Hanging with additional weights

[awaitingdeath]

Will carrying additional weight of let's say 20-30 kgs expedite the passing out while hanging ?

I doubt it would make any difference really if your body weight is already in play.

I dont think so, but it might increase the risk of the rope breaking.

It shouldn't be necessary. It would be more productive to put one's efforts into making sure the rope is strong enough, that the correct knot is used and tied correctly, that the anchor is sufficiently strong to hold one's weight, that one won't be discovered prematurely, etc.

Being discovered prematurely is an issue in some cases, how loud do you think hanging is, in some cases people can't find as isolated of a spot as they would like. Also, how much moving around is there, how strong does the thing tied to have to be.

First of all the noises depends on person to person, some make very heavy noises and some make little to no noises, second is moving around which is also depends but if your doing drop hanging then it wont be an issue but if it's partial then i recommend what the 21 year old swedish man did(u can find that video here in the search option) and the thing should be strong enough to hold ur weight (for both partial and full) u can test it by doing pull ups, btw i really recommend buying a doorway pull up bar it's really effective and u can always fix where u wanna set it up and it can obviously hold ur weight.

Was speaking generally like if you did it at home and someone walked in on you. Meant the right knot for the neck end. I assume you'd tie the other end secure enough to your anchor point. Have no idea what sounds someone could make while hanging.
