Ex prisoner here, got released recently after doing a few years in CDCR and this is pretty accurate The fact you added the detail of toothpaste on flossing string is amazing Great work!
Book bans are a favorite for jails and prisons, as their extreme paranoia lets them consider anything and everything as a ‘threat’. Some even place limitations on the number of books available in their ‘libraries’, with no provision for additions, ever.
Old facilities used bars. Division 1 Cook County still has them. That was where Capone was housed. Modern facilities use solid doors with an access hole for food trays etc. That's only if they are keeping inmates in cells. Very often they're actually in dorms with 40 bunk beds.
Watch MacGyver, you will learn something. These everyday items that prisoners use are similar to the everyday items used by Richard Dean Anderson's MacGyver.
The D&D ban does make sense as many campaign settings actually have "how to guides" on ESCAPING CONFINEMENT! In ways both subtle and gross, violent or not.
Ontario Canada, the prisons and detention centres have banned books with staples. Especially the calendar/planner books. The staples can be pulled out, and used as a needle, for giving tattoos. Toronto's detention centres, ban soda pop, and serve food in Styrofoam or trays, that have to be returned after each meal. They don't have Jolly Ranchers, that I remember ... but they have things like Scotch Mints etc.
OMG the Denmark one is so good! I am so tired of seeing these people fawn over criminals. Like, they are in prison for a reason so why are you crushing and fan girling over them?!?! Make it make sense! Person A is doing life for double homicide and Rpe and you think that's hot?!?! Please get yourself evaluated and checked in to the nearest mental hospital okay.
some are in there for HORRABLE things, but some of them are in for simply exposing corruption or smoking pot or other innocent or even GOOD things. also the system can always be turned around like why are illegal immagrants given 5k a month and let out of prisons when commit crimes but americans locked in prison gor YEARS for exposing corruptuion or simple things? but then ROBBERS AND MURDERORS walk free also WHY ARE THE ROTHSCHILDS the ones that ROBBED THE ENTIRE WORLD not in jail i i know why they $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$89 quadrillion RICH$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ musk is a little pheasent compared to them.
Nothing really surprising especialy the floss and wired notebooks, etc. As a second job, I taught college courses in the prisons, 84 courses over 24 years, ending this year,. And although I taught much less frequently since just before the pandemic and after the pandemic, I've had 1050 prison inmate students, although a few hundred took more than one course from me because they knew they'd learn well in my classes. My dad completed the same college program the 2nd time he was locked up when I was growing up.
Many Congratulations to Jay, Warren and Wesley on your 13M Subscribers from Maynooth in Ireland. Also I would like to take this Opportunity to wish all of you and your Family, Friends and Staff a Very Happy Perihelion Day.

