So I am looking to ctb via partial hanging, and I have done so much research but I can't seem to find the perfect rope for it. It's mainly because I'm an obese person. I weight around 227lb/103kg.
I have thought about using a paracord 550 (it holds 550lb) and don't think it will be right for me since 550lb is not much considering i will be tying 2 knots. 1 Knot usually decrease the weight a rope can handle by around 50%.
I have considered Manila rope/Hemp rope too but just confused.
Help is appreciated with what type of rope I should use for hanging myself.
---------------------------------
Once I find my rope I am looking for locations to tie that to which is something strong. Can't find a single location in my house. Looking at my obese self, I don't know if a doorknob can hold my weight. Thinking about attaching it to a door knob and throwing it over the top of a door and hanging from the other side.
Your inputs, comments, advice, help are all appreciated :)
