Subject: Volunteer Elli – Upper Body Tickle Sensitivity Experiment

Restraint Apparatus: Joker’s Throne (Backbend Arch Configuration)
Primary Focus: Baseline upper-body sensitivity analysis (previously untested regions)

Restraint Specifications:

Wrists: Attached to biceps (maximal underarm exposure) Torso: Wide strap across midsection (bare midriff immobilized) Lower Body: Ankles elevated, bare feet secured in open position Inner thighs held laterally (unrestricted access to medial quadriceps/sartorius regions)

Stimuli Application Protocol:

Baseline Measurements (Bare-Hand Tactile): Underarms: Light circular motions (10-second intervals) → Immediate reflexive contraction of pectoralis region. Abdominal region: Sequential tracing along intercostal spaces → Diaphragmatic spasms observed at T7-T9. Inner thighs: Alternating proximal/distal strokes → Consistent adductor twitching; laughter amplitude increased by 38% vs. plantar stimulation. Comparative Stimulus (Terrorizer 2.0 Gloves – 90-second exposure): Applied to underarms only. Notable shift from giggles to truncated, high-pitched vocalizations (see Spectrogram #3). Post-removal: Bare-hand retesting showed 22% prolonged sensitivity in axillary region. Terminal Phase (Full-Region Retest): Sustained stimuli to ribs/midriff produced cumulative breath disruption (5-second apnea post-30-second exposure). Feet remained reactive despite non-focal attention (suggesting cross-region neural feedback).

Results Summary:

Highest Reactivity: Medial thighs > underarms > lower ribs. Delayed Fatigue: Abdominal region retained sensitivity longest (14% decline over 8 minutes vs. 31% in axillary zone). Equipment Note: Terrorizer gloves induced faster peak response but shorter recovery time vs. manual methods.

Recommendations for Future Trials:

Test staggered restraint angles (lateral vs. dorsal arch) to isolate ribcage mobility effects. Compare vibration tools vs. textured gloves on iliac crest region.
