In the case of AEA, hopefully your preferred setup, allows for the neck pressure to be reduced when you black out and go limp.
Try it BikesandCars, several times.... report back with your findings.
And, to your other point, I guess he should of said, "I am having a hard time breathing" instead of "I [currently] can't breathe".
or to be more correct, maybe he should of said, "Dear officer, you are currently restricting the blood flow of my carotid artery to brain"
yes yes, that has a better ring to it.
