what are the risks of exit bag?

[randomuser97]

Hi im doing research on exit bags. I think its a very good method but i am concerned about the risks. I know that sometimes people might panic and rip the bag off. What other risks are there? I want to take precautions.

If someone 'saves' you, you could survive as a vegetable or with permanent brain damage. The method is a relatively long one and you need to ensure privacy for about an hour.

thanks. I am usually alone so that is not a problem for me. I am more concerned about the bag ripping off if I convulse or if i panic and pull the bag off my head.

Also, make sure that you have about 1h of nitrogen flow. A 5L bottle at 15L/min will give you about 65 minutes.

Having food at least 3 to 4 hours before this method helps reduce any puking sensation. Because that's enough time for food to get digested. Lighter meals are also helpful.
