I weigh 68kg (150lbs), my height is 170cm (5ft 7in). I live in a nice apartment and it's a brand new complex. (Maybe that's relevant because the supports and wood is new) Will my weight be supported by my door frame?

The door should be able to bear your weight since you are rather light.

I think yes. But you can test it, it will be better and more safe. I say "safe" is a little crazy.

When I was running tests, I would wrap a rope around my chest and then put my full weight on it. Alternately, I would simply hold onto a small loop I made with the rope and lean into it with my full weight. Both were helpful to gauge if something was supportive.

You can use the rope for swing as a test. You recognize it is ok.

How do you hang yourself from a door frame?

I wanted to do the door knob thing. Someone on another thread said it wouldn't work because I'm 5'5 and 250 lbs. what do you guys think? They said I'd be better off with full suspension.
