Which movie, specifically?

I remember this being a fad when i was in about 7th or 8th grade...only it wasn't so crazy, and it only lasted about a week. Basically you would huff and puff big deep breaths really quickly then someone would punch you in the chest and you'd kinda faint. But whatever, kids today are morons.
When I have kids, I'm going to make them start off right...first video game they get...atari...then they graduate to the NES...then to the SNES...then to N64 or playstation...then on to whatever newfangled device will be out then. That'll make em appriciate good old games! little bastards...

to bluecc: just about every movie with a killer or well some erotic ones but thats something else...

to scubasteve: i want retro kids!

No movie is going to take the time to get it right. You have to hold the neck hard, really hard, for about four or five mintues to kill them. That's a long time to use the muscles of your hand that much.

Not that I'd know.

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Wait! Wait! Wait! You would submit voluntarily to passing out from being punched in the chest, but kids today are morons?

Damn! And I thought we were idiots for playing "booties up" handball*



*The loser bends over and grabs his ankles and using the handball, the other players take shots at his rear. I would always say, "Fuck that! I ain't playing" when someone would call out "Booties Up!" That was part of the archaic rule. You had to announce "Booties Up" before the game began. Chinese Handball, btw.

.

dats word

and it's not the airway obstruction that kills em it's the lack of blood flow to the brain

you can compress the carotids easier than you can crush the trachea

but those arteries pop open as soon as you let up a little on the pressure after they pass out

and there's the vertebrals around back that are still wide open, those don't carry enough blood to maintain consciousness but they allow you to linger in the mortal plain a bit longer

sooo if you're choking the life out of someone, make sure you check their pulse after you're done to make sure they dead

it's embarrassing otherwise when they come back to get you later

Oh, I never did it. I have a fundamental objection to letting someone punch me...

I had a friend that would choke himself. He would lean over, breathe really heavy, then grab his neck (jugulars) and then stand up. He would pass out in about 5 or 6 seconds. My buddies always laughed. I was scared shitless.

So did all the participants of this game die out or was it another hyped up stupid thing the news folks decided to focus on during a slow day.



by the way...
