Help Can I hang myself with a belt?

[avissopathetic]

I'm sure the answer is no but I am very curious to if I could, how could I? I do not have access to anything besides stuff on hand but maybe theres a way to make it work afterall?

I mean people have done it before so I guess it's possible. But a rope is probably ideal.

Theoretically yes, but I figure that it could work in partial hanging rather than full hanging. The problem is that a belt lacks the flexibility to make the other tip to the anchor point. Or it could be work to put the belt in a doorknob and then make enough pressure to the neck... However, I think partial hanging is tricky and in any circumstances you must be really sure to try it, because there will be a chance to die by partial hanging, so think carefully.

Robin Williams and Chester Bennington both succeeded with belts, but they may be outliers and we don't know how many times they tried before succeeding. So, it's possible, but it's also possible that the belt just snaps and, depending on when that happens you risk permanent damage.
