Using duct tape to cover my body?

Question

me and my friends wanted to make a youtube video

how many rolls of duct tape would it take to cover my whole body form head to toe?

Answer 1

I say 2-3

Answer 2

Duct tape comes in 60 yard lengths standard (there are other lengths available) It would depend on your height, weight and build. Taller and/or fatter would need more for example. Also if you were to wrap each arm individually would require more tape then if you were to go all the way around the arms and chest as one. Same for the legs.

I would recommend at least 3 rolls. That way you'll be sure to have enough.

This has been done before but perhaps you can email some of these people for more detailed information about duct taping oneself. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UBlUZOjw0...

Answer 3

3 or 4 rolls ;)))

Answer 4

First of all, I would not recommend doing this as it could very well be fatal. That stated:

3-4 rolls if you plan on wrapping your entire body including fingers and toes. One word of caution, however, removing duct tape from bare skin will cause patches of skin to come away with the duct tape after the tape has been on your skin for awhile. If you intend to wrap your head also, be sure to leave holes for your to breathe and above all, protect your eyes and lips. And, if you really don't care about your hair, don't protect it at all...however.....you'll regret not protecting your hair as a lot of it will pull out at the roots.

I'd recommend wearing leggings and a long-sleeved t-shirt to protect most of your body. If you have thin socks and want your toes wrapped individually, just cut off the area around your toes. You can wear thin gloves to protect your hands.

For your face, you could wear a hoodie instead of a t-shirt. That way your hair would be protected somewhat. Cover your eyes and eyebrows with gauze patches and cover your entire face and exposed neck area with gauze after the eye patches are added. Your facial and neck skin is very fragile and easily torn away with the adhesive from duct tape.

Use straws inserted into your nose so you can still breathe. You may also want to have several straws coming from your mouth also as just using your nose may not be enough.

In other words, if you want to be a mummy in duct tape, be sure you protect yourself so that you can still breathe.

I wouldn't recommend wrapping yourself up at all, but people do all kinds of things. Be sure the people who are wrapping you up are very good friends and have your best welfare in mind. You may also think about not wrapping your head at all.
