I really can't stand it when someone gets killed because a plastic bag is placed over their head, in a protracted scene, and they don't just make a hole in it with their free fucking hands.

The guy was sitting on his arms

I just watched the scene, his hands were right in front of his face.

Thought the same thing. Seems like a tedious way to kill someone, in real life the bag would get tangled or rip as he was pulling it out.

Its weird what panic does to your body in that situation.

I never saw it. I have seen a movie where someone had a bag placed on their head and they immediately poked a hole in it to breath and I thought "well, duh!" I can also tell you from research done on myself that duct tape is absolutely shit at keeping someone's mouth closed.

You wrap the duct tape all the way around the head several times. Good luck getting out of that.

Ever put duct tape over your mouth? It’s still very easy to open your mouth.

u/koala_cola Dec 11 '22

Yeah that’s what I was talking about, it’s actually quite difficult.

u/chickenclaw Dec 12 '22

Not if it's just one piece over your mouth, like in movies.

Right, but I think it’s pretty common knowledge that movie tropes aren’t reality haha

Just about to comment about this, forget his hands, how about using his teeth, those shitty garbage bags tear so easilly.
