Arkansas Asphyxiation

Jjerking off outdoors while using an electrical chord and a tree to choke yourself. It feels so good you yell “woo pig sooie!!!” Local hunter thinks he heard a wild razorback immediately fires one in your head from behind.
My condolences I heard your grandpa died of Arkansas Asphyxiation. Thank you, but we were a little disappointed the coroner ruled it a suicide.
