This guy broke the handcuffs on the wat to the station.
But, for a reduced sentence, agreed to show the officer how he did it.
A long video but by the end, he DID break the cuffs.

This is one of the reasons why the vast majority of police forces worldwide use hinged cuffs or rigid cuffs instead of chained cuffs nowadays. (Other reasons are that the arrestee is less likely to injure themselves and that they are easier to use for "pain compliance" methods to subdue a resisting person which paradoxically ALSO leads to fewer injuries on average to both police officers and those getting arrested/cuffed)
