Autoerotic asphyxiation is the act of intentionally cutting off blood supply to the brain in order to intensify sexual satisfaction or climax. Autoerotic asphyxiation is incredibly dangerous and can result in death.Nerve.com: The Science of Sex: Breathless (October 31, 2000)
Autoerotic asphyxiation is quite similar to the choking game that many youths partake in. However, autoerotic asphyxiation is done by the individual for sexual purposes versus for the high alone that is achieved through the choking game.
