Step1

Step2
Step 1: Don't get kidnapped. But I suppose that's already happened. Too bad.
Step3
Step 2: Identify your situation and keep a cool head. When you panic it makes it very difficult to think. This could be very very bad. Also you could hyperventilate and pass out. Not good.
Step4
Step 3: Identify your location. This is probably the most important step. If your not in a car, do not bother to think about this article other than the fact you should stay cool and not panic.
Step5
Step 4: If you are in a car, here's what you do. More than likely you will be blindfolded and put in the back somewhere on the floor. If by chance you are in the trunk, the first thin you need to do is get your hands so that you can use them. This may difficult if you are tied up.
Step6
Step 5: If you are tied up attempt to wiggle your wrists. If you are gagged here's what you do: Take your tied up hands and put them down by your feet. Make sure your feet are curled up so you can get your hands under them. Now you should have your hands in the front. Use your fingers to take out the gag. Whatever you do, don't start screaming. This will alert the kidnapper(s). Once the gag is out, you can start the next step.
Step7
Step 6: If you cannot figure out how to get the knots undone with your teeth or if they are hand cuffs, the next thing you do is get your blindfold off. This allows you to see around. Just use your fingers. Once this is off, bring your hands up to your face and spit on the area where the rope is. Make sure that you don't spit on the rope. Once this is done, your wrists should be slippery. Try to wiggle out know. If you can't then try to figure it out. But that should usually work. If not use your teeth and try to untie the knots with them.
Step8
Step 7: Once this is done that's good. If there are handcuffs on your wrists, look around for a flexible piece of metal. Bend it into a small L shaped piece and put it in the lock mechanism and turn it. This should pop the lock. Do this for both hands.
Step9
Step 8: Now you are ready to try to escape. In the trunk, look around for and emergency release hatch. If there isn't one, take something thin and hard and put it under the end of the trunk. This might pop the trunk open. Or, if you know that the car is stopped you could go and see if there is a entrance to the car through the back of the trunk. Sometimes it folds down to go into the car. Then go out and avoid the kidnapper and run. RUN FOREVER UNTILL YOU ESCAPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
