to use against other evil forces.

## July 2018: Events of *Bonestyx's Return* (2020):

When the Black Thrasher finally redeemed himself on the way to the base of 77Pacer Studios, Doctor Danno and his crew drove into the Oscowbian Forest where he was located. Upon arriving there, Danno handcuffed the Black Thrasher, arresting him for "hostility against the goodness of 77Pacer Studios".

Upon taking the former villain back to base, Danno interrogated the Black Thrasher, who explained to the Doc that he redeemed himself and turned good, and begged him to let him help defeat Bonestyx. Surprised, Danno accepted the Black Thrasher's offer, welcoming him to the good side, but warned him of the consequences of going back to his evil ways, which the Black Thrasher acknowledged.

Shortly afterwards, Bonestyx sent his army (along with a fake Bonestyx) to assault the base of 77Pacer Studios only for the entire skeleton army to be mowed down easily. The fake Bonestyx grew to giant size, but a plasma missile was fired at the giant villain, knocking him down. Not long after that, Danno and the Black Thrasher soon realized that the Bonestyx they defeated was a decoy. Black Thrasher was suspicious that it was a decoy trap, but nevertheless went with Danno to inspect the decoy.

Danno took out a .357 Magnum Revolver and fired a round at the skull to set it off, but instead of exploding like a mine, the decoy trap emitted a sleeping gas, which knocked out Danno and the Black Thrasher. The real Bonestyx then had his many fallen skeleton soldiers rebuild themselves and take the two incapacitated heroes back to his evil lair. While they were incapacitated, the skeleton soldiers took the two pairs of handcuffs from Danno, and later used them on Danno and the Black Thrasher when they woke back up and brought the two of them before the evil throne of Bonestyx.

Bonestyx and the Black Thrasher soon got into an argument over what was going on. Danno tried to break up the argument, but Bonestyx cut him off and had one of his skeleton men hold a broken piece of a mirror at Danno's throat, ordering for Danno's throat to be slit if he interrupted again. Black Thrasher criticized Bonestyx for silencing Danno, and the villain continued arguing with his former ally.

Black Thrasher later convinced Bonestyx that he had "10 pages worth of Intel. Bonestyx didn't believe this at first, but he later ordered the Black Thrasher to hand over the Intel Book, but Black Thrasher said that he couldn't do that while he was cuffed. Frustrated, Bonestyx ordered one of his skeleton men to un-cuff the Black Thrasher so he could, and so it happened. After handing over the Intel Book, Black Thrasher returned to Danno's side, and while Bonestyx was busy reading the "Intel", Black Thrasher beat down Bonestyx's men, but not without un-cuffing Danno. Though this isn't shown in the movie, Black Thrasher returned both pairs of handcuffs to Danno after defeating the skeleton soldiers that surrounded him.
