Can convulsions be heard through walls while others are asleep?

[HeckingHecked]

Can I CTB in a room on the first floor? My brother is a heavy sleeper, no one in the basement will hear me, and my parents are on the second floor. Is this doable? The room is relatively soundproof.

Convulsions can make a fair bit of noise. If you're thinking about convulsions as a result of asphyxiation then there are often audible noises from choking and spluttering too.

Yes most likely, soundproofing is fine to a degree but others in the house will most likely be in silence so any other sounds will be amplified

Again as in the other thread please think this through

But they'll also be asleep.

Maybe they will but you don't know that for sure unless you go and check on them. They might be aware of how you are thinking and it's making them anxious and sleeping lightly. So many variables to think about unfortunately

Have a read of the suggested threads underneath, there's lots of comments about convulsions in there

Depends how deep of a sleeper these people are.

I've slept through earthquakes. Slept through a fire alarm going off for 30+ minutes. Someone could CTB in bed next to me and I wouldn't wake up.

Staying over at a friend's with epilepsy, sometimes the banging against the walls / floors can be heard while you're 2 floors above with the tv on. It can be quite dramatic even if they're somewhere padded like their bed. I guess it depends on the design of your home though.

Interesting.

My parents are not too heavy sleepers, but my siblings are.

Convulsions from purely constriction of the arteries.
