Full suspension hanging failures

[Deleted member 17949]

Does anyone have any experience of failing a full suspension hanging? I've tried to avoid the obvious problems; picked somewhere I won't be found, using a strong rope, using a strong support and making sure I know an appropriate knot to use. Are there any other things that are likely to cause a failure? I've kinda assumed that if I'm correctly suspended for an hour uninterrupted I'll probably die.

May be hard to find accurate information on someone failing the attempt that isn't from a family member or a friend-of-a-friend. Suspension that fails may be damaging to the point where someone could not have any functionality left.
