Discussion Any ideas on how to prevent legs from saving you while unconsious? [Partial Hanging]

[clown]

So people are saying that your legs can make you stand up while you're unconsious in partial hanging. Came accross multiple people on here who claimed they have experienced it. I know that your arms and legs will move around when you are unconsious in hanging but it still seems a bit weird to me that your legs can make you stand up and 'save' you. But if this actually is true i would like to avoid it happening since you can damage your body in many ways if you survive a hanging attempt. Soo I thought maybe you can tie your legs to something or in a certian way so they wont move as much. Any ideas on how to prevent legs from thrashing around??

I would think that as soon as the slipknot tightens enough for you to pass out it would stay that way, even if you legs were to "stand up".

Honestly you may have to seriously tie them together with rope. It is knee jerk involuntary most of the time. You could be flat unconscious and still twitch and violently have erratic movement.
Usually this is not needed though and luck dependant.

Make the floor underneath you so slippery that your feet cannot get traction. Also known as a "prison tip."

I haven't heard of that one. When I hanged myself I was kneeling and it was only my husband getting a strange feeling (followed me upstairs agew minutes later), finding me, and cutting me down that stopped me dying.

I was at the point that I was fitting when cut 'down' and vessels in both eyes had already haemmhoraged.

Perhaps kneeling with weight on your legs or crossed legs?

Tie your legs together with a Velcro strap or use duct tape.

Thats actually a really good idea, I don't wanna create a mess on the floor in my house and there is a chance I might end up ctbing in a forrest so it might be slightly harder there. But it was acutally a good idea and im aure i can figure something out, thank you!
