Why is it impossible to choke yourself to death?

Answer 1

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker

Because it's natural for your body to want to prevent it from happening. You will only get so far and you will let go and gasp for air. That's just how the human works. Plus when you lose consiousness you will let go then be able to breath again.

Answer 5

Because when you choke yourself you eventually lose conciousness, therefore losing the ability to continue choking yourself.

Answer 6

If you're talking about strangling yourself with your own hands, it's because your hands will fall relaxed after you go unconscious.

Answer 7

if you hang yourself it's possible but if you are just chocking yourself with your hands it is not because once you pass out you will automaticlly start to breathe again
