Abstract:
This study tests whether a single three-minute bout of uncompromising foot-tickling — delivered while the subject is rendered c*mpletely immobile — can attenuate a severe, lifelong phobia of tickling. Subject J.M. (F, 24, natural blonde) presented acute anticipatory panic after witnessing prior inmates endure merciless toe-targeted stimulation inside the Immobilizer bag. We employed a No-Safeword scenario to extinguish avoidance behaviors. Results: subject’s subjective time dilation averaged 10 : 1 (3 min objective = 30 min perceived). Observers are invited to recommend escalation parameters for future sessions.

Methodology

Subject Recruitment

Extremely reluctant volunteer secured via financial incentive + waiver of liability. Baseline heart-rate 140 bpm at mere sight of toe-restraints.

Restraint Architecture

Mummification Layer: 0.8 mm neoprene Immobilizer bag, laced to tibiae; torso & arms sealed.. Stratum of Leather: 7 belts, 2 in. wide, ratchet-cinched—hips, upper thighs, knees, lower knees, ankles, instep, metatarsals. Adhesive Stabilization: 3-inch vinyl tape, 6 circumferential winds around bag-to-table interface, preventing torso flex greater than 2 mm. Cephalic Fixation: Leather strap over forehead, bolted to steel rails affixed under the Tickle Table,; cervical movement eliminated. Silencing Apparatus: Rubberized tape, 5 wraps around mandible + occiput; decibel reduction 38 dB. Ankle Clamps: Machined stainless, serrated pads lined with 1 mm silicone for slip-proof purchase. Digital Constriction: 550 paracord figure-eight wrap binding the toes; tension 42 N (tested 550 lb).

Tickle Stimulus

Duration: 180 s (subject-selected minimum). Tools: Due to the short session, the Shocker was applied based on prior exposure during her initial Tickle Table experience. Target Zones: entire surface of her bare soles. Cadence: random-variable 4–8 Hz to prevent neural adaptation.

Objective Metrics

Heart-rate telemetry: 140 → 190 bpm in 45 s, sustained. Plantar sweat secretion: + 600 % conductance vs. baseline. Toe-flex excursion: Varied, due to equipment failure on prior specimen Fae D’Cay. Improvisation became necessary. Vocal amplitude: muffled 68 dB peaks (gag-reduced from estimated 104 dB).

Results

Subject reported dissociative time elongation; post-test questionnaire: “Those three minutes felt like thirty. My brain melted into pure foot-panic.” Phobia rating (Likert 0–10) remained at 10; however, behavioral avoidance dropped one point (she approached the lab door unassisted). Observer pool (N = 12) unanimously recommended protocol repetition with incremental duration and/or tool intensity.

Discussion

Despite negligible immediate phobia reduction, immobilization-driven exposure succeeded in applied stimulus contact. The absence of safewords guaranteed zero escape - mediated reinforcement. Future aims could compare 3 min vs. 6 min vs. indefinite (tool-change) conditions.

C*ll for Peer Input

Colleagues are invited to append commentary:

Should duration be doubled while maintaining ultra - strict restraint? Would alternative zone tickling distraction amplify or attenuate foot-focused panic? Could overnight toe-tie maintenance deepen extinction learning?
