Strangled
Strangling or strangulation is the compression of the neck leading to an increasingly hypoxic state in the brain, which can lead to unconsciousness or even death. Fatal strangulation typically occurs in cases of violence, accidents, and is one of two main ways that hanging causes death (alongside breaking the victim's neck).
Strangling does not have to be fatal; limited or interrupted strangling is practiced in erotic asphyxia, in the choking game, and is an important technique in many combat sports and self-defense systems. Strangling can be divided into three general types according to the mechanism used:
Hanging — Suspension from a cord wound around the neck
Ligature strangulation — Strangulation without suspension using some form of cord-like object (ligature) called a garrote
Manual strangulation — Strangulation using the fingers, hands, or other extremity
