As I stated, it looks to be a case of auto-erotic asphyxiation without the erotic aspect. I should think that's a fairly simple sentence to understand. He killed himself by hanging.

There are things people do that seem to defy common sense, they are so insane-sounding, but they happen. I knew a woman who was arrested for a DUI, got sobered up, got out on minimal bail, went home, and hanged herself with a plastic bag from the grocery store, tying it around her neck and to a kitchen doorknob. If I hadn't seen the photographs and attended her funeral, I wouldn't have believed it could be done, but Sandy wanted to die, and she did it.

With Mr. Sparkman and Mr. Carradine, both used the exact same technique, but for different outcomes. Carradine wanted a bigger bang, Sparkman wanted to die and make it look like a homicide.

There is everything in common in terms of what they actually did; why they did it is where the difference rises, but, at this point, it doesn't really matter. Dead is dead.
