When I am practising partial hanging i feel pressure on my eyes when hanging. Is this what supposed to feel like? It becomes unbearable after few seconds and i stop, how long does it takes to pass out?

That sounds like you're compressing the jugular veins (preventing blood from leaving the brain), but not the carotids, which supply blood to the brain. The carotids are deeper and require more force to compress.

For what it's worth, a lot of people have the same difficulty, so you're not the only one. I'm using a different method, primarily because of my inability to reliably compress both of my carotids.
