Push fingers within the puzzle closer together, grip puzzle with teeth, then remove one finger at a time. If this doesn't work then find a table saw...

I always hear them say "pull out! pull out!" But it makes it even harder. Only way to make do is get deep and use teeth.

Other way is to take deep breath, relax muscles and slowly pull out. Your hand gets softer and muscle not contracted, so easier to slide. No wonder they invented zen!

We call those "esposas chinas" or "chinese handcuffs"....

Kinda reminds me of an old Farside cartoon: There is a skeleton, fully dressed in an empty abandoned house and the caption reads "What REALLY happened to Houdini".

Answer of the DayMORE >>

Q: When do you need to get a medical examination?

A: Your potential employer is right! Demand for Medical exam before

A:Your potential employer is right! Demand for Medical exam before granting Z visa is to make sure, you won't be entering China in any abnormal and harmful to others condition.Few days after your arrival to China, you'll be required to complete another ME ... If ME in China will be OK, you'll get a Residence permit stamp into your book some 10-days afterwards. Imagine, you're an employer, who can sponsor my entry and work in China, but after my arrival to China would be found I carry some sickness, which would prevent Chinese .gov to issue a Residence permit. Rule is: Z visa should be converted into Residence permit in 30-days after entry to China. So, my advice is:"Complete ME in your home country and forward medical results to your employer".Z visa grant will follow shortly afterwards. Employer is not wrong at their demand for the pre-arrival ME from your home country hospital. -- icnif77
