Real Special Ops forces are more likely to use knives, garrotes, or silenced firearms for the purpose. If your neck in broken around the level of C2 or C1 in laymens terms it will damage the area that controls your breathing and heart rate. What happens is you stop breathing immediately and die shortly after. On a real world note I treated a man with a broken neck from a car accident at the level C6.
He was incapacitated and his breathing was severely compromised. His skin color was ashen bad and his belly looked like a giant blob moving awkwardly with little chest movement.
If left alone how he was he probably would of died with in twenty minutes from respiratory failure. He could no longer breathe effectively on his own. The movie based move would probably not be reliable as pointed out. The chokehold is incredible I have actually been victim to this once and I was unconscious in about 8 seconds. My only reaction was to grab the arms around my neck which did not work. It's better to jerk it forward or backward quickly than to twist it, but it's certainly possible.
What you're going for is a cervical dislocation. Mokele mentioned this recently as a way to quickly and painlessly kill lab mice.
It's doubly bad in the neck, where you have two large arteries running parallel to the centra on each side, enclosed by bone rings. Theoretically, a strong enough twist could sever those as well. Pulling on the tail is part of cervical dislocation - restrain the animal by pressure on the neck and pull backwards via the tail. Mokele: So basically you're saying that the axis of rotation on the vertebra the point they pivot around is not where the spinal cord runs through, making the vertebra pinch the cord when they are rotated too far?
Make a circle with the thumb and middle finger of each hand. Stack your hands on top of each other, with your wrists on top of each other and the holds aligned this may be a bit uncomfortable. Now bend one hand at the wrist. That makes sense. That's sort of what I was envisioning, but none of the diagrams made sense. From that diagram, would the Spinous process normally bump into the one of the protrusions on the vertebrae below it, preventing it from turning past that point?
Ie, breaking someone's neck would require either breaking one of the bone protrusions, or separating two vertebrae? I don't think you could apply enough force, nor do so quickly enough, for this to really ever cause cervical dislocation. As I understand it, it's more about air bubbles popping.
When I was prepping for my black belt test, my neck, back, and shoulders got worked out very heavily, and my neck would pop all of the time. Mr Skeptic - I'm not really sure, but I postulate that the bone would not need to break or separate to pinch or sever the spinal cord. It could likely do it while remaining intact, just at a lower order of probability. One way or the other, I'm confident that Mokele or ecoli are better suited to address the particulars.
I'm new here and just saw this topic. I am a Radiographer who takes X-rays and CT scans for a living, so I might be able to add to this discussion. I've seen this literally thousands of times from car accidents, sporting injuries, diving accidents and othe mechanisms of force.
I presume that given enough force, the cervical spine would be susceptible to injury from someone twisting the neck forcefully. The neck is stabilised by a number of ligaments that run between the vertebral bodies and between various other parts such as the facet joints.
However, if these limits ar exceeded by force, the ligaments can tear and the bones forming the joints can break as well. The cervical spine can then move and damage the cervical spinal cord.
My whole way to the hospital, I was kind of talking myself out of it being a stroke. Hader said he was transported to Mercy Hospital where he remained in the intensive care unit for several days before being released to a rehabilitation center. I did all the worrying that he was going to die. Not only did Hader survive, but with help from physical therapy, he was on his feet and walking within a matter of weeks.
Hader said that although he didn't lose any cognitive or speech abilities, he still has balance issues, difficulty controlling his left arm, and a lack of sensation in his right arm and leg, among other lingering symptoms. The vertebral arteries in the neck join in the brain to become the basilar artery, which serves the critical role of supplying blood to the brain stem, Nakagawa said.
If a tear in the vertebral artery impacts the basilar artery, Nakagawa said the stroke can be fatal, cause a coma or leave a person in a permanent vegetative state. In , year-old model Katie May died from a stroke after going to the chiropractor for a pinched nerve in her neck, CBS News reported.
An autopsy found that May's vertebral artery tore as a result of a "neck manipulation," according to HuffPost. Hader said he only found out how dire his situation could have been after visiting a vascular specialist a few weeks ago.
