Can you guess this for 10 points?

Mr moneybags the bank manager was not having a good day because he had just been robbed.A well dressed man had come in and asked to have a private talk with him and then gone on to leave him in quite a mess.The man had taken out a bottle full of nitroglycerine with 2 wires coming from it,an old fashioned clock face with no glass,2 hands and scratches all over its face, and a microphone.The clock said 11 and the man told him that the bomb would be active until the hands reached 12 at which time it would deactivate and the manager could escape.The man also made the bank manager hold the wires in between the thumb and finger of his right hand and told him that if he let go of the wire or pulled it the bomb would go off instantly,the microphone would blow it up if he made a noise.So saying the robber activated the bomb and told the manager that he would be gone with the money before the bomb became safe.He got halfway across the bank when the alarm was raised,how had the manager escaped?

jump out a window
all of ye!
he escaped by the clock turned to 12
He turned the hands of the clock to 12:00. Thanks for the ten.
either he carried everything with him and raised the alarm or, since there was no glass on the clock face, he simply moved the hands with his left hand till the clock said 12:00.
He used his other hand to turn the bomb to 12

Or he hooked up the two wires together.
when the clock turned 12 he escaped
woah...LONG riddle dude
he put it on 12:00 with his left hand
um, he took the bomb w/ him?? or he moved it 2 12.
he instantly found out it was a fake bomb!
he just did
He knew it was a dud after the man gave him the wires because if it truly were to explode when you let go of the wires, how did the wires get in the nitroglycerine in the 1st place?
