The neck has the Jugular Vein which is responsible for being blood from your heart to your brain. You can also feel your pulse there. There is a lot of pressure and blood flow moving through that vein. That’s why it come out like a hose as you put it.

If I’m wrong, someone please correct me. I’m not a doctor
