I woke up while being handcuffed once.

Full illustrated story [here](http://rockhoppersdailygrind.blogspot.com/2008/01/handcuffed.html).

Basically, some friends broke into my house and handcuffed me as a practical joke. Then they left to go to breakfast. I escaped before they returned, so hilarity didn’t ensue as they expected. I destroyed their handcuffs, and managed to make it to class on time anyway.
