Factual error: We see Hoffman has to use pliers and force to remove Strahm's hand from the grill. However, since the hand is freshly severed, rigor mortis would not have set in, and he should have been able to remove it with ease. (01:09:30)

Saw VI (2009)
Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Kevin Greutert
Starring: Tobin Bell, Betsy Russell, Costas Mandylor, Mark Rolston
Pamela (the reporter) is William's sister. The mother and son in the other cage is Hank's family. Hank is the man who had his health insurance coverage denied at the beginning of the movie. Hank's wife doesn't want to kill William but Hank's son pulls the switch and William is injected with acid. The sheet of paper that Pamela had (and showed to Jill at her apartment) is the mysterious letter that Amanda received in the 3rd movie. The letter was written by Hoffman. He wrote to Amanda that he knows that Amanda told Cecil to go to Jill's clinic for drugs. Cecil caused Jill to lose her and John's/Jigsaw unborn child (this happened in a flashback in the 4th film). The letter also says that Amanda had to kill Lynn (the doctor that did surgery on Jigsaw in the 3rd film) or he would tell Jigsaw that she was involved in Cecil's robbery and loss of the child. The 6th envelope in the box given to Jill by Jigsaw (the box was given in the previous movie) has info and a photo of Hoffman. Hoffman, like Amanda, also has to go through a test. Jill places a reverse bear trap on Hoffman and leaves. Hoffman acts quickly and places the front part of the trap between the bars of a window (so that the trap can't fully open) and takes off the trap. The last scene is Hoffman with part of his faced ripped open and screaming in agony...
Racer X
Jigsaw: Hello, William. Before you are six of your most valuable associates. The ones who find errors in policies. Their findings result in over two-thirds of all applications denied or prematurely terminated. Healthcare decisions should be made by doctors and their patients, not the insurance company. Six ride the carousel, but only two can get off. The decision of which two survive falls upon you. To offer the two reprise, you'll offer a sacrifice of your own. Two can live, four will die.
Trivia: Saw 2, Saw 3 and this movie are the only two movies that have an undetermined time between the end of the previous movie and it's beginning. Saw 3, 4 and 5 all occurred over the space of around a week.
Question: In the beginning scene where the two participants had to cut flesh in order to survive, what was to stop them simply putting other stuff on the scales instead of flesh, such as the heavy tools and knives and escaping that way?

Answer: The tools were chained to the tables, and there wasn't anything else they could've thrown down onto the scales.
