When a character is suspended by a noose or knot tied around their necks with the intention of that character dying. Was once one of the most common ways to conduct a Public Execution and remains a primary method of capital punishment in countries and regions across the world. In such cases, hanging can lead to Dead Guy on Display if the body is not immediately taken down or is intentionally left up to Make an Example of Them and possibly dishonor the deceased. This form of public execution is still a genre staple in The Western and in Pirate Stories due to its historical use in both settings and is a favorite of the Hanging Judge. Hanging is also a common way people choose to take their own life in real life and is a very popular way to have a character commit suicide. According to The Other Wiki, it was the most prevalent way to commit suicide in pre-industrial societies given its relative simplicity and as late as 2008 was still the most widely used method of suicide globally. Ideas regarding the shamefulness of this method vary from place to place and over time, with some civilizations—like those of ancient Rome—refusing to bury those who do such an act and others believing that this method more than others will allow one's spirit to linger and haunt the living, thus carving out a justifiable reason to do so. This latter belief has been found to be prevalent in traditional Chinese culture. If the fall doesn't immediately break their neck, the victim of a hanging may respond by Clawing At Their Own Throat to try to relieve the pressure before succumbing to unconsciousness or death. If they're lucky, someone might come save them by shooting the rope, cutting them down, or loosening the noose around their necks. If they're The Man They Couldn't Hang, then they may ask The Executioner when they'll be done. Can also be used as a form of torture, using the noose to cut off a victim's air supply since contrary to popular depictions of Choke Holds, it takes several minutes for a suffocating person to pass out, let alone die. Because it does not require mutilation or drawing blood, hanging as torture can be used as a Jack Bauer Interrogation Technique with The Hero using the minutes it takes before the victim blacks out to get the information they need. That said, when done professionally, hangings usually lead to death by Neck Snap and not just asphyxiation. See also Noose Catch, a more ambiguous way to have a (usually) villainous character hanged without making The Hero directly culpable, heavily associated with Disney Death. Note that the "gallows" in Gallows Humor refers to the wooden frame used to hang people from and it is still quite common to see creators make use of Gallows Humor in scenes between characters awaiting their own hangings. If someone's hanging themself/being hung not for the purpose of killing them, but for sexual gratification, then you got a case of Erotic Asphyxiation (and examples should be listed there). If however that person ends up dying by accident, then both tropes would apply. Do not confuse this with Unwilling Suspension where a victim is simply hanging helplessly around either by their wrists, torso, or ankles. As this is a Death Trope, unmarked spoilers abound. Beware. |

The Simpsons: As part of the running gag of chronically depressed Moe Szyslak, he hangs himself to try to kill himself several times and it's always Played for Laughs: In "We're on the Road to D'ohwhere," he relates how he tried to hang himself, but the rope broke. So he sued the rope manufacturer, who gave him a huge cash settlement... and a new rope, which is already tied into a noose. In "Simpsons Christmas Stories," Moe makes three consecutive attempts: he hangs himself with a popcorn string that snaps under his weight, rides a sleigh into heavy traffic only for every single vehicle to miss him, and shoots himself in the ear, only for the gun to send a "Merry Christmas" flag out the other ear. Moe apparently succeeds in hanging himself once in a Treehouse of Horror special. Unfortunately, Homer had just killed the Grim Reaper so no one could die and Moe's left hanging there. "If I had known it would've taken this long, I would've put on the TV". Homer's attempts to kill himself by hanging in "No Loan Again, Naturally," but the tree gives way, sparing Homer and wrecking his car. |

Featured as is par for the genre in both Red Dead Redemption and its prequel, Red Dead Redemption 2 as part of missions and as random encounters, in which players must save a hanging victim from outlaws before they meet their fate. In the first game, there's a mission in which John Marston has to save Bonnie MacFarlane from being hanged by the Williamson gang. In the second game, several missions include a hanging, most notably, the player character is introduced to Micah Bell by saving him from prison where he awaits hanging. A later mission sees rival gang leader Colm O'Driscoll set to publicly hang and you are tasked with preventing O'Driscoll gang members from interfering. |

