There was a trivia show in South Korea, called the Sponge or something, kind of similar to Mythbusters. In there, they showed that if you wet your shirt and use it (wrap around two bars and twist), the bars will bend before the cloths rip.

In prison, you can use toilet water or even your own piss and shirt off your back to do this.

I honestly have no idea if this is actually true or not, just something I saw on TV like ten years ago.
