A few weeks ago my best friends parents went on holiday leaving him in charge of the house and keeping an eye on his dads car repair shop.
My friend Nathan is 17, 5'6" athletically built(as his hobby is cross country running), blue eyes and short brown hair. I am 15, also 5'6" and like to stay in shape playing football(of which we are both strikers) with brown eyes and blond hair.
We had just finished football practice and Nath said he had to go into the village to make sure his dads repair shop was o.k. I agreed to accompany him. After 20 min walk we finally reached our destination and Nath unlocked the door and silenced the alarm. We both walked in and locked the door behind us. After splitting up and having a quick scout around to make sure things were in order we met back at the car ramp. It was a sturdy contraption capable of lifting a car a good 10 feet or so into the air. Nath pressed the up button on the controller and the whole thing started to rise. When it was at eye level Nath issued me the challenge of hanging onto the crossbeam that was attached to the ramp to see how long i could keep gripped onto it. So, as it raised i grabbed the bar and it slowly lifted me off the ground. After only about 30 seconds the pain in my hands was too much and i dropped the foot or so to the ground. Nath laughed out loud and said he could rig it so i could last much longer hanging up there. I foolishly accepted and he disappeared into the back store. When he reappeared he had a sports bag with him. He told me to take off my shirt because what he had in store might make me sweat. So i did as he asked. He then opened the bag to reveal a length of sturdy rope and a leather belt. The belt was about 2 1/2 inches wide with a double buckle. it was clearly a weightlifting belt because it was padded. He told me to hold out my arms and as i did he wrapped the belt around my wrists twice and buckled it. It was quite slack and my wrists were still a couple of inches apart. He then fed the rope between my wrists around the belt and tied a slip knot before pulling the slip knot tight. The effect was immediate as the belt tightened around both wrists. He checked that i couldn't get loose and that the padding on the belt was doing its job. He then started lowering the ramp. At this point i stared having second thoughts, but it was too late as he stopped the ramp and started tying off the rope to the cross beam. This gave me about a foot of slack rope. He asked if i was alright but before i could respond he pushed the up button. As the ramp lifted i could feel the rope pulling at my wrists and slowly my arms were being pulled above my head.
Please let me know if you wan't me to continue
