We just talked to our big boys about this issue and apparently there are kids at their school who've tried to hyperventilate in order to pass out. They said that as far as they know, no one actually strangles themselves, but I was surprised that it's common enough for it to be common knowledge among the students.

I'm glad you posted this monster; otherwise I'd never have asked my kids about it.
