Hi there,
I have decided that my method will be drop hanging. I have nominated a location that has a large tree with thick branches that will for sure support my weight.
I intend to tie the rope around the branch three or four times to ensure tightness, with the very end of the rope tied into a clove hitch to prevent it from untying.
I was originally going to go with the hangman's knot for the opposite end, however after reading, it seems that the slipknot would be more effective.
For the drop hang, I could reach a branch in the tree which is about three to four times my height to ensure there is enough force from the fall to snap my neck.
I found a table online that suggests for my weight, I should drop around 183cm to ensure adequate force, with the intention of instant unconsciousness.
My only fear with the method is that during the fall, my head may fall out of the rope entirely if the slipknot is not secured tightly enough, resulting in me falling and injuring my legs.
If this were to happen, it would not be ideal because the location I have chosen is a far walk from anywhere, meaning I would be stuck depending on the severity of the injury.
Along with this, the rope I have chosen has fibres coming off of it all along it. I am not sure if this will have any affect on its effectiveness or potential for burning sensation during the hanging.
I suppose I am looking for advice as to whether my current plan has a guarantee of succeeding. I do not want to be there slowly losing oxygen neither do I want to survive and be spoon fed mash potato in a mental hospital. If there is anything I should change about my plan, please let me know.
