2. This is what happens when you stick your hand to a surface
Sticking to a surface is a complex process that depends on many factors, including:
- the type of glue
- the surface
- the environmental conditions.
In extreme cases, like the one in Mainz, there can be serious complications that require medical and professional intervention.
3. How to safely release a stuck hand from a surface
In the case of a stuck hand, it is important to remain calm and seek professional help.
Important: Do not try to force the hand loose as this may result in injury.
Instead, you should try to gently loosen the glue by soaking it with a suitable solvent. In some cases, gently moving your hand to loosen the adhesive may also help.

In extreme cases where a stuck hand cannot be released in a conventional manner, it may be necessary to cut the surrounding concrete or asphalt.
Important: This is a highly specialized task that should only be carried out by trained professionals such as the fire brigade or the Federal Agency for Technical Relief (THW).
