The blackout game...

When I was in eighth grade, Mike F. and I discovered we could render each other unconscious with the sleeper hold. We would do this in the music room on the couch. It never really worked on my, I came close to blackout but my body was used to abuse and I would always manage to come back from near blackout. I think it would have worked it anyone was brave enough to do it for long enough. Mike, he used to drop like a log.

It seems we aren't the only kids to discover the blackout game. It seems some people are doing it by themselves and dying when the rube-gold-berg machines they invent to knock themselves out fail to stop cutting off the blood to the brain. Posted by pqbon at November 25, 2003 5:16 PM | TrackBack
