COLUMBUS, Ohio - OhioPen -- Noose Hanging Survivor Escape Artist Michael Griffin Says "The Physics Don't Add Up" in Epstein Case

Michael Griffin has felt a noose tighten under full body weight and survived it.

Now the two-time World Magic Award winner says the publicly discussed details surrounding Jeffrey Epstein's 2019 death do not align with what a true vertical hanging does to the human body.

"I've seen the pictures, I know exactly how rope behaves under gravity," Griffin says. "I've experienced full neck compression. From the pictures released and what has been described publicly, the mechanics don't add up."

Griffin survived a historically accurate noose hanging (https://youtu.be/6fkZI7s6bew) with his hands secured behind his back, modeling 19th-century execution methods. The ligature marks remained visible for days.

He is not offering a medical ruling or alleging misconduct. His comments focus strictly on biomechanics.

"In a genuine vertical suspension, tension pulls toward the anchor point. Compression patterns follow physics. They are not random," he said. "There's theory. And then there's experience. I've experienced it twice."

Griffin is available for national interviews to discuss rope mechanics, ligature direction, and what happens to the human neck under full noose load.
