I think there was a variant of this in Japan involving masturbation. From what I recall there were some deaths, at first attributed to suicide, then they figured out it was just Darwin at work.

yeah people do that all the time where i live with the mentioned method above… no one has ever died… I’m sure using a cord or something cuts off something vital.

I remember a “game” like this in my grammar school back in the mid to late 1970s. Back then, it was done either by someone else pressing their hands on the front and sides of your neck (not full choking), or by doing it to yourself. I guess we had more sense back then, because nobody ever suggested using a belt/rope to do it alone. Nobody ever died from it, in fact I don’t recall anyone even passing out, just getting a little dizzy.

You know, with the amount of money being spent on anti-drug/alcohol/smoking/unprotected sex educational campaigns, it’s ridiculous that they wouldn’t give any attention to this. When was the last time someone ever died from smoking a joint? And yet here’s something that most parents know nothing about, and kids dismiss as a harmless activity. Nobody is being informed about the physical ramifications of it, and kids are dying as a consequence of these “educators” sheer negligence.
