A Czech man who found a pair of handcuffs in the garbage in the Southern Czech town of Brno decided to take them to a bar where he proceeded to bet his friends that he could free himself with the aid of a piece of wire. I wonder if this guy watched one to many episodes of McGyver?
When the 48 failed at his attempt to free himself from the handcuffs he walked to the police station to ask for help. Unfortunately for him the police didn’t believe his story. The did a background check on him to see if he’d been charged with any crimes in the past, but he had a clean record. I guess they believed he was an escaped criminal!
A locksmith finally came to his aid and freed the man. Why on earth didn’t he try a locksmith before going to the police?
I guess the moral of this story is that if you find handcuffs without any keys don’t play with them or else you might find yourself in a rather embarrassing situation!