As for the Jolly Rancher Ban.... the prison that I was housed in, rid the store of ranchers due to the melting and molding of the sweetness, transforming them into "JOLLY TOYS" ... If you are picking up what I'm laying down! 🤭 🫠 🤣
@@islandgal500 Not everyone can get aroused or reach climax in that way. Had a few ex GF's that got absolutely nothing from manual simulation. In some cases, it's the size. Fingers are too small, and fists are too big. I'd go further, but i'd probably get banned.
I comment as I'm watching cuz I've been to prison and seen inmates imagine up so many ways to replace something that is banned time to think about EVERYTHING POSSIBLE ❤
@@hollyhartwick3832 Sorry, no. Jolly Ranchers have never been used to make a fucking shank in any prison. The inmate would get more bang for his buck making hooch, then selling that for a real shank. Ain't no inmate running around with a fucking Jolly Rancher shank FFS.
It feels illegal to be this early to a be amazed vid good job be amazed keep up the good work and we might get to 14m by the end of the year also the British accent was beautiful
Dental floss comes in precut lengths on a holder, combined with a pick. Reach has one that allows you to use a toothbrush type handle with floss. On both, the floss is 1/2 inch long.
Absolutely the most Criminal thing here was taking the prisoners tea away, absolutely shocking, that's just not cricket 😮😉🤣🤣 This video was insane though with all the the simple things refashioned into something else. I think the redesigned use of the remote control back was the most unexpected for me. Humans when given enough time find a way unfortunately 🙁😔 Fascinating video guys, as always, thank you ❤
English secondary schooler here. I can confirm tea is a lot to us. I once took bags of sugar into my school as they wouldnt let us have sugar in our teas. I snuck it in anyway and when they found out they had to repremand me but it was clear they found it funny. Now if you excuse me im going to go have my midnight crumpets, bottle of water and Yorkshire tea.
In the uk they copy and print the letters out because of drugs and also no greeting cards except via a card delivery site online (our most popular are funky pigeon & moonpig)
I spent 90 days in Roanoke County's Finest and I bought jolly ranchers every week. I never considered making a weapon (and the girls did used to melt them together).
Vegemite and Marmite is banned in almost all, if not all Australian prisons because it has a high concentration of yeast and can be used to make alcohol.
Most people might think some if not all of the banned items are ridiculous but for those of us who grew up watching MacGyver on TV we can see what they do not. You can make some of the most outrageous things out of almost nothing at all. I personally think that's one of the reasons MacGyver was cancelled is because the things he made in the show actually worked and I'm sure some kids (or grownups) tried them out and bad things happened. Lol
AKtually, most of the stuff in macgyver didn't work. Mythbusters did a bunch of episodes that pretty much debunked many of his antics. As for the shows cancellation, it had to do the cast and crew being a bit burned out, with anderson stating that the physical demands were a bit too much for him and they wanted the show to go out on a high note, instead of meandering on.
Being British I have to say I liked the last one (especially the way you presented it). Although I think you missed out one British thing...Complaining! For instance we will happily queue...but we will happily complain about queuing. If it is not about the length of the queue we may find something else about the queue to complain about.
Slightly off on the orange jumpsuits, at least with US Federal prisons. The orange jumpsuits are only used for transport. Everyday wear is button-up khaki shirts and khaki slacks. Casual wear, like workout sweats, shorts, etc. are grey.
Two colleagues found that bubblegum (Chappies (TM)) made a good replacement head gasket during maneuvers. Understandable it would not be allowed in prisons.
More on the bubble gum they were used to jam up the mechanisms in the locks without blocking access to the keyhole. There's tons of prison hacks I learned including multiple ways to keep the doors from locking while looking like it's locked to the gaurds.
Why r ppl commenting like they already watched the video, vid is only 3 mins old yet ppl are commenting on it like they watched the whole 23 mins. (Anyways i will watch the video now so ty for the tut on how to break out of prison/j still cant believe im actually not like 1 day late on a video!)
I mean to be fair on that last one, tea is hot! It can easily be used as a weapon against guards and inmates alike, but to deprive them entirely of all tea is something I can't agree with, at the very least... how about a room temperatured small paper cup of Arizona Iced Tea? ☺️🧡🍵
I think Drugs can be smuggled very easily. You can just spray LSD liquid to any ordinary book page , And give it to the prisoner. They can use them as LSD stamps and they can sell them to inmates too for money or any other items.
I just did 6 years in a federal camp and believe it or not we had everything on this list on our commissary. Federal prisons camps are like all men’s college. I have a lot of fellow inmates compare it to living in a college dorm or a military dorm, minus the military exercises. You ever go to prison in America you definitely want to do your time in a federal prison camp!
I could never figure out why prisons allow outside items in in the first place. All letters from home should be printed inside the prison from a digital source. Basic essentials is all that should be given to prisoners, they are paying a debt to society and it should something difficult to live through.
Some books may not make sense such as the web design. IT books are massive. I own “Mike Myer: Comptia A+” computer repair is good skill to have but that book behind bar could be a lethal weapon. I clocks at 1419 pages. That’s why some titles may baffle people. IT books in general tend to be 600+ pages.
You can do a lot with nothing but time and dental floss 😂😂😂 we cut holes through plexiglass windows between our cells and the plastic thread out your mats works great as well
Can confirm they dont allow computer books though the rules of power made it through for someone. Where I am you can have playing cards in jail, but not prison. Also can confirm that these places are unfathomably, nonsensically violent.
Ex prisoner here, got released recently after doing a few years in CDCR and this is pretty accurate
The fact you added the detail of toothpaste on flossing string is amazing
Great work!
I never go to prison before
Then never do go to prison...no good.
Fun fact though,weirdly enough it's better than most county jais...l@@Huntergreatone
Hah prison basic try ohio thats the real stuff
I've never even been arrested but I done things that should have landed me there..
What you do
As a former state prisoner myself, we didn't need dental floss. We would removed string from the hem of our clothing! 😂 problem solved! 💯
No way😊
Long hair works just as well too for flossing! I've never been to jail or prison but I've been dirt poor
What did you do to end up there?
was it just as minty yeah no way
depriving brits of tea is like depriving americans of coffee. some lines just cant be crossed!
Book bans are a favorite for jails and prisons, as their extreme paranoia lets them consider anything and everything as a ‘threat’. Some even place limitations on the number of books available in their ‘libraries’, with no provision for additions, ever.
Although they wouldn't make those rules if something hadn't happened beforehand for those restrictions to be place.
It's almost like they shouldn't be allowed anything whatsoever.
22:33 - 🤣 good accent we don’t all sound that well spoken though 😂😂😂❤❤
Probably the richest accent I've ever heard

I can confirm most if not all of this because my dad worked in a prison and had to deal with all kinds of similar stuff
Hard candies are banned mainly because of their sugar. The candy is used to make hooch (prison alcohol). Not so much the weapons and drugs.
Watch MacGyver, you will learn something. These everyday items that prisoners use are similar to the everyday items used by Richard Dean Anderson's MacGyver.

13:46 Trying to pull the wool over our eyes, those weren't MTG cards but Yu-Gi-Oh! cards disguised as MTG cards.
Was literally about to say that. Had to backtrack when I saw magical scientist and delinquent duo.
Graceful Charity and Imperial Order are also in that hand. Though I admit, it's kinda cool to see Magical Scientist adapted for MTG.
You sure the baby oil isn't for Diddy disciples?

Fun fact about the jolly ranchers is that similar to obsidian they can make the sharpest blade out of any candy

When baby oil was mentioned as a banned item, I was expecting a different kind of intrusive use for it in prison.

WHAT.
Bro, they didn't ban Jolly Ranches because of "shank potential" ... its because you can make some fire ass hooch with them.
and dildos, i heard the women made dildos 😂
Or both, lol.

20:11 diddys gonna be so upset
Good one 😂

Toothpaste on floss will NOT cut steel. Instead, it requires SAND, which is harder than steel.

Sul sul! 👋 I love the videos!
For hand sanitizer to work, you need to add salt so the ingredients separate.
Forgot they banned Tabasco sauce because they were using it as pepper spray against guards.
I love your videos ❤
Don't underestimate common household items, they can come in handy to aid prison escape
Have you done time? I have and know exactly what you mean
@robbieallan6522 nah but I've seen and read true life stories of people who can use any simple item to make a breakaway from prisons
I'd sneak in jollyranchers but I'd just eat them without any ill intentions
As a Wisconsinite(who has never been to prison or jail), I can tell you that Waupun is pronounced as Wah-pon. It's Native American in name
But Myth Busters proved that its impossible to cut prison bars with dental Floss.
Are they lying???
