Why are there so many hanging failures?

[SweetSpot086]

Every now and then, there comes a post about a failed attempt with hanging..I haven't gone all the way with hanging..I know, it works for me because I have had convulsions with a belt around my neck and holding the other end in my hand...I am only worried because I think it wont work, when I finally set a date and go through with my plan

1. strength of rope not sufficient
2. strength of ligature not sufficient
3. tying a very bad knot that opens somehow or that you can escape out of?
4. being found

these are the only reasons for failure I can conjure up in my mind for full-suspension

What about partial? Failures are mainly partial

i survived partial. i passed out several times but would wake up again as my body went into survival mode and would trash around until my blood flow was returned to my head. survival instinct will get you

5. Putting your feet down or pulling up bcuz of SI. (Partial)

I seriously don't see the point in partial hanging. If you have a strong enough rope, strong enough tie off point, and have even a sliver of knowledge of knots... full send, kick off a chair or bucket, you're gonna go.

Because death is a bitch. It's hard. Except a gunshot. But I live in a simulation where that method is supposedly illegal.

Yes, but as geo stone, writes in his book..full is unnecessary

How can your body escape once you are passed out? Something else must have happened like knot coming loose?

I agree ... i feel like partial is for those who want the "high" or thrill not certain death.

A simulation?

 

[Csmith8827]

A simulation?

Yes, imagine like the game "the Sims" where no one is real except yourself. And the world is simulated as well. The day I went to buy a shotgun my I.D. disappeared from my wallet. I'm not joking. It's all apart if this sick entities game. I live in a simulation run by a supernatural being. Read the short story "mile 81" by Stephen King.

Mile 81 - Wikipedia

"It is eventually revealed that the "station wagon" is not a station wagon at all, but a sentient, extra-terrestrial entity that only assumed the form of an earthly vehicle in order to lure in unsuspecting victims."


I might sound crazy but what if the "crazy person" is telling the truth?

That's cool and all, but I read about failed partial hangings way more than full suspension. Also if someone finds you and a hell of a lot easier for them to stop you when you're slumped on the ground vs hanging in the air.

I know why I failed mine. As it was on an impulse, and when I act on an impulse I do things the wrong way.
Maybe a lot of people failing their attempt is because they don't take time to really think about how to do it. They just catch the first thing they can hang to and shit happens.

 

[Walilamdzi]

I felt really uncomfortable and afraid and unfastened the rope.

What did you do wrong..can you elaborate please

Not crazy really—there are astrophysicists that speculate that the Human experience is a simulation. The double slit experiment is among the most famous speculation test that is a proponent of this theory.

"Simulation" is a good way to describe life.

no, my body would thrash and my feet would somehow find their way to the ground and i would literally wake up standing. it was SI. i know a knot wasn't loose because i was able to pass out multiple times. i actually thrashed so much while i was out that i knocked down a door.

 

[Alain]

I was in a clinic at the time. I did what I could with what I had : a scarf, and a window like this one. So i made a fat knot at the extremity of my scarf and put it by the top side of the windows so the knot will be locked at the bottom. To the other extremity I made another knot around my neck. But as the all setup was a bit too close to the ground, I just past out for a moment until my breathing (being louder) woke me up.

Are you in Europe? That photo looks like a European style window, which would definitely not work.

I agree and think it´s a very strong possibility that I live in a simulation it seems so often that certain things interferes with my "life" e.g. it could have been a complete dry day and a few seconds after I step out of the door to go for a walk it starts raining, or when I am about to cross the road a car get simulated around the corner just to make me anxious of whether to cross the road or wait, the same has happened many times at night on a walk like it´s 3am and I have been walking for 20 minutes while seeing no cars and the second I need to cross the road a car appears coincidence I think not! and most recently I was planning to ctb a certain day and then my little brother asks me if I want to wash his bedsheets since he can´t himself and they haven´t been washed in a year yet he asks me this just as I plan to ctb that day or the next day what are the chances?

I also often feel the universe or simulation just hates me or plays with me by doing all this things and for giving me more and more physical and mental problems and making them worse I got many more examples and it just seems so unlikely that.

Also I think the current theory of The Big Bang is nonsense it makes no sense or explanation for at to why they always start with first there was nothing and BANG our universe were created it makes as much sense as religion my theory in relations to the simulation hypothesis is that The Big Bang is just like when you turn on a Game it makes more sense imo.

I think the double slit experiement is in fact the biggest proof that we might be living in a simulation I mean it makes no sense at all why the matter/particles would act differently when observed almost as if the creaters of the simulation don´t want us to find out. There is also a man in this documentary below who I don´t know the name of who explains that our universe it made up of a computer code not the ones we use for games but a lot different one

 

[AlreadyGone]

Every hanging failure thread I have seen on this forum was related to partial. If it was full suspension, it was a result of something breaking.

I've always wondered this though. When they say "observe" they mean by a Human being? Because if observing means a video camera and it still acts differently, how would we know the difference between an observed behavior of the particles, and and unobserved?

Yeah they never explain how it was observed in some videos they make it look like it was a human eye who was the observer but it must have been some kind of camera because the human eye wouldn´t be able to see such small particles.

But I don´t think it matters how we observe it even if the particles were large enough to be observed just by us observing them either through our eyes or spying on them through a camera the simulation probably would know.

 

[PrettyMoose]

Many people report backing out due to not passing out and feeling like their head was about to explode. It takes less pressure to compress the jugular than the carotid so that is why.

 

[ManWithNoName]

They botched a lot of those that were sentenced to hang at the WWII tribunals in Europe. This may have more to do with that the designated executioner purposely wanted to make their deaths a bit longer and more painful, or simply the rope was very thick.

 

[Alain]

I do live in France yes. I thought it would work when I tried. Actually I think it may have worked if I used something less "elastic" than my scarf. Because the knot through the window did what I wanted it to do.

What can I say..? I'm dumb, and I'm dumber when my feelings are hurt.

Don't let this frustrate you—these are rough times for you.

 

[Notwinnernotawin]

Survival instinct kicks in. Bad knots. Ropes that aren't strong enough.

 

[suicideintended]

This is one of my preferred methods that I'm still researching. I'm not sure how any of it works (knot wise, I don't know if I would do it right) as this is the first time I've logically and properly planned ctb. The last time I tried was a Seroquel overdose. Almost worked but didn't. I have seen there are a lot of failed hangings. I don't want to fail... this is a useful thread for me.

Peace from me to you ❤
