Man Survives Passing out With Head in Museum Noose

September 23, 2010 (AP)

An Arkansas man got a frightening look at frontier justice when he passed out with a display noose around his head during a trip to a Wild West-themed Kansas museum, officials said.

Police in Dodge City, Kan., have declined to release the name of the 69-year-old visitor from Parks, Ark. They said he lost consciousness Wednesday and slumped in the "Hanging Tree" noose display at the Boot Hill Museum.

Museum director Lara Brehm said museum staff and two women he was with helped remove the man from the noose, and that he regained consciousness before being taken to a hospital.

1. I can think of a lot of questions about this

But I don't think the answers will make me understand WHY.

2. Hey, he just missed the Total Boot Hill Experience.

Still, I guess it's all the noose that's fit to print.

3. Good. God.. you know at 68 yo., he very likely has reproduced...

5. Auto-erotic asphyxiation at his age?

Couldn't he just have gone for the Viagra?

6. Johnny Carson once hanged himself on the Tonight Show.

They had on a hollywood stuntman to come on to show him how they do it safely in western movies. Maybe people shouldn't try that at home.
