    IMO Boba’s escape precludes the sarlacc from being able to contain a sith lord.

    All canon/noncanon stories essentially have Boba blowing his way out with thermal detonators and/or subsequently being spat out.

    I feel like the only reason that method of escape wouldn’t be common knowledge is because of how rare sarlaccs are to begin with.

        I guess the real question is how well known is this escape method? Obviously not everyone eaten by a sarlacc was a disarmed prisoner. So like is Boba just the first one to try?

        Apparently his jet pack explodes as well as the grenades. So maybe that extra boom is required??

            Bruh 100%. I’m guessing his armour?

            So like there’s effectively 3 versions of him escaping.

            1. He’s just spat out for no explained reason (Star Wars magazine 1983)

            2. He uses telepathy with the other trapped souls, his jet pack explodes plus he uses grenades to escape. (Legends)

            3. BOBF he steals a convenient stormtroopers O2 and cuts/burns his way out, no grenades (I didn’t watch the show tbh). He loses his helmet through this process somehow tho.
