Essentially what i am thinking about is a kind of giant hinged clamp that would emulate the effect of a carotid control choke: a method of compressing the carotid arteries of a person so that they pass out almost instantly by denying bloodflow to the brain while still leaving the windpipe unblocked. It's what cops use to try to choke people out when they need to, and is called "The Sleeper Hold" once it came into WWE. When i was a kid my dumb little friends and me would dare each other to do it each other because it felt really weird but didn't really hurt. But if contact is kept on the carotids after you pass out you would be brain dead in 20 minutes.
I have made a few "prototypes" out of just some 2x2s and an old hinge but I cant seem to get it to where it will actually block off the carotids. I have messed around with padding, wrapping towels around etc, but nothing.
I think that the arms of the "clamp" need to have a wishbone curve in them but I cant figure out what materials I would need to get that effect. Maybe I need a 3D printer lol.
I dont know if its my lack of anatomical knowledge or my lack of engineering knowledge but if anyone is interested in this I think it would be a meaningful project to get right.
Having a cheap legal easy to come by and completely painless suicide method would shake the world up.
just make it a tube you wrap around you neck, which gets inflated at the point where the carotid is . Something like what you put your arm into to get your blood pressure. (so you can undo it wen you realize killing yourself isn't what you wanted)

It's really not that difficult OP, you are overthinking it. You need two plastic rods, rubber tubes for the rods,industrial bolts ,washers and bolt for the joint and a strong steel spring at the ends of the joint. Next thing you need is to drill into the plastic pipes bolts and nuts in a orderly fashion like holes in a belt in order to adjust the angle where the veins are.
You could replace the plastic with metal. It's a very simple 3 piece design. I'm not an engineer and I can make this dirt cheap.

I think he's trying
>rent a helium tank
>buy an oxygen mask
>use it as a helium mask
>go forever sweepies
Why would you want to crush your throat in a hinge when you could just do this??

How do you test it?
