All the hysteria about triggering POCs over lynching because of a piece of rope... As a little white boy growing up in south AL in the early 1960s, I'd never even heard of 'lynching', but all of my friends and I had seen enough Westerns, that we frequently tried tying that hangman's noose. There was no racist or terroristic intent behind that inert piece of twine!
Same thing here except in north FL. I sure hope Bubba Wallace sees this post. I'd love to shake him up again like he got when he saw his first garage door pull.
You should know to position the knot to the side of the person's head, that way after the drop and sudden stop, the head is canted hard to one side breaking the neck for a quick and efficient kill. Otherwise they'll be swinging and kicking for a bit before suffocation.
And yeah, westerns. I remember trying to get that knot right as a little kid watching TV.
