I have seen many posts about hanging and partial hanging, some of them say you have to place the rope around your neck right under adam's apple, some say around the carotid, some say right under the jaw, my question is where exactly is that?
I'm a bit fat so I can't exactly feel my adam's apple.
In the simplest terms should I place it in the bottom of my neck? Middle or right under the jaw which is the highest point of my neck?

I question this too. Just when I think I've found the right answer, I read another comment that says something different.
My own understanding would be to place the rope where you feel the pulse on your neck. Higher up on the neck under jaw. But I could be wrong. I'm hoping other members can help with this question that seems to be frequently asked. I just can't see it going lower on the neck because the pulse from your carotids aren't felt there and the rope would ride up once you lower yourself.
Can others please share your thoughts so some of us can feel more confident.
