There are 2 types if chokes: blood choke and air choke.
Blood choke stops blood flow from the heart to the brain by compressing the carotid arteries. No blood equals no brain activity and lights out. This can happen in seconds and you can’t even feel it if done correctly.
Air choke stops the air flow through the throat completely. This is extremely painful and can take more than a minute to make you pass out from lack of oxygen.
