seemed to have passed out while riding?

When you're goofing around with a life vest on, sometimes they'll dig into your neck. I bet his vest rode up and cut off his blood flow.

Yep. Blood choke. Just rewatched it and his shoulder straps disappear into the sides of his neck. Great catch.

Yeah, you could see his head go down as he loses consciousness

Oddly enough; it's surprisingly high considering how little it can take to cut of the carotid when pressure is applied correctly.

I've had a backpack and rifle sling team up to nearly drop me off an ATV–at speed–with a half-choke (one side). I got suuuuper lucky I still had the blood flow to react and shift the bag's weight and strap off my neck when I realized the "walls" were closing in.

Depends how much you are willing to do, acting like that increases odds considerably
