"You'll never take me alive!" *jumps into volcano*

I've seen criminals try to violently resist arrest or interrogation but that usually happens right when the guard attempts to drag them away.

I've seen it happen in one of my forts once. It was an intelligent undead I had locked up in a copper chain. I was watching it move back and forth, as if struggling against the restraints. It managed to break the chain and dash for the exit. I didn't get a video of it, unfortunately, since I wasn't expecting it. Cool to see it clipped! I wonder if it has anything to do with chain strength? I noticed that you're using ropes since this is the no-metal fort. Maybe the rope was weak enough that the prisoner instantly broke it and ran off.

It seems like the escape happened when they jumped to the platform above, you can see that the rope is attached until the moment they go out of range. I wonder if the chain just prevents walking beyond a certain range, and when they jump, it places them beyond this range and therefore disables the chain. This could lead to things like dodging or getting knocked around by cave ins freeing people, which probably isn't useful but could be cool.

I love Dwarf Fortress. These OMG WTF moments are priceless.

I had a naked female giant attack my fort during a game... needless to say the dwarves took an extra long time before killing her. To this day I don't have a technical reason why it took them so long.

The other day I got an interview report from my captain of the guard that implicated himself in a plot apparently hatched while he led the subject to his office for interrogation. Then it happened four more times with different criminals on the same day. Worst guard captain ever.
