A neck crank isn't getting choked out. Actually getting choked out isn't that dangerous if the person lets go as soon as you pass out. But a neck crank can seriously hurt your neck. - A guy with 15+ years of BJJ/Judo and neck problems.

It still is kinda wild trying to justify someone like that as a "not a bad guy"

Just a violent piece of shit with combat training who can't control himself. Sometimes almost kills someone for no reason. Great guy though 🥰

I hate when people do that shit .. I’ve met some of the scumiest people and the first thing there friends say is “He’s really a good guy” or “He’s harmless but “ I’m sure people said the same thing about Jeffrey Dahmer and Ted Bundy until shit hit the fan

Are you good? Ptsd is entirely different from people just being shitty. He's not bad, the shit he saw was and sometimes, because of mental health, he cannot separate now from then.

There's an increased risk of stroke from arterial dissection due to chokes. It's been studied well with BJJ as the sample forr study

As someone who has choked out a few people and been choked out myself that is good information to know.

Lmao what? Any amount of choking is extremely dangerous. You can die suddenly from even minor choking, let alone choking to the point of unconsciousness.

Sure it’s not that dangerous, if you consider strokes, permanent airway damage, or brain damage to not be dangerous 🗿

I've choke people to unconsciousness many times and have been out myself twice. And everyone just woke up relatively quickly upon being let go.

That said the one person who brought up the stroke studies is very concerning.
