hanging experts and professionals, please tell me will this setup work? need urgent advice pls

This setup is for partial suspension.

I have a heavy cabinet which is roughly 3.5 ft ( I am 5ft) In this picture I have drew out Back and Front side of the cabinet. In the back side (1) I am gonna be tying a rope on the back sides of the legs of the cabinet (rope placement shown in pink). This pink rope will work as an Anchor. Then I will tie green rope on anchor and throw it over the cabinet (Pic 2) and then tie the noose on the front side of the cabinet. I'll be doing partial. The cabinet and ropes are both very strong.

This method is similar to the door method people do. The only difference is that the anchor is another rope tied to cabinet legs instead of a doorknob.

Will this work?

Hey sorry - I just found this post from your other thread. I really wouldn't worry about standing up in such a low position.

I'm not seeing any reason this would specifically fail, but it just seems unnecessarily complicated. Is a door knob not an option?

I find ropes to stretch more than you'd think, so having a rope tied to another rope would mean there'd be a lot of slack before the rope would tension properly. It'd also make it hard to measure out the rope distance right.

There's also the risk the cabinet falls over, you said it's pretty heavy, so I'd leave that up to you.

Other than that, as long as you practice and can make yourself pass out pretty consistently with the green rope, I guess this should work.

Why go for partial suspension? It seems like a full suspension should be very doable if you use a chair and shorten the rope. Whichever method you go to, just do a trial where you hang from the rope using your hands instead of your neck to see how far the rope stretches to make sure it's not too long, and you should be fine.

The only difference between full and partial is full doesn't let you back out if you messed something up. Finding the sweet spot can take a few tries, and it's certainly worth the effort to make sure your final moments aren't in extreme pain.

Unless you're dropping from a height high enough to break your neck, full is very likely to be painful.

can door knobs be trusted? im scared they will break and come off. should i do partial with the knob or full?

I mean, obviously that depends on the knob, but the standard knob on the wooden door in my apartment holds me just fine, and I'm a bit over 180. If you have access the knob you're planning to use, you can practice there just to make sure it'll hold.

Also, I'd be incredibly impressed if you somehow managed to pull off full suspension on a doorknob 4 ft off the ground, but I'm still not sure I'd recommend it.
