That's a misconception. Hyperventilation doesn't cause any somewhat significant increase of oxygen blood saturation, and it doesn't cause "poisoning" with oxygen either. The primary effect of hyperventilation is decreasing the level of carbon dioxide in the blood, leading to deficiency of CO2 which causes constriction of blood vessels, dizziness and tingling sensations. After hyperventilation, you can hold your breath longer, because more time is needed then to accumulate CO2 up to the point when hypercapnia (causing the sense of urge to breath) occurs.
not to sound stupid, but how do you know all this? like whats your background? every time i see a comment from you i learn something new, i appreciate it
From reading various articles / literature, such as
Me too, I learned a ton from reading his posts. Thanks to his posts, I have a reliable method.
You weren't here for some time, I am glad to see you here.
I was thinking of choking myself by swallowing napkins and obstructing my throat. @Intoxicated replied and suggested me use cans of one of those gases. And the rest is history: today, I have method, and everything bought, and I am ready to ctb
i didn't know this existed, thank you!!
I google searched effects of gases, it seems my knowledge is accurate. My method should work. I will try deepseek, what if it suggests new ideas.
just make sure to enable r1 and the search functionality!
I didn't try it on purpose, but I was close to achieving it accidentally once. Despite hyperventilation, I had to deal with a strong urge to breathe. I was able to endure that urge till it disappeared and clouding of consciousness appeared. When I noticed that I was close to losing consciousness, I came up for air immediately.
There is a way more easy method of achieving blackout, by using gas asphyxiation (for example, with nitrous oxide).
Oh wow ok, so you did notice the loss of consciousness coming ? In many testimonials from survivors, and on swb videos, people just seem to snap like this without any warning.
In that case, you mean blacking out before being in the water ? Just wondering how the body would react with the contact of water, or the first sensation of drowning. I'm not super familiar with gas asphyxiation.
Yes, I had my eyes closed and for a few seconds I almost forgot where I was, but the sense of impending loss of consciousness was apparent. I also clearly notice when clouding of consciousness occurs and how further transition to unconsciousness goes during nitrous oxide asphyxiation.
Perhaps, the ability to recognize and/or remember hypoxia-induced symptoms varies between people. Recently I talked to a man who tried breathing helium, and it seems he was unable to recall how his transition to unconsciousness happened. Meanwhile, I can memorize my perceptions during clouding of consciousness before complete blackout from nitrous very well.
In my case, fainting from nitrous is never immediate. There is always some period of clouding of consciousness, during which I gradually lose my ability to do coordinated moves, and shortly before complete blackout I feel nearly paralyzed. So technically loss of consciousness is likely to occur after submerging, unless you fall into water from some big height.
Even if you regain partial consciousness somehow, hypoxia together with the anesthetic effect of N2O should significantly reduce any possible discomfort, and the next blackout should occur much sooner than in case of plain drowning without prior gas asphyxiation.
