The Most Advanced Escape Descent Control Device Available. The Escape Artist offers what most other escape devices do not, a hands-free edge transition and a controllable descent. The Escape Artist pays out the rope smoothly and then locks when loaded, allowing both hands to be used to negotiate the exit. Squeezing the lever gives the user control of the descent rate.
