What's the best size rope for hanging?

[Dark Moon]

What the title says, I'm seriously thinking of going with hanging but I don't know which size to get 10mm, 12mm, 14mm, 18mm?

Well, as far as I know it should be as wide as your thumb.

I'm using a belt that's pretty thin and it's almost made me pass out in many practice rounds I did. I was using a kneeling position, too.

I think its relatively less important than the position of the knot behind your head and whether or not you're actually pressing against your carotid arteries. Based on what I've seen here, people's carotids differ in location and there's no universal position.

I saw a guide here that said to put the loop above your Adam's Apple and it did not work for me because it turns out my carotids are just right beside it lol.

Not encouraging but why not look at climbing rope, ya know, gym grade or industrial where they were made to suspend humans off of a Cliff face?

You've might read this thread already but just in case, it's most likely discussed on there.

10mm and 12mm are what's usually suggested.

Thanks for telling me. I'll buy 12mm rope soon.

From what I saw those ropes are very thick. I don't mind either way, whichever kills me the fastest.
