any reason a slip knot is preferable to a hangmans noose?

[alwaysdopesick]

everyone says to use a slipknot why not go with the classic?

 

[Apricity]

Hangman's knot is designed for drop hangings, it snaps your neck. For partial or full suspension where you just step off of a chair or something, it won't tighten on its own to close off the arteries. The slipknot tightens under load. You can technically still use the hangman's knot, but you'll end up choking for a while instead of passing out quickly.

wont the string just slide out of the slipknot or am i doing it wrong?