The short story Hangman from the 4-issue anthology series, Classic Singapore Horror Stories revolves around a sadistic prison warden who gets promoted to becoming a hangman in Singapore's Changi Prison, where he delights in watching prisoners getting their necks stretched, and even playfully ordered his lackey to take a picture of him posing with the noose—which was used to hang another prisoner barely 48 hours ago—just for fun. That proves to be his undoing when the trapdoor under the noose he's posing with suddenly breaks, and he ends up hanging himself in an Ironic Death moment. | |

In The Ridiculous 6, in order to serve as a distraction for his brothers' robbing of a bank, Lil' Pete Stockburn is sentenced to hanging for shoving his face into the sheriff's wife's cleavage, feeling all giddy at the gallows. As the trap door opens and he's suspended, he briefly starts choking and dangling around... only to laugh in the audience's face and start fooling around by swinging on the rope, not dying as a result of his strong muscles. As a result, the sheriff and others try to shoot him, but his brother Tommy manages to cut the rope with a knife toss and the other brothers drag him by the cut end across the prairie. | |

In WrestleMania XV, after winning the Streak, The Undertaker proceeded to hang Big Boss Man from the Hell in a Cell structure. Of course, this was mitigated as an illusion, because Big Boss Man had worn a safety bungee harness underneath his suit when he was attached to a long harness cord disguised as a noose; and he had to be taken down off-camera so that he could get to a hospital on a stretcher. The next time he returned no worse for wear, he became known as The Man Taker Couldn't Hang. | |

Discworld: In Feet of Clay, there's a gallows in Ankh-Morpork which used to have a body hanging on it permenantly as a warning to others, but now has a wooden one instead. Kids invited to consider the terrible end to a life of crime mostly use it as a swing instead. Public execution does still happen in Ankh, and happens to Moist von Lipwig at the start of Going Postal. He's very surprised to wake up in the Patrician's office, but apparently the executioner is very good at nearly hanging people Lord Vetinari considers could be ... useful. |

The Odyssey has the oldest recorded example of hanging as a form of execution in the part of the poem in which Odysseus returns home and is met with all of the suitors who have tried to woo his wife in his absence. He slaughters all of them and then punishes the 12 maids who slept with them, first by forcing them to clear away the suitors' dead bodies, then by ordering his son to take them behind the shed and stab them dead. However the son, having suffered abuse from the maids, decides stabbing is too good for them: Instead, he hangs them all from one rope. | |

One Piece: The 4Kids dub claims this was how Gold Roger was executed (in the original, depending on whether you want to with the manga or anime, he was either beheaded or double-impaled). The original does suggest, in Jango's cover arc. that hanging is also a perfectly standard penalty for pirates. | |

"An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge" is an 1890 short story by Ambrose Bierce which was also adapted as an episode of The Twilight Zone (1959). It is told from the perspective of a plantation owner and Confederate sympathizer during the American Civil War who is about to be hanged by Union soldiers from a bridge. Separated into 3 parts, the first focuses on the lead-up to the hanging, the second shows How We Got Here, and the third details his escape from death because the rope snaps. The infamous Twist Ending reveals however that the rope didn't break and he's been Dead All Along since the end of the first part of the story. | |

