Unwilling Suspension	comment	A Bound and Gagged prisoner is suspended from the ceiling, usually by a rope. This is not usually intended for torturing the prisoner, but in reality, this could cause undue pressure on the body, and bad blood flow. Perhaps even dislocate something — there's a reason why BDSM models engaging in suspension art tend towards the light-weight and extremely flexible end. In most fiction, the prisoner does not appear to suffer any particular physical discomfort (If the viewer thinks too much about this, it results in Disbelief of Unwilling Suspension). Hanging by the wrists, a common variation, would in Real Life quickly cause permanent damage to the hands and within a few hours cause death by suffocation/"Suspension Trauma", not quite unlike a crucifixion. Many a dungeon has a prior inhabitant still hanging by their wrists in skeletal form. Sometimes the victim is only hanging on the wall or tied to a beam or cross rather than the ceiling, though still usually off the ground. Sometimes this trope involves only suspending the arms of the victim rather than the entire body, which can be used to justify this trope more, as the victim could conceivably last longer if they actually have contact with the ground. Of course the other physical and psychological impacts of being restrained for long periods of time will be entirely ignored. Reasons for using this trope include: It provides for more effective immobilization of the prisoner. Tie somebody to a chair and they will be able to maneuver the chair toward a Conveniently Placed Sharp Thing nine times out of ten. Hang them from the ceiling and they have nothing to get traction against. Also, enough rope to hold someone's weight will also be enough rope that it's hard to get out of, especially if the Real Life consequences kick in. The victim can be suspended above a chasm, piranha pond, Spikes of Doom, or other Death Trap, as a disincentive from struggling loose. Author Appeal and/or Fanservice. Simple Rule of Cool. Simple Rule of Symbolism. When a hero gets captured, especially after Take Me Instead, usually this serves as the Crucified Hero Shot. In rare cases, the villain may actually be doing this to deliberately hurt the prisoner. Favorite victims seem to be The Hero(es) or the Damsel in Distress (especially a princess and/or the President's daughter). Compare Chained to a Rock. See Also: Crucified Hero Shot with which this trope often overlaps, mainly because all of the logical problems this trope presents were accounted for and exploited in crucifixion, which was basically a preexisting deconstruction of this trope. Dangled by a Giant, where a gigantic character dangles a smaller person by holding the back of their shirt between their fingers, which is usually done against the smaller character's will. Compare: Casual Crucifixion

Unwilling Suspension / int_10b03dcf	comment	Batman: Arkham Asylum: Countless times, you can do this to terrified mooks. Before dropping them on their head as their teammates patrol underneath. Repeated with the other games in the series. Eventually, the mooks may get wise to this and start destroying the indoor gargoyles you do this from. This happens to Commissioner Gordon in the final level, bats thinking he'd already left the island. Reprised in the sequel, where Two-Face does this to Catwoman at the beginning of the game, and Batman then does this to Two-Face afterwards. If you interrogate a Riddler informant near a ledge, Batman will naturally perform a High-Altitude Interrogation on them. Once he has his information he'll drop them, leaving them hanging upside down from a cable. If the fall is short enough, however, they'll just fall.

Unwilling Suspension / int_1b386512	comment	Commonly used in Ranma Â½. When Principal KunÅ� tries to force Ranma into obedience by knocking Akane out, then dangling her from the ceiling. Doesn't work — she breaks free immediately when she wakes up and gives him a piece of her mind (and a footprint on his face). In the same story arc, Ranma later gets tied up and hanging from the ceiling. Unfortunately for Principal KunÅ�, he omits to secure Ranma's legs, and the martial artist is very adept at fighting with them, even holding a bamboo staff between his toes. Done to Ranma again to use him as bait for a mirror duplicate of his female side. Then they went off to have dinner. Hey, at least they left his meal out in a tray for him... just out of reach. HappÅ�sai, more than once, as punishment for his indiscretions and just to keep him out of the way. Akane (pictured above) is surprised to find herself tied up in a tree as the "prize" for Ranma's second major fight with RyÅ�ga.

Because the Retro Rocket has no Artificial Gravity unless under acceleration, any cargo is held in place by a spiderweb of elastic webbing throughout the cargo bay. The Maquis prisoners they're transporting are also kept there, heat-sealed between the layers of webbing over the cargo-loading hatches. However, this also means that all of them survive when Voyager is hurled across the galaxy because the webbing absorbs the force of the decelerating rocketship.

Later on in Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha ViVid, this is played more comically when Otto and Deed catch Chantez holding a sparring match with Vivio without their supervision, and Otto punishes Chantez by restraining her using a tortoise shell bondage bind, after which Deed uses ropes tied to her wrists and ankles to suspend her from a tree, all while calmly explaining to Vivio that what she did was wrong.

