Statistics say 5 to 10 minutes, very few cases longer, but usually associated with different severity of brain damage.
Emergency medicine advises to save someone faster than 3 minutes from total cerbral anoxia.

It's statistically hard to say, as many people "saved" within 3 ore more minutes of suspension die of complications like pneumonia or thrombosis or hemorrhages, due to different degrees of cerebral damage.

Death by hanging occurs within 3-5 minutes, this is the time for brain death. The heart my keep beating for up to 25 minutes. In British executions by hanging they would leave the body hang for 1 hour to ensure death was complete.

10 deceased having died delayed deaths after near hanging episode were identified

Sounds like a good and fast way to leave this world. I´ve read about a few minutes to half an hour for full body death

Probably physiological variances and other mechanics. Having a thick neck, percise noise placement.

How they position the rope & knot, if they subconsciously struggle/fight it when unconscious. Their own physical health & strength.
I would also suspect the strength innate "lizard brain" has a factor. Some seem to fight/struggle until the very end whilst others just seem to let it happen with minor reflex movements.
The end result is the same, provided there are no failures

I've thought about full suspension but what concerns me is gagging sounds attracting attention and I'm a light weight person (105 lbs) I assume I'd need to add weights to my person to be effective.... any suggestions would be appreciated

When a person hangs on his own weight, he basically hangs on his own broken cervical bone. Because the cervical vertebrae are slightly apart, broken, one of the bones in the cervical spine is torn, it comes apart.
Therefore, spinal fluid begins to travel from the brain down to the body.
However, because the nerves are numb due to lack of contact between the vertebrae and the body's nerves, physical strength fails completely.
In living consciousness without the ability to move, therefore, you hang on to your broken bone without being able to move.
DEATH usually occurs within 8 to 10 minutes due to brain death. Fluid from the brain passes down the spinal cord into the body, the brain has no food, no oxygen, no blood, cerebrospinal fluid flows down.
If the knot is tied correctly, the rope around the neck is strongly tightened when falling, which immediately prevents breathing: from this moment also choking occurs, resulting in fainting within 2 minutes (while above takes place simultaneously). And after falling unconscious, there is death due to suffocation + death due to drainage of cerebrospinal fluid down the spine. Both can be the cause.
The worst consequence of suicide or attempted suicide by hanging is a permanent disability when a person is rescued in the first few minutes after hanging - how many minutes exactly, don't know. At that time, the cerebrospinal fluid had not yet begun to pass down the spinal cord, but the cervical spine was severely damaged and the nerves affected, so the person is disabled, condemning it to a life of plant or tetraplegic.

Found this on another forum. Seems like hell to go in my opinion.

Full suspension creates no noises (from body) as body weight closes off air passages.
