Partial hanging - how to succeed?

[LenkaX]

I have prepared a slip knot. When I'll hang myself, should the knot be positioned at the right side or at the left side of the neck or at back?
Like here on this picture. The knot is either on the backs side or on left or right side. Which is the best?

In the back.

It depends on personal style and what you loom like when found.
On the right and tightening to the back will leave your head tilted to one side. That lets you see things in those final seconds.
In the back is just head down.
Either way is dead.
(FYI, full has better success)

Isn't the knot supposed to go at the front where it constricts the carotid artery?
