It’s not likely that I’ll be able to shoot any video for another week, so I went back to my video editing notes from 2014 and looked at the list of videos I shot in 2014 that haven’t yet been edited. I found 2 that were similar themes. They were both long enough to make clips from, but I decided I’d edit them into a single clip and hack them down to the best parts.
Coincidentally, these clips were shot exactly 1 month apart. The white thong bondage was shot on July 18 and the black speedo bondage was on August 18. In both clips, I rigged myself to be partially suspended from the bamboo pole over the peat mud. In both clips I end up with my head under the mud. I had a breathing tube in one, but not in the other. Although I did the rigging a bit different each time, I still had a serious struggle getting free. Most of the really good struggling made it into the video, even though I removed a lot of footage. Those real struggles to escape from a precarious, inverted predicament were too good to leave out.
I got pretty hard while editing and reviewing this clip. I’m surprised I made it through without a “break”. The ordeals definitely gave me some ideas for when I return to that spot, this year. I’ll have to make sure I can escape eventually. Maybe I’ll use an ice timer so I have no choice but to struggle until the ice cube melts and releases me.
The clip ended up being 30 minutes long. The last 2 minutes feature a little posing and some cleanup video. There is a short setup shot in the opening, just to set the scene. After that, the clip is pretty much non-stop struggling. I suppose I should also mention that my muddy, bound feet are featured quite prominently in this clip; in case there are any muddy foot lovers among us.

As crazy as it is, I’ve still got more video from 2014, plus my “Making of a Mud Movie” movie to finish and get on-line. I’ve been holding out on the latter for some aerial shots. I’m not sure if I’ll get them, or not.
