Resource Guide on how to create an anchor point for full suspension hanging using only a dumbbell

[Evelyn Lane]

Do you want to hang yourself using full suspension in the comfort of your home or in a hotel, but have no anchor points? Well, here's the solution for you. It's very simple yet effective, requiring only a dumbbell.

For this setup you'll be using a rope, and slip one end over a door, tying it to a small 2kg dumbbell using a snuggle hitch (this would keep the rope in place).
Then on the other side of the door you'll make a noose right at the top of the door.
The idea is that you'll close the door, use a chair to get your head through the noose and drop off.

You could also use door stoppers to make the setup even more reliable. However, if you use the external part of the door, you won't need any door stoppers.

This method is better than tying a rope to a doorknob, since doorknobs can break. This method is suitable for anyone, no matter the weight.

Thank you for all your research work in all things hang related c:

Thank you very much for all your ideas (and also for the illustrations).

Just to add a little idea: a ratchet strap like on the photo could also be used to pass through the locked closed door and be blocked by the metal side (playing the role of the dumbbell). If the rope is too thick.

The neck part could be made thinner by bending the strap. Glue could be used to fix it in this position.

As you might remember as you answered in my thread I will do the same method but with door anchor for exercise. https://sanctioned-suicide.net/threads/please-review-full-suspension-setup.160016/#post-2459731



I think using an exercise door anchor might be better than building an anchor with weights yourself, I mean these things are pre-made to handle a lot of weight and in my weight tests it did do a good job, no guarantees of course. that being said the door I am using is taller than your average door, the loop of the anchor is too long for using it wit.,h a rope on normal sized doors, still worry about dangling against the door though, idk swinging freely would be better. Generally speaking it doesn't feel optimal for me, but it will do the job I hope.

I think the metal side could come off, am I wrong in thinking that? Also, would you use the ratchet strap on your neck or how would you do this? Because ideally you'd use a rope for this.

The first video seems to be fake.

Really? What makes you think that?

 

[Gustav Hartmann]

He moves too long, no deep rythmic aspiration, the head is not tilted a bit. It is easy to conceil something like a harness between door and back.

Wouldn't this method put even more pressure on the hyoid bone and less on the carotid arteries because of the more diagonal pulling force it would result in, since the back of head is against the door and the thickness of the door? Anyways, one really doesn't need a dumbbell or any other tool for this, you could just tie a big lump at the other side of the rope.

The thing that would worry me doing this method full suspension is that the door wouldn't be able to handle it, so i believe it's a better option for partial hanging, like most celebrities have done it in recent years (Bennington, Cornelius, Williams, Bourdain etc).

I'll be honest, I didn't really get this part. To me it seems like the carotid arteries are getting compressed as they always do.

I can't imagine that happening. What do you think would happen to the door, exactly?

 

[Bapremp]

Ignore the first part, wasn't thinking properly When it comes to the door i was thinking that it might come lose because the hinges wouldn't be able to hold the weight.

You think? Hm... But anyway, that shouldn't happen if someone uses the external part of a door, right?
