[Amber1974]

It probably means you are only compressing the jugular arteries and not the carotids, so that blood can get into the head but can't come back out. The carotids are a bit deeper in so I guess the solution would be more pressure... and it should be sudden, like a sudden slumping down with your whole body weight instead of slumping down gradually or just leaning in. Not sure if this will work but it's worth a try

I haven't yet tried the sudden fall. Still too scared of doing that.

This is my opinion, too!

So in full suspension it doesn't hurt that much?

 

[c-n]

Yes, surely. It will be much better when nor blood will come in your head neither blood will leave it.

I think (I'm not sure) that when you are fully suspended the initial pain will be intense, since your neck is holding all your weight, but consciousness should be lost fairly quickly... I hope. I read in a study that analized taped suicidal hangings that it took 8-18 seconds to lose consciousness when fully suspended

 

[c-n]

It takes about 10 seconds to lose consciousness. I tested it and it didn't hurt much. I felt some pressure caused by the noose but as I said, it does't cause much pain.

You can try a different position of rope on your neck. Now blood can´t out from your head and the pressure grows. You must find the position, where blood can´t into your head. It will be better. It is the good property of the partial hanging. You can looking for a ideal configuration. During complete hanging you have only one atempt find the good way. Here is the good property escape isn´t possible.
