I work on gloves like this, and that's really not what we see in the real world.

The active force applied to the fingers is actually pretty small. The geometry of a flexed hand gives huge mechanical advantage. The key is a large holding force. It's easy to prevent you from closing your hands further without needing to actually overpower you.

You don't need to pull hard, you just have to be able to stop hard. No real risk there.
