i can't make partial work, so i started looking at full suspension. i wonder, is there a way to practice it before eventually kicking the stool?
I would not risk it... too many variables imo. A) if you pass out before putting on the noose then you would almost certainly injure yourself B) The connection must be long enough for it reach the nooseAnybody ever had the idea to inhale nitrous oxide while on the stool? The dissociation and loss of balance could help overcome si, resulting with just falling off the stool with the high ideally lasting until you pass out, but the loss of control could result with things like the rope slipping from its designated place on the neck or something so I'm sceptical about this.
Maybe I should have explained better what I had in mind. I was thinking about filling a balloon up with laughing gas, securing the entrance of balloon the with a clip for packages, going on stool, putting rope around neck, getting Ballon, removing clip, inhaling the gas and hopefully collapse off stool, but you are right in essence, there still are many variables. I was asking for judgement, that's why I am here :)I would not risk it... too many variables imo. A) if you pass out before putting on the noose then you would almost certainly injure yourself B) The connection must be long enough for it reach the noose
C) What if you do pass out with the noose on you but don't actually fall... and many more aswell. Go ahead if you want to try this out, I ain't here to judge this idea but I don't think it's worth it for overcoming SI
Thank you for this tipYou can't practice full suspension. However, you can test the rope/anchor point by sticking a broom in the noose and hanging on the broom for about 10 seconds. If it holds, your setup is fine.
A climbing rope would work but you have to know whether you have a static, semi-static, or dynamic rope, and take that into account. With partial suspension it probably makes no difference at all. With full suspension, it might make a difference but at the end of the day all 3 can be effective. A static rope would be the cheapest. It's designed to stretch no more than 5% of its total length. A semi-static rope stretches 5-10% of its total length. In a situation where you're just hanging off the rope, a dynamic rope would stretch about 10% of its total length. However, it's designed to stretch up to 30-40% of its total length in a big fall, so if you plan to do full suspension with a long drop then you'll need to do the math. Another thing to keep in mind is that climbing ropes can range from 30m to 80m long, and you won't need that much, so you'll have to cut the rope. They're durable so it'll be difficult to cut them, but definitely still possible.What is the best knot? Slipknot?
Also can you cut the rope and does a climbing rope work?
Just to clarify a point of confusion I've seen on other hanging threads. Both of these particular knots are actually the same thing, although the method of tieing is different. The 'slip knot' here has been labelled incorrectly, and is actually also the 'noose knot'.
A slip knot is tightened at the tail end, which is of little value here. A noose knot is tightened at the working end, meaning it'll cinch tight under load, and can't be undone from the tail end, making it the perfect choice for complete or incomplete hanging.
Despite the drawing being labelled inaccurately, I still recommend using it over the video as your template, as it provides a double wrap and is easier to follow in any case.
I hope this helps!

That's what I've been thinking, but my order of benzos from the DN didn't arrived (at least not yet, but it's been a while, so I'm not optimistic), so I'm considering taking amitriptyline after getting everything setup and getting into position then hoping I pass out and fall into the hang. Amitriptyline always makes me sleepy, so I'm hoping an amitriptyline OD will knock me out and I'll fall. I don't know if this is feasible though. Would I be likely to pass out peacefully from amitriptyline alone or would there be unpleasant side effects beforehand?just curious.. can you take benzos before hanging and fall into the hang?
