Erotic asphyxia question

[Gustav Hartmann]

tI'm not sure about the erotic part, but if you want to practice passing out, the only possible answers, IMO, are: 1) either hold the rope in your other hand, so as you pass out, you automatically let go of it and thus release tension or 2) do it with a partner.

If you have no partner it´s essential to hold the free and of the rope with your hand but it is also important to use a non constricting noose. I know a "with partner story" were they used a hangmans noose. When the hangman let his unconscious partner down it was impossible to loosen the noose due to the friction in the multi coils. They had no sharp knife handy (what one should always have in such a situation) so he used a lighter to burn through the rope, better a burned skin than unintentionally dead. I don´t have to explain what this means concerning a hangmans noose if you don´t want to survive.

came here to say the last bit. tons of cases of accidental death from this as drugs are also usually involved. but I see how you're relating it to partial OP.

I think David Carradine dies from this. That was the rumor at least.
