look up Chris Cornell's death. he strapped an exercise band around a bathroom door. handle of the band on the door knob and up over the top of the door with it shut, might be safer sturdy-wise if you're really thin like he was, but it seems like it would hold. I'm sure you could use anything long/sturdy enough as well , doesn't have to be an exercise band... I won't lie though I went and bought one when the info came out lol .-.