Walker, Texas Ranger: A common form of execution during the days of the titular Ranger's ancestor, the legendary Texas Ranger Hays Cooper, but most of the time in the series, used by the villains against their victims, but in one episode, one villain killed himself this way before he could be arrested. In Season 3's "War Zone", the dispatcher of Prevent Armored, Clete Gibson, is killed this way by the main villain, Mitch Bolton, who was responsible for the murder of a close friend and former partner of Walker's. Walker and Trivette find his corpse while searching his home, but after they cut him down, they find out too late the noose was booby-trapped with a bomb, having been rigged with a fishing line connected to a Self-Destruct Mechanism that would go off in approximately 10 seconds, destroying the house and everything in it. Walker and Trivette barely escaped. In Season 4's "The Lynching", a mentally-impaired young man named Jonah Nelson (played by Eric Bruskotter) is almost subjected to this a few times from his angry neighbors when he is framed of killing and robbing Wilma Casey, whom he had been living with at the time and was very well-known in her town, and it eventually comes to the point they start a House Fire with him inside along with Walker and the sheriff. The real culprit turns out to be his Evil Uncle, Earl, and after Walker shames the entire town for almost killing an innocent man, they were all forced to apologize to him. Moreover, Casey left everything to Jonah after she was killed. Two serial killers in the series had this as their Calling Card: Adam "The Hangman" Quinn in "Hall of Fame" (the 4th Season Finale) and Dirk Morgan from "Code of the West" (Season 7). The former, living well up to his name, was an old nemesis of C.D.'s, which ultimately retired him, having never been caught because he checked himself into a clinic, but that failed just as CD was about to be inducted in the Texas Ranger Hall of Fame, and he went right back to his killings, where he is eventually shot dead by CD in a final showdown. The latter was an extremely dangerous convict who had recently escaped from prison and went on a deadly spree of killings against those who put them away, with the retired judge-turned-author who runs a ranch for the children of convicted felons so they don't follow in their parents' footsteps at the end of his list. Mentioned in the show entry above, a villain used this method to kill himself before Walker could arrest him, and the episode where it occurred was Season 9's "Deadly Situation". The villain in question was Lieutenant Shell, a leading detective for the Sage City, Texas, Police Department who was one of the masterminds of a drug ring conducted by Chick Winslow, having framed rookie officer and aspiring Texas Ranger Glenn Cooper (a descendant of Hays Cooper and a distant cousin of Walker's) for the theft of 300 kilos of cocaine from a recent drug bust. After Glenn busted three of his own, Detectives Baker Moody and Rogers, for stealing the cocaine from that particular bust the night before, he gave Shell the original copies of the evidence, but Shell destroyed it all instead of turning it in to Internal Affairs and planted the stolen coke in Glenn's locker, at which point the three busted detectives set out to silence Glenn for good. Glenn doesn't realize the truth until near the end of the episode after Baker, Moody and Rogers are arrested by Gage and Sydney, who retrieved the second set of prints he hid at a library before they could. While Trivette, Gage and Sydney then go on to arrest Winslow, Shell is cornered at his home by Walker and his boss, Captain Ryder, who open his front door to find his corpse hanging from a makeshift noose. "Blood Diamonds" (also in Season 9) had Trivette assuming the identity of an African diamond smuggler (killed by a pimp during a one-night stand with a prostitute named Sparkle, and also later revealed to have been a carrier of an extremely deadly variant of Ebola virus) in order for him and Walker to try to trick Victor Drake, a deadly arms dealer, into a trap. Somehow, Drake caught on to the two Rangers' cover, and subjects Trivette to this fate before mortally wounding Walker. Walker, while being chased by Drake through the building after this while he has the recovered diamonds in hand, recounts everything that happened in the episode in flashbacks before he gets gunned down by Drake after tossing the diamonds off the roof. Afterwards, the entire episode was luckily all just a terrifying nightmare Alex was having, but it may come to pass anyway since Walker and Trivette are on the case from that nightmare. |

It fails and instead he's strangled, which kicks in his survival reflexes and he tries to save himself. Then the branch breaks. He is found unconscious by his elderly neighbor, who gives him mouth on mouth resuscitation till an ambulance arrives. In the end, Peterson ends up in a coma from which he is unlikely to recover. | |

The Porky Pig cartoon "Porky's Romance" sees Porky, distraught over being cruelly rejected by his selfish love Petunia, hanging himself on a tree branch in one of the sadder scenes to be found in a Looney Tunes cartoon. Of course, this being Looney Tunes, Mood Whiplash comes into play when the branch snaps off under his weight. Another example involving Porky is in the cartoon “Claws For Alarm�. As he and his cat Sylvester are staying in a hotel, several murderous mice make concerted efforts to kill the oblivious Porky while Sylvester works to save his life, only to have his warnings be brushed off. Two of these attempts involve nooses: the first at the front desk- Sylvester pushes Porky out of the way before the rope can ensnare his neck- and the second in their bedroom- this time, the rope fastens around Porky’s neck while he’s sleeping, but Sylvester manages to cut the rope before he can be lifted out of the bed, only for Porky to wake up to find Sylvester holding the rope (still digging into his throat somewhat) and the razor he’d cut it with and come to the wrong conclusion. |

Skeeve nonetheless thinks Aahz sacrificed himself for him, leading to a distraught moment. | |

