So I've recently changed my plan. I initially intended to ctb by jumping, but having stood at the edge now, I'm not sure I can push myself to do it. Turns out getting over my fear of heights isn't quite as easy as I had hoped. I'm now looking more towards hanging - in this case, partial suspension. Seems more comfortable than full suspension, plus I honestly don't know where I would perform a full suspension, as I cannot do it at home.
My plan currently:
I plan on getting a hotel room for the night, a hotel in which I know the rooms have a clothing rail that is strong enough to hold most of my weight. I'll leave a note for the hotel staff telling them what has happened, and to call the police - I don't want to force trauma onto the hotel worker who tries to enter my room. I'll also leave a note somewhere nearby, addressed to my family. The police (I'm assuming) will hand that over to my family after the fact.
As far as the actual hanging, I was planning on using a neck tie, or multiple to extend the length a little bit. The part around my neck will just be one necktie, the others are just to increase the reach to the clothing rail.
I have a few questions before I go any further though:
1. How difficult is this method?
2. Would a neck tie be sufficient, especially considering I'll have to use other neck ties to extend the reach towards the rail. If not, what kind of rope would be a better alternative?
3. What are the success rates of this method roughly?
One somewhat less important question too: If I were to consider full suspension, do you have any ideas of anchor points I could use for it? Like I said, I can't do it in my own home.
