Many years ago (when I was far more flexible and in better shape ) during an extended 6 hour session I was placed in a humbler with my hands in bondage mitts that where cuffed behind my back. Unable to straighten up because of the humbler, I was forced to stand crouching in a sort of partial squat. That quickly put strain on my thighs. The Domme then attached the D rings in the mitts to a cable running to a block overhead and then down to a hand winch mounted on the wall. Putting tension on the cable forced me to bend over and pulled my arms upwards putting tension on my shoulders.

If I tried to stand taller to ease the growing pain in my shoulders it increased to pressure on my balls. Any attempt to ease my shoulders by squatting lower increased the strain on my thighs and shoulders. The position rapidly became pure misery. It's easy to understand why strappedo was a real life torture technique.

The Domme told me I'd be there for 60 minutes but if I wanted out early all I had to do was ask. The catch? I'd get 1 hard cane stroke for every minute less than 60 I lasted, followed by a generous application of capsaicin cream on my freshly welted ass.

No, I didn't make 60 minutes and yes, capsaicin burns like hell and doesn't fade away for what feels like forever!
