English term

straitjacket

English to Serbian Other Other
I was once offered a straitjacket that belonged to a famous magician.

"A straitjacket is a garment shaped like a jacket with overlong sleeves and is typically used to restrain a person who may otherwise cause harm to him/herself or others. Once the arms are inserted into the straitjacket's sleeves, they are then crossed across the chest. The end of the sleeves are then tied to the back of the wearer, ensuring that the arms are kept close to the chest with as little movement as possible."

straitjacket Harry Houdini – probably one of the most famous magicians of them all, well known for escaping chains, ropes, handcuffs and straitjackets.

Pogledajte ovu ref. Tu se govori o mađioničarima, koji su koristili straitjacket. Ali prevod bi ipak bio ovaj predložen

То је лудачка кошуља која се користи за спутавање менталних болесника и сличних особа, из које кажу да је немогуће да се ослободите сами, а мађионичари је користе да би доказали супротно. Худини је био прави мајстор у томе.
Note from asker:
Čini mi se da se radi o nekom prsluku koji pomaže mađioničarima u izvođenju njihovih trikova