A Song of Ice and Fire: This is a standard form of execution in Westeros and it's not unusual for characters to stumble upon the bodies of hanged men and women. The most notable case involves a resurrected Catelyn Stark having several members of House Frey hanged as revenge for carrying out a massacre in which her son was murdered. The epilogue of the third book is written from the perspective of one of her victims as he's being killed. Hanging is also considered a method of execution for commoners, whereas nobles are beheaded. When Janos Slynt plans to have Ned Stark's bastard son Jon Snow executed for treason, he contemptuously notes that being beheaded is too good for a bastard like Jon, and Jon can hang. In what could be considered an ironic twist, when Jon becomes Lord Commander, he considers hanging Janos for insubordination but opts to behead him instead. |

Hang 'Em High: A 1968 Western classic starring Clint Eastwood. The film starts with Jed Cooper being lynched by a group of 9 vigilantes due to a wrongful accusation of murder. He survives it and is given the chance to bring the men to justice. Judge Fenton is a Hanging Judge who lives up to the name and is used as a contrast to Jed who ultimately seeks leniency for some of the vigilantes, despite having every reason not to. Captain Wilson expecting the worst when Jed finally has him cornered, decides to hang himself instead of facing him. The man that framed Jed gets hanged for the exact crime he tried to pin on Jed. |

Pirates of the Carribbean: The Legend of Jack Sparrow begins with Jack and Will raiding a Panamanian fort, only to be double-crossed and left behind to be arrested. As they face the gallows, Jack requests to be allowed to tell the crowd about his adventures, and you spend the rest of the game playing through his exaggerated or fabricated adventures until the final level when the execution is finally about to be carried out. When Will complains that Jack's story was just a huge waste of time, Jack replies that was the idea just as Elizabeth saves them in the nick of time and the Black Pearl attacks the fort. | |

Forever: In the flashback of "Diamonds Are Forever" Henry is transferred from Charing Cross Asylum (where his wife sent him when he told her he was immortal) to Southwark Prison, and his new cellmate, a priest, not only believes Henry's tale of immortality, but helps him escape by hanging himself. The ceiling is too low for a proper neck-breaking drop, but the priest calculates that if Henry drops with both their weights instead of only his own, it should snap his neck quickly and cleanly instead of a slow, agonizing death by choking. He's right, and we see the shadow of Henry hanging from the noose for only a few seconds, then a flash of light, and then the shadow of the noose swinging empty. | |

In the third book of The Hunger Games tetralogy, Mockingjay, Katniss recalls a somber folk song her father used to sing called "The Hanging Tree" in which a hanged murderer calls out to his loved one to either flee or join him, depending on your interpretation. Later became an actual song due to The Film of the Book, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay, and the song's dance remix charted on the Billboard Hot 100, hitting number one on several charts outside of the US. | |

At the end of The Beggar's Opera, Macheath now finds that four more pregnant women each claim him as their husband. He declares that he is ready to be hanged. The narrator (the Beggar), notes that although in a properly moral ending Macheath and the other villains would be hanged, the audience demands a happy ending, and so Macheath is reprieved, and all are invited to a dance of celebration, to celebrate his wedding to Polly. Some stagings, however, have the Beggar making his pronouncement about the need for a happy ending and totally failing to notice Macheath actually being hanged in the background. | |

In Ace Attorney, hanging is the method of execution used for those convicted of murder and sentenced to death. The first culprit of Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Trials and Tribulations is hanged for murder, and according to Dahlia herself when being channeled, it wasn't a pleasant way to go. In Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Justice For All, Celeste Inpax committed suicide by hanging. In The Great Ace Attorney, hanging is the standard method of execution in Great Britain. |

In Twice Upon a Time, Scuzzbopper tries to hang himself after Botch throws out his manuscript for "the Great A-Murk-ian Novel". Our heroes find his still-alive body hanging from the rafters in the basement of the Murkworks, and he and Flora banter for a bit about how Scuzzy was always sensitive to criticism before Rod Rescueman gets him down. | |

Assassin's Creed: The intro to Assassin's Creed has Altaïr kill a Templar during a public hanging (interestingly, he doesn't stop the hanging; his only goal is to kill the Templar). In Assassin's Creed II, Ezio is forced to watch his father and brothers be hanged in public on trumped-up charges. In the intro for Assassin's Creed: Revelations, Ezio has to escape being hanged himself. In Assassin's Creed III, Connor is sent to the gallows after being framed for an assassination attempt on George Washington. Fortunately, one of his allies is on hand to spring him from the noose so he can go after the man who framed him. |
