In movies and TV, people strangle other people until they go unconscious and then they’re dead forever…But that’s not realistic is it?

I think your brain needs to be without blood or oxygen for a few minutes in order to actually die. I could be wrong.

You are correct.

I do jiu jitsu regularly. I’ve been choked unconscious many times. I’ve choked people unconscious many times. You like go after a couple seconds and they wake right up and think they’re in the moment that they went out.

to my knowledge no long-term damage has been recorded from a short wind or blood choke.

To kill someone you have to strangle them to the point that no oxygen can make it to the brain or heart. That indeed takes several minutes