Even Dresden, who despises the man, acknowledges that it must be excruciatingly painful and sympathises. In a later book, Dresden himself is tied up with his wrists above his head for hours, but the only ill effects he suffers besides lots of wrist pain equating to carpal tunnel syndrome is a loss of his magic due to running water being poured over his head. Oddly enough, in that same book, Dresden's vampire-infected ex-girlfriend Susan is tied up hanging from a magical rope by Dresden for a short time, to keep her from attacking and killing him in a blood-lust-driven fury. They then engage in a very ill-advised consensual sexual encounter with her in that state. This being the DF and Butcher, consequences from this bad judgement do eventually ensue.

She gets eliminated anyway and, not wanting to lose her, Geoff yells after her that he didn't vote her off. It saves his relationship, but it draws Duncan's ire. When it's time to sleep, he ties Geoff up in his sleeping bag and drags him outside to spend the night dangling upside-down from a tree. For the only iteration of "Brain Blast" ever, Geoff gathers the peanut gallery, which in "Aftermath II: Revenge of the Telethon" consists of Justin, Harold, Beth, Eva, Trent, Sadie, and Katie. The seven of them are tied up and hung above a tank filled with hungry sharks. As they're slowly being lowered, Brainzilla is tasked with defusing a bomb blindfolded to save them. Due to a hit to the head, Brainzilla returns to being Izzy, and she hits the bomb with a hammer. It blows up the contraption alongside the rest of the stage, injuring but still freeing the peanut gallery from their predicament. Ezekiel abducts Chris and hangs him upside-down from the mine ceiling above a vat of toxic waste in "Zeek and Ye Shall Find". Despite the danger, Christ taunts his captor until Ezekiel sics two rats on the rope holding Chris up. Only just before the rope would be gnawed through does Chef enter the scene and chase the rats away, but it takes a fight with Ezekiel before Chris can be freed.

They have to find a way to fight against the spirit despite being upside-down and only with a limb or two available. A more gruesome take happens in one of the Screaming Author Bad Ends - RosÃ© is grabbed by wire from various directions, which hoists them into the air and pulls with such force that it bends their joints in unnatural directions, eventually killing them.

Then the cage opens and he falls down until the chain brutally stops him (a shock that would certainly have killed a human, but he's Asgardian). Hence Thor is left dangling before the realm's master, Surtur. The ensuing conversation is a bit impaired by the chain slowly spinning Thor away from facing Surtur, forcing the villain to stop monologuing until Thor turns around again.

Blues, with a Lamp Shade on the dangers, plus joined by Rock Man. This seems to be The Thing To Do for Distressed Dudes in Bob and George. So Mega Man gets it, too, and it's George's Fate Worse than Death. First of all, the Author was there. And then there was Nate — where it's not only a robot, it's admitted to be torture.

Unwilling Suspension / int_b8e7bb8	comment	Super Sentai shows that this trope isn't VERY effective when used in a room with fire NOT below the victim (and if the hands are not placed behind, usually). In Dai Sentai Goggle Five, Miki gets trapped into an evil picture diary and gets suspended in a spread-eagle position, then the picture diary gets burned, which in turn, surrounds her in flames. Instead, she makes a flip, then uses the fire to burn the ropes. In Dengeki Sentai Changeman, Mai gets taken hostage and suspended with hands above her head, inside a room. Then, Buuba blasts her room, putting fire inside it. Again, she flips around, burnt the ropes using the fire created. In Hikari Sentai Maskman, both Momoko and Haruka are tied up this way in the episode where they are supposedly brainwashed by the Thief Knight Kyros to become bank robbers. This is more effective since Kiros did not use fire in any form, and instead uses spikes of doom, and both girls are only able to escape due to the boys' timely Big Damn Heroes. Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger vs. Space Sheriff Gavan: The Movie: the Gokaigers are going to be executed by firing squad by the Space Police, and are held in place this way.

Part of the end game reveal that Konrad was dead long before Walker arrived, and was hallucinating all along. The soldier and civilian who are strung up are actually dead, decaying corpses.

Unwilling Suspension / int_eb018af7	comment	Tricks Dedicated to Witches is a rare instance where it is used as a form of torture. The church's method in order to break Liese and cripple her hands is to string her up with her wrists pulled and stretched above her head, with the floorboard manacle cuffed to one of her ankles being used to apply pressure. Her expression makes it clear that it's a painful experience and her wrists even start to bleed from it.

Some of the Thunder Science Security force's fates at the hands of Tail is this. While in the process of being transfurred, a latex will emerge from the head and lift them up, leaving them dangling and helpless (either in a kneeling position, or barely moving their limbs).

Also in the series premiere, after Keroro is first discovered by Fuyuki and Natsumi. Attempting to escape by slipping out of the ropes only makes it worse as the ropes stop short at his oversized head and tighten around his neck. We see a variant in one brief flashback — as punishment for wetting the bed, young Fuyuki had a bamboo threaded through his pajamas to hang him up to dry alongside his bedding.
