Take your metal chain and hold it in both hands. Drop one end and let it drape on one of your feet. Do this a few times and note how it moves and change your angle and tension to direct the chain where you want it to go (for example not between your legs
)

Do this with eyes closed and while walking and change the angles and the direction of the hand that is still holding the chain. For another option let loose of both ends or parts at different times and see how you keep moving and avoid getting harmed.
Life is as long as your breath. Keep breathing.
