Thank you for your information! The original question was posed by
another young man who was searching out alternative methods that would
result in decapitation, mainly of himself, but I too became interested
in the same search, with my own decapitation in mind! But where I'm
concerned, I have seen the results of thin-wire strangulation first
hand! A few months ago, I was in the hospital recovering from a
suicide attempt. Though I hanged myself, or rather tried to hang
myself, I used a 1/2-inch thick rope as my noose. The ironic part was
that my mother successfully hanged herself several hours earlier that
same day, and she used the very same rope I used! But during my
"stay", I was shown the body of a very attractive 16-year-old girl who
did hang herself using a wire. I was told she used a high-C guitar
string, which I believe is the thinnest string, as her noose. From
what I was told about her suicide attempt, she had a rather short drop
as she stepped off a chair to hang herself. The wire cut clean
through her neck and decapitated her! In fact, had her cause of death
not been known, you would have thought that she had been executed on a
guillotine, the cut was so clean! Seeing that young woman's body, and
how clean her head was cut off, I am even more interested in being
decapitated by this method!
