Can a large concrete structural beam be used an anchor point in Full Suspension Hanging?
What types of knots are best to tie a rope around a square-ish structure? I've searched for some knots that are done specifically for square surfaces but I don't think they can resist holding my weight before coming undone... or could any type of knot go around this type of structure?

Would an ethernet cable work for this method? I'm 55kg, unsure if it'd be strong enough for me though
And what other type of knot do we use to tie the "rope" to the metal bar in the wardrove?

does anyone know if something like a bedsheet would be good for partial hanging?I just thought this information is better off here now, because the original source has been taken down.

Guide to partially suspended hanging:
Warning: Don't try this method unless you're totally sure that:
a) you want to kill yourself
b) that you won't be found for at least 30 minutes after you attempt.
This method is very lethal and quick (quick from your perspective
anyway, as you black out within seconds), but if you're found in time
and 'saved' you can end up with serious brain damage and/or be left a
vegetable.
Why partial suspension?
Because full suspension seems to me to be unnecessary and creates
difficulties. First of all you need to find a place which would hold
your entire weight, which isn't easy, and also you need a stronger
ligature, which isn't always easy to find either. There's nothing
wrong with full suspension, but it may not be a viable method for
everyone, especially if you're looking to use everyday materials from
around the home.
By partial suspension I mean that you hang yourself around the neck
(specifically the carotid artery), and push downwards while kneeling.
This should create enough downward pressure on the ligature to tighten
it and close the carotid artery and stop the blood flow to your brain.
All you need is 3 kilograms of pressure to do this, which isn't much
at all.
Also, with full suspension your entire body weight is pressurizing
your neck, and this would probably be more than enough to not only cut
off the blood supply to your brain, but break your neck as well. I'm
not too sure if that's a good or a bad thing. I do know though, that
statistically people who've attempted via hanging have more often been
found kneeling and partially suspended than being fully suspended.
Where is the carotid artery?
Before you start you have to know this. If you place your hand around
the middle of your neck, around your Adam's apple, with one thumb on
one side and all fingers on the other, you should feel a strong pulse
and heartbeat. If you close your hand now fairly firmly, you'll
probably make yourself pass out. It might be a good idea to try this
to make sure you've got the right spot.
What type of ligature?
You need a ligature that's strong, but not too elastic. It doesn't
have to be very long, 1 meter or more would be plenty. I'd advise
against nylon rope, string, fishing wire, etc.
Neckties on the other hand, are perfect Smile .
It may also be a good idea to lubricate the ligature with soap. This
would help the noose tighten even quicker, especially if you're using
a rough ligature such as a rope. Lubricating it in this way will
increase the friction once you push your head down and tighten the
noose, and could make it a little more effective and faster.
What type of knot?
A slipknot. It's one of the most basic knots around, and you make it
with one end of your ligature. The other end should go around your
hanging place.
Many people have the misguided idea that a hangman's knot should be
used, but they're wrong. A hangman's knot is for a completely
different purpose, and won't work for this method.
Where should I hang?
You should hang from a support which will hold part of your weight.
You should test this by tying the loose end of your ligature around
the support several times, sticking your hand (NOT your head) in the
noose and pushing down with it. If the noose holds, you're fine. If
not, then you'll have to find another spot.
A great and easy place to hang is from the thick horizontal metal bar
which you find in wardrobes in most homes.
When should I do it?
When no one else will be in the same area, for at least 30 minutes.
You lose consciousness within seconds but your body doesn't completely
die for around 15-20 minutes. The extra 10-15 minutes is for
preparation time and just in case.
How?
When you're completely ready, kneel down, stick your head in the
noose, position it around the carotid artery and push downwards with
your head.
Good luck...
As to above, as I'm sure last time I checked there was a lot more information on how to do this.

Yeah, or like these cases.
How do you hang yourself with a knotted sheet in a jailhouse shower?

I'm hoping to ctb within the next month. My question is what is something reliable within a hotel room that I can use to anchor the rope to?

From Chat GBT If you're writing a short story and want technical accuracy, a hangman's noose (which includes multiple coils) is traditionally used for executions because it tightens gradually and distributes pressure. A simple slipknot, on the other hand, can loosen unexpectedly and may not function as intended. I am going with history tonight.

