using sauna to ctb

[soolka]

this may sound silly but many people in my country alone die in sauna. alcohol is often involved and they pass out in sauna and die of dehydration/heatstroke. i own a sauna and i wonder if taking a combination of pills and alcohol and passing out would do the trick?

Wouldn't dry sauna cool down itself after some time if you fall unconciouss? and then temperature won't be high enough to end you in that case. Correct me if im wrong,
Although I think steam bath sauna is better for CTB, because it solves problem with cooling down as time passes and there is something like wet bulb temperature that are more dangerous than just low-humidity high temperatures.

Turn the sauna to the highest temperature possible, dehydrate yourself, knock yourself unconscious with benzos or opioids, and do not use antipyretics.

That is my advice.

Let's say one skips the pills and sticks only with an alcohol of their choice…

If one manages to pass out in the sauna from the alcohol alone, it may be classified as an accidental death and not a suicide*, which may bring some sort of comfort to any loved ones, etc vs. an obvious suicide where pills are discovered at the scene or during autopsy. Then again, an autopsy isn't a guarantee for every death. Some families choose not to have an autopsy performed for various reasons.

An interesting idea for sure.

(*To be clear, I'm not saying suicide is a shameful act at all. On the contrary, I'm thinking of how right to die and "suicide" are largely perceived in a derogatory way)

Via Mayo Clinic

Heatstroke can result in a number of complications, depending on how long the body temperature is high. Severe complications include:

• Vital organ damage. Without a quick response to lower body temperature, heatstroke can cause your brain or other vital organs to swell, possibly resulting in permanent damage.
• Death. Without prompt and adequate treatment, heatstroke can be fatal.

The addition of alcohol would likely speed the process. One wouldn't necessarily need pills - maybe a benzodiazepine to take the edge off, if anything. The alcohol alone I feel would be enough.
