This is kinda gruesome and hypothetical question, but if you hang and nobody finds the body, could it happen that after some time it gets decapitated from the gravity and friction? And if so how much time do you think it could take? I guess if it happens there would be little to no bleeding since the blood would already be at the bottom of the body for the gravity. Just a funny question that popped into my head since it will take months to find me. Thank youu!

gross, depends on the temperate.
Probably within a few days to like 2 weeks

Thanks! This is so cool, I almost wished I could do it outside to be more part of the nature. This is really insightfulgross, depends on the temperate.

The corpse will not be decapitated; there are several photos of hanged bodies already in a very advanced state of decomposition, and the head is still in place.
Hanging, forensic photos
The only way you could decapitate yourself is with the Drop Hanging method... and that would be very difficult to achieve. If it has happened, it was due to an error during the executions, where the calculations for carrying it out went wrong.
