When they showed a closeup of the shackles,
it looked like there was room for *two* wrists in each one.
Same with the ankle shackles.

I gotta wonder how much it cost to move the "Blades of Death" from Vegas 
to NY? Probably a truck and a teamster were involved....
And how much was the "Special permit"?

Whatever the total cost was,
I would have much preferred if that money were spent on a hilarious 
remote segment where Dave works at Arby's.
