Federal Escape by Ronjo
Hello friends,
If you are searching for that one BIG trick to enhance your show, we've got it!
Federal Escape by Ronjo is the ultimate mail bag escape and the perfect big effect for many types of performers. It really does pack flat and really does play big. You can use it in a house party. You can use it in an auditorium. it weights about 4 lbs and folds up really small.
Federal Escape: A very different kind of escape...A 7' tall canvas mail bag, 2 padlocks and a solid steel bar are all examined. The spectators are given the keys. You enter the bag and the bar is woven through 16 brass grommets at the top of the bag. The padlocks are locked at both ends. A curtain is draped over you. Seconds later, you escape!
Over the years, there have been several variations on bag escapes. For many reasons, ours without a doubt is the finest on the market.
Lets look at the facts.
1. Our bag, steel bar & locks are all made in the USA.
Some bags especially the ones from India have that tell-tale musty smell that will never go away.
2. Our bag is supplied with quality Master Locks that are keyed alike. Some other bags, do not come with locks, while some of them come with cheap locks that not only won't lock unless you hold the locked closed but use the key to make it lock, compounded by the fact that the locks are not keyed alike and either key will fit in the each keyhole. Do you have any idea how complicated that can be when you are in a confined space that gets very warm rapidly and you can't control your volunteers actions?
3. Speaking of getting warm inside, our light weight but heavy duty fabric is the most comfortable bag. It is big and roomy, not as hot as other bags and allows some light in. Some other bags are pitch black or close to it. Not to mention, it doesn't smell. Did I mention our bag doesn't smell?
4. Our bar is solid steel. Not chrome plated. The chromed bars look friendly not menacing but that is not the real problem with the chrome bar. The real problem you see is the cheap plating and the wear and tear. Use the chrome bar just a few times and you will notice that the chrome will flake off in and around the area that makes the effect work. This is more than unfortunate because now the gaff is exposed.
5. The gimmick in our bar is "hidden in plain site" yet 100% Innocent and unless you know how, can not be maneuvered by accident. Some other bars, the gimmick is exposed and suspicious. With the chrome one, ascetically an exact copy of ours looks fine until you actually use it.
6. Our grommets are big & menacing looking. Some others are just puny looking. Ours are strong and will not bend, rust or tarnish. Some others will do some or all. Also our grommets are smooth. We've seen some that have sharp edges putting you and/or your spectators in possible danger.
7. We're priced right $99.99. You'll find bags ranging from $69.99 to $150.00. You do the math on that. You are either getting ripped off buying an inferior product and still paying close or way over paying for an inferior product.

Here is a presentation of several variations of the Mail Bag Escape, as well as a brief history of the escape and marketed versions of the effect. Different presentation ideas are covered.
Until next time,
Thanks for reading.