I have tested different knots, and I don't like the Hangman's Noose. It's too stiff and doesn't tighten easily. Personally, I wouldn't use it for simple full suspension or partial hanging. Maybe it's a good choice for long-drop, I don't know, but that's not something I'm considering.
The simple Noose Knot is unreliable indeed, you're right, but the Noose Knot with a stopper knot is great, and that's what I like the best. The stopper knot makes it very reliable, and it still slides and tightens very easily.
I also like the Poacher's Knot. that's secure as well, and slides relatively easily, but not as easy as the Noose Knot with a stopper knot.
Could you explain how both of these knots could work together? Like, should I tie the stopper knot immediately above the noose knot?

Basically, yes. As you say, tie a stopper knot right above the Noose Knot, on the working end or short end, and pull it down and tighten it right above the Noose Knot. A simple Overhad Knot or Double Overhead Knot is fine.
Like, in the video below, except you don't need to tie the stopper knot first, you can tie it afterwards. Also, it should be put close to the Noose Knot, right above it, and not far apart like in the video.

Well, I tied the upper stopper knot at a point where the noose's loop is big enough to fit my head in, and then one at the end, I'm still struggling to understand the mechanism of the knots...
Even though I used the shortest distance between the noose knot to tie both stopper knots there was still a little distance between them. But I think it wont matter much...

I'm sorry, but it's not clear to me what you don't understand, or what you're struggling with. I'm not being sarcastic, it's really hard to figure out what you are doing exactly.
If you don't fully understand the mechanism of the knots, be careful, because you might be doing the wrong thing, which is not good. I'm not sure whether this is the case or not, but you might be confused with which end is which. It does matter, and it's important. There is only one stopper knot, at the short end. The other end is the free-sliding end.
Try this: Follow exactly what the video says from the beginning to the end. Then, try to loosen the stopper knot a bit, and wiggle it down towards the noose knot, and tighten it again as close to it as you can. This should give you the end result you're looking for.
Yeah, I was confused about the ends but now I got it. Thanks!
ok i understand everything but this...
you're NOT supossed to be push on your carotid artery with your fingers, right?
you are, however, supossed to have the noose push onto your carotid artery, by moving your head down?
after positioning the noose in the exact spot.
but my concern with that, is that the noose slips and moves away from the carotid artery.
because the carotid artery seems so small, it's such a small spot on the neck.
how can be sure the rope doesn't move away from the carotid artery?
------------
but if the rope DID accidentally move away from the carotid atery,
AFTER you already passed out, would you still die?
Can you still breathe during this? i've tried but I can still breath so idk if it's workingI just thought this information is better off here now, because the original source has been taken down.

Yes it is.
Idk where you're supposed to place this, whenever I swallow it's extremely uncomfortable
Maybe it's fate trying to give you a hint that you may have a future ahead of you on earth as its pretty hard to fail at hanging as its pretty straightforward,since it failed I'd see that as a sign that it's just not your time and use it to find an alt way to move forward to get your situation into a better more positive living routine as death is final,no coming back,no fixing it once passed out. Personally if I was you I'd see it as a sign and seek some help from a pro to help me move forward with what was making me want to go on that final journey as it could prove surprisingly helpful & good,if u struggle to talk to people u can also go online for none face to face chats with people who'd be willing to listen to you and advise when and where they can,this final journey is a very deep and permanent decision so please don't make it fast & offhand,think it through for atleast a month and see how you feel afterwards,you never know you might see some glimmer of hope for a better future. Sorry if this isn't what u wanna hear,am just saying it as it is because too many make a fast decision and do it but if they thought about it for weeks they may of thought differently. I pray u make the best decision for you after careful consideration of what I've said.
Thanks for that, but do you hate suicide? If you hate it then you might not like this place you know...

I tried hanging myself the other time by kneeling down and compressing my carotid arteries
. However it did not work. Is this because I'm not putting enough pressure on the carotid arteries?

Hello everyone
For hanging by total suspension, do i have to use a slipknot or a hangman's knot ?
Because i saw a lot o pics of hangman's knot with total suspension on the first pages of the thread.
Thanks in advance.
