## Breathing through thick gags

Post by Nuclearo » Sat Apr 03, 2010 3:23 am

Well, first and foremost is breathing through the nose. If it's not covered you can just breathe like that. Breathing in is meant to be done primarily through the nose anyway. Also if the gag is made of cloth you might be able to breathe through it anyway, it would just be harder and less air would come through with each breath.

What do you mean that you need access to the mouth too? Try this: handgag yourself, then breather through your nose for a minute or two. You shouldn't feel fatigued at all, unless you have a cold or something.

Thats kind of the risk of using a thick gag though, if someone's nose gets stuffed up (and it doesn't even have to be from them being sick, you can make it happen just by tickling someone to tears or them wearing themselves out too much) they wont be able to breath and it gets dangerous. I wouldn't recommend EVER using thick gags unless you really really know what your doing and have someone watching the whole time.

Thick gag, OK lets think about this one logically, every gag will block off the airways to your mouth, whether it be a strip of tape across the lips, a cleave gag, a ball gag... they all do it! You can breathe in and out through your nose very easily!
All I suggest you do is that, if you are using a gag to make sure that they are free of a cold... because they can lead to problems!
Again, these accusations of people suffocating... obviously happened because the captor/tier was not there... you should under no circumstances leave a captive with a gag in, while elsewhere in the house etc.. It is highly dangerous!

Hand gags are only as loose as you make them. If you don't struggle and hold on tight then you can't breathe through your hand. I didn't really understand those last 2 sentences. What do you want me to demonstrate? That I can breathe? Trust me, I tested it before posting.

I think I'd me more worried of thick gags being so thick and so deep in there that they cause a "gagging" sensation (as in the choking type, not voice-stifling), and perhaps that can somehow attain the same effect as not being able to breathe.
But, as others had pointed out, breathing through the nose is as effective as breathing through the mouth. Think of people who sleep with their mouths closed. If humans must breathe through their mouths, there'd be a lot of dead sleepers out there! Also, how would you breathe while eating/chewing food? Through the nose!

Actually let's take it one step further: You're supposed to breathe in through the nose. The nose is better equipped to filter the air you breathe than the mouth. The hair and, disgustingly enough, the snot keep foreign object such as dust particles from entering your throat. So if it was soo made to breathe through, why wouldn't you be able to breathe through it?

You are quite right on that one nuclearo... even during everyday life, I barely breathe through my mouth, I breathe through my nose it is easily done.
It is also the best way like you said yourself. I don't see why people need to breathe through their mouths while gagged, if you were gagged by any sort of object YOU WILL still need to breathe through your nose, and if you cant do it, try practising it

...well, if that's the case, then a person would probably die from lack of hydration before he does from lack of air (and one shouldn't wear a gag for that long, anyway, so that's besides the point). So if you're talking about a matter of time, then sure, gags can kill given enough time. If for some reason the gag was big enough to cover the nose, then of course breathing will become a problem. But no matter how "thick," no matter how many layers of whatever is added to the gag on the mouth, the result is still the same: breathing through the nose is not in any way affected. Thus, breathing in general is not affected...unless you intend to shove that gag down someone's throat, then you've got yourself a problem.
It's like saying you have two holes in a bucket. Water can pour through any of the holes. What happens when you block one hole with a piece of duct tape? Water will still flow through the second hole, right? Now try plugging one of the holes with ten pieces of duct tape. What's the result?

Hmmm... your medical knowledge seems to be a bit rusty... I have been gagged with plenty of gags, and thick ones at that... I have never choked... I just breathe through my nose simple as that!

Yes I can see where you are coming from, but from my experiences, I have never choked! From the captives I have captured they have never choked! From the 1000's of videos I have watched of bondage, they have never choked. So whatever you are looking at, or what way you are looking at it, I really don't know!
But this vendetta against gags, is pointless!
How old are you? If I may ask, if you are young, then I am assuming you just don't know much about gags, if you are older, then bad experiences may be linked to it!

I don't see what's the difficulty in understanding here. As long as the nose is clear a gag will choke you iff it goes down your throat. It's as simple as that. Both the nose and mouth lead to the same windpipe. If you block the throat you'd choke just like a person choking on food. if the throat is clear air would just pass through the nose. You only ever really need mouth breathing when you're fatigued and catching your breath after physical activity. Since you ARE in control of your own actions, you wouldn't be struggling insanely until you can barely breathe, and even then I don't believe you would die of asphyxiation.

Perhaps if you can post an example of what you're referring to, we can better address your concern?

Seriously? This topic is this long. So much clear explanation has been given and the OP still doesn't get it. Seems clear to all of us that OP is a mouth breather. Please refer to the diagram below.
Both the nasal cavity and oral cavity are connected by the pharynx. Yes, both! Meaning breathing is done with both the nose and mouth. Of course, breathing can be done either/or so if you don't often breath through your mouth, you then must breath through your nose. The nasal cavity is significantly larger than the oral cavity, despite the smaller opening, is better to breath through. All in all, it is unnecessary to inhale through the mouth. The chief functions of the mouth being a part of the digestive system and vocalization. Vocalization is achieved by vibrations of the vocal cords when you exhale. So the mouth is completely necessary to exhale from if you are speaking. While gagged, vocalization is not halted, instead, it is muffled. Even if the mouth is sealed, vocalization can be achieved but just barely. Exhaled air can just stored in the oral cavity and then exited through the nasal cavity. However, this form of vocalization is completely useless as it is nearly inaudible.
I hope that clears things up. If you still disagree OP, then you are a difficult and illogical person who can not except being wrong even when clear facts are presented to you.
