Best rope to hang yourself with?

[AsexualBarbieBoy]

What's the best kind of rope to use for hanging? Something that won't hurt too much but is effective. Sorry if this is obvious, but I'm switching to hanging after failing other methods before.

hello! I am also interested in this question. i was very happy about the exit bag with nitrogen option but it turns out its very hard to get any of the applicable gases in my country. so i think its gunna have to be hanging, but im afraid of the pain.

The best rope is the one that will support your weight. Discomfort can be reduced with padding. In general, judging by various hanging videos, hanging is more uncomfortable than painful. People lose consciousness within 15 seconds on average.

People don't recommend nylon but does polypropylene rope support enough weight

Partial hanging attempts fail usually due to SI. With full suspension the only way one can fail is the rope on anchor point breaking or being "saved".

I got a polypropylene sailing rope with tensile strength of ~1200 kg. It seems like a strong material, better than jute anyway.
Someone on 8ch back in the day was recommending climbing ropes ~3000kg tensile strength but that seems like an overkill, lol.

I have this: a nautical rope with 10 mm of thickness and 500 kg of resistance, I hope it will be enough for a complete suspension.

I suggest thick and strong rope. Good idea is neck padding to alleviate pain.
