Has anyone tried self strangulation like this before?

It made me think what if we used weights or something (with enough strength to close the carotids) tied to a noose on the neck? You could just hang your neck off the end of a couch with the weight pulling down until unconsciousness.

Someone posted a sketch the other day with almost the exact same idea. I haven't seen any other discussion on it.

My main concern is that the subject is still mobile and may begin to sieze after falling unconscious and dislodge the weights, cutting the attempt short.

That's a lot like PSH, I would check that out, just failed an attempt due to SI kicking in
