Plastic bag Effectiveness

[Ender]

Perhaps a silly question, but could a plastic bag be good for suffocation? Would it be able t make me unconscious? I'm not talking about a plastic grocery bag, I have two bags that were from my hospital stay, they are big and they have a drawstring. I also have a couple from Christmas, those were used to hold clothes. Would suffocation by plastic bag work? Also, could it be used along with partial hanging?

Likely not.
Your body will react to the toxins and hardships it undergoes so your will instinctively fight out of it.
You have to replace the air and expelled gasses with something your body won't recognize as poison

Forgive me, but could you give me some sort of example of what you mean by that?

I don't want to risk banning by going into spesifics. You need to do the groundwork and check out the forum and what's already here. I'm not active enough to be comfortable on what info is ok to give and what's not.

Ah, understandable. I did not know it was a bannable type of ordeal. Because I have no clue about what you mean. Thanks anyways.

Google is your best friend.

Google is your best friend.

I suppose. I just thought there would more to it.

That is how people find out about things...google. Look under hypercapnia, for your particular question.

Thanks. I would use Google, but when it comes to ctb and methods, I just don't think it's reliable. But thanks, I will check your suggestion out.

...and look up scientific reports. They often have the best data.

I have done this, and it's horrible. The moment you run out of air, your body panics and you'll struggle and do anything you can to be able to breathe. Chances are that in panic mode, you'll be able to free yourself no matter what, adrenaline shouldn't be underestimated. Either way, you'll be very scared and in a lot of pain.

Try to imagine drowning, being strangled, being unable to breathe etc. and what that would feel like. Suffocation with a plastic bag is similar and will make you panic and you'll rip that bag right off your head.
