Method the types of knots for hanging

[Musketeer]

I have seen this question asked multiple times in multiple threads so i will just answer it here.
what type of knot to use for hanging.

drop hangings

For this method you will want to use a noose knot, this is because the noose is actually used to break the neck. Make sure you have a decent drop as well, baseed on your body weight in KG. you want to make sure you have ebough drop with enough force to break your neck. This is what they use in the United States during prisoner executions. I will be posting a chart below.

Weight of prisoner (lbs)	Drop in feet & inches
118 & under	8' 6"
120	8' 4"
125	8' 0"
130	7' 8"
135	7' 5"
140	7' 2"
145	6' 11"
150	6' 8"
155	6' 5"
160	6' 3"
165	6' 1"
170	5' 10"
175	5' 8"
180	5' 7"
185	5' 5"
190	5' 3"
195	5' 2"
200 & over	5' 0"

Suspension Hanging
For this method you will be using a slip knot. You will want to be alone for at least 20 minutes preferably 45 minutes or longer. The slip knot here is preferred because it compresses the neck easier than a noose knot. The best way of doing this would to be to hold your breath as long as possible before you jump, this will ensure your brain is deprived of some oxygen before hand, hopefully you will pass out sooner if you already start to deprive your brain of oxygen, than before.

I just wanted to make this in an easily accessible place. I have seen this far too many times of this website.

Didn't think of doing it that way, that sounds like good advice, thanks.
Any opinion regarding knot placement ?

Does anyone know whether it definitely has to be a slip knot? I made my second noose when my internet got cut off and didn't memorise how to make a slip knot, it still looks pretty tight, better than my first noose which was a slip knot and either way I use a lot of material to make the knot since I didn't have access to rope.

What about partial suspention?

I was planning to just strangle myself slowly to death. I was hoping for 1 minute relief like some dead rat I saw.

Which materials?

It can work with a hangman's noose, however a slipknot is the better option for suspension

I know a slipknot worked for my partial. Passed out in like five secs but the rope popped and I'm still alive! But I did pass out

Slipknot is the standard for partial hanging, with the knot at the back of the neck. However, I am thinking trying to use a climbing rope with a D ring because I an not good at knots.

I decided on a day, my birthday I'm turning 27 so seems fitting. My method is hanging and I've done a ton of research I'd like to share before it's to late.
The first time I tried to hang myself it hurt. I felt like I needed to cough from my windpipe being crushed and like my head was going to explode. If you experience this you are doing it wrong.
There are a few ways to perish by hanging.
1) lack of bloodflow to brain
2) lack of oxygen to the brain from lack of air
3) too much bloodflow to the brain
4) breaking your neck
The first opinion is your best.
Pressing on your windpipe tell you cannot breath not only hurts like hell but triggers the co2 panic response. Too much bloodflow to the brain make your head feel like exploding. This happens when you dont have enough pressure on rope. You have artery going into your brain and the jugulars draining blood from the brain. The jugular are easy to compress so when you dont have enough pressure to close the arteries the pressure in your head builds and builds and even when you die your head is bloated and purple not the way to go. Breaking your neck is very very very difficult. You must calculate your weight and height of drop the rope size and even then you can mess up and choke to death.
So again number 1 is the best option cut off all inward and outward flow of blood without crushing the trachea. How do we accomplish this?
First let's talk ligiture size and texture.
The width of the ligature matters. Yes you can accomplish this with a belt or a scarf but I'm going for comfort. Contrary to popular belief wider isnt more comfortable. Yes it may be more cofortable on the skin initially but the inability to close the arteries quickly makes it uncomfortable with the extreme head bloating. I reccomend bdsm rope its cotton or a blend and usually no bigger than a finger in width. But anything finger size or smaller will do even paracord or small wires and cords.
Now let's talk placement the most important part. Where to stick the rope on the neck.
The most common approach is to stick the ligature at the top of the neck near the jaw line and above the Adam's apple. I have found this is the most UNCOMFORTABLE place. The pressure of the ligature on the neck constricts the trachea and makes you need to cough or feel like choking. DO NOT PLACE THE ROPE AT THE TOP OF YOUR NECK.
The very base of the neck with the rope resting on the collar bones before tightening is an ok but still not recommended spot. The muscles at the base of the neck are big enough to protect your trachea but are too big to allow you to easily compress the arteries going to the brain.
The best placement of the rope is half ways between your Adam's apple and the base of your neck. Or about one to two fingers widths down from the middle of the Adam's apple. So if we visually sectioned the neck into thirds it would be the first line up from the bottom. This is the most comfortable spot it's easy to compress everything and I pass out in about 10 seconds with no airway restriction or discomfort.
Lastly lest talk knots and placement relative to face.
There is absolutely no need to learn the hangman's knot or any hard complex knots. I have found that the more complex the knot the more friction it makes and the harder it is to compress the neck. So the two best options I have found are:
1. Slip knot- slides very easily can quickly be undone and doesnt pinch
2. D rings or any kind of metal ring tied to the end of the rope makes for a frictionless slide with no pinching.

As for placement:
if the knot itself is in the front of the neck it reduces the force applied to the arteries and veins because they are close to the front of your neck not the sides.
If the knot is placed on the side of the neck it reduces the force applied to the veins and arteries on that side
If the knot is placed at the back of the neck it achieves optimal pressure on the front of the neck. The back of the neck is the best option.

Final notes:
1.Make sure what you attach your rope to is strong and I mean really strong.
2. Dont add padding under the rope it reduces pressure
3. You can test placement by wrapping the rope around your neck without tying a knot. Just crisscross it in the back grab each side of the rope and extend your arms outwards to the side tigentining it around your neck. If you pass out it will come loose and you'll be safe and sound. It's a great way to get over the SI attached to the sinking/fading away feeling by practicing loving the high.

You guys have been so amazing and have helped me so much I hope this helps you.

If you look at the beginning of this thread, Postion 2 and 3 are the best. If you fingers are touching, may want to be a little higher, or just have them resting on ground with no upward pressure.
The consensus on the threads is the best way is to go hard and fast, moving your head forward, and try to sit down into the air beneath you. You want to compress the carotid artery's as fast and hard as possible so you lose consciousness fast

What about a bjj belt super durable but the slick it dosent tighten that well
