A heads up would have been appreciated, Mari.
So here’s my poorly drawn headcanon on how Marinette freed Chat without him seeing her– based on a small scene where Antibug tilts the pole and he starts to slide off. Their miraculous costumes enhance their bodies and makes them (mostly) invulnerable, so he should be able to land from that height (I mean look at when Climatika threw him across Paris. He’ll be fine).
If he had fallen while still fully tied up… yikes.
