Help Hanging if you are overweight/obsese

[gameoverman]

I was planning to do full suspension hanging ,bought ropes,scouted trees in my area but I began to wonder if it's a viable method for someone who is overweight/obese. I'm a guy about 178cm tall and I weigh about 110kg.

What do you think,will hanging work for me provided that the rope is strong enough?

not just the rope but the tree matter; people have woken up after a branch snapped on them.
you don't want brain damage - please be careful

Yeah I know that's why I scouted for safe anchor points and despite the fact that I live near forests there are almost no suitable branches it's ridiculous lol.

What I'm worried about is that if I'm overweight/obese and have a fat neck will the rope be able to penetrate to arteries and make me pass out.

Maybe if your neck is thick, you can do some tests first..

Touch with your fingers on both sides of your neck, can you feel a strong pulse well?

'How to locate the carotid arteries?'

You can tie the ligature and place it on your neck (like a necklace) in its correct position: under your jaw and with the knot behind your neck in the center. And pull the free end with your hands to apply pressure. You can use the Arbor Knot for this, as it slides and tightens itself. When you apply pressure, you should feel your vision begin to darken and a general feeling of lightness.

I can feel pulse in some places but it's not very strong. Also I have 12mm and 14mm polypropylene ropes but don't know which one would be better?

I'm quite conflicted, I don't know if hanging will work for me but I'm desperate as I don't have any other methods available besides SN which I don't really trust.

Honestly, I don't see any problem with it not working. In full suspension, all your weight will exert pressure and will block the carotid arteries. The rope will penetrate your neck thanks to gravity, your entire body weight suspended and the ligature knot tightening itself (arbor knot or also known as noose knot with stopper knot)
You can also feel your pulse, so your arteries are not difficult to access.

Brief summary of some points in the Hanging method.

It's always important to test your anchor point and rope to ensure they're strong and can support your weight.

If your anchor point will be trees, you can read this thread to choose the right one:

Thread 'Trees to use for hanging - from a tree expert'

Both ropes are fine. You can test them both, as I mentioned in the previous post, and see which one is better for you.

Don't make any hasty attempts.

Full hanging will work perfectly if you are overweiht, you should be more concerned if you are a light weight MMA fighter with a muscular neck.

It's because I recall seeing your post in some other thread saying that hanging is not a method for overweight/obese people so I started having doubts.

It depends on how "obese" you are; there are many people who have almost no neck, due to the large amount of adipose tissue they have.
Another case would be people with very muscular and thick necks.

That's why I recommended that you do test with the ligature on your neck.

If you can feel your pulse, it means there isn't too much tissue making access impossible.

- Min 1:23 - He is suspended in the air with the ligature tightening around his neck.
- Min 1:34 - He begins with spasms and convulsions
- Min 2:30 - Start agonal breathing
- Min 3:31 - Any type of movement stops

Explanation of all phases of the Hanging death mechanism: 2 research pdfs

When the supply of oxygenated blood flow to the brain stops due to complete blockage of the carotid arteries, in 15 seconds or less you will lose consciousness, and you will no longer feel anything that will happen next.

Very explanatory video on how consciousness is rapidly lost due to the blockage of oxygenated blood supply to the brain.

Then begins the phases of: spasms and convulsions, decerebrate/decorticate rigidity, abdominal movements, agonal breathing (not all people experience all the stages, some quickly become completely immobile)

Death occurs in less than half an hour.
